Job 14

1 ♥ 📝 M an,^H120 that is born^H3205 of a woman,^H802 Is of few^H7116 days,^H3117 and full^H7649 of trouble.^H7267

2 ♥ 📝 He cometh forth^H3318 like a flower,^H6731 and is cut down:^H5243 He fleeth^H1272 also as a shadow,^H6738 and continueth^H5975 not.

3 ♥ 📝 And dost thou open^H6491 thine eyes^H5869 upon such a one,^H2088 And bringest^H935 me into judgment^H4941 with thee?

4 ♥ 📝 Who can bring^H5414 a clean^H2889 thing out of an unclean?^H2931 not one.^H259

5 ♥ 📝 Seeing^H518 his days^H3117 are determined,^H2782 The number^H4557 of his months^H2320 is with thee, And thou hast appointed^H6213 his bounds^H2706 that he cannot pass;^H5674

6 ♥ 📝 Look^H8159 away from him, that he may rest,^H2308 Till he shall accomplish,^H7521 as a hireling,^H7916 his day.^H3117

7 ♥ 📝 For there is^H3426 hope^H8615 of a tree,^H6086 If it be cut down,^H3772 that it will sprout again,^H2498 And that the tender branch^H3127 thereof will not cease.^H2308

8 ♥ 📝 Though the root^H8328 thereof wax old^H2204 in the earth,^H776 And the stock^H1503 thereof die^H4191 in the ground;^H6083

9 ♥ 📝 Yet through the scent^H7381 of water^H4325 it will bud,^H6524 And put forth^H6213 boughs^H7105 like a plant.^H5194

10 ♥ 📝 But man^H1397 dieth,^H4191 and is laid low:^H2522 Yea, man^H120 giveth up the ghost,^H1478 and where is he?

11 ♥ 📝 [ As] the waters^H4325 fail^H235 from the sea,^H3220 And the river^H5104 wasteth^H2717 and drieth up;^H3001

12 ♥ 📝 So man^H376 lieth down^H7901 and riseth^H6965 not: Till the heavens^H8064 be no more,^H1115 they shall not awake,^H6974 Nor be roused out^H5782 of their sleep.^H8142

13 ♥ 📝 Oh that^H5414 thou wouldest hide^H6845 me in Sheol,^H7585 That thou wouldest keep me secret,^H5641 until thy wrath^H639 be past,^H7725 That thou wouldest appoint^H7896 me a set time,^H2706 and remember^H2142 me!

14 ♥ 📝 If a man^H1397 die,^H4191 shall he live^H2421 [again]? All the days^H3117 of my warfare^H6635 would I wait,^H3176 Till my release^H2487 should come.^H935

15 ♥ 📝 Thou wouldest call,^H7121 and I would answer^H6030 thee: Thou wouldest have a desire^H3700 to the work^H4639 of thy hands.^H3027

16 ♥ 📝 But now thou numberest^H5608 my steps:^H6806 Dost thou not watch^H8104 over my sin?^H2403

17 ♥ 📝 My transgression^H6588 is sealed up^H2856 in a bag,^H6872 And thou fastenest up^H2950 mine iniquity.^H5771

18 ♥ 📝 But^H199 the mountain^H2022 falling^H5307 cometh to nought;^H5034 And the rock^H6697 is removed^H6275 out of its place;^H4725

19 ♥ 📝 The waters^H4325 wear^H7833 the stones;^H68 The overflowings thereof wash away^H7857 the^H5599 dust^H6083 of the earth:^H776 So thou destroyest^H6 the hope^H8615 of man.^H582

20 ♥ 📝 Thou prevailest^H8630 for ever^H5331 against him, and he passeth;^H1980 Thou changest^H8138 his countenance,^H6440 and sendest him away.^H7971

21 ♥ 📝 His sons^H1121 come to honor,^H3513 and he knoweth^H3045 it not; And they are brought low,^H6819 but he perceiveth^H995 it not of them.

22 ♥ 📝 But his flesh^H1320 upon him hath pain,^H3510 And his soul^H5315 within him mourneth.^H56
