Psalm 39:9-11

EasyEnglish Bible

⁹ I will not say anything more.
I will not open my mouth,
    because it is you who have punished me!
¹⁰ Please do not hurt me any more!
You have already punished me enough,
    so that I am almost dead!
¹¹ When people do wrong things,
    you warn them and you punish them.
You destroy their valuable things,
    like a moth eats cloth!^[a]
Yes, our lives are only a breath!
Selah.
