Chapter 25

God's providence often suffers the wicked to go on a long time in their sins: but punisheth them in another life.

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