Job 14:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ But when it smells water, it will begin to grow.
    It will send out new growth like a plant.
¹⁰ No man is like that. When he dies, he is buried in a grave.
    He takes his last breath. Then he is gone.
¹¹ Water dries up from lakes.
    Riverbeds become empty and dry.
