Remember how short my time is! For what vanity you have created all the children of man!
“Man who is born of a woman is few of days and full of trouble.
Remember that you have made me like clay; and will you return me to the dust?
“Remember that my life is a breath; my eye will never again see good.
yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.
Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.
How long must your servant endure? When will you judge those who persecute me?
How long, O Lord? Will you be angry forever? Will your jealousy burn like fire?
