Read in context

Job 14:16–20 · Berean Standard Bible

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.

20 You forever overpower him, and he passes on; You change his countenance and send him away.
