Bible Stories: Job (Chapter XXV)
Bildad, the Shuhite answered then:
Dominion belongs to God,
Who harmony brings in heavens;
Awesomeness too goes to the Lord.
Innumerable are His armies;
The stars and angels are His troops;
His light extends to all of them.
Can man be just in God’s own sight?
Can Eve’s children be innocent?
Behold the moon to God isn’t bright;
Stars luminous aren’t in His sight;
How much lesser ought to be man,
Who is but only maggot-like,
And son of man, who’s just a worm!
