4Man is like a breath; his days are like a fleeting shadow.


In Context

1 Praise be to the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.

2 He is my loving God and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me.

3 O Lord , what is man that you care for him, the son of man that you think of him?

4 Man is like a breath; his days are like a fleeting shadow.

5 Part your heavens, O Lord , and come down; touch the mountains, so that they smoke.

6 Send forth lightning and scatter the enemies; shoot your arrows and rout them.
