NIVNew International Version (2011)
‘Can a mortal be more righteous than God?
Can even a strong man be more pure than his Maker?
If God places no trust in his servants,
if he charges his angels with error,
how much more those who live in houses of clay,
whose foundations are in the dust,
who are crushed more readily than a moth!

“Can a mortal be righteous before God?
Can a man be more pure than his Maker?”
If God puts no trust in his servants
and he charges his angels with foolishness,
how much more those who dwell in clay houses,
whose foundation is in the dust,
who are crushed like a moth!

NLTNew Living Translation
‘Can a mortal be innocent before God?
Can anyone be pure before the Creator?’
“If God does not trust his own angels
and has charged his messengers with foolishness,
how much less will he trust people made of clay!
They are made of dust, crushed as easily as a moth.

‘Can a human being be more righteous than God,
or can a man be more pure than his Maker?
Look, he does not trust in his servants
and he charges his angels with error.
How much more dwellers in clay houses,
whose foundation is in the dust?
They are crushed like a moth.

KJV 1900King James Version
Shall mortal man be more just than God?
Shall a man be more pure than his maker?
Behold, he put no trust in his servants;
And his angels he charged with folly:
How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay,
Whose foundation is in the dust,
Which are crushed before the moth?
