American Standard Version
"Man is like to vanity: His days are as a shadow that passeth away. "
— Psalms 144:4, American Standard Version
“Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.”
“Man is like a breath. His days are like a shadow that passes away.”
“People are like a vapor, their days like a shadow that disappears.”
“Generation and generation shall praise thy works: and they shall declare thy power.”
“Man is like a breath: his life is like a shade which is quickly gone.”
“Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.”
Blessed be Jehovah my rock, Who teacheth my hands to war, Andmy fingers to fight:
My lovingkindness, and my fortress, My high tower, and my deliverer; My shield, and he in whom I take refuge; Who subdueth my people under me.
Jehovah, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that thou makest account of him?
Man is like to vanity: His days are as a shadow that passeth away.
Bow thy heavens, O Jehovah, and come down: Touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; Send out thine arrows, and discomfit them.
Stretch forth thy hand from above; Rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, Out of the hand of aliens;
