Job 25
A hymn to God’s omnipotence
1 Bildad of Shuah spoke next. He said:
2 What sovereignty, what awe, is his who keeps the peace in his heights!
3 Can anyone number his armies, or boast of having escaped his ambushes?
4 Could any man ever think himself innocent, when confronted by God? Born of woman, how could he ever be clean?
5 The very moon lacks brightness, and the stars are unclean as he sees them.
6 What, then, of man, maggot that he is, the son of man, a worm?
