Job 14:11-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 As when the waters of a lake fail,
or a stream shrivels and dries up,
12 So mortals lie down, never to rise.
Until the heavens are no more, they shall not awake,
nor be roused out of their sleep.(A)
13 Oh, that you would hide me in Sheol,
shelter me till your wrath is past,
fix a time to remember me!
