6. Depart a little from him, that he may rest, until his wished for day come, as that of the hireling.
7. A tree hath hope: if it be cut, it groweth green again, and the boughs thereof sprout.
8. If its root be old in the earth, and its stock be dead in the dust:
9. At the scent of water, it shall spring, and bring forth leaves, as when it was first planted.
10. But man when he shall be dead, and stripped and consumed, I pray you where is he?
