Psalms 39:5-6

39:5 Look, you make my days short-lived,

and my life span is nothing from your perspective.

Surely all people, even those who seem secure, are nothing but vapor.

39:6 Surely people go through life as mere ghosts.

Surely they accumulate worthless wealth

without knowing who will eventually haul it away.”

Psalms 119:84

119:84 How long must your servant endure this?

When will you judge those who pursue me?

Job 7:7

7:7 Remember that my life is but a breath,

that my eyes will never again see happiness.

Job 9:25-26

Renewed Complaint

9:25 “My days are swifter than a runner,

they speed by without seeing happiness.

9:26 They glide by like reed boats,

like an eagle that swoops down on its prey.

Job 10:9

10:9 Remember that you have made me as with the clay;

will you return me to dust?
