Psalm 144:2-4
Names of God Bible

2 my merciful one, my Metsuda,
    my stronghold, and my savior,
    my Magen, the one in whom I take refuge,
        and the one who brings people under my authority.

3 O Yahweh, what are humans that you should care about them?
    What are mere mortals that you should think about them?
4         Humans are like a breath of air.
        Their life span is like a fleeting shadow.
