For what pleasure hath he in his house after him, When the number of his months is cut off in the midst?
Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, Thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: Thy years are throughout all generations.
But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: Bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; But I will trust in thee.
His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; And they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.
His eyes shall see his destruction, And he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.
Shall any teach God knowledge? Seeing he judgeth those that are high.
