Job 14:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 14:7

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,
