Job 14:17 in Context — Job 14

15 Tu appellerais alors, et je te répondrais, Tu languirais après l’ouvrage de tes mains.

16 Mais aujourd’hui tu comptes mes pas, Tu as l’œil sur mes péchés;

17 Mes transgressions sont scellées en un faisceau, Et tu imagines des iniquités à ma charge.

18 La montagne s’écroule et périt, Le rocher disparaît de sa place,

19 La pierre est broyée par les eaux, Et la terre emportée par leur courant; Ainsi tu détruis l’espérance de l’homme.
