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, as all our fathers were, are like men from a strange country before you, who have got a place for a time in the land; our days on the earth are like a shade, and there is no hope of going on.

Διοτι ειμεθα ξενοι ενωπιον σου και παροικοι, καθως παντες οι πατερες ημων· αι ημεραι ημων επι της γης ειναι ως σκια, και μονιμοτης δεν υπαρχει.

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.
