New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 4
17 ‘Can a mortal be innocent before God? Can anyone be pure before the Creator?’
18 “If God does not trust his own angels and has charged his messengers with foolishness,
19 how much less will he trust people made of clay! They are made of dust, crushed as easily as a moth.
20 They are alive in the morning but dead by evening, gone forever without a trace.
21 Their tent-cords are pulled and the tent collapses, and they die in ignorance.
Job 5
1 “Cry for help, but will anyone answer you? Which of the angels will help you?
2 Surely resentment destroys the fool, and jealousy kills the simple.
3 I have seen that fools may be successful for the moment, but then comes sudden disaster.
4 Their children are abandoned far from help; they are crushed in court with no one to defend them.
5 The hungry devour their harvest, even when it is guarded by brambles. The thirsty pant after their wealth.
6 But evil does not spring from the soil, and trouble does not sprout from the earth.
