Job 14:14-16

Revised Standard Version

¹⁴ If a man die, shall he live again?
    All the days of my service I would wait,
    till my release should come.
¹⁵ Thou wouldest call, and I would answer thee;
    thou wouldest long for the work of thy hands.
¹⁶ For then thou wouldest number my steps,
    thou wouldest not keep watch over my sin;
