| 5 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Seeing his days are determined, The number of his months is with thee, And thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass; |
| 6 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Look away from him, that he may rest, Till he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his day. |

fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, And the stock thereof die in the ground; |

| 13 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, That thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, That thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me! |
