The waters of Nimrim were dried up, the grass was withered, and the herbs destroyed, and the green things gone.

Reed and rush shall fail, the grass by the waterside or upon the river bank, yea and whatsoever is sown by the waters, shall be withered, destroyed, and brought to naught.

For their inhabiters shall be like lame men, brought in fear and confounded. They shall be like the grass and green herbs in the field, like the hay upon housetops, that withereth afore it be grown up.

The same voice spake, "Now cry." And I said, "What shall I cry?" Then spake it, "That all flesh is grass, and that all the beauty thereof, is as the flower of the field.

When the grass is withered, the flower falleth away. Even so is the people as grass, when the breath of the LORD bloweth upon them.

Nevertheless whether the grass wither, or the flower fade away: Yet the word of our God endureth forever."

They shall grow together, like as the grass, and as the Willows by the waterside.
