Job 14:6 in context

Job 14:3–9

3

Do you open your eyes on such a one,

and bring me into judgment with you?

4

Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean?

Not one.

Seeing his days are determined,

the number of his months is with you,

and you have appointed his bounds that he can’t pass.

Selected verse

Look away from him, that he may rest,

until he accomplishes, as a hireling, his day.

7

“For there is hope for a tree if it is cut down,

that it will sprout again,

that the tender branch of it will not cease.

8

Though its root grows old in the earth,

and its stock dies in the ground,

9

yet through the scent of water it will bud,

and sprout boughs like a plant.
