3 LORD, H3068 what is man, H120 that thou takest knowledge H3045 of him! or the son H1121 of man, H582 that thou makest account H2803 of him!

4 Man H120 is like H1819 to vanity: H1892 his days H3117 are as a shadow H6738 that passeth away. H5674

5 Bow H5186 thy heavens, H8064 O LORD, H3068 and come down: H3381 touch H5060 the mountains, H2022 and they shall smoke. H6225

6 Cast forth H1299 lightning, H1300 and scatter H6327 them: shoot out H7971 thine arrows, H2671 and destroy H2000 them.

PSALM 144

Ps 144:1-15. David's praise of God as his all-sufficient help is enhanced by a recognition of the intrinsic worthlessness of man. Confidently imploring God's interposition against his enemies, he breaks forth into praise and joyful anticipations of the prosperity of his kingdom, when freed from vain and wicked men.
