Psalm 39:9-11

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁹I am silent; I do not open my mouth,
for it is you who have done it.
¹⁰Remove your stroke from me;
I am worn down by the blows^[a] of your hand.

¹¹‘You chastise mortals
in punishment for sin,
consuming like a moth what is dear to them;
surely everyone is a mere breath.Selah
