< Job 25 >

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,
Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
2 Rule and power are his; he makes peace in his high places.
“Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.
3 Is it possible for his armies to be numbered? and on whom is not his light shining?
Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?
4 How then is it possible for man to be upright before God? or how may he be clean who is a son of woman?
How then can a man be just before God? How can one born of woman be pure?
5 See, even the moon is not bright, and the stars are not clean in his eyes:
If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,
6 How much less man who is an insect, and the son of man who is a worm!
how much less man, who is but a maggot, and the son of man, who is but a worm!”
