And shall phiss him mout of his place.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

The east wind lifts him up and he is gone;

it sweeps him out of his place.

It hurls at him without pity;

he flees from its power in headlong flight.

It claps its hands at him

and hisses at him from its place.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

The east wind carries him off, and he is gone;

it sweeps him out of his place.

It hurls itself against him without mercy

as he flees headlong from its power.

It claps its hands in derision

and hisses him out of his place.”

CSBChristian Standard Bible

An east wind picks him up, and he is gone;

it carries him away from his place.

It blasts at him without mercy,

while he flees desperately from its force.

It claps its hands at him

and scoffs at him from its place.

NLTNew Living Translation

The east wind carries them away, and they are gone.

It sweeps them away.

It whirls down on them without mercy.

They struggle to flee from its power.

But everyone jeers at them

and mocks them.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

The east wind lifts him up, and he is gone,

and it sweeps him away from his place.

And it hurls at him, and it has no compassion;

he will quickly flee from its power.

It claps its hands over him,

and it hisses at him from its place.
