'Puff' in the Bible

“Remember that my life is but breath [a puff of wind, a sigh];My eye will not see good again.

Yet you do not know [the least thing] about what may happen in your life tomorrow. [What is secure in your life?] You are merely a vapor [like a puff of smoke or a wisp of steam from a cooking pot] that is visible for a little while and then vanishes [into thin air].
