    Job 14
    • 1   Man, that is born of a woman, Is of few days, and full of trouble.
    • 2   He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: He fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.
    • 3   And dost thou open thine eyes upon such a one, And bringest me into judgment with thee?
    • 4   Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
    • 5   Seeing his days are determined, The number of his months is with thee, And thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
    • 6   Look away from him, that he may rest, Till he shall accomplish, as a hireling, his day.
    • 7   For there is hope of a tree, If it be cut down, that it will sprout again, And that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
    • 8   Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, And the stock thereof die in the ground;
    • 9   Yet through the scent of water it will bud, And put forth boughs like a plant.
    • 10   But man dieth, and is laid low: Yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
    • 11   Asthe waters fail from the sea, And the river wasteth and drieth up;
    • 12   So man lieth down and riseth not: Till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, Nor be roused out of their sleep.
    • 13   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!
    • 14   If a man die, shall he liveagain? All the days of my warfare would I wait, Till my release should come.
    • 15   Thou wouldest call, and I would answer thee: Thou wouldest have a desire to the work of thy hands.
    • 16   But now thou numberest my steps: Dost thou not watch over my sin?
    • 17   My transgression is sealed up in a bag, And thou fastenest up mine iniquity.
    • 18   But the mountain falling cometh to nought; And the rock is removed out of its place;
    • 19   The waters wear the stones; The overflowings thereof wash away the dust of the earth: So thou destroyest the hope of man.
    • 20   Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth; Thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.
    • 21   His sons come to honor, and he knoweth it not; And they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.
    • 22   But his flesh upon him hath pain, And his soul within him mourneth.

    The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.

    The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.

    While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.

    Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.
