4 Hazme saber, Jehová, mi fin, y cuánta sea la medida de mis días; sepa yo cuánto [tengo de ser] del mundo.
5 He aquí diste á mis días término corto, y mi edad es como nada delante de ti: ciertamente es completa vanidad todo hombre que vive. (Selah.)
6 Ciertamente en tinieblas anda el hombre; ciertamente en vano se inquieta: junta, y no sabe quién lo allegará.
