He is swift as the waters; Their portion is cursed in the earth: He beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.
[You say] Swiftly such men pass away on the face of the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth; [no treader] turns into their vineyards.
Swiftly they pass away upon the face of the waters; Their portion is cursed in the earth: They turn not into the way of the vineyards.
They are scum on the water’s surface; their portion of the land is cursed; no one walks down a path in the vineyards.
He is nimble on the surface of water. His place on land is to be accursed. May he not walk by way of the vineyards.
