14 What is man, that (A)he would be pure,
Or (B)he who is born of a woman, that he would be righteous?
15 Behold, He has no trust in His (C)holy ones,
And the (D)heavens are not pure in His sight;
16 How much less one who is (E)detestable and corrupt:
A person who (F)drinks [a]malice like water!

  1. Job 15:16 Or injustice

14 “What is mankind, that he can be blameless?
    Or does being born of a woman mean he’ll be in the right?
15 Look, if God[a] doesn’t trust his holy ones,[b]
    if even the heavens aren’t pure as he looks at them,
16 then how much less is one who is abhorred and corrupted,
    such as a man who drinks injustice like water?”
