1Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,2Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.3Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?4How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?5Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.6How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
1Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said: (Job 2:11)2“Dominion and fear are with God;[1] he makes peace in his high heaven.3Is there any number to his armies? Upon whom does his light not arise? (Job 19:12; Ps 103:21; Mt 5:45; Jas 1:17)4How then can man be in the right before God? How can he who is born of woman be pure? (Job 4:17; Job 9:2; Job 14:1; Job 14:4; Job 15:14; Ps 130:3; Ps 143:2)5Behold, even the moon is not bright, and the stars are not pure in his eyes;6how much less man, who is a maggot, and the son of man, who is a worm!” (Job 9:14; Job 15:16; Job 35:8; Ps 22:6; Isa 41:14)
