Job 14
Book: Job
JOB CONTINUES TO ARGUE HIS CASE WITH GOD
5 Seeing his days are determined, The number of his months is with thee, And thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
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.
12 So man lieth down and riseth not: Till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, Nor be roused out of their sleep.
13 Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, That thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, That thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14 If a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my warfare would I wait, Till my release should come.
15 Thou wouldest call, and I would answer thee: Thou wouldest have a desire to the work of thy hands.
19 The waters wear the stones; The overflowings thereof wash away the dust of the earth: So thou destroyest the hope of man.
20 Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth; Thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.
