Job 14:14-22
King James Version
Job 14:14-22
King James Version
14 If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
15 Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.
16 For now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?
17 My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou sewest up mine iniquity.
18 And surely the mountains falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of his place.
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.
20 Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.
21 His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.
22 But his flesh upon him shall have pain, and his soul within him shall mourn.

New International Version
Job 14:14-22
New International Version
14 If someone dies, will they live again?
All the days of my hard service(A)
I will wait for my renewal[a](B) to come.
15 You will call and I will answer you;(C)
you will long for the creature your hands have made.(D)
16 Surely then you will count my steps(E)
but not keep track of my sin.(F)
17 My offenses will be sealed(G) up in a bag;(H)
you will cover over my sin.(I)
18 “But as a mountain erodes and crumbles(J)
and as a rock is moved from its place,(K)
19 as water wears away stones
and torrents(L) wash away the soil,(M)
so you destroy a person’s hope.(N)
20 You overpower them once for all, and they are gone;(O)
you change their countenance and send them away.(P)
21 If their children are honored, they do not know it;
if their offspring are brought low, they do not see it.(Q)
22 They feel but the pain of their own bodies(R)
and mourn only for themselves.(S)”
