Job 25

Bildad: How Can Man Be Righteous?

25Then ^aBildad the Shuhite answered and said:

²“Dominion and fear belong to Him;

He makes peace in His high places.

³¹Is there any number to His armies?

Upon whom does ^bHis light not rise?

^4cHow then can man be righteous before God?

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

⁵If even the moon does not shine,

And the stars are not pure in His ^esight,

⁶How much less man, who is ^fa maggot,

And a son of man, who is a worm?”
