JOB 25 [†]Then  o Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:

2 “Dominion and fear are with God; [1]

he makes peace in his high heaven.

3 Is there any number to his  p armies?

Upon whom does his  q light not arise?

4[^][†] How then can man be  r in the right before God?

How can he who is  s born of woman be  t pure?

5 Behold, even the moon is not bright,

and the stars are not pure in his eyes;

6  u how much less man, who is  v a maggot,

and  w the son of man, who is a worm!”
