Contemporary English Version
Psalm 144:2-4
Contemporary English Version
2 You are my friend, my fortress,
where I am safe.
You are my shield,
and you made me the ruler
of our people.[a]
3 (A) Why do we humans mean anything
to you, our Lord?
Why do you care about us?
4 We disappear like a breath;
we last no longer
than a faint shadow.
