Job 25

1 Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said,

Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

2 What beginning or fear is his—even he that makes all things in the highest?

“Dominion and fear are with him; he makes order in his high places of heaven.

3 For let none think that there is a respite for robbers: and upon whom will there not come a snare from him?

Is there any end to the number of his armies? Upon whom does his light not shine?

4 For how shall a mortal be just before the Lord? or who that is born of a woman shall purify himself?

How then can man be righteous with God? How can he who is born of a woman be clean, acceptable to him?

5 If he gives an order to the moon, then it shines not; and the stars are not pure before him.

See, even the moon has no brightness to him; the stars are not pure in his sight.

6 But alas! man is corruption, and the son of man a worm.

How much less man, who is a worm— a son of man, who is a worm!”
