5  Since his days are determined,

and the ^mnumber of his months is with you,

and you have appointed his limits that he cannot pass,

21  For what do they care for their houses after them,

when the ^vnumber of their months is cut off?

4  “O Lord, ^qmake me know my end

and what is the measure of my days;

let me know how fleeting I am!

12  So ^xteach us to number our days

that we may get a heart of wisdom.
