Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2 “Dominion and awe belong to God. He brings peace to his heavens.
Dominion and fear [are] with him, he maketh peace in his high places.
3 Who can count his armies? Is there anywhere his light doesn't shine?

Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; and 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, [that is] a worm; and the son of man, [who is] a worm?
