1 To the chief music-maker. Of Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David. I said, I will give attention to my ways, so that my tongue may do no wrong; I will keep my mouth under control, while the sinner is before me.
1 For the Chief Musician. For Jeduthun. A Psalm by David. I said, “I will watch my ways, so that I don’t sin with my tongue. I will keep my mouth with a bridle while the wicked is before me.”
2 I made no sound, I said no word, even of good; and I was moved with sorrow.
2 I was mute with silence. I held my peace, even from good. My sorrow was stirred.
3 My heart was burning in my breast; while I was deep in thought the fire was lighted; then I said with my tongue,
3 My heart was hot within me. While I meditated, the fire burned. I spoke with my tongue:
4 Lord, give me knowledge of my end, and of the measure of my days, so that I may see how feeble I am.
4 “Yahweh, show me my end, what is the measure of my days. Let me know how frail I am.
5 You have made my days no longer than a hand's measure; and my years are nothing in your eyes; truly, every man is but a breath. (Selah.)
5 Behold, you have made my days hand widths. My lifetime is as nothing before you. Surely every man stands as a breath.” Selah.
6 Truly, every man goes on his way like an image; he is troubled for no purpose: he makes a great store of wealth, and has no knowledge of who will get it.
6 “Surely every man walks like a shadow. Surely they busy themselves in vain. He heaps up, and doesn’t know who shall gather.
7 And now, Lord, what am I waiting for? my hope is in you.
7 Now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in you.
8 Make me free from all my sins; do not let me be shamed by the man of evil behaviour.
8 Deliver me from all my transgressions. Don’t make me the reproach of the foolish.
9 I was quiet, and kept my mouth shut; because you had done it.
9 I was mute. I didn’t open my mouth, because you did it.
10 No longer let your hand be hard on me; I am wasted by the blows of your hand.
10 Remove your scourge away from me. I am overcome by the blow of your hand.
11 By the weight of your wrath against man's sin, the glory of his form is wasted away; truly every man is but a breath. (Selah.)
11 When you rebuke and correct man for iniquity, you consume his wealth like a moth. Surely every man is but a breath.” Selah.
12 Let my prayer come to your ears, O Lord, and give attention to my cry, make an answer to my weeping: for my time here is short before you, and in a little time I will be gone, like all my fathers.
12 “Hear my prayer, Yahweh, and give ear to my cry. Don’t be silent at my tears. For I am a stranger with you, a foreigner, as all my fathers were.
13 Let your wrath be turned away from me, so that I may be comforted, before I go away from here, and become nothing.
13 Oh spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go away and exist no more.”

  1. Comentario Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm XXXVIII)

    What doth this recollection of the Sabbath mean? What is this Sabbath? For it is with groaning that he "calls it to recollection." You have both heard already when the Psalm was read, and you will now hear it when we shall go over it, how great is his groaning, his mourning, his tears, his misery.

    … feed upon me; nor shall thou convert me, like the food of thy flesh, into thee, but thou shall be converted into me." And I learned that Thou for iniquity dost correct man, and Thou dost make my soul to consume away like a spider. And I said, "Is Truth, therefore, nothing because it is neither diffused through space, finite, …
