< Job 25 >

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
2 “Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.
“Dominion and fear are with him. He makes peace in his high places.
3 Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?
Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?
4 How then can a man be just before God? How can one born of woman be pure?
How then can man be just with God? Or how can he who is born of a woman be clean?
5 If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,
Behold, even the moon has no brightness, and the stars are not pure in his sight;
6 how much less man, who is but a maggot, and the son of man, who is but a worm!”
How much less man, who is a worm, and the son of man, who is a worm!”
