Psalms 39:3 in Context — Psalms 39

1 Al Músico principal, á Jeduthún: Salmo de David. YO DIJE: Atenderé á mis caminos, para no pecar con mi lengua: guardaré mi boca con freno, en tanto que el impío fuere contra mí.

2 Enmudecí con silencio, calléme aun respecto de lo bueno: y excitóse mi dolor.

3 Enardecióse mi corazón dentro de mí; encendióse fuego en mi meditación, [y así] proferí con mi lengua:

4 Hazme saber, Jehová, mi fin, y cuánta sea la medida de mis días; sepa yo cuánto [tengo de ser] del mundo.

5 He aquí diste á mis días término corto, y mi edad es como nada delante de ti: ciertamente es completa vanidad todo hombre que vive. (Selah.)
