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 just with God? 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 the moon hath no brightness, and 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!
