Job 25
Lexham English Bible
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?”
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?”
