Context Reading
3My heart was hot within me.While I meditated, the fire burned.I spoke with my tongue: 4“Yahweh, show me my end,what is the measure of my days.Let me know how frail I am. 5Behold, you have made my days hand widths.My lifetime is as nothing before you.Surely every man stands as a breath.” Selah. 6“Surely every man walks like a shadow.Surely they busy themselves in vain.He heaps up, and doesn’t know who shall gather. 7Now, Lord, what do I wait for?My hope is in you.
