Bildad’s Third Speech

25 Thena Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,b

“Domination and dread are with him

who makes peace in his high heavens.

Is there a number to his troops?

And upon whom does his light not rise?

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

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

Look, even the moon is not bright,d

and the stars are not pure in his sight.

How much lesse for a human being who is a maggot,

and a humanf who is a worm?”
