Thematic Bible: In man


Thematic Bible




When Ephraim saw his sickness,
And Judah his wound,
Then Ephraim went to Assyria
And sent to King Jareb.
But he is unable to heal you,
Or to cure you of your wound.

So Ephraim has become like a silly dove, without sense;
They call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.

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. His spirit departs, he returns to the earth; In that very day his thoughts perish.
