< Ayubu 25 >
1 Ndipo Bildadi Mshuhi akajibu:
Then answered Bildad the Shuchite, and said,
2 “Mamlaka na kuheshimiwa ni vyake Mungu; yeye huthibitisha amani katika mbingu juu.
Dominion and dread are with him: he maketh peace in high places.
3 Je, majeshi yake yaweza kuhesabika? Ni nani asiyeangaziwa na nuru yake?
Can the number of his hosts be given? and over whom riseth not his light?
4 Mtu awezaje kuwa mwadilifu mbele za Mungu? Awezaje mtu aliyezaliwa na mwanamke kuwa safi?
How then can man be justified with God? or how can be one that is born of woman?
5 Ikiwa hata mwezi sio mwangavu nazo nyota si safi machoni pake,
Behold, even as regardeth the moon, that is not bright; yea, the stars are not pure in his eyes.
6 sembuse mtu ambaye ni funza: mwanadamu ambaye ni buu tu!”
How much less the mortal, the mere worm? and the son of earth, the mere maggot?
