Job 25

1 THEN answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

Saa tog Sjuhiten Bildad til Orde og sagde:

2 Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.

Hos ham er der Vælde og Rædsel, han skaber Fred i sin høje Bolig.

3 Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?

Er der mon Tal paa hans Skarer? Mod hvem staar ikke hans Baghold op?

4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

Hvor kan en Mand have Ret imod Gud, hvor kan en kvindefødt være ren?

5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.

Selv Maanen er ikke klar i hans Øjne og Stjernerne ikke rene,

6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?

endsige en Mand, det Kryb, et Menneskebarn, den Orm!
