New International Version (NIV)

5Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death—

they are like the new grass of the morning:

5You have swept them away like a flood, they fall asleep;

In the morning they are like grass that sprouts anew.

5You have swept them away like a flood, they fall asleep [forgotten as soon as they are gone];

In the morning they are like grass which grows anew—

5You sweep them away in their sleep;

they are like the new grass of the morning—

5Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep:

In the morning they are like grass which groweth up.

5Thou hast ouerflowed them: they are as a sleepe: in the morning he groweth like the grasse:

5You sweep them away as they sleep.

In the morning they sprout like new grass.

5Yet you sweep people away, and they die.

They are like new grass that grows in the morning.

5You cause people's lives to end,

as a dream finishes when you wake up.

People are like grass that appears in the morning.

5You have inundated them, they are asleep, || In the morning he changes as grass.
