43. You have also turned back the edge of his sword,and you have not made him stand in battle.
44. You have made his splendor to ceaseand cast his throne to the ground.
45. You have cut short the days of his youth;you have covered him with shame. Selah
46. How long, O Lord? Will you hide yourself forever?How long will your wrath burn like fire?
47. Remember how short my time is!For what vanity you have created all the children of man!
48. What man can live and never see death?Who can deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah
