< Job 25 >
1 Then Baldad the Suhite answered by saying:
Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,
2 Power and terror are with him that makes a pact with those in high places.
Rule and power are his; he makes peace in his high places.
3 Is there any limit to the number of his soldiers or to the number of those over whom his light rises?
Is it possible for his armies to be numbered? and on whom is not his light shining?
4 Is it right for man to compare himself to God, or to appear pure though he is born of woman?
How then is it possible for man to be upright before God? or how may he be clean who is a son of woman?
5 Behold, even the moon is not radiant, and the stars are not pure, in his sight.
See, even the moon is not bright, and the stars are not clean in his eyes:
6 Is man much more than rottenness and the son of man much more than worms?
How much less man who is an insect, and the son of man who is a worm!
