Job 14:18-22
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
18 “But the mountain falls and crumbles away,
and the rock is removed from its place;(A)
19 the waters wear away the stones;
the torrents wash away the soil of the earth;
so you destroy the hope of mortals.
20 You prevail forever against them, and they pass away;
you change their countenance and send them away.(B)
21 Their children come to honor, and they do not know it;
they are brought low, and it goes unnoticed.(C)
22 They feel only the pain of their own bodies
and mourn only for themselves.”
Job 14:18-22
International Standard Version
18 “Mountains fall and crumble;
rocks are dislodged from their places.
19 Water wears away stones;
floods wash away topsoil from the land—
but you destroy the hope of human beings just like that!
20 You overpower him once and for all, and then he departs;
you change his appearance and then send him away.
21 “If his children are honored, he doesn’t know it;
if they become insignificant, he never perceives it.
22 He feels only his own pain,[a]
and grieves only for himself.”
