Job 25

New American Standard Bible 2020

Bildad Says Mankind Is Inferior

1Then Bildad the Shuhite responded,2“1Dominion and awe 2belong to Him Who makes peace in 3His heights.3Is there any number to 4His troops? And upon whom does His light not rise?4How then can mankind be 5righteous with God? Or how can anyone who is born of woman be 6pure?5If even 7the moon has no brightness And the 8stars are not pure in His sight,6How much less 9man, that 10maggot, And a son of man, that worm!”
