Job 25

   |   

Bildad Speaks: Man Cannot Be Righteous

1 Then (a)Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:

2 "Dominion and fear are with God;[a]
    he makes peace in his high heaven.
3 Is there any number to his (b)armies?
    Upon whom does his (c)light not arise?
4 How then can man be (d)in the right before God?
    How can he who is (e)born of woman be (f)pure?
5 Behold, even the moon is not bright,
    and the stars are not pure in his eyes;
6 (g)how much less man, who is (h)a maggot,
    and (i)the son of man, who is a worm!"
