Chap. XIIII.
Againe Iob describeth the miseries of mans life. 3. Neuertheles Gods great
prouidence towards him. 7. professeth his beleefe of the Resurrection.
1 Man borne of note woman, liuing a short time, is replenished
with many mseiries.
2 Who as a flowre cometh
forth and is destroyed, & fleeth as a shadow, & neuer abideth
in the same state.
3 And doest thou counte it a worthy thing
to open thine eies vpon such an one, and to bring him with
thee into iudgement?
4 Who can make cleane him that is
conceiued of vncleane seede? is it not thou which onlie art?
5 The daies of man are short, & the number of his monethes
is with thee, thou hast appointed his limittes note which can
not be passed.
6 Depart a litle from him, that he may rest,
vntil his day wished for, come, euen as the hyred man.
7 A tree hath hope: if it be cut, it waxeth greene againe, and
the boughes thereof spring.
8 If his roote be old in the earth,
and the truncke therof be dead in the dust.
9 At the sent of
water it shal spring, and bring forth leaues, as when it was
-- --
first planted.
10 But when man shal be dead, and naked and
consumed, where is he I pray?
11 As if the waters should deparr
out of the sea, and a riuer made emptie should be dried
vp.
12 So man when he is a sleepe shal not rise agayne, til heauen
perish, he shal not awake, nor rise vp out of his sleepe.
13 Who wil grant me this, that in hel thou protect me, and
hide me, til thy furie passe, and appoynt me a time, wherin
thou wilt remember me?
14 Shal man that is dead, thinkest
thou, liue agayne? al the daies, in which I am now in warfare,
I expect vntil my change do come.
15 Thou shalt cal me, and
I shal answer thee: to the worke of thy handes thou shalt
reach thy right hand.
16 Thou in dede hast numbred my steppes:
but thou wilt spare my sinnes.
17 Thou hast sealed my
offences as it were in a bag, but hast cured mine iniquitie.
18 A
mountaine falling slideth downe, and a rock is remoued out
of his place.
19 Waters make stones holow, and with inundation
the earth by litle and litle is consumed: and men therfore
thou shalt destroy in like maner.
20 Thou hast strengthened
him a litle that he might passe away foreuer: thou shalt ch&abar;ge
his face, and shalt send him forth.
21 Whether his children
shal be noble, or vnnoble, he note shal not vnderstand.
22 But yet
his flesh whiles he shal liue shal haue sorow, & his soule shal
mourne vpon himself.
