Bildad Says Man Is Inferior

      1Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,

2“Dominion and awe belong to Him
         Who establishes peace in His heights.

3“Is there any number to His troops?
         And upon whom does His light not rise?

4“How then can a man be just with God?
         Or how can he be clean who is born of woman?

5“If even the moon has no brightness
         And the stars are not pure in His sight,

6How much less man, that maggot,
         And the son of man, that worm!”
