Psalm 39:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 When thou with rebukes dost chastise man for iniquity, thou as a moth [a]makest his [b]beauty to consume: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
12 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and hearken unto my cry: keep not silence at my tears, for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner as all my fathers.
13 Stay thine anger from me, that I may recover my strength, [c]before I go hence and be not.
