Ayubu 25

1 Ndipo Bildadi Mshuhi akajibu:

Then Baldad the Suhite answered by saying:

2 “Mamlaka na kuheshimiwa ni vyake Mungu; yeye huthibitisha amani katika mbingu juu.

Power and terror are with him that makes a pact with those in high places.

3 Je, majeshi yake yaweza kuhesabika? Ni nani asiyeangaziwa na nuru yake?

Is there any limit to the number of his soldiers or to the number of those over whom his light rises?

4 Mtu awezaje kuwa mwadilifu mbele za Mungu? Awezaje mtu aliyezaliwa na mwanamke kuwa safi?

Is it right for man to compare himself to God, or to appear pure though he is born of woman?

5 Ikiwa hata mwezi sio mwangavu nazo nyota si safi machoni pake,

Behold, even the moon is not radiant, and the stars are not pure, in his sight.

6 sembuse mtu ambaye ni funza: mwanadamu ambaye ni buu tu!”

Is man much more than rottenness and the son of man much more than worms?
