And my age is as nothing before You;
Certainly every man at his best state is but avapor. Selah
Surely they1 busy themselves in vain;
He heaps up riches,
And does not know who will gather them.

Psalms 39:6
Vain shew - Heb. in a shadow or image; in an imaginary rather than a real life: in the pursuit of vain imaginations, in which there is nothing solid or satisfactory: man in and his life, and all his happiness in this world, are rather appearances and dreams, than truths and realities. Disquieted - Heb. They make a noise, bustling, or tumult, with unwearied industry seeking for riches, and troubling and vexing both themselves and others in the pursuit of them.
