< Job 25 >

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite spoke up and said,
Nígbà náà ní Bilidadi, ará Ṣuhi, dáhùn wí pé,
2 “Dominion and awe belong to God. He brings peace to his heavens.
“Ìjọba àti ẹ̀rù ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run rẹ̀, òun ní i ṣe ìlàjà ní ibi gíga gíga ọ̀run.
3 Who can count his armies? Is there anywhere his light doesn't shine?
Àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ ha ní ìyè bí, tàbí ara ta ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ rẹ̀ kò tàn sí?
4 How can a human being be right before God? Can anyone born of woman be pure?
Èéha ti ṣe tí a ó fi dá ènìyàn láre lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run? Tàbí ẹni tí a bí láti inú obìnrin wá yóò ha ṣe mọ́?
5 If in God's eyes even the moon does not shine brightly, and the stars are not pure,
Kíyèsi i, òṣùpá kò sì lè tàn ìmọ́lẹ̀, àní àwọn ìràwọ̀ kò mọ́lẹ̀ ní ojú rẹ̀,
6 how much less a human being—who by comparison is like a maggot or a worm!”
kí a má sọ ènìyàn tí i ṣe ìdin, àti ọmọ ènìyàn tí í ṣe kòkòrò!”
