Bildad: Man Cannot Be Righteous

1Then answered Baldad the Suhite, & sayde:

2Power & feare is with him aboue, that maketh peace (sittinge) in his hynesse,

3whose men of warre are innumerable, and whose light aryseth ouer all.

4But how maye a man copared vnto God, be iustified? Or, how can he be clene, that is borne of a woman?

5Beholde, the Moone shyneth nothinge in comparison to him, & the starres are vnclene in his sight.

6How moch more the, ma, that is but corrupcion: and the sonne of man, which is but a worme?
