UJobe 25

1 Wasephendula uBilidadi umShuhi wathi:

Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,

2 Ukubusa lokwesabeka kulaye; uyenza ukuthula endaweni zakhe eziphezulu.

"Dominion and fear are with him. He makes peace in his high places.

3 Kukhona inani yini lamabutho akhe? Ngubani okungamphumeliyo ukukhanya kwakhe?

Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?

4 Pho umuntu angalunga njani kuNkulunkulu? Kumbe ozelwe ngowesifazana angahlambuluka njani?

How then can man be just with God? Or how can he who is born of a woman be clean?

5 Khangela kuze kube senyangeni, njalo kayikhazimuli, lezinkanyezi kazihlambulukanga emehlweni akhe.

Look, even the moon has no brightness, and the stars are not pure in his sight;

6 Pho kangakanani umuntu oyimpethu, lendodana yomuntu engumswenya!

How much less man, who is a worm, the son of man, who is a worm."
