Job 14:13-17

13“O that you would hide me in Sheol, and conceal me till your anger has passed! O that you would set me a time and then remember me!

14If a man dies, will he live again? All the days of my hard service I will wait until my release comes.

15You will call and I – I will answer you; you will long for the creature you have made.

161“Surely now you count my steps; then you would not mark my sin.

17My offenses would be sealed up in a bag; you would cover over my sin.
