Psalm 90:5-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

5     [a]you wash them away;(A)
They sleep,
    and in the morning they sprout again like an herb.
6 In the morning it blooms only to pass away;
    in the evening it is wilted and withered.[b](B)

Footnotes

  1. 90:5 You wash them away: the Hebrew of Ps 90:4–5 is unclear.
  2. 90:6 It is wilted and withered: the transitory nature of the grass under the scorching sun was proverbial, cf. Ps 129:6; Is 40:6–8.
