Job 4:19-21
New International Version
19 how much more those who live in houses of clay,(A)
whose foundations(B) are in the dust,(C)
who are crushed(D) more readily than a moth!(E)
20 Between dawn and dusk they are broken to pieces;
unnoticed, they perish forever.(F)
21 Are not the cords of their tent pulled up,(G)
so that they die(H) without wisdom?’(I)

19 How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth?
20 They are destroyed from morning to evening: they perish for ever without any regarding it.
21 Doth not their excellency which is in them go away? they die, even without wisdom.
