約伯記 25

1 叔亞人彼耳達得發言說：

Then answered Bildad the Shuchite, and said,

2 權能和威嚴為他所有，他在高天締造和平。

Dominion and dread are with him: he maketh peace in high places.

3 他的隊伍，豈可勝數﹖他的光明升起，誰不蒙受照耀﹖

Can the number of his hosts be given? and over whom riseth not his light?

4 人在天主面前，怎能自以為義﹖婦人所生的，怎能自稱潔淨﹖

How then can man be justified with God? or how can be one that is born of woman?

5 在他眼中，月亮都不明亮，星辰也不皎潔，

Behold, even as regardeth the moon, that is not bright; yea, the stars are not pure in his eyes.

6 何況像蟲的人，像蛆的人子!

How much less the mortal, the mere worm? and the son of earth, the mere maggot?
