Job 25

Bildad Asks, Can Man Be Right with God?

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

2 “Rule and dread ^{▼▼Lit are with Him}belong to Him
Who makes peace in His heights.
3 “Is there any number to His troops?
And upon whom does His light not rise?
4 “How then can mortal man be right with God?
Or how can he be pure who is born of woman?
5 “Behold even the moon has no brightness,
And the stars are not pure in His sight;
6 How much less mortal man, that maggot,
And the son of man, that worm!”
