When thou with rebukes{H8433} dost correct{H3256}{(H8765)} man{H376} for iniquity{H5771}, thou makest his beauty{H2530}{H8803)} to consume away{H4529}{H8686)} like a moth{H6211}: surely every man{H120} is vanity{H1892}. Selah{H5542}.
Strong's King James
(11) With rebukes, You discipline man over bent-misdeeds,
Consuming like the moth what's precious to him,
Yes, every man, vapour!
