6. Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his day.
7. For there is hope of a tree, if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its tender branch will not cease.
8. Though its root shall become old in the earth, and its stock die in the ground;
9. Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.
10. But man dieth, and wasteth away: yes, man yieldeth his breath, and where is he?
11. As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:
12. So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens shall be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
