Job 14:18-22

Amplified Bible

¹⁸ 
“But as a mountain, if it falls, crumbles into nothing,
And as the rock is moved from its place,
¹⁹ 
Water wears away the stones,
Its floods and torrents wash away the soil of the earth,
So You [O Lord] destroy the hope of man.
²⁰ 
“You prevail forever against him and overpower him, and he passes on;
You change his appearance and send him away [from the presence of the living].
²¹ 
“His sons achieve honor, and he does not know it;
They become insignificant, and he is not aware of it.
²² 
“But his body [lamenting its decay] grieves in pain over it,
And his soul mourns over [the loss of] himself.”
