Psalm 58:8

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

Let them dry up like snails or be like a child that dies before seeing the sun.

See the chapter Copy

I wish I had been born dead and then buried, never to see the light of day.

You may live a long time and have a hundred children. But a child born dead is better off than you, unless you enjoy life and have a decent burial.

But any who are rich should be glad when God makes them humble. Rich people will disappear like wild flowers

The sky and the earth won't last for ever, but my words will.

and been carried to the grave without ever breathing.
