3 Onko määrää hänen joukoillansa, ja kenelle ei hänen valonsa koita?

4 Kuinka siis ihminen olisi vanhurskas Jumalan edessä, ja kuinka vaimosta syntynyt olisi puhdas?

5 Katso, eipä kuukaan ole kirkas, eivät tähdetkään ole puhtaat hänen silmissänsä;

1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said, 2 Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places. 3 Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise? 4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman? 5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight. 6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
