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 eius? et super quem non surget lumen illius?

Is there any numbering of his hosts? And upon whom doth not his light arise?

4 Numquid iustificari 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 eius:

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!
