19. as water wears away stonesand torrents wash away the soil from the land,so You destroy a man’s hope.
20. You completely overpower him, and he passes on;You change his appearance and send him away.
21. If his sons receive honor, he does not know it;if they become insignificant, he is unaware of it.
22. He feels only the pain of his own bodyand mourns only for himself.
