13 Oh that you would (A)hide me in (B)Sheol,
    that you would (C)conceal me (D)until your wrath be past,
    that you would appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14 If a man dies, shall he live again?
    All the days of my (E)service I would (F)wait,
    till my renewal[a] should come.
15 You would (G)call, and I would answer you;
    you would long for the (H)work of your hands.
16 For then you would (I)number my steps;
    you would not keep (J)watch over my sin;
17 my transgression would be (K)sealed up in a bag,
    and you would cover over my iniquity.

  1. Job 14:14 Or relief

There is Life after Death

13 “Won’t you keep me safe in the afterlife?[a]
    Conceal me until your anger subsides.
Set an appointment for me,
    then remember me.
14 If a human being[b] dies, will he live again?
    I will endure the entire time of my assigned service,
        until I am changed.[c]
15 You’ll call and I’ll answer you;
    you’ll long for your creatures that your hands have made.[d]
16 Then you’ll certainly count every step I took,
    but you won’t keep an inventory of my sin.
17 My transgressions would be sealed up in a bag;
    you would cover over my sins.
