Verse 7 is found in chapter 39 of Psalms. Psalm 39 reflects on human frailty and the brevity of life. The initial attempt to control speech before the wicked leads to meditation on existence as brief and transient. Accumulated wealth appears incapable of resolving the human condition. Therefore the prayer ends by asking God to teach the psalmist to number his days and turn away from affliction so that he may regain strength.
