what is man that you remember him or the son of man that you take care of him? You made him a little lower than god-like ones (God) (Son of God) (angels). You crowned him with glory and honor. (John 1:18) You made him rule what your hands created. You have put everything under his control:

Who is like Jehovah our God? He is seated on his high throne. He bends down (humbles himself) to look at heaven and earth.

Jehovah, what is man, that you notice him or the son of man, that you regard him!

Jehovah, the Holy God of Israel, the one who shapes the future says: You have no right to question me about my children or to tell me what I ought to do!

When God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable character of his purpose, he confirmed it with an oath. God did this to offer encouragement so we may rely on the hope offered to us. We have taken refuge in that hope and it is impossible for God to lie. These two things can never be changed.




When I look at your heavens, the creation of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you have set in place, what is man that you remember him or the son of man that you take care of him?



You see God does not trust his own servants. He accuses his angels of making mistakes. How much more will he accuse those who live in clay houses that have their foundation in the dust? Those houses can be crushed quicker than a moth!

Can a mortal man be of use to God? Can even the wisest be of service to him? Is it any pleasure to the Almighty if you are righteous? Is it profitable to him if you make your ways blameless? Is it for your reverence that he reproves you, and enters into judgment with you? read more.
Is not your wickedness great? There is no end to your iniquities.

How then can a man be righteous before God? How can one born of woman be pure? If even the moon is not bright and the stars are not pure in his eyes, How much less man, who is but a maggot and a worm!

Do you think this to be just? You say: 'I am in the right before God.' If you ask: 'What advantage do I have? How am I better off than if I had sinned?' I will answer you and your friends with you. read more.
Look at the heavens, observe the clouds and see. They are higher than you. If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against him? If your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him? If you are righteous, what do you give to him? What does he receive from your hand? Your wickedness affects others like you, and your righteousness, other human beings.

Have you ever commanded the morning, or shown the dawn its place? It might take the earth by the edges and shake the wicked out of it?

Jehovah, what is man, that you notice him or the son of man, that you regard him! Man is like a mere breath. His days are like a passing shadow.
