Behold, even the moon is not bright and the stars are not clean in his sight;
“Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.
Behold, God puts no trust in his holy ones, and the heavens are not clean in his sight;
if I have looked at the sun when it shone, or the moon moving in splendor,
Even in his servants he puts no trust, and his angels he charges with error;
“Truly I know that it is so: But how can a man be just before God?
with the pure thou dost show thyself pure; and with the crooked thou dost show thyself perverse.
Then the moon will be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for the Lord of hosts will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem and before his elders he will manifest his glory.
Indeed, in this case, what once had splendor has come to have no splendor at all, because of the splendor that surpasses it.
