Berean Standard Bible
Job 14:19
“As water wears away the stones and torrents wash away the soil, so You destroy a man’s hope.”
In context
17My transgression would be sealed in a bag, and You would cover over my iniquity.
18But as a mountain erodes and crumbles and a rock is dislodged from its place,
19As water wears away the stones and torrents wash away the soil, so You destroy a man’s hope.
20You forever overpower him, and he passes on; You change his countenance and send him away.
21If his sons receive honor, he does not know it; if they are brought low, he is unaware.
