And upon whom ariseth not his light? 4How then shall, a mortal, be just with GOD? Or how shall he be pure who is born of a woman? 5Look as far as the moon, and it is not clear, and, the stars, are not bright in his eyes! 6How much less a mortal who is a creeping thing? Or a son of the earth-born who is a worm?
