Job 14:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
14 1 Job describeth the shortness and misery of the life of man. 14 Hope sustaineth the godly. 21 The condition of man’s life.
1 Man [a]that is born of woman, is of short continuance and full of trouble.
2 He shooteth forth as a flower, and is cut down: he vanisheth also as a (A)shadow, and continueth not.
3 And yet thou openest thine eyes upon such [b]one, and causest me to enter into judgment with thee.
