33:6 By the Lord’s decree the heavens were made;
by a mere word from his mouth all the stars in the sky were created.
39:6 Surely people go through life as mere ghosts.
Surely they accumulate worthless wealth
without knowing who will eventually haul it away.”
39:11 You severely discipline people for their sins;
like a moth you slowly devour their strength.
Surely all people are a mere vapor. (Selah)
56:4 In God – I boast in his promise –
in God I trust, I am not afraid.
What can mere men do to me?
62:9 Men are nothing but a mere breath;
human beings are unreliable.
When they are weighed in the scales,
all of them together are lighter than air.
