dby@Job:14:1 @ Man, born of woman, is of few days, and full of trouble.

dby@Job:14:2 @ He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down; and he fleeth as a shadow, and continueth not.

dby@Job:14:3 @ Yet dost thou open thine eyes upon such a one, and bringest me into judgment with thee?

dby@Job:14:4 @ Who can bring a clean [man] out of the unclean? Not one!

dby@Job:14:5 @ If his days are determined, if the number of his months is with thee, [and] thou hast appointed his bounds which he must not pass,

dby@Job:14:6 @ Look away from him; and let him rest, till he accomplish, as a hireling, his day.

dby@Job:14:7 @ For there is hope for a tree: if it be cut down, it will sprout again, and its tender branch will not cease;

dby@Job:14:8 @ Though its root grow old in the earth, and its stock die in the ground,

dby@Job:14:9 @ Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and put forth boughs like a young plant.

dby@Job:14:10 @ But a man dieth, and is prostrate; yea, man expireth, and where is he?

dby@Job:14:11 @ The waters recede from the lake, and the river wasteth and drieth up:

dby@Job:14:12 @ So man lieth down, and riseth not again; till the heavens be no more, they do not awake, nor are raised out of their sleep.

dby@Job:14:13 @ Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, that thou wouldest keep me secret until thine anger be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me, --

dby@Job:14:14 @ (If a man die, shall he live [again]?) all the days of my time of toil would I wait, till my change should come:

dby@Job:14:15 @ Thou wouldest call, and I would answer thee; thou wouldest have a desire after the work of thy hands.

dby@Job:14:16 @ For now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?

dby@Job:14:17 @ My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou heapest up mine iniquity.

dby@Job:14:18 @ And indeed a mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of its place;

dby@Job:14:19 @ The waters wear the stones, the floods thereof wash away the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.

dby@Job:14:20 @ Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth away; thou changest his countenance, and dismissest him.

dby@Job:14:21 @ His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, and he perceiveth it not.

dby@Job:14:22 @ But his flesh hath pain for himself alone, and his soul mourneth for himself.
