Orthodox Jewish Bible

Iyov 14:1-6 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. Adam that is born of isha is of few yamim and full of rogez (unrest).

2. He cometh forth like a tzitz (flower), and is cut down; he fleeth also as a tzel, and continueth not.

3. And doth Thou open Thine eyes upon such a one, and bringest me into mishpat with Thee?

4. Who can bring a tahor (clean thing) out of a tameh (an unclean, cf Ro 5:12)? Loh echad (No one).

5. Seeing his yamim are determined, the number of his chodashim (months) are with Thee, Thou hast appointed his limits that he cannot exceed.

6. Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as a sachir (a hired man), his day.
