Bildad’s Third Speech
25 Then[a] 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?”

Inferior humans
25 Bildad from Shuah replied:
2 Supreme power and awe belong to God;
he establishes peace on his heights.
3 Can his troops be counted?
On whom does his light not rise?
4 How can a person be innocent before God;
one born of a woman be pure?
5 If even the moon is not bright
and the stars not pure in his eyes,
6 how much less a human, a worm,
a person’s child, a grub.

Bildad
25 Then Bildad the Shuhite(A) replied:
2 “Dominion and awe belong to God;(B)
he establishes order in the heights of heaven.(C)
3 Can his forces be numbered?
On whom does his light not rise?(D)
4 How then can a mortal be righteous before God?
How can one born of woman be pure?(E)
5 If even the moon(F) is not bright
and the stars are not pure in his eyes,(G)
6 how much less a mortal, who is but a maggot—
a human being,(H) who is only a worm!”(I)
