Hiob 25

1 Na Suhini Bildad buae se,

Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said,

2 “Tumi ne suro wɔ Onyankopɔn; ɔno na ɔhyehyɛ pɛpɛyɛ wɔ ɔsorosoro.

What beginning or fear is his—even he that makes all things in the highest?

3 Wobetumi akan nʼakofo ana? Hena na ne hann nhyerɛn wɔ ne so?

For let none think that there is a respite for robbers: and upon whom will there not come a snare from him?

4 Ɛno de, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na ɔdesani betumi ateɛ wɔ Onyankopɔn anim? Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na nea ɔbea awo no no bɛyɛ kronn?

For how shall a mortal be just before the Lord? or who that is born of a woman shall purify himself?

5 Mpo sɛ ɔsram nhyerɛn na nsoromma nyɛ kronn wɔ nʼani so a,

If he gives an order to the moon, then it shines not; and the stars are not pure before him.

6 na nkantom onipa a ɔte sɛ nsaammoa, onipa ba a ɔyɛ osunson bi kɛkɛ!”

But alas! man is corruption, and the son of man a worm.
