I have felt at times that it was best to keep my silence/bridle my tongue before the enemies of God that I not myself display to them a more sinful side of myself that might spill out unintended. By this I intend good but may well carry it too far as if I to be outright deaf and mute to the calling of God. The psalmist here in similar ill is prescribed a dosage of knowing his end, his frailty and the measurement of his days.
