4 Let me know, O Yahweh, mine end, And the measure of my dayswhat it is, I would know how short-lived I am.
5 Lo! as hand-breadths, hast thou granted my days, and my life-time, is as nothing before thee,Surely, a mere breath, are all men, such as stand firm. Selah.
6 Surely as a shadow, doth every man wander, Surely in vain, do they bustle about, he heapeth things up, and knoweth not who shall gather them in.
