< Job 25 >

1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
فَقَالَ بِلْدَدُ الشُّوحِيُّ:١
2 “Dominion and fear are with him. He makes peace in his high places.
«لِلهِ السُّلْطَانُ وَالْهَيْبَةُ، يَصْنَعُ السَّلامَ فِي أَعَالِيهِ.٢
3 Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?
هَلْ مِنْ إِحْصَاءٍ لأَجْنَادِهِ، وَعَلَى مَنْ لَا يُشْرِقُ نُورُهُ؟٣
4 How then can man be just with God? Or how can he who is born of a woman be clean?
فَكَيْفَ يَتَبَرَّرُ الإِنْسَانُ عِنْدَ اللهِ، وَكَيْفَ يَزْكُو مَوْلُودُ الْمَرْأَةِ؟٤
5 Behold, even the moon has no brightness, and the stars are not pure in his sight;
فَإِنْ كَانَ الْقَمَرُ لَا يُضِيءُ، وَالْكَوَاكِبُ غَيْرَ نَقِيَّةٍ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ،٥
6 How much less man, who is a worm, and the son of man, who is a worm!”
فَكَمْ بِالْحَرِيِّ الإِنْسَانُ الرِّمَّةُ وَابْنُ آدَمَ الدُّودُ؟»٦
