Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
2 Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.

How then can a man be just before God? How can one born of woman be pure?
5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,
6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
how much less man, who is but a maggot, and the son of man, who is but a worm!”
