The vanity of life.

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

5"LORD, let me know my end, and what is the measure of my days; let me know how fleeting my life is!

6Behold, thou hast made my days a few handbreadths, and my lifetime is as nothing in thy sight. Surely every man stands as a mere breath! [Selah]
