Ayub 25

1 Eka Bildad ja-Shua nodwoko Ayub niya,

Then Bildad [also] replied,

2 “Loch gi luor gin mag Nyasaye; okelo kwe e piny koa e polo.

“God is very powerful; everyone should have an awesome respect for him; he causes everything to be peaceful high up in heaven.

3 Bende nitiere ngʼama nyalo kwano jolweny mag Nyasaye? En ngʼa ma ok nyal neno ler Nyasaye karieny?

(Can anyone count the angels who are in his army [in heaven]?/No one can count the angels who are in his army [in heaven].) [RHQ] (Is there any place where his light does not shine?/There is no place where his light does not shine.) [RHQ]

4 Ka en kamano, to ere kaka dhano dibed ngʼat makare e nyim Nyasaye? Koso ere kaka dhano ma dhako onywolo nyalo bedo maler?

So, (how can God consider anyone to be righteous?/God certainly cannot consider anyone to be righteous.) [RHQ] (How can any human being be truly pure?/No human being can be truly pure.) [RHQ]

5 To ka kata mana dwe ema ok rieny maler bende kata mana sulwe ok ler e wangʼe,

Consider this: God does not even consider the full moon to be bright, and he does not consider the stars to be spotless.

6 to koro ere kaka dhano ma kudni akudani dichal e nyime?”

So, (what about humans?/he does not consider humans [to be important].) [RHQ] They are [as insignificant as] [MET] maggots. [God does not think more highly of] people [than he thinks of] worms.”
