Ioba 25

1 A LAILA olelo aku la o Biledada, no Suha, i aku la,

And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

2 Ia ia no ke alii ana a me ka makaulia, A hana no ia i ke kuikahi ma kona mau wahi kiekie.

Dominion and fear are with him; he maketh peace in his high places.

3 Ua heluia anei kona mau poe koa? A maluna owai la i puka ole mai ai kona malamalama?

Is there any number of his troops? and upon whom doth not his light arise?

4 A pehea la e hoaponoia'i ke kanaka imua o ke Akua? A pehea la e maemae ai ka mea i hanauia e ka wahine?

And how should man be just with God? Or how should he be clean that is born of a woman?

5 E nana i ka mahina, aole ia e aiai; A o na hoku aole e maemae imua o kona maka:

Lo, even the moon is not bright; and the stars are not pure in his sight:

6 Pehea la hoi ke kanaka, he enuhe; A me ke keiki a ke kanaka, he ilo?

How much less man, a worm, and the son of man, a worm!
