¹⁷ “Can mortals be righteous before^* God?
   Can human beings be pure before^* their Maker?
¹⁸ Even in his servants he puts no trust,
   and his angels he charges with error;
¹⁹ how much more those who live in houses of clay,
   whose foundation is in the dust,
   who are crushed like a moth.
²⁰ Between morning and evening they are destroyed;
   they perish for ever without any regarding it.
²¹ Their tent-cord is plucked up within them,
   and they die devoid of wisdom.”
