13. Oh that you would hide me in Sheol,that you would conceal me until your wrath be past,that you would appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14. If a man dies, shall he live again?All the days of my service I would wait,till my renewal should come.
15. You would call, and I would answer you;you would long for the work of your hands.
16. For then you would number my steps;you would not keep watch over my sin;
17. my transgression would be sealed up in a bag,and you would cover over my iniquity.
18. “But the mountain falls and crumbles away,and the rock is removed from its place;
19. the waters wear away the stones;the torrents wash away the soil of the earth;so you destroy the hope of man.
20. You prevail forever against him, and he passes;you change his countenance, and send him away.
21. His sons come to honor, and he does not know it;they are brought low, and he perceives it not.
22. He feels only the pain of his own body,and he mourns only for himself.”
