Lord, what is a human that you care for him,
a son of man[a] that you think of him?(A)
A human is like a breath;
his days are like a passing shadow.(B)

Lord, part your heavens and come down.(C)
Touch the mountains, and they will smoke.(D)
Flash your lightning and scatter the foe;[b]
shoot your arrows and rout them.(E)
