Psalm 89:47

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

Remember, Lord, how short a time I shall on earth remain: O wherefore is it so that thou has made all men in vain?

See the chapter Copy

Man is like vanity; his days, as shadows, pass away.

How many are thy servant's days? when wilt thou execute Just judgment on these wicked men that do me persecute?

How long, Lord, shall thine anger last? wilt thou still keep the same? And shall thy fervent jealousy burn like unto a flame?
