8If its root becometh old in the earth, And its stem doth die in the dust,

7 For there is of a tree hope, if it be cut down, That again it doth change, That its tender branch doth not cease.

8 If its root becometh old in the earth, And its stem doth die in the dust,

9 From the fragrance of water it doth flourish, And hath made a crop as a plant.

10 And a man dieth, and becometh weak, And man expireth, and where is he?
