Job 4:15-21 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

15. And when a spirit passed before me, the hair on my body stood up.

16. There appeared an image before my eyes, someone whose face I did not recognize, and I heard a voice like a gentle breeze.

17. Should man be justified in relation to God, or will a man be more pure than his Maker?

18. Behold, those who serve him are not steadfast, and in his angels he finds imperfection.

19. How much more will those who live in houses of clay, which have an earthly foundation, be consumed like the moth?

20. From morning all the way to evening, they will be cut down, and because no one understands, they will be destroyed without ceasing.

21. But those who are left behind will be taken away from them; they will die, and not in wisdom.
