Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passes away.
All Commentaries on Psalms 144:4 Go To Psalms 144
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Vanity. Hebrew hebel, "nothing, a vapour", Ecclesiastes i. 1., and James iv. 15. (Haydock)
Our lives resemble a shadow, which is the less distinct, the more it increases. (Berthier)
As it cannot subsist of itself, so neither can man without God. (Worthington)
