Psalm 39:6-8

The Voice

⁶ In truth, each of us journeys through life like a shadow.
    We busy ourselves accomplishing nothing, piling up assets we can never keep;
We can’t even know who will end up with those things.

⁷ In light of all this, Lord, what am I really waiting for?
    You are my hope.
⁸ Keep me from all the wrong I would do;
    don’t let the foolish laugh at me.
