5 Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months is with thee, and thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
6 Look away from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his day.

9 Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and put forth boughs like a plant.
10 But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
