4 Lord, remind me.39:4. The psalmist is not actually asking for information, but protesting that he is suffering when his life is so short. How short is my life? How long do I have? Remind me how quickly my life will pass.
5 Just look at the tiny amount of days you have given me! In your eyes my whole lifetime is like nothing. Our lives here are just a breath… Selah.
6 Human beings are just shadows walking around. They pointlessly rush through life, trying to pile up possessions without knowing who will get them.
