< Job 25 >

1 Respondens autem Baldad Suhites, dixit:
Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said:
2 [Potestas et terror apud eum est, qui facit concordiam in sublimibus suis.
Dominion and fear are with Him; He maintaineth peace in his high places.
3 Numquid est numerus militum ejus? et super quem non surget lumen illius?
Is there any numbering of his hosts? And upon whom doth not his light arise?
4 Numquid justificari potest homo comparatus Deo? aut apparere mundus natus de muliere?
How then can man be righteous before? Or how can he be pure that is born of woman?
5 Ecce luna etiam non splendet, et stellæ non sunt mundæ in conspectu ejus:
Behold, even the moon, it shineth not; And the stars are not pure in his sight,
6 quanto magis homo putredo, et filius hominis vermis?]
How much less, man, a worm; And the son of man, a reptile!

< Job 25 >
