They are planted scarcely. They are sown scarcely. Their stock has scarcely taken root in the ground. He merely blows on them, and they wither, and the whirlwind takes them away as stubble.

ગુજરાતીયશાયા ૪૦:૨૪
જુઓ, તેઓ રોપાયા ન રોપાયા કે, તેઓ વવાયા ન વવાયા, તેઓના મૂળ જમીનમાં જડાયાં કે, તરત જ તેઓ પર તે ફૂંક મારે છે અને તેઓ સુકાઈ જાય છે અને વાયુ તેમને ફોતરાંની જેમ ઉડાવી દે છે.
हिन्दीयशायाह ४०:२४
वे रोपे ही जाते, वे बोए ही जाते, उनके ठूँठ भूमि में जड़ ही पकड़ पाते कि वह उन पर पवन बहाता और वे सूख जाते, और आँधी उन्हें भूसे के समान उड़ा ले जाती है।

In context

22It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them out like a tent to dwell in,

23who brings princes to nothing, who makes the judges of the earth meaningless.

24They are planted scarcely. They are sown scarcely. Their stock has scarcely taken root in the ground. He merely blows on them, and they wither, and the whirlwind takes them away as stubble.

25“To whom then will you liken me? Who is my equal?” says the Holy One.

26Lift up your eyes on high, and see who has created these, who brings out their army by number. He calls them all by name. By the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power, not one is lacking.
