Job 25

1 Then Bildad [also] replied,

Ano ra ko Pirirara Huhi; i mea ia,

2 “God is very powerful; everyone should have an awesome respect for him; he causes everything to be peaceful high up in heaven.

Kei a ia te kingitanga me te wehi: ko ia hei hohou i te rongo i ona wahi tiketike.

3 (Can anyone count the angels who are in his army [in heaven]?/No one can count the angels who are in his army [in heaven].) [RHQ] (Is there any place where his light does not shine?/There is no place where his light does not shine.) [RHQ]

E taea ranei ana ope te tatau? ko wai hoki i kore te whitingia e tona marama?

4 So, (how can God consider anyone to be righteous?/God certainly cannot consider anyone to be righteous.) [RHQ] (How can any human being be truly pure?/No human being can be truly pure.) [RHQ]

A ma te aha ra te tangata ka whakatikaia mai ai e te Atua? Ma te aha ka ma ai te whanau a te wahine?

5 Consider this: God does not even consider the full moon to be bright, and he does not consider the stars to be spotless.

Nana, ko te marama, kahore ona tiahotanga, kahore hoki nga whetu kia ma ki tana titiro:

6 So, (what about humans?/he does not consider humans [to be important].) [RHQ] They are [as insignificant as] [MET] maggots. [God does not think more highly of] people [than he thinks of] worms.”

Kia iti rawa iho to te tangata, he kutukutu nei! to te tama a te tangata, he iro nei!
