Job 14 (kjv)

Man^H120 that is born^H3205 of a woman^H802 is of few^H7116 days^H3117, and full^H7649 of trouble^H7267.²He cometh forth^H3318 like a flower^H6731, and is cut down^H5243: he fleeth^H1272 also as a shadow^H6738, and continueth^H5975 not.³And dost thou open^H6491 thine eyes^H5869 upon such an one^H2088, and bringest^H935 me into judgment^H4941 with thee?⁴Who can bring^H5414 a clean^H2889 thing out of an unclean^H2931? not one^H259.⁵Seeing^H518 his days^H3117 are determined^H2782, the number^H4557 of his months^H2320 are with thee, thou hast appointed^H6213 his bounds^H2706 that he cannot pass^H5674;⁶Turn^H8159 from him, that he may rest^H2308, till he shall accomplish^H7521, as an hireling^H7916, his day^H3117.

⁷For 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^H2308.⁸Though the root^H8328 thereof wax old^H2204 in the earth^H776, and the stock^H1503 thereof die^H4191 in the ground^H6083;⁹Yet through the scent^H7381 of water^H4325 it will bud^H6524, and bring forth^H6213 boughs^H7105 like a plant^H5194.¹⁰But man^H1397 dieth^H4191, and wasteth away^H2522: yea, man^H120 giveth up the ghost^H1478, and where is he?¹¹As the waters^H4325 fail^H235 from the sea^H3220, and the flood^H5104 decayeth^H2717 and drieth up^H3001:¹²So man^H376 lieth down^H7901, and riseth^H6965 not: till the heavens^H8064 be no more^H1115, they shall not awake^H6974, nor be raised out^H5782 of their sleep^H8142.¹³O that^H5414 thou wouldest hide^H6845 me in the grave^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!¹⁴If a man^H1397 die^H4191, shall he live^H2421 again? all the days^H3117 of my appointed time^H6635 will I wait^H3176, till my change^H2487 come^H935.¹⁵Thou shalt call^H7121, and I will answer^H6030 thee: thou wilt have a desire^H3700 to the work^H4639 of thine hands^H3027.

¹⁶For now thou numberest^H5608 my steps^H6806: dost thou not watch^H8104 over my sin^H2403?¹⁷My transgression^H6588 is sealed up^H2856 in a bag^H6872, and thou sewest up^H2950 mine iniquity^H5771.¹⁸And surely^H199 the mountain^H2022 falling^H5307 cometh to nought^H5034, and the rock^H6697 is removed^H6275 out of his place^H4725.¹⁹The waters^H4325 wear^H7833 the stones^H68: thou washest away^H7857 the things which grow^H5599 out of the dust^H6083 of the earth^H776; and thou destroyest^H6 the hope^H8615 of man^H582.²⁰Thou prevailest^H8630 for ever^H5331 against him, and he passeth^H1980: thou changest^H8138 his countenance^H6440, and sendest him away^H7971.²¹His sons^H1121 come to honour^H3513, and he knoweth^H3045 it not; and they are brought low^H6819, but he perceiveth^H995 it not of them.²²But his flesh^H1320 upon him shall have pain^H3510, and his soul^H5315 within him shall mourn^H56.
