Job 14:7
Compare all
5 aSince his days are determined,
The number of his months is with You;
You have appointed his limits, so that he cannot pass. 
6 aLook away from him that he may1 rest,
Till blike a hired man he finishes his day. 
7 “For there is hope for a tree,
If it is cut down, that it will sprout again,
And that its tender shoots will not cease.
8 Though its root may grow old in the earth,
And its stump may die in the ground,
9 Yet at the scent of water it will bud
And bring forth branches like a plant.
10 But man dies and1 is laid away;
Indeed he1 breathes his last
And where is ahe? 
11 As water disappears from the sea,
And a river becomes parched and dries up,
12 So man lies down and does not rise.
aTill the heavens are no more,
They will not awake
Nor be roused from their sleep. 
13 “Oh, that You would hide me in the grave,
That You would conceal me until Your wrath is past,
That You would appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14 If a man dies, shall he live again?
All the days of my hard service aI will wait,
Till my change comes.
