Psalms 39:4

Context

39:4 “O Lord, help me understand my mortality

and the brevity of life! 3 

Let me realize how quickly my life will pass! 4

2 tn Heb “and we will bring a heart of wisdom.” After the imperative of the preceding line, the prefixed verbal form with the conjunction indicates purpose/result. The Hebrew term “heart” here refers to the center of one’s thoughts, volition, and moral character.

3 tn Heb “Cause me to know, O Lord, my end; and the measure of my days, what it is!”

4 tn Heb “Let me know how transient I am!”
