Job 25

MSG

KJV

1 Bildad the Shuhite again attacked Job:
1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, 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 him, he maketh peace in his high places.
3 Can anyone count his angel armies? Is there any place where his light doesn't shine?
3 Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light 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 justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
5 Why, even the moon has its flaws, even the stars aren't perfect in God's eyes,
5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
6 So how much less, plain men and women - slugs and maggots by comparison!"
6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
