Isaiah 2:22

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?

Men of low degree are only vanity and men of rank are a lie;
In the balances they go up;
They are together lighter than breath.

Do not trust in princes,

In mortal man, in whom there is no salvation.

Thus says the Lord,
“Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind
And makes flesh his strength,
And whose heart turns away from the Lord.

Then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

of all that was on the dry land, all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, died.

For as long as life is in me,
And the

breath of God is in my nostrils,

So that my soul would choose suffocation,
Death rather than my pains.

What is man that You take thought of him,

And the son of man that You care for him?

O Lord, what is man, that You take knowledge of him?
Or the son of man, that You think of him?

So that my soul would choose suffocation,
Death rather than my pains.

What is man that You take thought of him,

And the son of man that You care for him?

O Lord, what is man, that You take knowledge of him?
Or the son of man, that You think of him?
