My days go quicker than the cloth-worker's thread, and come to an end without hope.

While still uncut shoots,
they would dry up quicker than any other plant.

My days go quicker than a post-runner: they go in flight, they see no good.

See, he will come up like the clouds, and his war-carriages like the storm-wind: his horses are quicker than eagles. Sorrow is ours, for destruction has come on us.

And their horses are quicker than leopards and their horsemen more cruel than evening wolves; they come from far away, like an eagle in flight rushing on its food.

And the two men ran together, and the other disciple ran ahead quicker than Peter and came first to the sepulcher.
