Job 25

1 And Bildad the Shuhite answereth and saith: —

Bilidadi, moto ya Shuwa, azwaki maloba mpe alobaki:

2 The rule and fear [are] with Him, Making peace in His high places.

« Bokonzi mpe somo ezali ya Nzambe; atiaka kimia na bisika na Ye ya likolo.

3 Is their [any] number to His troops? And on whom ariseth not His light?

Boni, bakoki kotanga mampinga na Ye ya lola? Na likolo ya nani pole ya Nzambe engengaka te?

4 And what? is man righteous with God? And what? is he pure — born of a woman?

Ndenge nini moto akoki kozala sembo na miso ya Nzambe? Ndenge nini moto oyo abotami na mwasi akoki kozala peto?

5 Lo — unto the moon, and it shineth not, And stars have not been pure in His eyes.

Soki kutu sanza ezali kongenga te, mpe minzoto ezali peto te, na miso na Ye,

6 How much less man — a grub, And the son of man — a worm!

toloba nini mpo na moto oyo azali se mutsopi, mpo na mwana na moto oyo azali kaka nyama moke ya pamba! »
