< Job 25 >
1 Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
Then Baldad the Suhite answered, and I said:
2 “Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.
Power and terror are with him, who maketh peace in his high places.
3 Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?
Is there any numbering of his soldiers? and upon whom shall not his light arise?
4 How then can a man be just before God? How can one born of woman be pure?
Can man be justified compared with God, or he that is born of a woman appear clean?
5 If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,
Behold even the moon doth not shine, 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 rottenness and the son of man who is a worm?
