2Ki 19:26 | CPDV | STEP | And whoever may settle in these, they have trembled, with a weak hand, and they have been confounded. They have become like the hay of the field, and like weeds sprouting on the rooftops, which dry up before they reached maturity.

2 Kings 19:26

26 And whoever may settle in these, they have trembled, with a weak hand, and they have been confounded. They have become like the hay of the field, and like weeds sprouting on the rooftops, which dry up before they reached maturity. ^{▼▼19:26The word virens can refer to the color green, but it also can refer to plants that have newly sprung up (and so are green). In this case, the green growths on the rooftops will soon wither, becoming brown.(Conte)}
