Job 25

1 Forsothe Baldach Suytes answeride, and seide,

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

2 Power and drede is anentis hym, that is, God, that makith acordyng in hise hiye thingis.

Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.

3 Whether noumbre is of hise knyytis? and on whom schyneth not his liyt?

Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?

4 Whether a man comparisound to God mai be iustified, ether borun of a womman mai appere cleene?

How then can man be justified with El? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

5 Lo! also the moone schyneth not, and sterris ben not cleene in `his siyt;

Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.

6 hou miche more a man rot, and the sone of a man a worm, is vncleene `and vile, if he is comparisound to God.

How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
