Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where is he?
he will vanish forever like his own dung. Those who know him will ask, “Where is he?”
he will vanish for ever like his own dung. Those who know him will ask, ‘Where is he? ’
they will perish forever like their dung; those who saw them will say, “Where are they?”
but he will vanish completely, like his own dung — those who used to see him will ask, ‘Where is he?’
they will disappear like dust, and those who knew them will wonder what happened.
Like his own dung doth he perish for ever; they which have seen him shall say, Where is he?
In the end he shall be destroyed like a dunghill, and they that has seen him shall say: Where is he?

“Don’t you even know the basics, how things have been since the earliest days, when Adam and Eve were first placed on earth? The good times of the wicked are short-lived; godless joy is only momentary. The evil might become world famous, strutting at the head of the celebrity parade, But still end up in a pile of dung. Acquaintances look at them with disgust and say, ‘What’s that?’ They fly off like a dream that can’t be remembered, like a shadowy illusion that vanishes in the light. Though once notorious public figures, now they’re nobodies, unnoticed, whether they come or go. Their children will go begging on skid row, and they’ll have to give back their ill-gotten gain. Right in the prime of life, and youthful and vigorous, they’ll die.
yet he will perish forever like his own excrement; those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
he will certainly rot like his own feces. Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
Yet he perishes forever like the dung he uses for fuel, and onlookers say, “Where is he?”
He perishes forever like his refuse; Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
He perishes forever like his refuse; Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
he is destined to perish forever like his own dung, and those who used to see him will ask: ‘Where is he?’
but they will be gone forever, like their own dung. People who knew them will say, ‘Where are they?’
he will perish forever, like his own excrement; those who used to see him will say, ‘Where is he?’
But they will disappear forever, like the waste from their own bodies. Anyone who has seen them will say, ‘Where did they go?’
he will perish forever, like his own dung; those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
he will perish for ever, like his own dung; those who have seen him will say, “Where is he?”
Yet he will perish forever like his own refuse; Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
he will be gone forever, like his own waste. Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
yet they will vanish forever, thrown away like their own dung. Those who knew them will ask, ‘Where are they?’
they will perish for ever like their own dung; those who have seen them will say, “Where are they?”
they will perish for ever like their own dung; those who have seen them will say, “Where are they?”
they will perish forever like their own dung; those who have seen them will say, ‘Where are they?’
they will perish forever like their own dung; those who have seen them will say, ‘Where are they?’
Yet he shall perish lanetzach (forever) like his own dung; they which have seen him shall say, Where is he?

He would still perish forever, like his own excrement; those who once looked upon him would wonder, “Where has he gone?”
yet he will perish forever like his own dung. Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?’
he shall be lost in the end, as a dunghill; and, they that have seen him, shall say, Where is he? (he shall be discarded in the end, like his own dung; and then they who have seen him, shall say, Where is he?)
As his own dung for ever he doth perish, His beholders say: `Where [is] he?'
