     Heyr, einhver segir: "Kalla þú!" Og ég svara: "Hvað skal ég kalla?" "Allt hold er gras og allur yndisleikur þess sem blóm vallarins. Grasið visnar, blómin fölna, þegar Drottinn andar á þau. Sannlega, mennirnir eru gras. Grasið visnar, blómin fölna, en orð Guðs vors stendur stöðugt eilíflega."

     A voice says, "Cry out." And I said, "What shall I cry?" "All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field. The grass withers and the flowers fall, because the breath of the Lord blows on them. Surely the people are grass. The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever."

standa

1. to stand

From Proto-Germanic *standaną. The verb occurred in two forms within Germanic, but only this form is attested in Old Norse sources. In the east, this form existed side by side with unattested *stá (from which Swedish stå), from Proto-Germanic *stāną. Both ultimately derive from the same Proto-Indo-European *steh₂-.
