- Ps 39:4-7 : 4 LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know{H8799)} how frail I am. 5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state{H8737)} is altogether vanity. Selah. 6 Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted{H8799)} in vain: he heapeth up{H8799)} riches, and knoweth{H8799)} not who shall gather{H8802)} them. 7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.

For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. 15 For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. 16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.
