Job 14:5-12

5SinceH518 his daysH3117 are determinedH2782, The 1numberH4557 of his monthsH2320 is with You; And his limitsH2706 You have 2setH6213 so that he cannotH3808 passH5674.63TurnH8159 Your gazeH8159 from him that he may 4restH2308, UntilH5704 he 5fulfillsH7521 his dayH3117 like a hiredH7916 manH7916.

7“For thereH3426 is hopeH8615 for a treeH6086, WhenH518 it is cutH3772 downH3772, that it will sproutH2498 againH5750, And its shootsH3127 will not 6failH2308.8ThoughH518 its rootsH8328 growH2204 oldH2204 in the groundH776 And its stumpH1503 diesH4191 in the dryH6083 soilH6083,9At the scentH7381 of waterH4325 it will flourishH6524 And putH6213 forthH6213 sprigsH7105 likeH3644 a plantH5194.10But 7manH1397 diesH4191 and liesH2522 prostrateH2522. ManH120 8expiresH1478, and whereH335 is he?11As 9waterH4325 10evaporatesH235 from the seaH3220, And a riverH5104 becomesH2717 parchedH2717 and driedH3001 up,12So 11manH376 liesH7901 downH7901 and does not riseH6965. UntilH5704 the heavensH8064 are noH1115 longerH1115, 12He will not awakeH7019 norH3808 be arousedH5782 out of 13his sleepH8142.
