Job 25

1 Then Bildad [also] replied,

Silloin vastasi Bildad Suasta ja sanoi:

2 “God is very powerful; everyone should have an awesome respect for him; he causes everything to be peaceful high up in heaven.

Hallitus ja pelko on hänen tykönänsä, joka tekee rauhan korkeittensa seassa.

3 (Can anyone count the angels who are in his army [in heaven]?/No one can count the angels who are in his army [in heaven].) [RHQ] (Is there any place where his light does not shine?/There is no place where his light does not shine.) [RHQ]

Kuka voi lukea hänen joukkonsa? ja kenen päälle ei paista hänen valkeutensa?

4 So, (how can God consider anyone to be righteous?/God certainly cannot consider anyone to be righteous.) [RHQ] (How can any human being be truly pure?/No human being can be truly pure.) [RHQ]

Kuinka on ihminen hurskas Jumalan edessä? eli kuinka vaimon lapsi on puhdas?

5 Consider this: God does not even consider the full moon to be bright, and he does not consider the stars to be spotless.

Katso, kuu ei valaise vielä, eikä tähdet ole vielä kirkkaat hänen silmäinsä edessä:

6 So, (what about humans?/he does not consider humans [to be important].) [RHQ] They are [as insignificant as] [MET] maggots. [God does not think more highly of] people [than he thinks of] worms.”

Kuinka paljo vähemmin ihminen, se mato, ja ihmisen lapsi se toukka?
