Job 14:12

Job Continues To Argue His Case With God

¹¹ As water disappears from the sea
and a river becomes parched and dry,
¹² so man lies down never to rise again.
They will not wake up until the heavens are no more;
they will not stir from their sleep. ¹³ If only You would hide me in Sheol
and conceal me until Your anger passes.
If only You would appoint a time for me
and then remember me.
