3 O LORD, what is man that thou dost regard him, or the son of man that thou dost think of him?
3 LORD, what are human beings that you care for them, mere mortals that you think of them?

5 Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down! Touch the mountains that they smoke!
5 Part your heavens, LORD, and come down; touch the mountains, so that they smoke.
6 Flash forth the lightning and scatter them, send out thy arrows and rout them!
