Bildad: How can man be righteous?

1
Then Baldad the Suhite answered, and I said:
2
Power and terror are with him, who maketh peace in his high places.
3
Is there any numbering of his soldiers? and upon whom shall not his light arise?
4
Can man be justified compared with God, or he that is born of a woman appear clean?
5
Behold even the moon doth not shine, and the stars are not pure in his sight.
6
How much less man that is rottenness and the son of man who is a worm?
