蔓草終被芟。蕭艾豈常青。

May all those who hate Zion be driven back in shame.May they be like grass that grows on the roof of a house. It dries up before it can grow.There isn’t enough of it to fill a person’s hand. There isn’t enough to tie up and carry away.

It troubled me until I entered God’s temple. Then I understood what will finally happen to bad people.God, I’m sure you will make them slip and fall. You will throw them down and destroy them.It will happen very suddenly. A terrible death will take them away completely.A dream goes away when a person wakes up. Lord, it will be like that when you rise up. It will be as if those people were only a dream.

Those who are evil are happy for only a short time. The joy of ungodly people lasts only for a moment.Their pride might reach all the way up to the heavens. Their heads might touch the clouds.But they will disappear forever, like the waste from their own bodies. Anyone who has seen them will say,‘ Where did they go?’Like a dream they will fly away. They will never be seen again. They will be driven away like visions in the night.The eyes that saw them won’t see them anymore. Even their own families won’t remember them.

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

But rich people should take pride in their low positions. That’s because they will fade away like wild flowers.The sun rises. Its burning heat dries up the plants. Their blossoms fall. Their beauty is destroyed. In the same way, rich people will fade away. They fade away even as they go about their business.

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

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.
