'Short' in the Bible
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Is Jehovah's hand waxed short? now shalt thou see whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not.
That the triumphing of the wicked is short, And the joy of the godless but for a moment?
Oh remember how short my time is: For what vanity hast thou created all the children of men!
for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;
for the Lord will execute his word upon the earth, finishing it and cutting it short.
But we, brethren, being bereaved of you for a short season, in presence not in heart, endeavored the more exceedingly to see your face with great desire:
Let us fear therefore, lest haply, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you should seem to have come short of it.
looking carefully lest there be any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you , and thereby the many be defiled;
Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe for the earth and for the sea: because the devil is gone down unto you, having great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time.
