5 Behold, you have made my days hand widths.My lifetime is as nothing before you.Surely every man stands as a breath.” Selah.
6 “Surely every man walks like a shadow.Surely they busy themselves in vain.He heaps up, and doesn’t know who shall gather.
7 Now, Lord, what do I wait for?My hope is in you.
8 Deliver me from all my transgressions.Don’t make me the reproach of the foolish.
9 I was mute.I didn’t open my mouth,because you did it.
10 Remove your scourge away from me.I am overcome by the blow of your hand.
11 When you rebuke and correct man for iniquity,you consume his wealth like a moth.Surely every man is but a breath.” Selah.
