        Job 14
      
    </p>

<p>

      
        <b> 1.  Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         2.  He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and 
        continueth not.
      
    <br/>

      
         3.  And dost thou open thine eyes upon such an one, and bringest me into judgment with 
        thee?
      
    <br/>

      
         4.  Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
      
    <br/>

      
         5.  Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast 
        appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
      
    <br/>

      
         6.  Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his day.
      
    <br/>

      
         7.  For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that 
        the tender branch thereof will not cease.
      
    <br/>

      
         8.  Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;
      
    <br/>

      
         9.  Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.
      
    <br/>

      
         10.  But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the Ghost, and where is he?
      
    <br/>

      
         11.  As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:
      
    <br/>

      
         12.  So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not 
        awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
      
    <br/>

      
         13.  O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until 
        thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        <b>14.  If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, 
        till my change come.</b>
      
    <br/>

      
         15.  Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of 
        thine hands.
      
    <br/>

      
         16.  For now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?
      
    <br/>

      
         17.  My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou sewest up mine iniquity.
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        18.  And surely the mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of his 
        place.
      
    <br/>

      
         19.  The waters wear the stones: thou washest away the things which grow out of the dust 
        of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.
      
    <br/>

      
         20.  Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth: thou changest his countenance, 
        and sendest him away.
      
    <br/>

      
         21.  His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, but he 
        perceiveth it not of them.
      
    <br/>

      
         
      
      
        22.  But his flesh upon him shall have pain, and his soul within him shall mourn.
      
    <br/>
