Those of low estate are but a breath;
those of high estate are a delusion;
in the balances they go up;
they are together lighter than a breath.

Trust in him at all times, you people;
pour out your hearts to him,

Surely the lowborn are but a breath,
the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance, they are nothing;
together they are only a breath.

Together on a scale,
they weigh less than a vapor.

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.
