A thousand years in your sight

are like a day that has just gone by,

Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death—

they are like the new grass of the morning:

In the morning it springs up new,

but by evening it is dry and withered.

In the morning they are like grass which groweth up.

In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up;

In the evening it is cut down, and withereth.

In the morning it blooms and flourishes,

but by evening it is dry and withered.

In the morning it flourishes and grows up;

In the evening it is cut down and withers.

In the morning they are fresh and new,

but by evening they dry up and die.

In the evening it is cut down, and withereth.

Indeed, in your sight a thousand years are like a single day, 

like yesterday—already past—

In the morning they blossom and sprout. 

In the evening they wither and dry up.

in the morning it sprouts and grows;

by evening it withers and dries up.

in the evening it fades and withers.

In the morning it flourishes and sprouts anew;

Toward evening it fades and withers away.
