Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;
Context
7 “For there is hope for a tree if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, that the tender branch of it will not cease.
8 Though its root grows old in the earth, and its stock dies in the ground,
9 yet through the scent of water it will bud, and sprout boughs like a plant.
