1 Man 120 that is born 3205 of a woman 802 is of few 7116 days 3117, and full 7649 of trouble 7267.
2 He cometh forth 3318 like a flower 6731, and is cut down 5243: he fleeth 1272 also as a shadow 6738, and continueth 5975 not.
3 And dost thou open 6491 thine eyes 5869 upon such an one 2088, and bringest 935 me into judgment 4941 with thee?
4 Who can bring 5414 a clean 2889 thing out of an unclean 2931? not one 259.
5 Seeing 518 his days 3117 are determined 2782, the number 4557 of his months 2320 are with thee, thou hast appointed 6213 his bounds 2706 that he cannot pass 5674;
6 Turn 8159 from him, that he may rest 2308, till he shall accomplish 7521, as an hireling 7916, his day 3117.
7 For there is 3426 hope 8615 of a tree 6086, if it be cut down 3772, that it will sprout again 2498, and that the tender branch 3127 thereof will not cease 2308.
8 Though the root 8328 thereof wax old 2204 in the earth 776, and the stock 1503 thereof die 4191 in the ground 6083;
9 Yet through the scent 7381 of water 4325 it will bud 6524, and bring forth 6213 boughs 7105 like a plant 5194.
10 But man 1397 dieth 4191, and wasteth away 2522: yea, man 120 giveth up the ghost 1478, and where is he?
11 As the waters 4325 fail 235 from the sea 3220, and the flood 5104 decayeth 2717 and drieth up 3001:
12 So man 376 lieth down 7901, and riseth 6965 not: till the heavens 8064 be no more 1115, they shall not awake 6974, nor be raised out 5782 of their sleep 8142.
13 O that 5414 thou wouldest hide 6845 me in the grave 7585, that thou wouldest keep me secret 5641, until thy wrath 639 be past 7725, that thou wouldest appoint 7896 me a set time 2706, and remember 2142 me!
14 If a man 1397 die 4191, shall he live 2421 again? all the days 3117 of my appointed time 6635 will I wait 3176, till my change 2487 come 935.
15 Thou shalt call 7121, and I will answer 6030 thee: thou wilt have a desire 3700 to the work 4639 of thine hands 3027.
16 For now thou numberest 5608 my steps 6806: dost thou not watch 8104 over my sin 2403?
17 My transgression 6588 is sealed up 2856 in a bag 6872, and thou sewest up 2950 mine iniquity 5771.
18 And surely 199 the mountain 2022 falling 5307 cometh to nought 5034, and the rock 6697 is removed 6275 out of his place 4725.
19 The waters 4325 wear 7833 the stones 68: thou washest away 7857 the things which grow 5599 out of the dust 6083 of the earth 776; and thou destroyest 6 the hope 8615 of man 582.
20 Thou prevailest 8630 for ever 5331 against him, and he passeth 1980: thou changest 8138 his countenance 6440, and sendest him away 7971.
21 His sons 1121 come to honour 3513, and he knoweth 3045 it not; and they are brought low 6819, but he perceiveth 995 it not of them.
22 But his flesh 1320 upon him shall have pain 3510, and his soul 5315 within him shall mourn 56.
