O LORD, make me know my end

O LORD, make me know my end and what is the measure of my days; let me know how fleeting (短暫的) I am! 5Behold, you have made my days a few handbreadths(一手之寬), and my lifetime(一生) is as nothing before you. Surely all mankind stands as a mere breath! 6Surely a man goes about as a shadow! Surely for nothing they are in turmoil(混亂); man heaps up(堆放) wealth (財富) and does not know who will gather!耶和華啊,求你叫我曉得我身之終!我的壽數幾何?叫我知道我的生命不長!你使我的年日窄如手掌;我一生的年數,在你面前如同無有。各人最穩妥的時候,真是全然虛幻。世人行動實係幻影。他們忙亂,真是枉然;積蓄財寶,不知將來有誰收取。

7“And now, O Lord, for what do I wait? My hope is in you.
主啊,如今我等什麼呢?我的指望在乎你!(詩篇39, 4-7節)

All men are vanity before God, and the only hope is in God.
