Mga Awit 39
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Pagtatapat ng Taong Nahihirapan
Katha ni David upang awitin ng Punong Mang-aawit na si Jeduthun.
39 Ang sabi ko sa sarili, sa gawai'y mag-iingat,
at hindi ko hahayaang ang dila ko ay madulas;
upang hindi magkasala, ako'y di magsasalita
habang nakapalibot, silang mga masasama.
2 Ako'y sadyang nanahimik, wala akong sinasabi,
hindi ako nagsalita maging tungkol sa mabuti;
ngunit lalo pang lumubha paghihirap ng sarili.
3 Ako'y lubhang nabahala, nangangamba ang puso ko,
habang aking iniisip, lalo akong nalilito;
nang di ako makatiis, ang sabi ko ay ganito:
4 “Yahweh, sana'y sabihin mo kung kailan mamamatay,
kung gaanong katagal pa kaya ako mabubuhay.”
5 Ang damdam ko sa sarili'y pinaikli mo ang buhay,
sa harap mo ang buhay ko'y parang walang kabuluhan;
ang buhay ng bawat tao'y parang hanging dumaraan. (Selah)[a]
6 Ang buhay ng isang tao'y parang anino nga lamang,
at maging ang gawa niya ay wala ring kasaysayan;
hindi batid ang kukuha ng tinipon niyang yaman!
7 Kung ganoon, Panginoon, nasaan ba ang pag-asa?
Pag-asa ko'y nasa iyo, sa iyo ko nakikita.
8 Kaya ngayo'y iligtas mo, linisin sa aking kasalanan;
ang hangal ay huwag bayaan na ako'y pagtawanan.
9 Tunay akong tatahimik, wala akong sasabihin,
pagkat lahat ng dinanas, pawang dulot mo sa akin.
10 Huwag mo akong parusahan, parusa mo ay itigil;
sa hampas na tinatanggap ang buhay ko'y makikitil.
11 Kung ang tao'y magkasala, ang parusa mo ay galit;
parang isang gamu-gamong pinatay ang iniibig;
tunay na ang isang tao'y hangin lamang ang kaparis! (Selah)[b]
12 Pakinggan mo ako, Yahweh, dinggin ang aking hibik;
sa daing ko't panalangin, huwag ka sanang manahimik.
Sa iyong piling ay dayuhan, ako'y hindi magtatagal,
at tulad ng ninuno ko, sa daigdig ay lilisan.
13 Sa ganitong kalagayan, huwag na akong kagalitan, upang muling makalasap kahit konting kasiyahan,
bago man lang mamayapa't makalimutan ng lahat.
Psalm 39
King James Version
Psalm 39
King James Version
39 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
2 I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
3 My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,
4 Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: that I may know how frail I am.
5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
6 Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.
8 Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.
9 I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.
10 Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
11 When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
12 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
13 O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
Psalm 39

Psalm 39
New King James Version
Prayer for Wisdom and Forgiveness
To the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
39 I said, “I will guard my ways,
Lest I sin with my (A)tongue;
I will restrain my mouth with a muzzle,
While the wicked are before me.”
2 (B)I was mute with silence,
I held my peace even from good;
And my sorrow was stirred up.
3 My heart was hot within me;
While I was [a]musing, the fire burned.
Then I spoke with my tongue:
4 “Lord, (C)make me to know my end,
And what is the measure of my days,
That I may know how frail I am.
5 Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths,
And my age is as nothing before You;
Certainly every man at his best state is but (D)vapor. Selah
6 Surely every man walks about like a shadow;
Surely they [b]busy themselves in vain;
He heaps up riches,
And does not know who will gather them.
7 “And now, Lord, what do I wait for?
My (E)hope is in You.
8 Deliver me from all my transgressions;
Do not make me (F)the reproach of the foolish.
9 (G)I was mute, I did not open my mouth,
Because it was (H)You who did it.
10 (I)Remove Your plague from me;
I am consumed by the blow of Your hand.
11 When with rebukes You correct man for iniquity,
You make his beauty (J)melt away like a moth;
Surely every man is vapor. Selah
12 “Hear my prayer, O Lord,
And give ear to my cry;
Do not be silent at my tears;
For I am a stranger with You,
A sojourner, (K)as all my fathers were.
13 (L)Remove Your gaze from me, that I may regain strength,
Before I go away and (M)am no more.”

Psalm 39
New International Version
Psalm 39[a]
For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David.
1 I said, “I will watch my ways(A)
and keep my tongue from sin;(B)
I will put a muzzle on my mouth(C)
while in the presence of the wicked.”
2 So I remained utterly silent,(D)
not even saying anything good.
But my anguish(E) increased;
3 my heart grew hot(F) within me.
While I meditated,(G) the fire(H) burned;
then I spoke with my tongue:
4 “Show me, Lord, my life’s end
and the number of my days;(I)
let me know how fleeting(J) my life is.(K)
5 You have made my days(L) a mere handbreadth;
the span of my years is as nothing before you.
Everyone is but a breath,(M)
even those who seem secure.[b]
6 “Surely everyone goes around(N) like a mere phantom;(O)
in vain they rush about,(P) heaping up wealth(Q)
without knowing whose it will finally be.(R)
7 “But now, Lord, what do I look for?
My hope is in you.(S)
8 Save me(T) from all my transgressions;(U)
do not make me the scorn(V) of fools.
9 I was silent;(W) I would not open my mouth,(X)
for you are the one who has done this.(Y)
10 Remove your scourge from me;
I am overcome by the blow(Z) of your hand.(AA)
11 When you rebuke(AB) and discipline(AC) anyone for their sin,
you consume(AD) their wealth like a moth(AE)—
surely everyone is but a breath.(AF)
