Joba 25

1 Dia namaly Bildada Sohita ka nanao hoe.

Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:

2 Fanapahana sy fampahatahorana no ao aminy, manao fihavanana any amin’ ny avo Izy.

“Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.

3 Azo isaina va ny miaramilany? Ary fahazavan’ iza no tsy ihoaran’ ny Azy?

Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?

4 Ary aiza no hahamarina ny zanak’ olombelona eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra? Ary aiza no hadio izay tera-behivavy?

How then can a man be just before God? How can one born of woman be pure?

5 Indro, ny volana aza tsy mangarangarana, ary ny kintana aza tsy madio eo imasony;

If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,

6 Koa mainka fa ny olombelona, izay kankana, ary ny zanak’ olombelona, izay olitra.

how much less man, who is but a maggot, and the son of man, who is but a worm!”
