שִֽׁמְעָ֥ה־תְפִלָּתִ֨י ׀ יְהוָ֡ה וְשַׁוְעָתִ֨י ׀ הַאֲזִינָה֮ אֶֽל־דִּמְעָתִ֗י אַֽל־תֶּ֫חֱרַ֥שׁ כִּ֤י גֵ֣ר אָנֹכִ֣י עִמָּ֑ךְ תּ֝וֹשָׁ֗ב כְּכָל־אֲבוֹתָֽי׃
Wysłuchaj modlitwę moję Boże, wołanie moje usłysz, na łzy moje nie milcz, bo przychodniem ja u Ciebie, przysiedleniec jak wszyscy przodkowie moi.
Shemirat HaLashon
The analogue is self-explanatory. A man's soul, when it descends to the earth is an absolute sojourner [not a "settler" as he is in heaven, (as it is written (Psalms 39:13): "I am a sojourner with You, a settler, like all of my forefathers")], who has come to sojourn here to attain Torah and mitzvoth. For in heaven he can earn nothing, and he has been given an allotted time for this, to return afterwards to its source above and to be bound up there in the bond of life with the L-rd his G-d. And he must reflect upon every day and every hour from the day he becomes a man to ascertain that his sojourn in this world not be in vain. This is the intent of (Psalms 119:19): "I am a sojourner in the land; do not hide Your mitzvoth from me." And the man who answers "I am only twenty, or thirty and I have time" is like the idle sage mentioned above.]
