Job 25

1 Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said,

١ فَأَجَابَ بِلْدَدُ ٱلشُّوحِيُّ وَقَالَ:

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

٢ «ٱلسُّلْطَانُ وَٱلْهَيْبَةُ عِنْدَهُ. هُوَ صَانِعُ ٱلسَّلَامِ فِي أَعَالِيهِ.

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

٣ هَلْ مِنْ عَدَدٍ لِجُنُودِهِ؟ وَعَلَى مَنْ لَا يُشْرِقُ نُورُهُ؟

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

٤ فَكَيْفَ يَتَبَرَّرُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ عِنْدَ ٱللهِ؟ وَكَيْفَ يَزْكُو مَوْلُودُ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ؟

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

٥ هُوَذَا نَفْسُ ٱلْقَمَرِ لَا يُضِيءُ، وَٱلْكَوَاكِبُ غَيْرُ نَقِيَّةٍ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ.

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

٦ فَكَمْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلرِّمَّةُ، وَٱبْنُ آدَمَ ٱلدُّودُ؟».
