Job 25

1 Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said,

וַ֭יַּעַן בִּלְדַּ֥ד הַשֻּׁחִ֗י וַיֹּאמַֽר׃

2 What beginning or fear is his—even he that makes all things in the highest?

הַמְשֵׁ֣ל וָפַ֣חַד עִמֹּ֑ו עֹשֶׂ֥ה שָׁ֝לֹ֗ום בִּמְרֹומָֽיו׃

3 For let none think that there is a respite for robbers: and upon whom will there not come a snare from him?

הֲיֵ֣שׁ מִ֭סְפָּר לִגְדוּדָ֑יו וְעַל־מִ֝֗י לֹא־יָק֥וּם אֹורֵֽהוּ׃

4 For how shall a mortal be just before the Lord? or who that is born of a woman shall purify himself?

וּמַה־יִּצְדַּ֣ק אֱנֹ֣ושׁ עִם־אֵ֑ל וּמַה־יִּ֝זְכֶּ֗ה יְל֣וּד אִשָּֽׁה׃

5 If he gives an order to the moon, then it shines not; and the stars are not pure before him.

הֵ֣ן עַד־יָ֭רֵחַ וְלֹ֣א יַאֲהִ֑יל וְ֝כֹוכָבִ֗ים לֹא־זַכּ֥וּ בְעֵינָֽיו׃

6 But alas! man is corruption, and the son of man a worm.

אַ֭ף כִּֽי־אֱנֹ֣ושׁ רִמָּ֑ה וּבֶן־אָ֝דָ֗ם תֹּולֵעָֽה׃ פ
