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
English Standard Version
Bildad Speaks: Man Cannot Be Righteous
25 Then (A)Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
2 “Dominion and fear are with God;[a]
he makes peace in his high heaven.
3 Is there any number to his (B)armies?
Upon whom does his (C)light not arise?
4 How then can man be (D)in the right before God?
How can he who is (E)born of woman be (F)pure?
5 Behold, even the moon is not bright,
and the stars are not pure in his eyes;
6 (G)how much less man, who is (H)a maggot,
and (I)the son of man, who is a worm!”

25 Y respondió Bildad suhita, y dijo:
2 El señorío y el temor están con Dios; El hace paz en sus alturas.
3 ¿Por ventura sus ejércitos tienen número? ¿Y sobre quién no está su luz?
4 ¶ ¿Cómo pues se justificará el hombre con Dios? ¿Y cómo será limpio el que nace de mujer?
5 He aquí que ni aun la misma luna será resplandeciente, ni las estrellas son limpias delante de sus ojos.
6 ¿Cuánto menos el hombre que es un gusano, y el hijo de hombre, también gusano?
