For we are resident foreigners and nomads in your presence, like all our ancestors; our days are like a shadow on the earth, without security.

我们在你面前是客旅，是寄居的，与我们列祖一样。我们在世的日子如影儿，不能长存。

我们在你面前是客旅，是寄居的，与我们的列祖一样。我们在世的日子如影子，没有盼望。

我们在你面前只是客旅，是寄居的，像我们祖先一样；我们在世的日子就像影子一样转瞬即逝。

我儕在爾前、為遠人、為羈旅、同於列祖、在世之日如影、無永存之希望、

昔我列祖為賓旅於爾前、我儕亦然、我生命如影、難冀其長存。

我儕在主前如客旅寄居、無異列祖、我在世之日如影、難冀常存、

We are foreigners and strangers in your sight, as were all our ancestors. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope.

We are outsiders and strangers in your sight. So were all of our people who lived long ago. Our days on this earth are like a shadow. We don’t have any hope.

For we are strangers before you and sojourners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are like a shadow, and there is no abiding.

We are here for only a moment, visitors and strangers in the land as our ancestors were before us. Our days on earth are like a passing shadow, gone so soon without a trace.

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.

For we are strangers before You, and temporary residents, as all our fathers were; our days on the earth are like a shadow, and there is no hope.

For we are aliens and pilgrims before You, As were all our fathers; Our days on earth are as a shadow, And without hope.

For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathers were: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no abiding.

For we live before You as foreigners and temporary residents in Your presence as were all our ancestors. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope.

For we[ are] strangers before thee, and sojourners, as[ were] all our fathers: our days on the earth[ are] as a shadow, and[ there is] none abiding.

For we are strangers before you, and foreigners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no remaining.

He grows up like a flower and then withers away; he flees like a shadow, and does not remain.

Hear my prayer, O LORD! Listen to my cry for help! Do not ignore my sobbing! For I am dependent on you, like one residing outside his native land; I am at your mercy, just as all my ancestors were.

My days are coming to an end, and I am withered like grass.

The land must not be sold without reclaim because the land belongs to me, for you are foreigners and residents with me.

Jacob said to Pharaoh,“ All the years of my travels are 130. All the years of my life have been few and painful; the years of my travels are not as long as those of my ancestors.”

For no one knows what is best for a person during his life– during the few days of his fleeting life– for they pass away like a shadow. Nor can anyone tell him what the future will hold for him on earth.

I am like a foreigner in this land. Do not hide your commands from me!

Yes, throughout all our days we experience your raging fury; the years of our lives pass quickly, like a sigh.

Dear friends, I urge you as foreigners and exiles to keep away from fleshly desires that do battle against the soul,

A voice says,“ Cry out!” Another asks,“ What should I cry out?” The first voice responds:“ All people are like grass, and all their promises are like the flowers in the field.The grass dries up, the flowers wither, when the wind sent by the LORD blows on them. Surely humanity is like grass.The grass dries up, the flowers wither, but the decree of our God is forever reliable.”

These all died in faith without receiving the things promised, but they saw them in the distance and welcomed them and acknowledged that they were strangers and foreigners on the earth.For those who speak in such a way make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.In fact, if they had been thinking of the land that they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.But as it is, they aspire to a better land, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore, God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

People are like a vapor, their days like a shadow that disappears.

You do not know about tomorrow. What is your life like? For you are a puff of smoke that appears for a short time and then vanishes.
