Darby Translation

Job 25

1 And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,
2 Dominion and fear are with him; he maketh peace in his high places.
3 Is there any number of his troops? and upon whom doth not his light arise?
4 And how should man be just with God? Or how should he be clean that is born of a woman?
5 Lo, even the moon is not bright; and the stars are not pure in his sight:
6 How much less man, a worm, and the son of man, a worm!

Chapter Summary

In a brief final speech, Bildad declares that no one born of woman can be righteous before the majestic God.

Book Summary

Job wrestles with the suffering of a righteous man who loses everything yet refuses to curse God. Through dialogues with his friends and God's answer from the whirlwind, the book probes faith, justice, and the limits of human understanding.
