Job 14:3

1 “Man, who is born of woman, is short of days and full of trouble.

2 Like a flower, he comes forth, then withers away; like a fleeting shadow, he does not endure.

Do You open Your eyes to one like this? Will You bring him into judgment before You?

4 Who can bring out clean from unclean? No one!

5 Since his days are determined and the number of his months is with You, and since You have set limits that he cannot exceed,

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
