Job 25

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
2 "Dominion and fear are with him. He makes peace in his high places.
3 Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?
4 How then can man be just with God? Or how can he who is born of a woman be clean?
5 Behold, even the moon has no brightness, and the stars are not pure in his sight;
6 How much less man, who is a worm, the son of man, who is 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.
