Ayubu 25

1 Nake Bilidadi ũrĩa Mũshuhi agĩcookia atĩrĩ:

Then Bildad the Shuhite spoke up and said,

2 “Wathani na gwĩtigĩrwo nĩ cia Ngai; nĩwe ũhaandaga watho kũu igũrũ o igũrũ mũno.

“Dominion and awe belong to God. He brings peace to his heavens.

3 Mbũtũ ciake no itarĩke? Nũũ ũtaaragĩrwo nĩ ũtheri wake?

Who can count his armies? Is there anywhere his light doesn't shine?

4 Mũndũ aakĩhota atĩa gũkorwo arĩ mũthingu mbere ya Mũrungu? Mũndũ ũciarĩtwo nĩ mũndũ-wa-nja-rĩ, akĩhota atĩa gũtuĩka mũtheru?

How can a human being be right before God? Can anyone born of woman be pure?

5 Angĩkorwo o na mweri ti mũcangararu, na njata ti theru maitho-inĩ make-rĩ,

If in God's eyes even the moon does not shine brightly, and the stars are not pure,

6 mũndũ na no ta kĩgunyũ, o we mũrũ wa mũndũ-rĩ, ndakĩrĩ mũnyiihĩre mũno makĩrĩa!”

how much less a human being—who by comparison is like a maggot or a worm!”
