Job 14:7 In-Context

5 Our time is limited. You have given us only so many months to live and have set limits we cannot go beyond.

6 So look away from us and leave us alone until we put in our time like a laborer.

7 "If a tree is cut down, there is hope that it will grow again and will send out new branches.

8 Even if its roots grow old in the ground, and its stump dies in the dirt,

9 at the smell of water it will bud and put out new shoots like a plant.
