Job 13:28-14:6
English Standard Version
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.
Job 13:28-14:6
New American Standard Bible
Job Speaks of the Finality of Death
14 “(B)Man, who is born of woman,
Is [b]short-lived and (C)full of turmoil.
2 (D)Like a flower he comes out and withers.
He also flees like (E)a shadow and does not remain.
3 You also (F)open Your eyes on him
And (G)bring [c]him into judgment with Yourself.
4 (H)Who can make the clean out of the unclean?
No one!
5 Since his days are determined,
The (I)number of his months is with You;
And You have [d]set his limits so that he cannot pass.
6 (J)Look away from him so that he may [e]rest,
Until he [f]fulfills his day like a hired worker.
