In context

⁶Look away from him and let him rest, so he can enjoy his day as a hired hand.

⁷For there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its tender shoots will not fail.

⁸If its roots grow old in the ground and its stump dies in the soil,

⁹At the scent of water it will bud and put forth twigs like a sapling.

¹⁰But a man dies and is laid low; he breathes his last, and where is he?
