Job 14:4 — Meaning and Application

He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.

Who can bring a clean {thing} out of an unclean? not one. {can...: Heb. will give}

Seeing his days {are} determined, the number of his months {are} with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;

Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his day. {rest: Heb. cease}
