2	כְּצִ֣יץ יָ֭צָא וַיִּמָּ֑ל וַיִּבְרַ֥ח כַּ֝צֵּ֗ל וְלֹ֣א יַעֲמֽוֹד׃	He comes out like a flower and withers; he flees like a shadow and continues not.	They spring up like flowers and wither away; like fleeting shadows, they do not endure.
3	אַף־ עַל־ זֶ֭ה פָּקַ֣חְתָּ עֵינֶ֑ךָ וְאֹ֘תִ֤י תָבִ֖יא בְמִשְׁפָּ֣ט עִמָּֽךְ׃	And do you open your eyes on such a one and bring me into judgment with you?	Do you fix your eye on them? Will you bring them before you for judgment?
4	מִֽי־ יִתֵּ֣ן טָ֭הוֹר מִטָּמֵ֗א לֹ֣א אֶחָֽד׃	Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? There is not one.	Who can bring what is pure from the impure? No one!
5	אִ֥ם חֲרוּצִ֨ים ׀ יָמָ֗יו מִֽסְפַּר־ חֳדָשָׁ֥יו אִתָּ֑ךְ [חקו] (חֻקָּ֥יו) עָ֝שִׂ֗יתָ וְלֹ֣א יַעֲבֽוֹר׃	Since his days are determined, and the number of his months is with you, and you have appointed his limits that he cannot pass,	A person’s days are determined; you have decreed the number of his months and have set limits he cannot exceed.
6	שְׁעֵ֣ה מֵעָלָ֣יו וְיֶחְדָּ֑ל עַד־ יִ֝רְצֶ֗ה כְּשָׂכִ֥יר יוֹמֽוֹ׃	look away from him and leave him alone, that he may enjoy, like a hired hand, his day.	So look away from him and let him alone, till he has put in his time like a hired laborer.
7	כִּ֤י יֵ֥שׁ לָעֵ֗ץ תִּ֫קְוָ֥ה אִֽם־ יִ֭כָּרֵת וְע֣וֹד יַחֲלִ֑יף וְ֝יֹֽנַקְתּ֗וֹ לֹ֣א תֶחְדָּֽל׃	“For there is hope for a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its shoots will not cease.	“At least there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its new shoots will not fail.
8	אִם־ יַזְקִ֣ין בָּאָ֣רֶץ שָׁרְשׁ֑וֹ וּ֝בֶעָפָ֗ר יָמ֥וּת גִּזְעֽוֹ׃	Though its root grow old in the earth, and its stump die in the soil,	Its roots may grow old in the ground and its stump die in the soil,
9	מֵרֵ֣יחַ מַ֣יִם יַפְרִ֑חַ וְעָשָׂ֖ה קָצִ֣יר כְּמוֹ־ נָֽטַע׃	yet at the scent of water it will bud and put out branches like a young plant.	yet at the scent of water it will bud and put forth shoots like a plant.

11	אָֽזְלוּ־ מַ֭יִם מִנִּי־ יָ֑ם וְ֝נָהָ֗ר יֶחֱרַ֥ב וְיָבֵֽשׁ׃	As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up,	As the water of a lake dries up or a riverbed becomes parched and dry,
12	וְאִ֥ישׁ שָׁכַ֗ב וְֽלֹא־ יָ֫ק֥וּם עַד־ בִּלְתִּ֣י שָׁ֭מַיִם לֹ֣א יָקִ֑יצוּ וְלֹֽא־ יֵ֝עֹ֗רוּ מִשְּׁנָתָֽם׃	so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more he will not awake or be roused out of his sleep.	so he lies down and does not rise; till the heavens are no more, people will not awake or be roused from their sleep.
13	מִ֤י יִתֵּ֨ן ׀ בִּשְׁא֬וֹל תַּצְפִּנֵ֗נִי תַּ֭סְתִּירֵנִי עַד־ שׁ֣וּב אַפֶּ֑ךָ תָּ֤שִׁ֥ית לִ֖י חֹ֣ק וְתִזְכְּרֵֽנִי׃	Oh that you would hide me in Sheol, that you would conceal me until your wrath be past, that you would appoint me a set time, and remember me!	“If only you would hide me in the grave and conceal me till your anger has passed! If only you would set me a time and then remember me!
14	אִם־ יָמ֥וּת גֶּ֗בֶר הֲיִ֫חְיֶ֥ה כָּל־ יְמֵ֣י צְבָאִ֣י אֲיַחֵ֑ל עַד־ בּ֝֗וֹא חֲלִיפָתִֽי׃	If a man dies, shall he live again? All the days of my service I would wait, till my renewal should come.

15	תִּ֭קְרָא וְאָנֹכִ֣י אֶֽעֱנֶ֑ךָּ לְֽמַעֲשֵׂ֖ה יָדֶ֣יךָ תִכְסֹֽף׃	You would call, and I would answer you; you would long for the work of your hands.	You will call and I will answer you; you will long for the creature your hands have made.
16	כִּֽי־ עַ֭תָּה צְעָדַ֣י תִּסְפּ֑וֹר לֹֽא־ תִ֝שְׁמ֗וֹר עַל־ חַטָּאתִֽי׃	For then you would number my steps; you would not keep watch over my sin;	Surely then you will count my steps but not keep track of my sin.
17	חָתֻ֣ם בִּצְר֣וֹר פִּשְׁעִ֑י וַ֝תִּטְפֹּ֗ל עַל־ עֲוֺנִֽי׃	my transgression would be sealed up in a bag, and you would cover over my iniquity.	My offenses will be sealed up in a bag; you will cover over my sin.
18	וְ֭אוּלָם הַר־ נוֹפֵ֣ל יִבּ֑וֹל וְ֝צ֗וּר יֶעְתַּ֥ק מִמְּקֹמֽוֹ׃	“But the mountain falls and crumbles away, and the rock is removed from its place;	“But as a mountain erodes and crumbles and as a rock is moved from its place,
19	אֲבָנִ֤ים ׀ שָׁ֥חֲקוּ מַ֗יִם תִּשְׁטֹֽף־ סְפִיחֶ֥יהָ עֲפַר־ אָ֑רֶץ וְתִקְוַ֖ת אֱנ֣וֹשׁ הֶאֱבַֽדְתָּ׃	the waters wear away the stones; the torrents wash away the soil of the earth; so you destroy the hope of man.	as water wears away stones and torrents wash away the soil, so you destroy a person’s hope.
20	תִּתְקְפֵ֣הוּ לָ֭נֶצַח וַֽיַּהֲלֹ֑ךְ מְשַׁנֶּ֥ה פָ֝נָ֗יו וַֽתְּשַׁלְּחֵֽהוּ׃	You prevail forever against him, and he passes; you change his countenance, and send him away.	You overpower them once for all, and they are gone; you change their countenance and send them away.
21	יִכְבְּד֣וּ בָ֭נָיו וְלֹ֣א יֵדָ֑ע וְ֝יִצְעֲר֗וּ וְֽלֹא־ יָבִ֥ין לָֽמוֹ׃	His sons come to honor, and he does not know it; they are brought low, and he perceives it not.	If their children are honored, they do not know it; if their offspring are brought low, they do not see it.
22	אַךְ־ בְּ֭שָׂרוֹ עָלָ֣יו יִכְאָ֑ב וְ֝נַפְשׁ֗וֹ עָלָ֥יו תֶּאֱבָֽל׃ פ	He feels only the pain of his own body, and he mourns only for himself.”	They feel but the pain of their own bodies and mourn only for themselves.”
