Job 14:5-12
5Seeing his daysH3117 are determined,The numberH4557 of his monthsH2320 is with thee,And thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot passH5674;6LookH8159 awayH8159 from him, that he may rest,Till he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his dayH3117.7For there is hopeH8615 of a treeH6086,If it be cutH3772 down, that it will sproutH2498 againH5750,And that the tender branch thereof will not ceaseH2308.8Though the rootH8328 thereof wax oldH2204 in the earthH776,And the stock thereof dieH4191 in the groundH776;9Yet through the scent of waterH4325 it will budH6524,And put forth boughs like a plant.10But manH120 dieth, and is laid low:Yea, manH120 giveth up the ghost, and whereH346 is he?11Asthe watersH4325 fail from the seaH3220,And the riverH5104 wasteth and drieth up;12So manH376 lieth downH7901 and riseth not:Till the heavensH8064 be no more, they shall not awakeH5782,Nor be rousedH5782 out of their sleepH8142.
