Yobu 25

1 Awo Birudaadi Omusuki n’addamu n’ayogera nti,

Then Bildad the Shuhite spoke up and said,

2 “Okufuga kwa Katonda n’entiisa ya Katonda; ateekawo enkola entuufu mu bifo ebya waggulu mu ggulu.

“Dominion and awe belong to God. He brings peace to his heavens.

3 Amaggye ge gasobola okubalibwa? Ani atayakirwa musana gwe?

Who can count his armies? Is there anywhere his light doesn't shine?

4 Olwo omuntu ayinza atya okwelowooza nti mutuukirivu awali Katonda? Omuntu eyazaalibwa omukazi ayinza atya okuba omulongoofu?

How can a human being be right before God? Can anyone born of woman be pure?

5 Laba n’omwezi tegulina bye gwaka, n’emmunyeenye si nnongoofu mu maaso ge.

If in God's eyes even the moon does not shine brightly, and the stars are not pure,

6 Ate omuntu obuntu oyo envunyu obuvunyu, omwana w’omuntu, oyo olusiriŋŋanyi, ayinza atya okwelowooza nti mulongoofu!”

how much less a human being—who by comparison is like a maggot or a worm!”
