When the wicked spring as the grass, And when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; It is that they shall be destroyed for ever.

When the wicked flourish as a herb, And blossom do all workers of iniquity--For their being destroyed for ever and ever!

though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all the evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.
