Job 25

1 respondens autem Baldad Suites dixit

Then responded Bildad the Shuhite, and said: —

2 potestas et terror apud eum est qui facit concordiam in sublimibus suis

Dominion and dread, are with him, who causeth prosperity among his lofty ones;

3 numquid est numerus militum eius et super quem non surget lumen illius

Is there any number to his troops? And upon whom ariseth not his light?

4 numquid iustificari potest homo conparatus Deo aut apparere mundus natus de muliere

How then shall, a mortal, be just with GOD? Or how shall he be pure who is born of a woman?

5 ecce etiam luna non splendet et stellae non sunt mundae in conspectu eius

Look as far as the moon, and it is not clear, and, the stars, are not bright in his eyes!

6 quanto magis homo putredo et filius hominis vermis

How much less a mortal who is a creeping thing? Or a son of the earth-born who is a worm?
