25 Thena Bildad the Shuhite answered and ⌊said⌋,b
2 “Domination and dread are with him
who makes peace in his high heavens.
3 Is there a number to his troops?
And upon whom does his light not rise?
4 “Indeed,c 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⌋,d
and the stars are not pure in his sight.
6 ⌊How much less⌋e for a human being who is a maggot,
and ⌊a human⌋f who is a worm?”
