8 Save me from all my sins,and don't let fools laugh at me.
9 I will keep quiet, I will not say a word,for you are the one who made me suffer like this.
10 Don't punish me any more!I am about to die from your blows.
11 You punish our sins by your rebukes,and like a moth you destroy what we love.Indeed we are no more than a puff of wind!
12 Hear my prayer, Lord,and listen to my cry;come to my aid when I weep.Like all my ancestorsI am only your guest for a little while.
13 Leave me alone so that I may have some happinessbefore I go away and am no more.
