< Job 25 >

1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said:
Then responded Bildad the Shuhite, and said: —
2 Dominion and fear are with Him; He maketh peace in His high places.
Dominion and dread, are with him, who causeth prosperity among his lofty ones;
3 Is there any number of His armies? And upon whom doth not His light arise?
Is there any number to his troops? And upon whom ariseth not his light?
4 How then can man be just with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
How then shall, a mortal, be just with GOD? Or how shall he be pure who is born of a woman?
5 Behold, even the moon hath no brightness, and the stars are not pure in His sight;
Look as far as the moon, and it is not clear, and, the stars, are not bright in his eyes!
6 How much less man, that is a worm! and the son of man, that is a maggot!
How much less a mortal who is a creeping thing? Or a son of the earth-born who is a worm?
