Job 14:9-15 (New International Version)

 9 yet at the scent of water it will bud
       and put forth shoots like a plant.

 10 But man dies and is laid low;
       he breathes his last and is no more.

 11 As water disappears from the sea
       or a riverbed becomes parched and dry,

 12 so man lies down and does not rise;
       till the heavens are no more, men will not awake
       or be roused from their sleep.

 13 "If only you would hide me in the grave [a]
       and conceal me till your anger has passed!
       If only you would set me a time
       and then remember me!

 14 If a man dies, will he live again?
       All the days of my hard service
       I will wait for my renewal [b] to come.

 15 You will call and I will answer you;
       you will long for the creature your hands have made.
