New Testament

Job 15:14-22 Modern English Version (MEV)

14. “What is man that he should be pure?And he who is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?

15. Behold, He puts no trust in His holy ones,and the heavens are not pure in His sight.

16. How much more abhorred and corrupt is man,who drinks iniquity like water!

17. “I will tell you; hear me,and what I have seen I will declare,

18. what wise men have told,not hiding anything received from their fathers,

19. to whom alone the land was given,and no foreigner passed among them:

20. The wicked man travails with pain all his days,and numbered are the years stored up for the oppressor.

21. A dreadful sound is in his ears;in prosperity the destroyer will come upon him.

22. He does not believe that he will return from darkness,and a sword awaits him.
