הֲיִֽגְאֶה־גֹּמֶא בְּלֹא בִצָּה יִשְׂגֶּה־אָחוּ בְלִי־מָֽיִם
Can the rush shoot up without mire? Can the reed-grass grow without water?
עֹדֶנּוּ בְאִבּוֹ לֹא יִקָּטֵף וְלִפְנֵי כָל־חָצִיר יִיבָֽשׁ
Whilst it is yet in its greenness, and not cut down, It withereth before any other herb.
כֵּן אָרְחוֹת כָּל־שֹׁכְחֵי אֵל וְתִקְוַת חָנֵף תֹּאבֵֽד
So are the paths of all that forget God; And the hope of the godless man shall perish;
אֲשֶׁר־יָקוֹט כִּסְלוֹ וּבֵית עַכָּבִישׁ מִבְטַחֽוֹ
Whose confidence is gossamer, And whose trust is a spider’s web.
יִשָּׁעֵן עַל־בֵּיתוֹ וְלֹא יַעֲמֹד יַחֲזִיק בּוֹ וְלֹא יָקֽוּם
He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand; He shall hold fast thereby, but it shall not endure.
