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 the rich man will also fade away in his pursuits.

ગુજરાતીયાકૂબનો પત્ર ૧:૧૧
કેમ કે સૂર્ય ઊગે છે અને ગરમ પવન વાય છે ત્યારે ઘાસ ચીમળાય છે; તેનું ફૂલ ખરી પડે છે અને તેના સૌંદર્યની શોભા નાશ પામે છે તેમ શ્રીમંત પણ તેના વ્યવહારમાં વિલીન થઈ જશે.
हिन्दीयाकूब १:११
क्योंकि सूर्य उदय होते ही कड़ी धूप पड़ती है और घास को सुखा देती है, और उसका फूल झड़ जाता है, और उसकी शोभा मिटती जाती है; उसी प्रकार धनवान भी अपने कार्यों के मध्य में ही लोप हो जाएँगे। (भज. 102:11, यशा. 40:7,8)

In context

9Let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position;

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

11For 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 the rich man will also fade away in his pursuits.

12Blessed is a person who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord promised to those who love him.

13Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.
