11 As the water of a lake dries up

or a riverbed becomes parched and dry,

12 so he lies down and does not rise;

till the heavens are no more, people will not awake

or be roused from their sleep.

11 As the waters fail from the sea,

And the flood decayeth and drieth up:

12 So man lieth down, and riseth not:

Till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake,

Nor be raised out of their sleep.

11 As water evaporates from a lake

and a river disappears in drought,

12 people are laid to rest and do not rise again.

Until the heavens are no more, they will not wake up

nor be roused from their sleep.

11 As water disappears from the sea,

And a river becomes parched and dries up,

12 So man lies down and does not rise.

Till the heavens are no more,

They will not awake

Nor be roused from their sleep.

11 Water disappears from a lake,

and a river loses its water and dries up.

12 In the same way, we lie down and do not rise again;

we will not get up or be awakened

until the heavens disappear.

11 As the waters fail from the sea,

And the river wasteth and drieth up;

12 So man lieth down and riseth not:

Till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake,

Nor be roused out of their sleep.

11 The waters recede from the lake, and the river wasteth and drieth up: 12 So man lieth down, and riseth not again; till the heavens be no more, they do not awake, nor are raised out of their sleep.

11 ⸤As⸥ water drains out of a lake, 

or ⸤as⸥ a river dries up completely, 

12 so each person lies down 

and does not rise until the heavens cease to exist. 

He does not wake up. 

He is not awakened from his sleep. 

11 As water disappears from the sea

and a river becomes parched and dry,

12 so man lies down never to rise again.

They will not wake up until the heavens are no more;

they will not stir from their sleep.

11 As waters fail from a lake,

and a river wastes away and dries up,

12 so mortals lie down and do not rise again;

until the heavens are no more, they will not awake

or be roused out of their sleep.

11 As water disappears from a lake,

and a river withers away and dries up,

12 so a man lies down, and he does not arise.

Until the heavens are no more, they will not awaken,

and they will not be roused out of their sleep.

11 Water disappears from lakes.

Riverbeds become empty and dry.

12 In the same way, a man lies down and never gets up.

He won’t wake up or rise from his sleep

until the heavens are gone.

11 “As water evaporates from the sea,

And a river becomes parched and dried up,

12 So man lies down and does not rise.

Until the heavens are no longer,

He will not awake nor be aroused out of his sleep.
