| 1Bildad from Shuah responded and said: | 1Then Bildad the Shuhite replied: |
| 2"Dominion and fear belong to God; who fashions peace in his high heaven. | 2“God is powerful and dreadful. He enforces peace in the heavens. |
| 3Is there any limit to his armies? On whom does his light not shine? | 3Who is able to count his heavenly army? Doesn’t his light shine on all the earth? |
| 4How can a human being become right with God? How can a human being be pure? | 4How can a mortal be innocent before God? Can anyone born of a woman be pure? |
| 5Behold, even the moon isn't bright, and the stars aren't pure in his eyes. | 5God is more glorious than the moon; he shines brighter than the stars. |
| 6How much less is man, who is only a maggot, or a man's children, who are only worms!" | 6In comparison, people are maggots; we mortals are mere worms.” |
