1 Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble.
2 He comes forth like an open flower and is cut down; he flees as a shadow and does not remain.
3 And dost thou open thine eyes upon such a one and bring me into judgment with thee?
4 Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? No one.
5 Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass.
6 If thou should leave him, he will cease to exist; until then, he shall desire, as a hireling, his day.
