5 Seeing his days are determined, The number of his months is with you, And you have appointed his bounds that he can't pass;
6 Look away from him, that he may rest, Until he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his day.
7 'For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, That the tender branch of it will not cease.
8 Though the root of it grows old in the earth, And the stock of it dies in the ground;
9 Yet through the scent of water it will bud, And put forth boughs like a plant.
