Job 13:28-14:6
World English Bible
28 though I am decaying like a rotten thing,
like a garment that is moth-eaten.
14 “Man, who is born of a woman,
is of few days, and full of trouble.
2 He grows up like a flower, and is cut down.
He also flees like a shadow, and doesn’t 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?
Not one.
5 Seeing his days are determined,
the number of his months is with you,
and you have appointed his bounds that he can’t pass;
6 Look away from him, that he may rest,
until he accomplishes, as a hireling, his day.

Job Continues: Death Comes Soon to All
14 “Man who is (C)born of a woman
is (D)few of days and (E)full of trouble.
2 He comes out like (F)a flower and (G)withers;
he flees like (H)a shadow and continues not.
3 And do you (I)open your eyes on such a one
and (J)bring me into judgment with you?
4 Who can bring (K)a clean thing out of an unclean?
There is not one.
5 Since his (L)days are determined,
and (M)the number of his months is with you,
and you have appointed his limits that he cannot pass,
6 (N)look away from him and leave him alone,[b]
that he may enjoy, like (O)a hired hand, his day.
