Job 13:28-14:6

Christian Standard Bible

²⁸ A person wears out like something rotten,
like a moth-eaten garment.^(A)

14 Anyone born of woman
is short of days and full of trouble.^(B)
2 He blossoms like a flower, then withers;^(C)
he flees like a shadow and does not last.
³ Do you really take notice of one like this?
Will you bring me into judgment against you?^[a](D)
4 Who can produce something pure from what is impure?
No one!
⁵ Since a person’s days are determined
and the number of his months depends on you,
and since you have set^[b] limits he cannot pass,^(E)
6 look away from him and let him rest
so that he can enjoy his day like a hired worker.^(F)
