5. Behold, thou hast made my days as a handbreadth, and my age is as nothing before thee; verily every man that lives is altogether vanity. Selah.
6. Surely man walks in darkness; surely they are disquieted in vain; they heap up riches not knowing who shall gather them.
7. And now, Lord, what shall I wait for? My hope is in thee.
8. Deliver me from all my rebellions; do not make me the reproach of the foolish.
9. I was dumb, I opened not my mouth because thou didst it.
10. Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
11. When thou with chastening dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his greatness to consume away like a moth; surely every man is vanity. Selah.
