Thematic Bible: Frailty of


Thematic Bible




Yet David vowed again, saying, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your sight, and he has said, ‘Do not let Jonathan know this, or he will be grieved.’ But truly as the Lord lives and as your soul lives, there is hardly a step between me and death.”


Thus He remembered that they were but flesh,
A wind that passes and does not return.


As when one plows and breaks open the earth,
Our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol.


A voice says, “Call out.”
Then he answered, “What shall I call out?”
All flesh is grass, and all its loveliness is like the flower of the field.
