The vanity of life.

For the Chief Musician, for 62:title ; 77:title ; 1 Chr. 16:41 ; 25:1 . Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

⁵Behold, thou hast made my days [as] handbreadths; And my life-time is as nothing before thee: Surely every man at his best estate is altogether vanity. Selah

⁶Surely every man walketh in a vain show; Surely they are disquieted in vain: He heapeth up [riches], and knoweth not who shall gather them.
