Job 25:6 in context
The whole interlinear chapter
Job 25:5      Job 26:1

Job 25:6

How much less a man—[who is insignificant as] amaggot (Hebr. rimah) [is broken down]
and a son of man—[who is only like] a worm (kermes bug—Hebr. toleah) [is crushed].
[Two different words for insect/worm are used. The maggot brings to mind decay and how man is broken down. The worm (Kermes ilicis) was crushed to extract the scarlet dye, see Ps. 22:6.]
