^4 (A)One thing have I asked of the Lord,
    that will I seek after:
that I may ^(B)dwell in the house of the Lord
    all the days of my life,
to gaze upon ^(C)the beauty of the Lord
    and to inquire^[a] in his temple.

⁴ “O Lord, ^(A)make me know my end
    and what is the measure of my days;
    let me know how fleeting I am!
