Job 14:15–19 · Berean Standard Bible

15 You will call, and I will answer; You will desire the work of Your hands.

16 For then You would count my steps, but would not keep track of my sin.

17 My transgression would be sealed in a bag, and You would cover over my iniquity.

18 But as a mountain erodes and crumbles and a rock is dislodged from its place,

19 as water wears away the stones and torrents wash away the soil, so You destroy a man’s hope.
