Job 25

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,

2 Rule and power are his; he makes peace in his high places.

3 Is it possible for his armies to be numbered? and on whom is not his light shining?

4 How then is it possible for man to be upright before God? or how may he be clean who is a son of woman?

5 See, even the moon is not bright, and the stars are not clean in his eyes:

6 How much less man who is an insect, and the son of man who is a worm!

New International Version NIV

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:

2 “Dominion and awe belong to God; he establishes order in the heights of heaven.

3 Can his forces be numbered? On whom does his light not rise?

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 eyes,

6 how much less a mortal, who is but a maggot— a human being, who is only a worm!”
