Job 4:17-21

World English Bible

¹⁷ ‘Shall mortal man be more just than God?
    Shall a man be more pure than his Maker?
¹⁸ Behold, he puts no trust in his servants.
    He charges his angels with error.
¹⁹ How much more those who dwell in houses of clay,
    whose foundation is in the dust,
    who are crushed before the moth!
²⁰ Between morning and evening they are destroyed.
    They perish forever without any regarding it.
²¹ Isn’t their tent cord plucked up within them?
    They die, and that without wisdom.’
