< Job 25 >

1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
2 Dominion and fear [are] with him, he maketh peace in his high places.
“Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.
3 Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?
Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?
4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean [that is] born of a woman?
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; and 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, [who is] a worm?
how much less man, who is but a maggot, and the son of man, who is but a worm!”
