Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as grain blasted before it is grown up.

This is why their townsmen had no power, they were broken and put to shame; they were like the grass of the field and the green plant, like grass on the house-tops.

Δια τουτο οι κατοικοι αυτων ησαν μικρας δυναμεως, ετρομαξαν και κατησχυνθησαν· ησαν ως ο χορτος του αγρου και ως η χλοη, ως ο χορτος των δωματων και ως ο σιτος ο καιομενος πριν καλαμωση.

Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.
