Psalm 37:2

New International Reader's Version

Like grass, they will soon dry up. Like green plants, they will soon die.

See the chapter Copy

They grow like flowers, and then they dry up. They are like shadows that quickly disappear.

Those who are evil spring up like grass. Those who do wrong succeed. But they will be destroyed forever.

But Lord, you are honored forever.

Tomorrow evil people won’t have any hope. The lamps of sinners will be blown out.

It is written, “All people are like grass. All their glory is like the flowers in the field. The grass dries up. The flowers fall to the ground.
