Job 25:5-6
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 25:5-6 King James Version (KJV)
Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; Yea, the stars are not pure in his sight. How much less man, that is a worm? And the son of man, which is a worm?
Job 25:5-6 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)
If even the moon has no brightness And the stars are not pure in His sight, How much less man, that maggot, And the son of man, that worm!”
Job 25:5-6 New Century Version (NCV)
Even the moon is not bright and the stars are not pure in his eyes. People are much less! They are like insects. They are only worms!”
Job 25:5-6 American Standard Version (ASV)
Behold, even the moon hath no brightness, And the stars are not pure in his sight: How much less man, that is a worm! And the son of man, that is a worm!
Job 25:5-6 New International Version (NIV)
If even the moon is not bright and the stars are not pure in his eyes, how much less a mortal, who is but a maggot— a human being, who is only a worm!”
Job 25:5-6 New King James Version (NKJV)
If even the moon does not shine, And the stars are not pure in His sight, How much less man, who is a maggot, And a son of man, who is a worm?”
Job 25:5-6 Amplified Bible (AMP)
“Behold, even the moon has no brightness [compared to God’s majesty and glory] And the stars are not pure in His sight, How much less man, that maggot, And the son of man, that worm!”
