King James Version KJV
New Living Translation NLT
1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
1
Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
2 Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.
2
“God is powerful and dreadful. He enforces peace in the heavens.
3 Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?
3
Who is able to count his heavenly army? Doesn’t his light shine on all the earth?
4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
4
How can a mortal be innocent before God? Can anyone born of a woman be pure?
5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
5
God is more glorious than the moon; he shines brighter than the stars.
6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
6
In comparison, people are maggots; we mortals are mere worms.”
