As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up;
As the waters fail from the sea, And the flood decayeth and drieth up:
As waters evaporate from the lake, and the river drains and dries up,
As the waters fail from the sea, And the river wasteth and drieth up;
Water vanishes from the sea; a river dries up completely.
It is as if the waters had receded from the sea and an emptied river had dried up;
As if the waters should depart out of the sea, and an emptied river should be dried up:
so man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up.
Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail?
