Job 25

MSG

ESV

1 Bildad the Shuhite again attacked Job:
1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
2 "God is sovereign, God is fearsome - everything in the cosmos fits and works in his plan.
2 “Dominion and fear are with God; he makes peace in his high heaven.
3 Can anyone count his angel armies? Is there any place where his light doesn't shine?
3 Is there any number to his armies? Upon whom does his light not arise?
4 How can a mere mortal presume to stand up to God? How can an ordinary person pretend to be guiltless?
4 How then can man be in the right before God? How can he who is born of woman be pure?
5 Why, even the moon has its flaws, even the stars aren't perfect in God's eyes,
5 Behold, even the moon is not bright, and the stars are not pure in his eyes;
6 So how much less, plain men and women - slugs and maggots by comparison!"
6 how much less man, who is a maggot, and the son of man, who is a worm! ”
