Job 15:14-16
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 What are mortals, that they can be clean?
Or those born of woman, that they can be righteous?(A)
15 God puts no trust even in his holy ones,
and the heavens are not clean in his sight;(B)
16 how much less one who is abominable and corrupt,
one who drinks iniquity like water!(C)
Job 15:14-16
New Living Translation
14 Can any mortal be pure?
Can anyone born of a woman be just?
15 Look, God does not even trust the angels.[a]
Even the heavens are not absolutely pure in his sight.
16 How much less pure is a corrupt and sinful person
with a thirst for wickedness!
