Job 14:14-22 - Will We Humans Live Again?

14 If a human being dies, will he live again? I will endure the entire time of my assigned service, until I am changed. 15 You'll call and I'll answer you; you'll long for your creatures that your hands have made. 16 Then you'll certainly count every step I took, but you won't keep an inventory of my sin. 17 My transgressions would be sealed up in a bag; you would cover over my sins.

18 "Mountains fall and crumble; rocks are dislodged from their places. 19 Water wears away stones; floods wash away topsoil from the land but you destroy the hope of human beings just like that! 20 You overpower him once and for all, and then he departs; you change his appearance and then send him away. 21 "If his children are honored, he doesn't know it; if they become insignificant, he never perceives it. 22 He feels only his own pain, and grieves only for himself."
