or a tottering fence.

and the powerful are not what they appear to be.
If you weigh them on the scales,
together they are lighter than a breath of air.

Do not set your heart on them.

and I have heard it many times:
Power, O God, belongs to you;

God has spoken once,
Twice I have heard this:
That power belongs to God.

That power belongs to God.
