< Ayubu 25 >

1 Nake Bilidadi ũrĩa Mũshuhi agĩcookia atĩrĩ:
Then answered Bildad the Shuchite, and said,
2 “Wathani na gwĩtigĩrwo nĩ cia Ngai; nĩwe ũhaandaga watho kũu igũrũ o igũrũ mũno.
Dominion and dread are with him: he maketh peace in high places.
3 Mbũtũ ciake no itarĩke? Nũũ ũtaaragĩrwo nĩ ũtheri wake?
Can the number of his hosts be given? and over whom riseth not his light?
4 Mũndũ aakĩhota atĩa gũkorwo arĩ mũthingu mbere ya Mũrungu? Mũndũ ũciarĩtwo nĩ mũndũ-wa-nja-rĩ, akĩhota atĩa gũtuĩka mũtheru?
How then can man be justified with God? or how can be one that is born of woman?
5 Angĩkorwo o na mweri ti mũcangararu, na njata ti theru maitho-inĩ make-rĩ,
Behold, even as regardeth the moon, that is not bright; yea, the stars are not pure in his eyes.
6 mũndũ na no ta kĩgunyũ, o we mũrũ wa mũndũ-rĩ, ndakĩrĩ mũnyiihĩre mũno makĩrĩa!”
How much less the mortal, the mere worm? and the son of earth, the mere maggot?
