New Testament

Job 14:10-17 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

10. Humans are different—we die, and that's the end.

11. We are like streams and lakesafter the water has gone;

12. we fall into the sleep of death,never to rise again,until the sky disappears.

13. Please hide me, God,deep in the ground—and when you are angry no more,remember to rescue me.

14. Will we humans live again?I would gladly sufferand wait for my time.

15. My Creator, you would want me;you would call out,and I would answer.

16. You would take care of me,but not count my sins—

17. you would put them in a bag,tie it tight,and toss them away.
