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 is altogether vanity. Selah.

⁴ Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.

27 Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.

¹⁴ Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
