- "Man who is born of woman is of few
days and full of trouble. (Eccl.
2:23)
- He comes forth like
a flower and
fades away; he flees like
a shadow and does not continue. (Job
8:9; Ps. 144:4;
James 1:10)
- And do You open Your
eyes on such a
one, (Ps. 8:4;
Ps. 144:3)
and bring me to
judgement with Yourself? (Ps.
143:2)
- Who can bring a
clean thing out of
an unclean? No one! (Ps.
51:2; Ps. 51:5;
Ps. 51:10)
- Since his days are
determined, the
number of his months is with You; You have appointed his limits, so
that he cannot pass. (Job
7:1; Job 21:21; Ps. 31:15)
- Look away from him
that he may
rest, (Ps. 39:13) till like a hired man he finishes his day. (Job 7:1; Job 7:16)
- For there is hope
for a tree,
if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its tender
shoots will not cease.
- Though its root may
grow old in the
earth, and its stump may die in the ground,
- Yet at the scent of
water it will
bud and bring forth branches like a plant.
- But man dies and is
laid away;
indeed he breathes his last and where is he? (Ps. 39:13)
- As water disappears
from the sea,
and a river becomes parched and dries up,
- So man lies down
and does not
rise. Till the heavens are no more, they will not awake nor be
roused from their sleep. (Job 15:22; Is. 51:6; Is. 65:17; Is. 66:22)
- "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!
- If a man dies,
shall he live
again? All the days of my hard service I will wait, till my
change comes. (Job 13:15)
- You shall call, and
I will answer
You; You shall desire the work of Your hands. (Job 13:22)
- For now You number
my steps, but
do not watch over my sin. (Ps.
139:3; Prov. 5:21)
- My transgression is
sealed up in a
bag, (Deut.
32:32-34)
and You cover my iniquity, (Job
9:30;
Jer.
2:22)
- "But as a mountain
falls and
crumbles away, and as a rock is moved from its place;
- As water wears away
stones, and as torrents wash away the soil of the earth; so You destroy the hope of
man. (Job 17:15; Job 22:16)
- You prevail forever
against him,
and he passes on; You change his countenance and send him away.
- His sons come to
honour, and he
does not know it; they are brought low, and he does not perceive it.
- But his flesh will
be pain over
it, and his soul will mourn over it."
