< Job 25 >
1 Respondens autem Baldad Suhites, dixit:
And Bildad the Shuhite answers and says:
2 [Potestas et terror apud eum est, qui facit concordiam in sublimibus suis.
“The rule and fear [are] with Him, Making peace in His high places.
3 Numquid est numerus militum ejus? et super quem non surget lumen illius?
Is their [any] number to His troops? And on whom does His light not arise?
4 Numquid justificari potest homo comparatus Deo? aut apparere mundus natus de muliere?
And what? Is man righteous with God? And what? Is he pure—born of a woman?
5 Ecce luna etiam non splendet, et stellæ non sunt mundæ in conspectu ejus:
Behold—to the moon, and it does not shine, And stars have not been pure in His eyes.
6 quanto magis homo putredo, et filius hominis vermis?]
How much less man—a grub, And the son of man—a worm!”
