King James Version with Apocrypha
"As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:"
— Job 14:11, King James Version with Apocrypha
“As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:”
“Asthe waters fail from the sea, And the river wasteth and drieth up; ”
“As the waters fail from the sea, and the river wastes and dries up,”
“As water disappears from the sea, or a river drains away and dries up,”
“As if the waters should depart out of the sea, and an emptied river should be dried up;”
“The waters go from a pool, and a river becomes waste and dry;”
Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;
Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.
But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:
So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
