Iyyoob 25

1 Bildaad Shuhaahichi akkana jedhee deebise:

Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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