For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

He will come down like rain upon the mown grass, as showers that water the earth.

There shall be abundance of grain in the earth upon the top of the mountains. The fruit of it shall shake like Lebanon. And they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.

Thou carry them away as with a flood. They are as a sleep. In the morning they are like grass which grows up.

When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they shall be destroyed forever,

My heart is smitten like grass, and withered, for I forget to eat my bread.

My days are like a shadow that declines, and I am withered like grass.

As for man, his days are as grass, as a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and herbage for the service of man, that he may bring forth food out of the earth,

Thus they changed their glory for the likeness of an ox that eats grass.

Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withers before it grows up,

who covers the heavens with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow upon the mountains.
