Editing Job 14

* [[Job 14:1|1]] Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble.

* [[Job 14:2|2]] He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.

* [[Job 14:3|3]] And doth thou open thine eyes upon such an one, and bringest me into judgment with thee?

* [[Job 14:4|4]] Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.

* [[Job 14:5|5]] Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;

* [[Job 14:6|6]] Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his day.

* [[Job 14:7|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.

* [[Job 14:8|8]] Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;

* [[Job 14:9|9]] Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.

* [[Job 14:10|10]] But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?

* [[Job 14:11|11]] As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:

* [[Job 14:12|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.

* [[Job 14:13|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!

* [[Job 14:14|14]] If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.

* [[Job 14:15|15]] Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.

* [[Job 14:16|16]] For now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?

* [[Job 14:17|17]] My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou sewest up mine iniquity.

* [[Job 14:18|18]] And surely the mountains falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of his place.

* [[Job 14:19|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.

* [[Job 14:20|20]] Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.

* [[Job 14:21|21]] His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.

* [[Job 14:22|22]] But his flesh upon him shall have pain, and his soul within him shall mourn.
