< Job 25 >
1 Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said,
Ndipo Bildadi Mshuhi akajibu:
2 What beginning or fear is his—even he that makes all things in the highest?
“Mamlaka na kuheshimiwa ni vyake Mungu; yeye huthibitisha amani katika mbingu juu.
3 For let none think that there is a respite for robbers: and upon whom will there not come a snare from him?
Je, majeshi yake yaweza kuhesabika? Ni nani asiyeangaziwa na nuru yake?
4 For how shall a mortal be just before the Lord? or who that is born of a woman shall purify himself?
Mtu awezaje kuwa mwadilifu mbele za Mungu? Awezaje mtu aliyezaliwa na mwanamke kuwa safi?
5 If he gives an order to the moon, then it shines not; and the stars are not pure before him.
Ikiwa hata mwezi sio mwangavu nazo nyota si safi machoni pake,
6 But alas! man is corruption, and the son of man a worm.
sembuse mtu ambaye ni funza: mwanadamu ambaye ni buu tu!”
