What is man, that you make so much of him, and that you set your heart on him,
It has been testified somewhere, “What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you care for him?
what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?
O Lord, what is man that you regard him, or the son of man that you think of him?
If he should set his heart to it and gather to himself his spirit and his breath, all flesh would perish together, and man would return to dust.
Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that you set a guard over me?
After whom has the king of Israel come out? After whom do you pursue? After a dead dog! After a flea!
