約伯記 25

1 書亞人比勒達回答說：

Then Bildad the Shuhite spoke up and said,

2 上帝有治理之權，有威嚴可畏； 他在高處施行和平。

“Dominion and awe belong to God. He brings peace to his heavens.

3 他的諸軍豈能數算？ 他的光亮一發，誰不蒙照呢？

Who can count his armies? Is there anywhere his light doesn't shine?

4 這樣在上帝面前，人怎能稱義？ 婦人所生的怎能潔淨？

How can a human being be right before God? Can anyone born of woman be pure?

5 在上帝眼前，月亮也無光亮， 星宿也不清潔。

If in God's eyes even the moon does not shine brightly, and the stars are not pure,

6 何況如蟲的人， 如蛆的世人呢！

how much less a human being—who by comparison is like a maggot or a worm!”
