Job 14:7-12

7For there is hope of a tree, if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its tender branch will not cease. 8Though its root shall become old in the earth, and its stock die in the ground; 9Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant. 10But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?1 11As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up: 12So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens shall be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
