< Job 25 >
1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and sayd,
Then Bildad [also] replied,
2 Power and feare is with him, that maketh peace in his hie places.
“God is very powerful; everyone should have an awesome respect for him; he causes everything to be peaceful high up in heaven.
3 Is there any nomber in his armies? and vpon whom shall not his light arise?
(Can anyone count the angels who are in his army [in heaven]?/No one can count the angels who are in his army [in heaven].) [RHQ] (Is there any place where his light does not shine?/There is no place where his light does not shine.) [RHQ]
4 And howe may a man be iustified with God? or how can he be cleane, that is borne of woman?
So, (how can God consider anyone to be righteous?/God certainly cannot consider anyone to be righteous.) [RHQ] (How can any human being be truly pure?/No human being can be truly pure.) [RHQ]
5 Behold, he wil giue no light to the moone, and the starres are vncleane in his sight.
Consider this: God does not even consider the full moon to be bright, and he does not consider the stars to be spotless.
6 How much more man, a worme, euen the sonne of man, which is but a worme?
So, (what about humans?/he does not consider humans [to be important].) [RHQ] They are [as insignificant as] [MET] maggots. [God does not think more highly of] people [than he thinks of] worms.”
