Job 13:28-14:6
Modern English Version
Job 13:28-14:6
Modern English Version
28 “Man, as a rotten thing, decays,
as a garment that is moth eaten.
14 “Man who is born of a woman
is of few days and full of trouble.
2 He comes forth like a flower and withers;
he flees like a shadow and does not continue.
3 Do You open Your eyes on such a one,
and bring me into judgment with You?
4 Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean?
There is no one.
5 Seeing his days are determined,
the number of his months are with You;
You have appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
6 turn from him, that he may rest,
until he, as a hired man, finishes his day.

Job 13:28-14:6
21st Century King James Version
28 And he, as a rotten thing, consumeth, as a garment that is motheaten.
14 “Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble.
2 He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down; he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.
3 And dost Thou open Thine eyes upon such a one, and bringest me into judgment with Thee?
4 Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? Not one!
5 Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with Thee; Thou hast appointed his bounds, that he cannot pass.
6 Turn from him, that he may rest, till, as a hireling, he shall accomplish his day.
