Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:2 - Or he falls like a flower that has bloomed; and he departs like a shadow, and cannot continue.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:3 - Hast thou not taken account even of him, and caused him to enter into judgment before thee?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:4 - For who shall be pure from uncleanness? not even one;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:5 - if even his life should be but one day upon the earth: and his months are numbered by him: thou hast appointed him for a time, and he shall by no means exceed it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:6 - Depart from him, that he may be quiet, and take pleasure in his life, though as a hireling.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:7 - For there is hope for a tree, even if it should be cut down, that it shall blossom again, and its branch shall not fail.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:8 - For though its root should grow old in the earth, and its stem die in the rock;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:9 - it will blossom from the scent of water, and will produce a crop, as one newly planted.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:10 - But a man that has died is utterly gone; and when a mortal has fallen, he is no more.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:11 - For the sea wastes in length of time, and a river fails and is dried up.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:12 - And man that has lain down in death shall certainly not rise again till the heaven be dissolved, and they shall not awake from their sleep.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:13 - For oh that thou hadst kept me in the grave, and hadst hidden me until thy wrath should cease, and thou shouldest set me a time in which thou wouldest remember me!
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:14 - For if a man should die, shall he live again, having accomplished the days of his life? I will wait till I exist again?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:15 - Then shalt thou call, and I will hearken to thee: but do not thou reject the work of thine hands.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:16 - But thou hast numbered my devices: and not one of my sins shall escape thee?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:17 - And thou hast sealed up my transgressions in a bag, and marked if I have been guilty of any transgression unawares.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:18 - And verily a mountain falling will utterly be destroyed, and a rock shall be worn out of its place.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:19 - The waters wear the stones, and waters falling headlong overflow a heap of the earth: and thou destroyest the hope of man.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:20 - Thou drivest him to an end, and he is gone: thou settest thy face against him, and sendest him away;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:21 - and though his children be multiplied, he knows it not; and if they be few, he is not aware.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:22 - But his flesh is in pain, and his soul mourns.
