Psalm 144:3-5
Contemporary English Version

3 (A) Why do we humans mean anything
to you, our Lord?
    Why do you care about us?
4 We disappear like a breath;
we last no longer
    than a faint shadow.

5 Open the heavens like a curtain
    and come down, Lord.
Touch the mountains
    and make them send up smoke.
