BSB(i)
7 For there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its tender shoots will not fail.
8 If its roots grow old in the ground and its stump dies in the soil,
9 at the scent of water it will bud and put forth twigs like a sapling.
10 But a man dies and is laid low; he breathes his last, and where is he?
11 As water disappears from the sea and a river becomes parched and dry,
12 so a man lies down and does not rise. Until the heavens are no more, he will not be awakened or roused from sleep.
