Job 14:19-22 English Standard Version (ESV)

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.”
