⁵ “Behold, You have made ^(A)my days as handbreadths,
And my ^(B)lifetime as nothing in Your sight;
Surely every man ^[a]at his best is ^[b]a mere ^(C)breath. ^[c]Selah.

^4 (A)Man is like a mere breath;
His ^(B)days are like a passing shadow.

² “^[a](A)Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher,
“^[b]Vanity of vanities! All is ^[c]vanity.”
