^{9 Ref} But let the brother of low degree glory in his high estate:

^{10 Ref} and the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.

^{11 Ref} For the sun ariseth with the scorching wind, and withereth the grass: and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his goings.

^{9 Ref} But let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position;

^{10 Ref} and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower in the grass, he will pass away.

^{11 Ref} For the sun arises with the scorching wind, and withers the grass, and the flower in it falls, and the beauty of its appearance perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in his pursuits.

^{9 Ref} And let the brother who is low rejoice in his exaltation,

^{10 Ref} and the rich in his becoming low, because as a flower of grass he shall pass away;

^{11 Ref} for the sun did rise with the burning heat, and did wither the grass, and the flower of it fell, and the grace of its appearance did perish, so also the rich in his way shall fade away!
