Job 25

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

Så tog Sjuhiten Bildad til Orde og sagde:

2 “Dominion and fear are with him; he makes order in his high places of heaven.

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

3 Is there any end to the number of his armies? Upon whom does his light not shine?

Er der mon Tal på hans Skarer? Mod hvem står ikke hans Baghold op?

4 How then can man be righteous with God? How can he who is born of a woman be clean, acceptable to him?

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

5 See, even the moon has no brightness to him; the stars are not pure in his sight.

Selv Månen er ikke klar i hans Øjne og Stjernerne ikke rene

6 How much less man, who is a worm— a son of man, who is a worm!”

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