Job 14:4-7 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

4. Who can bring what is pure from the impure?No one!

5. A person’s days are determined;you have decreed the number of his monthsand have set limits he cannot exceed.

6. So look away from him and let him alone,till he has put in his time like a hired labourer.

7. ‘At least there is hope for a tree:if it is cut down, it will sprout again,and its new shoots will not fail.
