Iyyoob 25

1 Bildaad Shuhaahichi akkana jedhee deebise:

Then responded Bildad the Shuhite, and said: —

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

Dominion and dread, are with him, who causeth prosperity among his lofty ones;

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

Is there any number to his troops? And upon whom ariseth not his light?

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

How then shall, a mortal, be just with GOD? Or how shall he be pure who is born of a woman?

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

Look as far as the moon, and it is not clear, and, the stars, are not bright in his eyes!

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

How much less a mortal who is a creeping thing? Or a son of the earth-born who is a worm?
