3. Jehovah, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him, the son of man, that thou takest thought of him?
4. Man is like to vanity; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
5. Jehovah, bow thy heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, that they smoke;
6. Cast forth lightnings, and scatter them; send forth thine arrows, and discomfit them:
7. Stretch out thy hands from above; rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of aliens,
8. Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9. O God I will sing a new song unto thee; with the ten-stringed lute will I sing psalms unto thee:
10. Who givest salvation unto kings; who rescuest David thy servant from the hurtful sword.
