< Job 25 >

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
Nake Bilidadi ũrĩa Mũshuhi agĩcookia atĩrĩ:
2 “Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.
“Wathani na gwĩtigĩrwo nĩ cia Ngai; nĩwe ũhaandaga watho kũu igũrũ o igũrũ mũno.
3 Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?
Mbũtũ ciake no itarĩke? Nũũ ũtaaragĩrwo nĩ ũtheri wake?
4 How then can a man be just before God? How can one born of woman be pure?
Mũndũ aakĩhota atĩa gũkorwo arĩ mũthingu mbere ya Mũrungu? Mũndũ ũciarĩtwo nĩ mũndũ-wa-nja-rĩ, akĩhota atĩa gũtuĩka mũtheru?
5 If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,
Angĩkorwo o na mweri ti mũcangararu, na njata ti theru maitho-inĩ make-rĩ,
6 how much less man, who is but a maggot, and the son of man, who is but a worm!”
mũndũ na no ta kĩgunyũ, o we mũrũ wa mũndũ-rĩ, ndakĩrĩ mũnyiihĩre mũno makĩrĩa!”
