Job 4:15-17

New Catholic Bible

¹⁵ A spirit brushed across my face,
    causing the hairs on my body to bristle.
¹⁶ It then halted,
    but I could not discern its shape.
An image was before my eyes,
    and then I heard a voice whisper:
¹⁷ “ ‘Can a human being appear upright in the presence of God?
    Can a mortal seem pure before its Maker?
