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

Thou art fairer than the children of men; Grace is poured into thy lips: Therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

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 thereof shall shake like Lebanon: And they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.

For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: In the morning they are like grass which groweth up.

When the wicked spring as the grass, And when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; It is that they shall be destroyed for ever.

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

My days are like a shadow that declineth; And I am withered like grass.

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

He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, And herb 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 eateth grass.

Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, Which withereth before it groweth up;

Who covereth the heavens with clouds, Who prepareth rain for the earth, Who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
