Bildad Speaks

¹Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:

²Dominion and dread belong to him,[#25:2 2Ch 20:29; Jb 13:11; Ps 36:1]

the one who establishes harmony in his heights.

³Can his troops be numbered?

Does his light not shine on everyone?

⁴How can a human be justified before God?[#25:4 Jb 9:2; Ps 143:2; Rm 3:20]

How can one born of woman be pure?

⁵If even the moon does not shine

and the stars are not pure in his sight,

⁶how much less a human, who is a maggot,

a son of man, who is a worm!
