Job 14:20 Context
18And surely the mountaine falling commeth to nought: and the rocke is remoued out of his place. 19The waters weare the stones, thou washest away the things which growe out of the dust of the earth, and thou destroyest the hope of man. 20Thou preuailest for euer against him, and hee passeth: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away. 21His sonnes come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought lowe, but he perceiueth it not of them. 22But his flesh vpon him shall haue paine, and his soule within him shall mourne.
