10 Bible Verses about The Shortness Of Time

So teach us to number our days,
That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.

For what vanity You have created all the sons of men!

For this reason, rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time.”

“Why was there no man when I came?
When I called, why was there none to answer?

Or have I no power to deliver?

Their fish stink for lack of water
And die of thirst.

And he said to me, “These words are faithful and true”; and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to show to His bond-servants the things which must soon take place.

That it cannot save;
Nor is His ear so dull
That it cannot hear.

And He said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Truly I say to you, not one stone here will be left upon another, which will not be torn down.”

And all its glory like the flower of grass.
The grass withers,
And the flower falls off,

Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.
