14 What is man that he should be clean and that he that is born of a woman should be justified?
15 Behold, he puts no trust in his saints, and not even the heavens are clean in his sight.
16 How much less the man who is abominable and filthy, who drinks iniquity like water?
17 Listen to me and I will show thee and declare unto thee that which I have seen,
18 that which the wise men have told us of their fathers and have not hid it,
19 unto whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger passed among them.
20 The wicked man travails with pain all his days, and the number of years is hidden from the violent.
