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.’
Job 4:17-21
English Standard Version
17 (A)‘Can mortal man be in the right before[a] God?
Can a man be pure before his Maker?
18 Even in his servants (B)he puts no trust,
and his angels he charges with error;
19 how much more those who dwell in houses of (C)clay,
whose foundation is in (D)the dust,
who are crushed like[b] (E)the moth.
20 Between (F)morning and evening they are beaten to pieces;
they perish forever (G)without anyone regarding it.
21 Is not their tent-cord plucked up within them,
(H)do they not die, and that without wisdom?’
