Job 14:1-10

1ManH120that isbornH3205 of a womanH802 is of fewH7116 daysH3117, and fullH7649 of troubleH7267.1 2He cometh forthH3318 like a flowerH6731, and is cut downH5243: he fleethH1272 also as a shadowH6738, and continuethH5975 not. 3And dost thou openH6491 thy eyesH5869 upon such oneH2088, and bringH935 me into judgmentH4941 with thee? 4Who can bringH5414 a cleanH2889 thing out of an uncleanH2931? not oneH259.2 5SeeingH518 his daysH3117 are determinedH2782, the numberH4557 of his monthsH2320 is with thee, thou hast appointedH6213 his boundsH2706 that he cannot passH5674; 6TurnH8159 from him, that he may restH2308, till he shall accomplishH7521, as an hirelingH7916, his dayH3117.3

7For there isH3426 hopeH8615 of a treeH6086, if it is cut downH3772, that it will sprout againH2498, and that its tender branchH3127 will not ceaseH2308. 8Though its rootH8328 shall become oldH2204 in the earthH776, and its stockH1503 dieH4191 in the groundH6083; 9Yet through the scentH7381 of waterH4325 it will budH6524, and bring forthH6213 boughsH7105 like a plantH5194. 10But manH1397 diethH4191, and wasteth awayH2522: yea, manH120 giveth up the ghostH1478, and where is he?4
