Ayubu 25

1 Kisha Bilidadi Mshuhi akajibu na kusema,

And Bildad the Shuhite answereth and saith: —

2 “Utawala na hofu vipo naye; anaagiza mahali pa juu pake mbinguni.

The rule and fear [are] with Him, Making peace in His high places.

3 Je kuna idadi ya majeshi yake? Ni wapi pasipo na nuru yake?

Is their [any] number to His troops? And on whom ariseth not His light?

4 Jinsi gani basi mtu awe mwenye haki kama Mungu? Jinsi gani aliyezaliwa na mwanamke awe safi, amekubaliwa naye?

And what? is man righteous with God? And what? is he pure — born of a woman?

5 Tazama, hata mwezi kwake haungazii; nyota hazikosafi mbele zake.

Lo — unto the moon, and it shineth not, And stars have not been pure in His eyes.

6 Ni vipi mtu, aliyemdudu - mwana wa mtu, aliye mdudu!”

How much less man — a grub, And the son of man — a worm!
