They are exalted for a little while, and then they are gone, they are brought low like all others, and gathered in, and like a head of grain they are cut off.’

他们被高举，不过片时就没有了；他们降为卑，被除灭，与众人一样，又如谷穗被割。

他们高升，不过片刻就没有了；他们降为卑，被除灭，与众人一样，又如谷的穗子被割下。

他们高升，不过片刻就没有了；他们降为卑，被除灭，与众人一样，又如谷的穗子被割下。

他们一时得势，转瞬消逝；他们沦为卑贱，像其他人一样灭亡，像麦穗一样被割掉。

他们被高举不过片时，就没有了，他们降为卑，如众人一样被收拾起来，他们又如谷穗枯干。

他們被高舉，不過片時就沒有了；他們降為卑，被除滅，與眾人一樣，又如穀穗被割。

他們高升，不過片刻就沒有了；他們降為卑，被除滅，與眾人一樣，又如穀的穗子被割下。

他們高升，不過片刻就沒有了；他們降為卑，被除滅，與眾人一樣，又如穀的穗子被割下。

他們一時得勢，轉瞬消逝；他們淪為卑賤，像其他人一樣滅亡，像麥穗一樣被割掉。

他們被高舉不過片時，就沒有了，他們降為卑，如眾人一樣被收拾起來，他們又如穀穗枯乾。

但是他們被高舉不過片時，就沒有了；他們被降低，被收拾，跟眾人一樣；又如穗頭被割下。

彼被高舉、未幾而逝、卑降見移、與眾無殊、有若穀穗被刈、

勃然而興、不久逝世、與眾無異、譬諸田禾、既稔而刈。

其興也、或作畢生興盛俄頃即逝、滅亡入墓、與眾無異、如成熟之穀穗被刈、

For a little while they are exalted, and then they are gone; they are brought low and gathered up like all others; they are cut off like heads of grain.

For a little while they are honored. Then they are gone. They are brought low. And they die like everyone else. They are cut off like heads of grain.

They are exalted a little while, and then are gone; they are brought low and gathered up like all others; they are cut off like the heads of grain.

And though they are great now, in a moment they will be gone like all others, cut off like heads of grain.

They are exalted for a moment, then gone; they are brought low and shrivel up like everything else. They wither like heads of grain.

They are exalted a little while, then they are gone; Moreover, they are brought low, and like everything they are gathered up; Like the heads of grain they wither.

They are exalted for a little while, Then they are gone. They are brought low; They are taken out of the way like all others; They dry out like the heads of grain.

They are exalted; yet a little while, and they are gone; Yea, they are brought low, they are taken out of the way as all others, And are cut off as the tops of the ears of grain.

They are exalted for a moment, then they are gone; they are brought low and shrivel up like everything else. They wither like heads of grain.

They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all[ other], and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.

They are exalted; yet a little while, and they are gone. Yes, they are brought low, they are taken out of the way as all others, and are cut off as the tops of the ears of grain.

Evil men will soon disappear; you will stare at the spot where they once were, but they will be gone.

If his sons are honored, he does not know it; if they are brought low, he does not see it.

Then I looked, and a white cloud appeared, and seated on the cloud was one like a son of man! He had a golden crown on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand.Then another angel came out of the temple, shouting in a loud voice to the one seated on the cloud,“ Use your sickle and start to reap, because the time to reap has come, since the earth’s harvest is ripe!”So the one seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped.Then another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.Another angel, who was in charge of the fire, came from the altar and called in a loud voice to the angel who had the sharp sickle,“ Use your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes off the vine of the earth, because its grapes are now ripe.”So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and gathered the grapes from the vineyard of the earth and tossed them into the great winepress of the wrath of God.Then the winepress was stomped outside the city, and blood poured out of the winepress up to the height of horses’ bridles for a distance of almost two hundred miles.

How desolate they become in a mere moment! Terrifying judgments make their demise complete!

When the wicked sprout up like grass, and all the evildoers glisten, it is so that they may be annihilated.

Come now, you rich! Weep and cry aloud over the miseries that are coming on you.Your riches have rotted and your clothing has become moth- eaten.Your gold and silver have rusted and their rust will be a witness against you. It will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have hoarded treasure!

For the sun rises with its heat and dries up the meadow; the petal of the flower falls off and its beauty is lost forever. So also the rich person in the midst of his pursuits will wither away.

I have seen ruthless evil men growing in influence, like a green tree grows in its native soil.But then one passes by, and suddenly they have disappeared! I looked for them, but they could not be found.

Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”

It will be as when one gathers the grain harvest, and his hand gleans the ear of grain. It will be like one gathering the ears of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.There will be some left behind, like when an olive tree is beaten– two or three ripe olives remain toward the very top, four or five on its fruitful branches,” says the LORD God of Israel.

that the elation of the wicked is brief, the joy of the godless lasts but a moment.
