Job 25:2
1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places.
3 Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise?
4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
