Job 25

1 Then answered Bildad the Shuchite, and said,

ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Βαλδαδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει

2 Dominion and dread are with him: he maketh peace in high places.

τί γὰρ προοίμιον ἢ φόβος παρ’ αὐτοῦ ὁ ποιῶν τὴν σύμπασαν ἐν ὑψίστῳ

3 Can the number of his hosts be given? and over whom riseth not his light?

μὴ γάρ τις ὑπολάβοι ὅτι ἔστιν παρέλκυσις πειραταῖς ἐπὶ τίνας δὲ οὐκ ἐπελεύσεται ἔνεδρα παρ’ αὐτοῦ

4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can be one that is born of woman?

πῶς γὰρ ἔσται δίκαιος βροτὸς ἔναντι κυρίου ἢ τίς ἂν ἀποκαθαρίσαι ἑαυτὸν γεννητὸς γυναικός

5 Behold, even as regardeth the moon, that is not bright; yea, the stars are not pure in his eyes.

εἰ σελήνῃ συντάσσει καὶ οὐκ ἐπιφαύσκει ἄστρα δὲ οὐ καθαρὰ ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ

6 How much less the mortal, the mere worm? and the son of earth, the mere maggot?

ἔα δέ ἄνθρωπος σαπρία καὶ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου σκώληξ
