job 14:18 And surely the mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of his place. - Free Bible Online

job 14:18 "But the falling mountain crumbles away, And the rock moves from its place;


      18. cometh to naught--literally, "fadeth"; a poetical image from a leaf (Isa 34:4). Here Job falls back into his gloomy bodings as to the grave. Instead of "and surely," translate "yet"; marking the transition from his brighter hopes. Even the solid mountain falls and crumbles away; man therefore cannot "hope" to escape decay or to live again in the present world (Job 14:19).
      out of his place--so man (Ps 103:16).

JFB.
