וַיַּעַן בִּלְדַּד הַשֻּׁחִי וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ 1
Then responded Bildad the Shuhite, and said: —
הַמְשֵׁל וָפַחַד עִמּוֹ עֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָֽיו׃ 2
Dominion and dread, are with him, who causeth prosperity among his lofty ones;
הֲיֵשׁ מִסְפָּר לִגְדוּדָיו וְעַל־מִי לֹא־יָקוּם אוֹרֵֽהוּ׃ 3
Is there any number to his troops? And upon whom ariseth not his light?
וּמַה־יִּצְדַּק אֱנוֹשׁ עִם־אֵל וּמַה־יִּזְכֶּה יְלוּד אִשָּֽׁה׃ 4
How then shall, a mortal, be just with GOD? Or how shall he be pure who is born of a woman?
הֵן עַד־יָרֵחַ וְלֹא יַאֲהִיל וְכוֹכָבִים לֹא־זַכּוּ בְעֵינָֽיו׃ 5
Look as far as the moon, and it is not clear, and, the stars, are not bright in his eyes!
אַף כִּֽי־אֱנוֹשׁ רִמָּה וּבֶן־אָדָם תּוֹלֵעָֽה׃ 6
How much less a mortal who is a creeping thing? Or a son of the earth-born who is a worm?
