Job 25:2-5
Job 25:1-6 The Message (MSG)
Bildad the Shuhite again attacked Job: “God is sovereign, God is fearsome— everything in the cosmos fits and works in his plan. Can anyone count his angel armies? Is there any place where his light doesn’t shine? How can a mere mortal presume to stand up to God? How can an ordinary person pretend to be guiltless? Why, even the moon has its flaws, even the stars aren’t perfect in God’s eyes, So how much less, plain men and women— slugs and maggots by comparison!”
Job 25:2-5 King James Version (KJV)
Dominion and fear are with him, He maketh peace in his high places. Is there any number of his armies? And upon whom doth not his light arise? How then can man be justified with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman? Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; Yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
Job 25:2-5 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)
“Dominion and awe belong to Him Who establishes peace in His heights. Is there any number to His troops? And upon whom does His light not rise? How then can a man be just with God? Or how can he be clean who is born of woman? If even the moon has no brightness And the stars are not pure in His sight
Job 25:2-5 New Century Version (NCV)
“God rules and he must be honored; he set up order in his high heaven. No one can count God’s armies. His light shines on all people. So no one can be good in the presence of God, and no one born to a woman can be pure. Even the moon is not bright and the stars are not pure in his eyes.
Job 25:2-5 American Standard Version (ASV)

Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman? Behold, even the moon hath no brightness, And the stars are not pure in his sight
Job 25:2-5 New International Version (NIV)
“Dominion and awe belong to God; he establishes order in the heights of heaven. Can his forces be numbered? On whom does his light not rise? How then can a mortal be righteous before God? How can one born of woman be pure? If even the moon is not bright and the stars are not pure in his eyes
Job 25:2-5 New King James Version (NKJV)
