David's care of his thoughts.1 ¶ [[To the chief Musician,ºª [even] to Jeduthun,º A Psalmº of David.]]º I said,ºª I will take heedºª to my ways,º that I sin¹ª not²² with my tongue:º I will keepºª my mouthº with a bridle,º while² the wickedº is before² me. 2 I was dumbºª with silence,º I held my peace,ºª [even] from good;º² and my sorrowº was stirred.ºª 3 My heartº was hotºª withinº me, while I was musingº the fireº burned:ºª [then]¹ spakeºª I with my tongue,º [1] 1K 2:4; 2K 10:31; Ps 12:4; 73:8; 119:9; 141:3; Pv 4:26; 18:21; 21:23; Am 5:13; Mi 7:5; Col 4:5; He 2:1; Jm 1:26; 3:2.

The consideration of the brevity and vanity of life,4 LORD,º make me to knowºª mine end,º and the measureº of my days,º what² it² [is; that] I may knowºª how² frailº I² [am]. 5 Behold,² thou hast madeºª my daysº [as] an handbreadth;º and mine ageº [is] as nothing² before² thee: verily² everyº manº at his best stateºª [is] altogetherº vanity.º Selah.º 6 Surely² every manº walkethºª in a vain shew:º surely² they are disquietedºª in vain:º he heapeth upºª [riches], and knowethºª not² who² shall gatherºª them.
