Job 25

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite spoke up and said,

Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

2 “Dominion and awe belong to God. He brings peace to his heavens.

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

3 Who can count his armies? Is there anywhere his light doesn't shine?

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

4 How can a human being be right before God? Can anyone born of woman be pure?

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

5 If in God's eyes even the moon does not shine brightly, and the stars are not pure,

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

6 how much less a human being—who by comparison is like a maggot or a worm!”

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