Job 5:26

26 You shall come to your grave in ^bripe old age,
like a sheaf gathered up in its season.

Job 42:17

17 And Job died, an old man, and ^cfull of days.

Isaiah 65:20-22

20 No more shall there be in it
an infant who lives but a few days,
or an old man who does not fill out his days,
for ^dthe young man shall die a hundred years old,
and ^ethe sinner a hundred years old shall be accursed.
21 ^fThey shall build houses and inhabit them;
they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
22 ^gThey shall not build and another inhabit;
they shall not plant and another eat;
^hfor like the days of a tree shall the days of my people be,
and my chosen shall long enjoy ^{▼▼Hebrew shall wear out} the work of their hands.

Lamentations 2:20-22

20 Look, O Lord, and see!
^jWith whom have you dealt thus?
^kShould women eat the fruit of their womb,
the children of ^ltheir tender care?
Should ^mpriest and prophet be killed
in the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 In the dust of the streets
ⁿlie the young and the old;
^omy young women and my young men
have fallen by the sword;
^pyou have killed them in the day of your anger,
slaughtering ^qwithout pity.
22 You summoned as if to ^ra festival day
^smy terrors on every side,
^tand on the day of the anger of the Lord
no one escaped or survived;
^uthose whom I held and raised
my enemy destroyed.

Lamentations 5:11-15

11 Women are raped in Zion,
young women in the towns of Judah.
12 ^vPrinces are hung up by their hands;
^wno respect is shown to the elders.
13 Young men are compelled to ^xgrind at the mill,
and boys stagger ^yunder loads of wood.
14 ^zThe old men have left the city gate,
the young men ^aatheir music.
15 ^abThe joy of our hearts has ceased;
^acour dancing has been turned to mourning.
