Psalms 144:3-7

³Lord, what is man, that thou takest cognizance of him: the son of a mortal, that thou regardest him!

⁴Man is like the breath: his days are like a passing shadow.

⁵O Lord, bend thy heavens, and come down: touch the mountains, that they may smoke.

⁶Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: send out thy arrows, and confound them.

⁷Stretch out thy hands from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of the children of the stranger.
