Bildad

25 Then Bildad the Shuhite(A) replied:

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

25 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered, and said,

“Power and fear are with Him Who makes peace in His places.

“Is there any number to His armies? And upon whom shall not His light arise?

“And how may a man be justified with God? Or how can he be clean who is born of woman?

“Behold, He will give no light to the Moon. And the stars are unclean in His sight.

“How much less so is man (a maggot) and the son of man (a worm)?”
