< Job 25 >

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,
Then Bildad the Shuhite spoke up and said,
2 Rule and power are his; he makes peace in his high places.
“Dominion and awe belong to God. He brings peace to his heavens.
3 Is it possible for his armies to be numbered? and on whom is not his light shining?
Who can count his armies? Is there anywhere his light doesn't shine?
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 can a human being be right before God? Can anyone born of woman be pure?
5 See, even the moon is not bright, and the stars are not clean in his eyes:
If in God's eyes even the moon does not shine brightly, and the stars are not pure,
6 How much less man who is an insect, and the son of man who is a worm!
how much less a human being—who by comparison is like a maggot or a worm!”
