< Job 25 >

1 Then answered Bildad the Shuchite, and said,
Then responded Bildad the Shuhite, and said: —
2 Dominion and dread are with him: he maketh peace in high places.
Dominion and dread, are with him, who causeth prosperity among his lofty ones;
3 Can the number of his hosts be given? and over whom riseth not his light?
Is there any number to his troops? And upon whom ariseth not his light?
4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can be one that is born of 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 as regardeth the moon, that is not bright; yea, the stars are not pure in his eyes.
Look as far as the moon, and it is not clear, and, the stars, are not bright in his eyes!
6 How much less the mortal, the mere worm? and the son of earth, the mere maggot?
How much less a mortal who is a creeping thing? Or a son of the earth-born who is a worm?
