- How long have I to live:
- Heb. How many days are the years of my life, "And Jacobª saidª° unto¹ Pharaoh,ª The daysª of the yearsª of my pilgrimageª [are] an hundredª and thirtyª years:ª fewª and evilª have the daysª of the yearsª of my lifeª been,¹ and have not¹ attained²° unto¹¹ the daysª of the yearsª of the lifeª of my fathersª in the daysª of their pilgrimage.ª" {Gen 47:9} + "If¹ a manª die,ª° shall he liveª° [again]? all¹ the daysª of my appointed timeª will I wait,ª° till¹ my changeª come.ª°" {Job 14:14} + "Behold,¹ thou hast madeª° my daysª [as] an handbreadth;ª and mine ageª [is] as nothing¹ before¹ thee: verily¹ everyª manª at his best stateª° [is] altogetherª vanity.ª Selah.ª ... Surely¹ every manª walkethª° in a vain shew:ª surely¹ they are disquietedª° in vain:ª he heapeth upª° [riches], and knowethª° not¹ who¹ shall gatherª° them." {Psa 39:5-6} + "Butª thisª I say,ª° brethren,ª the¹ timeª [is] short:ª° it remaineth,ªª° thatª bothª they that haveª° wivesª beª° as thoughª they hadª° none;ª" {1Co 7:29} + "Whereasª ye knowª° notª whatª [shall be] on the¹ morrow.ª Forª whatª [is] yourª life?ª It isª° evenª a vapour,ª that² appeareth¹ for²°¹ a little time,ª andª thenª vanisheth away.ª°" {Jms 4:14}
