We are but

My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.

And Jacob said to Pharaoh, The days of the years of my sojourning are a hundred and thirty years. Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they do not attain to the days of the years of the life of my fathers, in the days of their sojourning.

For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no hope of life.

Behold, thou hast made my days as hand-breadths, and my lifetime is as nothing before thee; verily, every man, even the high placed, is altogether vanity. Selah.

For a thousand years, in thy sight, are as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.

My days are like a lengthened-out shadow, and I, I am withered like grass.

Man is like to vanity; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
