English Standard Version

12 so he lies down and does not rise;

till the heavens are no more, people will not awake

or be roused from their sleep.

13 “If only you would hide me in the grave

and conceal me till your anger has passed!

If only you would set me a time

and then remember me!

14 If someone dies, will they live again?

All the days of my hard service

I will wait for my renewal to come.

12 So man lieth down, and riseth not:

Till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake,

Nor be raised out of their sleep.

13 O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave,

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 live again?

All the days of my appointed time will I wait,

Till my change come.

12 people are laid to rest and do not rise again.

Until the heavens are no more, they will not wake up

nor be roused from their sleep.

13 “I wish you would hide me in the grave

and forget me there until your anger has passed.

But mark your calendar to think of me again!

14 Can the dead live again?

If so, this would give me hope through all my years of struggle,

and I would eagerly await the release of death.

12 So man lies down and does not rise.

Till the heavens are no more,

They will not awake

Nor 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.

12 In the same way, we lie down and do not rise again;

we will not get up or be awakened

until the heavens disappear.

13 “I wish you would hide me in the grave;

hide me until your anger is gone.

I wish you would set a time

and then remember me!

14 Will the dead live again?

All my days are a struggle;

I will wait until my change comes.

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 live again?

All the days of my warfare would I wait,

Till my release should come.

12 So man lieth down, and riseth not again; till the heavens be no more, they do not awake, nor are raised out of their sleep. 13 Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, that thou wouldest keep me secret until thine anger be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me, — 14 (If a man die, shall he live again?) all the days of my time of toil would I wait, till my change should come:

12 so each person lies down 

and does not rise until the heavens cease to exist. 

He does not wake up. 

He is not awakened from his sleep. 

13 I wish you would hide me in Sheol 

and keep me hidden there until your anger cools. 

Set a specific time for me when you will remember me. 

14 “If a person dies, will he go on living? 

I will wait for my relief to come 

as long as my hard labor continues. 

12 so man lies down never to rise again.

They will not wake up until the heavens are no more;

they will not stir from their sleep.

13 If only You would hide me in Sheol

and conceal me until Your anger passes.

If only You would appoint a time for me

and then remember me.

14 When a man dies, will he come back to life?

If so, I would wait all the days of my struggle

until my relief comes.

12 so mortals lie down and do not rise again;

until the heavens are no more, they will not awake

or be roused out of their sleep.

13 O that you would hide me in Sheol,

that you would conceal me until your wrath is past,

that you would appoint me a set time and remember me!

14 If mortals die, will they live again?

All the days of my service I would wait

until my release should come.

12 so a man lies down, and he does not arise.

Until the heavens are no more, they will not awaken,

and they will not be roused out of their sleep.

13 “O that you would conceal me in Sheol,

that you would hide me until your wrath is past,

that you would appoint a set time for me and remember me.

14 If a man dies, will he live again?

All the days of my compulsory service I will wait,

until the coming of my relief.

12 In the same way, a man lies down and never gets up.

He won’t wake up or rise from his sleep

until the heavens are gone.

13 “I wish you would hide me in a grave!

I wish you would cover me up until your anger passes by!

I wish you would set the time for me to spend in the grave

and then bring me back up!

14 If a man dies, will he live again?

All the days of my hard work

I will wait for the time when you give me new life.

12 So man lies down and does not rise.

Until the heavens are no longer,

He will not awake nor be aroused out of his sleep.

13 “Oh that You would hide me in Sheol,

That You would conceal me until Your wrath returns to You,

That You would set a limit for me and remember me!

14 “If a man dies, will he live again?

All the days of my struggle I will wait

Until my change comes.
