'Dries' in the Bible

while their inhabitants, lacking strength, stand dismayed and confused. They were like vegetation out in the fields, and like green herbs just as grass that grows on a housetop dries out before it can grow.

when dust dries into a mass and then breaks apart into clods?

May they be like a snail that dries up as it crawls; like a woman's stillborn baby, who never saw the sun.

"The earth dries up and withers; the world languishes and fades away; heaven fades away, along with the earth.

"Tell them, "This is what the Lord GOD says, "Will it prosper? Won't he pull up its roots, and strip it bare so all its fresh foliage dries up? It won't be by great strength or by a great army that it will be uprooted.

He rebukes the sea, and it evaporates; he dries up all the rivers. Bashan and Carmel wither, while the flowers of Lebanon languish.
