New Testament

Job 15:7-16 Good News Bible (GNB)

7. Do you think you were the first person born?Were you there when God made the mountains?

8. Did you overhear the plans God made?Does human wisdom belong to you alone?

9. There is nothing you know that we don't know.

10. We learnt our wisdom from grey-haired people —those born before your father.

11. God offers you comfort; why still reject it?We have spoken for him with calm, even words.

12. But you are excited and glare at us in anger.

13. You are angry with God and denounce him.

14. Can any human being be really pure?Can anyone be right with God?

15. Why, God does not trust even his angels;even they are not pure in his sight.

16. And people drink evil as if it were water;yes, they are corrupt; they are worthless.
