How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
Man in his weakness and lowly condition is like the worms of the dust. The worm image marks how frail and low mortal life is beside the Ruler of the universe. It is therefore folly for human beings to boast in their supposed wisdom and strength. To lift that boasted wisdom and strength against the Ruler of the universe is to set littleness against greatness.
