                                    9 Men are nothing but a mere breath; human beings are unreliable. When they are weighed in the scales, all of them together are lighter than air.                                

                                    9 Men of (N)low degree are only (O)vanity and men of rank are a (P)lie;In the (Q)balances they go up;They are together lighter than breath.                                

                                    9 Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity.                                

                                    9 Men are only a vapor;exalted men, an illusion.Weighed in the scales, they go up;together they are less than a vapor.(L)                                

                                    9 Human beings are a mere vapor, while people in high positions are not what they appear. When they are placed on the scales, they weigh nothing; even when weighed together, they are less than nothing.
