Job 25
Evangelical Heritage Version
Round Three: Bildad’s Speech
25 Bildad the Shuhite responded:
2 The power to rule and to inspire fear belongs to him.
He makes peace on high.
3 Can anyone count his troops?
Is there anyone on whom his light does not rise?
4 How then can a man be righteous with God?
How can one born of a woman be pure?
5 If even the moon does not shine brightly for him,
and if the stars are not pure in his eyes,
6 how much less a man, who is a maggot,
and a son of man, who is a worm?
Job 25
New International Version
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)
Job 25
King James Version
25 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
2 Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.
3 Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?
4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
