9 As a cloud vanishes and is gone,

so one who goes down to the grave does not return.

10 He will never come to his house again;

his place will know him no more.

9 As the cloud fades and vanishes,

so he who goes down to Sheol does not come up;

10 he returns no more to his house,

nor does his place know him anymore.

9 As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away:

So he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.

10 He shall return no more to his house,

Neither shall his place know him any more.

9 Just as a cloud dissipates and vanishes,

those who die will not come back.

10 They are gone forever from their home—

never to be seen again.

9 As the cloud disappears and vanishes away,

So he who goes down to the grave does not come up.

10 He shall never return to his house,

Nor shall his place know him anymore.

9 As a cloud disappears and is gone,

people go to the grave and never return.

10 They will never come back to their houses again,

and their places will not know them anymore.

9 As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away,

So he that goeth down to Sheol shall come up no more.

10 He shall return no more to his house,

Neither shall his place know him any more.

9 The cloud consumeth and vanisheth away; so he that goeth down to Sheol shall not come up. 10 He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him again.

9 As a cloud fades away and disappears, 

so a person goes into the grave and doesn’t come back again. 

10 He doesn’t come back home again, 

and his household doesn’t recognize him anymore. 

9 As a cloud fades away and vanishes,

so the one who goes down to Sheol will never rise again.

10 He will never return to his house;

his hometown will no longer remember him.

9 As the cloud fades and vanishes,

so those who go down to Sheol do not come up;

10 they return no more to their houses,

nor do their places know them any more.

9 A cloud vanishes, and it goes away,

so he who goes down to Sheol will not come up.

10 He does not return again to his house,

and his place does not recognize him again.

9 When a cloud disappears, it’s gone forever.

And anyone who goes down to the grave never returns.

10 He never comes home again.

Even his own family doesn’t remember him.
