Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away:

Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.

Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.

As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:

The waters wear the stones: thou washest away the things which grow out of the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.

How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water?

Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.

Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.

He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.

Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned.

Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof.

He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.

He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.

Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.

To make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure.

My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch.

What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water?

For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:

By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened.

The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen.

Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee?

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
