1 And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

2 Dominion and fear are with him; he maketh peace in his high places.

3 Is there any number of his troops? and upon whom doth not his light arise?

4 And how should man be just with *God? Or how should he be clean that is born of a woman?

5 Lo, even the moon is not bright; and the stars are not pure in his sight:

6 How much less man, a worm, and the son of man, a worm!

1 וַיַּעַן בִּלְדַּד הַשֻּׁחִי וַיֹּאמַר׃

2 הַמְשֵׁל וָפַחַד עִמֹּו עֹשֶׂה לֹום בִּמְרֹומָיו׃

3 הֲיֵשׁ מִסְפָּר לִגְדוּדָיו וְעַל־מִי לֹא־יָקוּם אֹורֵהוּ׃

4 וּמַה־יִּצְדַּק אֱנֹושׁ עִם־אֵל וּמַה־יִּזְכֶּה יְלוּד אִשָּׁה׃

5 הֵן עַד־יָרֵחַ וְלֹא יַאֲהִיל וְכֹוכָבִים לֹא־זַכּוּ בְעֵינָיו׃

6 אַף כִּי־אֱנֹושׁ רִמָּה וּבֶן־אָדָם תֹּולֵעָה׃ פ
