< UJobe 25 >
1 Wasephendula uBilidadi umShuhi wathi:
Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2 Ukubusa lokwesabeka kulaye; uyenza ukuthula endaweni zakhe eziphezulu.
Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.
3 Kukhona inani yini lamabutho akhe? Ngubani okungamphumeliyo ukukhanya kwakhe?
Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?
4 Pho umuntu angalunga njani kuNkulunkulu? Kumbe ozelwe ngowesifazana angahlambuluka njani?
How then can man be justified with El? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
5 Khangela kuze kube senyangeni, njalo kayikhazimuli, lezinkanyezi kazihlambulukanga emehlweni akhe.
Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
6 Pho kangakanani umuntu oyimpethu, lendodana yomuntu engumswenya!
How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
