Iyyoob 25

1 Bildaad Shuhaahichi akkana jedhee deebise:

Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,

2 “Mootummaa fi sodaatamuun kan Waaqaa ti; inni samiiwwan ol fagoo keessatti nagaa buusa.

Rule and power are his; he makes peace in his high places.

3 Loltoonni isaa lakkaaʼamuu dandaʼuu? Ifni isaa eenyu irratti utuu hin baʼin hafa?

Is it possible for his armies to be numbered? and on whom is not his light shining?

4 Yoos namni akkamitti fuula Waaqaa duratti qajeelaa taʼuu dandaʼa ree? Namni dubartii irraa dhalate akkamitti qulqulluu taʼuu dandaʼa?

How then is it possible for man to be upright before God? or how may he be clean who is a son of woman?

5 Yoo jiʼi illee fuula isaa duratti hin ifne, yoo urjiiwwanis ija isaa duratti qulqulluu taʼuu baatan,

See, even the moon is not bright, and the stars are not clean in his eyes:

6 namni raammoo foonii taʼe, ilmi namaa kan raammoo taʼe sun hammam kanaa gad haa taʼu ree!”

How much less man who is an insect, and the son of man who is a worm!
