Look here, you who say,
“Today or tomorrow we are going to a certain town
and will stay there a year.
We will do business there and make a profit.”
How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow?
Your life is like the morning fog—
it’s here a little while,
then it’s gone.
What you ought to say is,
“If the Lord wants us to,
we will live and do this or that.”
