Job 25

1 Then Baldad the Suhite answered by saying:

Då tok Bildad frå Suah til ords og sagde:

2 Power and terror are with him that makes a pact with those in high places.

«Hjå honom magt og rædsla finst; han i sin himmel freden skaper.

3 Is there any limit to the number of his soldiers or to the number of those over whom his light rises?

Kven veit talet på hans herar? Kven yverstrålar ei hans ljos?

4 Is it right for man to compare himself to God, or to appear pure though he is born of woman?

Kor kann ein mann ha rett mot Gud? Er vel ein kvinnefødd uskuldig?

5 Behold, even the moon is not radiant, and the stars are not pure, in his sight.

Sjå, månen er’kje klår ein gong, og stjernon’ er’kje reine for han.

6 Is man much more than rottenness and the son of man much more than worms?

Enn mannen då, den vesle krypen? Menneskjebarnet, denne makk?»
