< Job 25 >

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2 “Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.
Dominion and fear are with him; He maketh peace in his high places.
3 Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?
Is there any number of his armies? And upon whom doth not his light 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 be clean that is born of a woman?
5 If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,
Behold, even the moon hath 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, that is a worm! And the son of man, that is a worm!
