12 While still growing and uncut,

they wither more quickly than grass.

12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down,

It withereth before any other herb.

12 While they are still flowering, not ready to be cut,

they begin to wither more quickly than grass.

12 While it is yet green and not cut down,

It withers before any other plant.

12 While they are still growing and not yet cut,

they will dry up quicker than grass.

12 Whilst it is yet in its greenness, and not cut down,

It withereth before any other herb.

12 Whilst it is yet in its greenness and not cut down, it withereth before any other grass.

12 Even if they were fresh and not cut, 

they would wither quicker than grass. 

12 While still uncut shoots,

they would dry up quicker than any other plant.

12 While yet in flower and not cut down,

they wither before any other plant.

12 While it is in its flower and is not plucked,

yet it withers before all grass.

12 While they are still growing and haven’t been cut,

they dry up faster than grass does.

12 “While it is still green and not cut down,

Yet it withers before any other plant.
