18. And indeed a mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of its place;
19. The waters wear the stones, the floods thereof wash away the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.
20. Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth away; thou changest his countenance, and dismissest him.
21. His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, and he perceiveth it not.
22. But his flesh hath pain for himself alone, and his soul mourneth for himself.
