Psalms 38:1-8 (39) For the end, a Song of David, to Idithun. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I set a guard on my mouth, while the sinner stood in my presence.

LXX2012⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ (39) For the end, a Song of David, to Idithun. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I set a guard on my mouth, while the sinner stood in my presence. ² I was dumb, and humbled myself, and kept silence from good [words]; and my grief was renewed. ³ My heart grew hot within me, and a fire would kindle in my meditation: I spoke with my tongue, ⁴ O Lord, make me to know mine end, and the number of my days, what it is; that I may know what I lack. ⁵ Behold, you have made my days old; and my existence [is] as nothing before you: nay, every man living [is] altogether vanity. Pause. ⁶ Surely man walks in a shadow; nay, he is disquieted in vain: he lays up treasures, and knows not for whom he shall gather them. ⁷ And now what [is] my expectation? [is it] not the Lord? and my ground [of hope] is with you. Pause. ⁸ Deliver me from all my transgressions: you have made me a reproach to the foolish.
