Job 14:1-6

The Brevity and Misery of Human Life

Job 14:1-6
1
Man born of a woman, living for a short time, is filled with many miseries.
2
Who cometh forth like a flower, and is destroyed, and fleeth as a shadow, and never continueth in the same state.
3
And dost thou think it meet to open thy eyes upon such an one, and to bring him into judgment with thee?
4
Who can make him clean that is conceived of unclean seed? is it not thou who only art?
5
The days of man are short, and the number of his months is with thee: thou hast appointed his bounds which cannot be passed.
6
Depart a little from him, that he may rest until his wished for day come, as that of the hireling.
