"For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Which in the morning looks green, pretty, and flourishing, and in the evening is
cut down, and then fades away; see Psa 90:5 ; and so the wicked prosper and flourish for a while, and then they perish with all their honour, riches, and wealth; so that their happiness is a very short lived one, and therefore need not be envied and fretted at.
