SCRIPTURE

"Where then is my hope? And as for my hope, who shall see it?" — Job 17:15 (ASV)

And where is now my hope? — What hope have I of life? What possibility is there of my escape from death?

Who shall see it? — That is, who will see any hopes that I may now cherish fulfilled. If I cherish any, they will be disappointed, and no one will see them accomplished.
