Job 14:7-12
English Standard Version
Job 14:7-12
English Standard Version
7 “For there is hope for a tree,
if it be cut down, that it will sprout again,
and that its shoots will not cease.
8 Though its root grow old in the earth,
and (A)its stump die in the soil,
9 yet at the scent of water it will bud
and put out (B)branches like a young plant.
10 But a man dies and is laid low;
man breathes his last, and (C)where is he?
11 (D)As waters fail from a lake
and a river wastes away and dries up,
12 so a man lies down and rises not again;
till (E)the heavens are no more he will not awake
or be (F)roused out of his sleep.

If it is cut down, it will sprout again,
and its new shoots(B) will not fail.(C)

and put forth shoots like a plant.(F)

he breathes his last and is no more.(H)

12 so he lies down and does not rise;(J)
till the heavens are no more,(K) people will not awake
or be roused from their sleep.(L)
