For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb.
When the wicked spring up like grass, And when all the workers of iniquity flourish, It is that they may be destroyed forever.
He comes forth like a flower and fades away; He flees like a shadow and does not continue.
because “All flesh is as grass, And all the glory of man as the flower of the grass. The grass withers, And its flower falls away,
But You, Lord, are on high forevermore.
For there will be no prospect for the evil man; The lamp of the wicked will be put out.
