Job 25

   |   

Bildad Speaks: How Can a Mortal Be Righteous Before God?

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:

2 "Dominion and fear are with God;[a]
    he makes peace in his high heaven.
3 Is there any number to his armies?
    Upon whom does his light not arise?
4 How then can a mortal be righteous before God?
    How can one born of woman be pure?
5 If even the moon is not bright
    and the stars are not pure in his sight,
6 how much less a mortal, who is a maggot,
    and a human being, who is a worm!"
