10. Both the gray-haired and the aged are among us,older than your father.
11. Are the comforts of God too small for you,or the word that deals gently with you?
12. Why does your heart carry you away,and why do your eyes flash,
13. that you turn your spirit against Godand bring such words out of your mouth?
14. What is man, that he can be pure?Or he who is born of a woman, that he can be righteous?
15. Behold, God puts no trust in his holy ones,and the heavens are not pure in his sight;
16. how much less one who is abominable and corrupt,a man who drinks injustice like water!
17. “I will show you; hear me,and what I have seen I will declare
18. (what wise men have told,without hiding it from their fathers,
19. to whom alone the land was given,and no stranger passed among them).
