3
O Lord, (A)what is man, that You take knowledge of him?
Or the son of man, that You think of him?
4
(B)Man is like a mere breath;
His (C)days are like a passing shadow.
5
(D)Bow Your heavens, O Lord, and (E)come down;
(F)Touch the mountains, that they may smoke.
6
Flash forth (G)lightning and scatter them;
Send out Your (H)arrows and confuse them.
