The Webster Bible
Job, Chapter 14

   1: Man [that is] born of a woman [is] of few days, and full of trouble.
   2: He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.
   3: And dost thou open thy eyes upon such one, and bring me into judgment with thee?
   4: Who can bring a clean [thing] out of an unclean? not one.
   5: Seeing his days [are] determined, the number of his months [is] with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
   6: Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his day.
   7: For there is hope of a tree, if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its tender branch will not cease.
   8: Though its root shall become old in the earth, and its stock 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: yes, man yieldeth his breath, 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 [shall be] no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
   13: O that thou wouldst hide me in the grave, that thou wouldst keep me secret, until thy wrath is past, that thou wouldst appoint me a set time, and remember me!
   14: If a man dieth, shall he live [again]? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change shall come.
   15: Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thy 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 my iniquity.
   18: And surely the mountain falling cometh to naught, and the rock is removed out of its 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.
   21: His sons come to honor, and he knoweth [it] not; and they are brought low, but he perceiveth [it] not of them.
   22: But his flesh upon him shall have pain, and his soul within him shall mourn.
