40:6 A voice says, “Cry out!”
Another asks, 1 “What should I cry out?”
The first voice responds: 2 “All people are like grass, 3
and all their promises 4 are like the flowers in the field.
40:7 The grass dries up,
the flowers wither,
when the wind sent by the Lord 5 blows on them.
Surely humanity 6 is like grass.
40:8 The grass dries up,
the flowers wither,
but the decree of our God is forever reliable.” 7
90:5 You bring their lives to an end and they “fall asleep.” 8
In the morning they are like the grass that sprouts up;
90:6 in the morning it glistens 9 and sprouts up;
at evening time it withers 10 and dries up.
