11. As water disappears from the sea,And a river becomes parched and dries up,
12. So man lies down and does not rise.Till the heavens are no more,They will not awakeNor be roused from their sleep.
13. “Oh, that You would hide me in the grave,That You would conceal me until Your wrath is past,That You would appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14. If a man dies, shall he live again?All the days of my hard service I will wait,Till my change comes.
