Job 14:1-10

1ManH120 that is bornH3205 of a womanH802 is of few daysH3117, and fullH3117 of trouble.

2He cometh forthH3318 like a flowerH6731, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadowH6738, and continueth notH3808.

3And dost thou openH6491 thine eyesH5869 uponH5921 suchH2088 an one, and bringest meH5921 intoH935 judgmentH4941 with thee?

4Who canH4310 bringH5414 a cleanH2889 thingH259 out of an uncleanH2931? notH3808 one.

5Seeing his daysH3117 are determinedH2782, the numberH4557 of his monthsH2320 is with thee, and thou hast appointedH2706 his bounds that he cannotH3808 passH5674;

6LookH8159 awayH8159 from him, that he may restH2308, tillH5704 he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his dayH3117.

7For there is hopeH8615 of a treeH6086, ifH518 it be cutH3772 downH3772, that it will sproutH2498 againH5750, and that the tender branchH6086 thereof will notH3808 ceaseH2308.

8ThoughH518 the rootH8328 thereof wax oldH2204 in the earthH776, and the stockH1503 thereof dieH4191 in the groundH776;

9Yet through the scent of waterH4325 it will budH6524, and put forth boughs like a plantH5194.

10But manH120 dieth, and wasteth away: yea, manH120 giveth up the ghost, and whereH346 is he?
