18:014:006 Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as
an hireling, his day.
18:014:007 For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
18:014:008 Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock
thereof die in the ground;
18:014:009 Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth
boughs like a plant.
18:014:010 But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost,
and where is he?
18:014:011 As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and
drieth up:
18:014:012 So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no
more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
18:014:013 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!
18:014:014 If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my
appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
18:014:015 Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a
desire to the work of thine hands.
