Job 14:13-15
Easy-to-Read Version
13 “I wish you would hide me in my grave.
I wish you would hide me there, until your anger is gone.
Then you could pick a time to remember me.
14 If a man dies, will he live again?
If so, I would gladly suffer through this time waiting for my release.[a]
15 God, you would call me,
and I would answer you.
Then I, the one you made,
would be important to you.
