世人如氣息、其日如影迅逝兮、

斯世之人、如氣呼吸、人之生命、如影沉西兮、

世人有如虛幻、其年壽如影易逝、

人生如夢影。歲月同浮雲。浮雲瞬息逝。蹤跡不可尋。

They are like a breath; their days are like a fleeting shadow.

Their lives don’t last any longer than a breath. Their days are like a shadow that quickly disappears.

My days are like a lengthening shadow, and I wither away like grass.

since we were born only yesterday and know nothing. Our days on earth are but a shadow.

I fade away like a lengthening shadow; I am shaken off like a locust.

In fact, you have made my days just inches long, and my life span is as nothing to you. Yes, every human being stands as only a vapor. SelahYes, a person goes about like a mere shadow. Indeed, they rush around in vain, gathering possessions without knowing who will get them.

“ Absolute futility,” says the Teacher.“ Absolute futility. Everything is futile.”

However, it will not go well with the wicked, and they will not lengthen their days like a shadow, for they are not reverent before God.

Anyone born of woman is short of days and full of trouble.He blossoms like a flower, then withers; he flees like a shadow and does not last.Do you really take notice of one like this? Will you bring me into judgment against you?

You discipline a person with punishment for iniquity, consuming like a moth what is precious to him; yes, every human being is only a vapor. Selah

how much more those who dwell in clay houses, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed like a moth!

Remember how short my life is. Have you created everyone for nothing?

As for man, his days are like grass— he blooms like a flower of the field;when the wind passes over it, it vanishes, and its place is no longer known.

I have seen all the things that are done under the sun and have found everything to be futile, a pursuit of the wind.

We will certainly die and be like water poured out on the ground, which can’t be recovered. But God would not take away a life; he would devise plans so that the one banished from him does not remain banished.

“ Absolute futility,” says the Teacher.“ Everything is futile.”

Common people are only a vapor; important people, an illusion. Together on a scale, they weigh less than a vapor.

For we are aliens and temporary residents in your presence as were all our ancestors. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope.
