UJobe 25

1 Wasephendula uBilidadi umShuhi wathi:

Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

2 Ukubusa lokwesabeka kulaye; uyenza ukuthula endaweni zakhe eziphezulu.

“Dominion and fear are with him; he makes order in his high places of heaven.

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

Is there any end to the number of his armies? Upon whom does his light not shine?

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

How then can man be righteous with God? How can he who is born of a woman be clean, acceptable to him?

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

See, even the moon has no brightness to him; the stars are not pure in his sight.

6 Pho kangakanani umuntu oyimpethu, lendodana yomuntu engumswenya!

How much less man, who is a worm— a son of man, who is a worm!”
