From Old Norse svangr (“slender, slim, thin”), from Proto-Germanic *swangaz (“thin, slim”). The original meaning in Germanic was probably 'curved inwards', discernible from the derived Old Norse svangi (“flank, groin”), i.e., 'the sides of the abdomen which curve inwards slightly'. Within Icelandic the meaning developed from 'thin' to 'feeling hungry'. Cognates are Faroese svangur (“hungry”), Danish svang (“thin, famished”), Norwegian svang (“hungry”), dialectal Swedish svånger (“thin, hungry, empty”), Middle Swedish svanger (“slender, emaciated, very thin”), Middle High German swanger (“flexible, slender”).
Further origin unsure, perhaps related to Old Irish seng (“narrow, thin”). Not related to Danish svanger, Norwegian svanger, Dutch zwanger, and German schwanger (“pregnant”).

A voice says, "Cry out." And I answer, "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."

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."
