25:1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:
25:2 “Dominion1 and awesome might2 belong to3 God;
he establishes peace in his heights.4
25:3 Can his armies be numbered?5
On whom does his light6 not rise?
25:4 How then can a human being be righteous before God?
How can one born of a woman be pure?7
25:5 If even the moon is not bright,8
and the stars are not pure as far as he is concerned,9
25:6 how much less a mortal man, who is but a maggot—10
a son of man, who is only a worm!”
