2 “Dominion and awesome might belong to God;

he establishes peace in his heights.

3 Can his armies be numbered?

On whom does his light not rise?

4 How then can a human being be righteous before God?

How can one born of a woman be pure?

5 If even the moon is not bright,

and the stars are not pure as far as he is concerned,

6 how much less a mortal man, who is but a maggot –

a son of man, who is only a worm!”
