Job 14:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶So look away from us and ·leave us alone [stop; desist]
until we put in our time like a laborer [^Cuntil death].

⁷“If a tree is cut down,
    there is hope that it will grow again
    and will send out new ·branches [shoots].
⁸Even if its roots grow old in the ground,
    and its stump dies in the ·dirt [dust],
