ASV - Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: In the balances they will go up; They are together lighter than vanity.

BBE - Truly men of low birth are nothing, and men of high position are not what they seem; if they are put in the scales together they are less than a breath.

WEB - Surely men of low degree are just a breath, And men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.

YLT - Only -- vanity `are' the low, a lie the high. In balances to go up they than vanity `are' lighter.
