Job 39:5 "Who gives the wild donkey its freedom? Who untied its ropes? Psalm 39:5 You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand. My entire lifetime is just a moment to you; at best, each of us is but a breath." Interlude Psalm 39:11 When you discipline us for our sins, you consume like a moth what is precious to us. Each of us is but a breath. Interlude Psalm 62:9 Common people are as worthless as a puff of wind, and the powerful are not what they appear to be. If you weigh them on the scales, together they are lighter than a breath of air. Psalm 144:4 For they are like a breath of air; their days are like a passing shadow. Ecclesiastes 1:2 "Everything is meaningless," says the Teacher, "completely meaningless!" Ecclesiastes 11:10 So refuse to worry, and keep your body healthy. But remember that youth, with a whole life before you, is meaningless.
