Bildad Says Mankind Is Inferior
25
Then Bildad the Shuhite responded,2 “Dominion and awe [a]belong to Him
Who makes peace in His heights.
3 Is there any number to His troops?
And upon whom does His light not rise?
4 How then can mankind be righteous with God?
Or how can anyone who is born of woman be pure?
5 If even the moon has no brightness
And the stars are not pure in His sight,
6 How much less man, that maggot,
And a son of man, that worm!”
