Iyov 25
Orthodox Jewish Bible
25 Then answered Bildad the Shuchi, and said,
2 Dominion and pachad are with Him, oseh shalom bimromav.
3 Is there any number of His armies? And upon whom doth not His ohr arise?
4 Mah yitzdak Enosh im El (how then can man be justified, set right, with G-d?) Or how can he be clean that is born of isha?
5 If even the yarei’ach shineth not, yea, the kokhavim are not pure in His sight,
6 How much less enosh, that is a maggot? And the ben adam, which is a tola’at (worm)?
Job 25
New King James Version
Bildad: How Can Man Be Righteous?
25 Then (A)Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
2 “Dominion and fear belong to Him;
He makes peace in His high places.
3 [a]Is there any number to His armies?
Upon whom does (B)His light not rise?
4 (C)How then can man be righteous before God?
Or how can he be (D)pure who is born of a woman?
5 If even the moon does not shine,
And the stars are not pure in His (E)sight,
6 How much less man, who is (F)a maggot,
And a son of man, who is a worm?”
