1Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
1ΥΠΟΛΑΒΩΝ δὲ Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει·
2“Dominion and awe belong to God; He establishes harmony in the heights of heaven.
2τί γὰρ προοίμιον ἢ φόβος παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ ὁ ποιῶν τὴν σύμπασαν ἐν ὑψίστῳ;
3Can His troops be numbered? On whom does His light not rise?
3μὴ γάρ τις ὑπολάβοι ὅτι ἐστὶ παρέκλυσις πειραταῖς, ἐπὶ τίνας δὲ οὐκ ἐπελεύσεται ἔνεδρα παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ;
4How then can a man be just before God? How can one born of woman be pure?
4πῶς γὰρ ἔσται δίκαιος βροτὸς ἔναντι Κυρίου; ἢ τίς ἂν ἀποκαθαρίσαι αὐτὸν γεννητὸς γυναικός;
5If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,
5εἰ σελήνῃ συντάσσει, καὶ οὐκ ἐπιφαύσκει, ἄστρα δὲ οὐ καθαρὰ ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ.
6how much less man, who is but a maggot, and the son of man, who is but a worm!”
6ἔα δέ, ἄνθρωπος σαπρία καὶ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου σκώληξ.
