Job 14:8-20
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 14
8
Though its roots grow old in the ground,
And its stump dies in the dry soil,
9
At the scent of water it will flourish
And produce sprigs like a plant.
10
But a man dies and lies prostrate.
A person passes away, and where is he?
11
As
water evaporates from the sea,
And a river becomes parched and dried up,
12
So a man lies down and does not rise.
Until the heavens no longer exist,
He will not awake nor be woken from his sleep.
13
'Oh that You would hide me in Sheol,
That You would conceal me until Your wrath returns
to You,
That You would set a limit for me and remember me!
14
If a man dies, will he live
again?
All the days of my struggle I will wait
Until my relief comes.
15
You will call, and I will answer You;
You will long for the work of Your hands.
16
For now You number my steps,
You do not observe my sin.
17
My wrongdoing is sealed up in a bag,
And You cover over my guilt.
18
'But the falling mountain crumbles away,
And the rock moves from its place;
19
Water wears away stones,
Its torrents wash away the dust of the earth;
So You destroy a man’s hope.
20
You forever overpower him and he departs;
You
change his appearance and send him away.
King James Version
Chapter 14
8
Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;
9
Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.
10
But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
11
As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:
12
So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
13
O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14
If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
15
Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.
16
For now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?
17
My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou sewest up mine iniquity.
18
And surely the mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of his place.
19
The waters wear the stones: thou washest away the things which grow out of the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.
20
Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 14
8
If its roots grow old in the ground
and its stump starts to die in the soil,
9
the scent of water makes it thrive
and produce twigs like a sapling.
10
But a person dies and fades away;
he breathes his last—where is he?
11
As water disappears from a lake
and a river becomes parched and dry,
12
so people lie down never to rise again.
They will not wake up until the heavens are no more;
they will not stir from their sleep.
13
If only you would hide me in Sheol
and conceal me until your anger passes.
If only you would appoint a time for me
and then remember me.
14
When a person dies, will he come back to life?
If so, I would wait all the days of my struggle
until my relief comes.
15
You would call, and I would answer you.
You would long for the work of your hands.
16
For then you would count my steps
but would not take note of my sin.
17
My rebellion would be sealed up in a bag,
and you would cover over my iniquity.
18
But as a mountain collapses and crumbles
and a rock is dislodged from its place,
19
as water wears away stones
and torrents wash away the soil from the land,
so you destroy a man’s hope.
20
You completely overpower him, and he passes on;
you change his appearance and send him away.
New Living Translation
Chapter 14
8
Though its roots have grown old in the earth
and its stump decays,
9
at the scent of water it will bud
and sprout again like a new seedling.
10
'But when people die, their strength is gone.
They breathe their last, and then where are they?
11
As water evaporates from a lake
and a river disappears in drought,
12
people are laid to rest and do not rise again.
Until the heavens are no more, they will not wake up
nor be roused from their sleep.
13
'I wish you would hide me in the grave
and forget me there until your anger has passed.
But mark your calendar to think of me again!
14
Can the dead live again?
If so, this would give me hope through all my years of struggle,
and I would eagerly await the release of death.
15
You would call and I would answer,
and you would yearn for me, your handiwork.
16
For then you would guard my steps,
instead of watching for my sins.
17
My sins would be sealed in a pouch,
and you would cover my guilt.
18
'But instead, as mountains fall and crumble
and as rocks fall from a cliff,
19
as water wears away the stones
and floods wash away the soil,
so you destroy people’s hope.
20
You always overpower them, and they pass from the scene.
You disfigure them in death and send them away.
English Standard Version
Chapter 14
8
Though its root grow old in the earth,
and its stump die in the soil,
9
yet at the scent of water it will bud
and put out branches like a young plant.
10
But a man dies and is laid low;
man breathes his last, and where is he?
11
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 the heavens are no more he will not awake
or be roused out of his sleep.
13
Oh that you would hide me in Sheol,
that you would conceal me 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 service I would wait,
till my renewal should come.
15
You would call, and I would answer you;
you would long for the work of your hands.
16
For then you would number my steps;
you would not keep watch over my sin;
17
my transgression would be sealed up in a bag,
and you would cover over my iniquity.
18
"But the mountain falls and crumbles away,
and the rock is removed from its place;
19
the waters wear away the stones;
the torrents wash away the soil of the earth;
so you destroy the hope of man.
20
You prevail forever against him, and he passes;
you change his countenance, and send him away.
New International Version
Chapter 14
8
Its roots may grow old in the ground
and its stump die in the soil,
9
yet at the scent of water it will bud
and put forth shoots like a plant.
10
But a man dies and is laid low;
he breathes his last and is no more.
11
As the water of a lake dries up
or a riverbed becomes parched and dry,
12
so he lies down and does not rise;
till the heavens are no more, people will not awake
or be roused from their sleep.
13
"If only you would hide me in the grave
and conceal me till your anger has passed!
If only you would set me a time
and then remember me!
14
If someone dies, will they live again?
All the days of my hard service
I will wait for my renewal to come.
15
You will call and I will answer you;
you will long for the creature your hands have made.
16
Surely then you will count my steps
but not keep track of my sin.
17
My offenses will be sealed up in a bag;
you will cover over my sin.
18
"But as a mountain erodes and crumbles
and as a rock is moved from its place,
19
as water wears away stones
and torrents wash away the soil,
so you destroy a person’s hope.
20
You overpower them once for all, and they are gone;
you change their countenance and send them away.
New King James Version
Chapter 14
8
Though its root may grow old in the earth,
And its stump may die in the ground,
9
Yet
at the scent of water it will bud
And bring forth branches like a plant.
10
But man dies and is laid away;
Indeed he breathes his last
And where
is
he?
11
As
water disappears from the sea,
And a river becomes parched and dries up,
12
So man lies down and does not rise.
Till the heavens
are
no more,
They will not awake
Nor be roused from their sleep.
13
“Oh, that You would hide me in the grave,
That You would conceal me until Your wrath is 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 hard service I will wait,
Till my change comes.
15
You shall call, and I will answer You;
You shall desire the work of Your hands.
16
For now You number my steps,
But do not watch over my sin.
17
My transgression
is
sealed up in a bag,
And You cover my iniquity.
18
“But
as
a mountain falls
and
crumbles away,
And
as
a rock is moved from its place;
19
As
water wears away stones,
And as
torrents wash away the soil of the earth;
So You destroy the hope of man.
20
You prevail forever against him, and he passes on;
You change his countenance and send him away.
