Translated from Hebrew and Greek with AI, then checked for clarity and fidelity.

1. Man born of a woman has few days and is full of turmoil.
2. He emerges like a blossom and is cut off, fleeing like a shadow without enduring.
3. Do you even open your eyes upon this one, and bring me into judgment with you?
4. Who can bring a clean one from an unclean? Not one.
5. Since his days are fixed, the number of his months is with you; you have appointed his bound and his decrees that he cannot pass.
6. Turn your gaze from him, that he may rest until he completes his day like a hireling.
7. For a tree there is hope: if it is cut down, it will still renew, and its fresh shoot will not fail.
8. Though its root ages in the earth, and its stock dies in the dust.
9. At the scent of water it will blossom and produce boughs like a plant.
10. Man dies and grows weak; indeed, man expires, and where is he?
11. As the waters fail from the sea, and the river becomes desolate and dries up.
12. So man lies down and does not arise until the heavens are gone; they will not wake nor rouse from their sleep.
13. Who will grant that you hide me in Sheol, conceal me until your anger turns, appoint an appointed time for me, and remember me!
14. If a man dies, will he live? I will wait through all the days of my hard service until my relief comes.
15. You would call, and I would answer you; you would long for the work of your hands.
16. But now you count my steps; do you not keep watch over my sin?
17. My transgression is sealed in a bundle, and you sew over my iniquity.
18. Yet a falling mountain decays, and a rock moves from its place.
19. Waters wear down stones; it washes away what grows from the dust of the earth, and you destroy man's hope.
20. You prevail over him forever, and he departs. You alter his face and send him away.
21. His sons are honored, but he does not know it, and they are brought low, but he does not perceive it of them.
22. But his flesh pains him, and his soul mourns over him.
