Job 13:28-14:6
New King James Version
28 “Man[a] decays like a rotten thing,
Like a garment that is moth-eaten.
Job Speaks of Life’s Woes
14 “Man who is born of woman
Is of few days and (A)full of [b]trouble.
2 (B)He comes forth like a flower and fades away;
He flees like a shadow and does not continue.
3 And (C)do You open Your eyes on such a one,
And (D)bring [c]me to judgment with Yourself?
4 Who (E)can bring a clean thing out of an unclean?
No one!
5 (F)Since his days are determined,
The number of his months is with You;
You have appointed his limits, so that he cannot pass.
6 (G)Look away from him that he may [d]rest,
Till (H)like a hired man he 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.
