Consumed hath been a cloud, and it goeth, So he who is going down to Sheol cometh not up.

and now, he hath died, why is this -- I fast? am I able to bring him back again? I am going unto him, and he doth not turn back unto me.'

He hath turned against me terrors, It pursueth as the wind mine abundance, And as a thick cloud, Hath my safety passed away.

for we do surely die, and are as water which is running down to the earth, which is not gathered, and God doth not accept a person, and hath devised devices in that the outcast is not outcast by Him.

Before I go, and return not, Unto a land of darkness and death-shade,

Heights of the heavens! -- what dost thou? Deeper than Sheol! -- what knowest thou?

And a man dieth, and becometh weak, And man expireth, and where is he?

When a few years do come, Then a path I return not do I go.

Yea, by filling He doth press out a cloud, Scatter a cloud doth His light.

Look from me, and I brighten up before I go and am not!

I said, I do not see Jah -- Jah! In the land of the living, I do not behold man any more, With the inhabitants of the world.
