< Job 25 >

1 And Bildad the Shuhite answers and says:
Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
2 “The rule and fear [are] with Him, Making peace in His high places.
“Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.
3 Is their [any] number to His troops? And on whom does His light not arise?
Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?
4 And what? Is man righteous with God? And what? Is he pure—born of a woman?
How then can a man be just before God? How can one born of woman be pure?
5 Behold—to the moon, and it does not shine, And stars have not been pure in His eyes.
If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,
6 How much less man—a grub, And the son of man—a worm!”
how much less man, who is but a maggot, and the son of man, who is but a worm!”
