NIVNew International Version (2011)

As a cloud vanishes and is gone,

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

He will never come to his house again;

his place will know him no more.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

As a cloud fades away and vanishes,

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

He will never return to his house;

his hometown will no longer remember him.

NLTNew Living Translation

Just as a cloud dissipates and vanishes,

those who die will not come back.

They are gone forever from their home—

never to be seen again.

A cloud vanishes, and it goes away,

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

He does not return again to his house,

and his place does not recognize him again.

As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away:

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

He shall return no more to his house,

Neither shall his place know him any more.
