14. If a man dies, will he live again?All the days of my hard service I will waituntil my release comes.
15. You will call and I – I will answer you;you will long for the creature you have made.
16. “Surely now you count my steps;then you would not mark my sin.
17. My offenses would be sealed up in a bag;you would cover over my sin.
18. But as a mountain falls away and crumbles,and as a rock will be removed from its place,
19. as water wears away stones,and torrents wash away the soil,so you destroy man’s hope.
