Job 25:4–5

4 How then can a mortal be righteous before God?

How can one born of woman be pure?

5 If even the moon is not bright

and the stars are not pure in his eyes,

4 How then can man be in the right before God?

How can he who is born of woman be pure?

5 Behold, even the moon is not bright,

and the stars are not pure in his eyes;

4 How then can man be justified with God?

Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not;

Yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.

4 How can a mortal be innocent before God?

Can anyone born of a woman be pure?

5 God is more glorious than the moon;

he shines brighter than the stars.

4 How then can man be righteous before God?

Or how can he be pure who is born of a woman?

5 If even the moon does not shine,

And the stars are not pure in His sight,

4 So no one can be good in the presence of God,

and no one born to a woman can be pure.

5 Even the moon is not bright

and the stars are not pure in his eyes.

4 How then can man be just with God?

Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

5 Behold, even the moon hath no brightness,

And the stars are not pure in his sight:

4 How can a person be righteous to God? 

How can anyone born of a woman be pure? 

5 Even the moon isn’t bright, 

and the stars aren’t pure in his sight. 

4 How can a person be justified before God?

How can one born of woman be pure?

5 If even the moon does not shine

and the stars are not pure in His sight,

4 How then can a mortal be righteous before God?

How can one born of woman be pure?

5 If even the moon is not bright

and the stars are not pure in his sight,

4 “Indeed, how can a human being be righteous before God?

And how will he who is born of a woman be pure?

5 Look, even the moon is not bright,

and the stars are not pure in his sight.

4 How can human beings be right with God?

How can mere people really be pure?

5 Even the moon isn’t bright

and the stars aren’t pure in God’s eyes.

4 “How then can a man be just with God?

Or how can he be clean who is born of woman?

5 “If even the moon has no brightness

And the stars are not pure in His sight,
