< איוב 25 >
וַיַּעַן בִּלְדַּד הַשֻּׁחִי וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ | 1 |
Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said,
הַמְשֵׁל וָפַחַד עִמּוֹ עֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָֽיו׃ | 2 |
What beginning or fear is his—even he that makes all things in the highest?
הֲיֵשׁ מִסְפָּר לִגְדוּדָיו וְעַל־מִי לֹא־יָקוּם אוֹרֵֽהוּ׃ | 3 |
For let none think that there is a respite for robbers: and upon whom will there not come a snare from him?
וּמַה־יִּצְדַּק אֱנוֹשׁ עִם־אֵל וּמַה־יִּזְכֶּה יְלוּד אִשָּֽׁה׃ | 4 |
For how shall a mortal be just before the Lord? or who that is born of a woman shall purify himself?
הֵן עַד־יָרֵחַ וְלֹא יַאֲהִיל וְכוֹכָבִים לֹא־זַכּוּ בְעֵינָֽיו׃ | 5 |
If he gives an order to the moon, then it shines not; and the stars are not pure before him.
אַף כִּֽי־אֱנוֹשׁ רִמָּה וּבֶן־אָדָם תּוֹלֵעָֽה׃ | 6 |
But alas! man is corruption, and the son of man a worm.
