Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,

Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;

Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;

Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his day.

And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.

And Jacob their father said unto them, Me have ye bereaved of my children: Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Benjamin away: all these things are against me.

But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?

So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
