To determine which function has an asymptote at \( x = 39 \), we need to analyze the given functions:

1. **\( f(x) = 7^x - 39 \)**: This function does not have a vertical asymptote at \( x = 39 \). It is an exponential function shifted vertically.

2. **\( f(x) = \log_7(x - 39) \)**: Logarithmic functions have vertical asymptotes where their arguments equal zero. Here, the asymptote occurs when \( x - 39 = 0 \), thus at \( x = 39 \).

3. **\( f(x) = 7^x + 39 \)**: Similar to the first function, this exponential function does not have an asymptote at \( x = 39 \).

4. **\( f(x) = \log_7(x + 39) \)**: This function has a vertical asymptote where \( x + 39 = 0 \), at \( x = -39 \).

From the analysis, the function that has a vertical asymptote at \( x = 39 \) is:

**\( f(x) = \log_7(x - 39) \)**.
