1Then Baldad the Suhite answered, and said:
1ויען בלדד השחי ויאמר׃
2How long will you throw out words? understand first, and so let us speak.
2עד אנה תשימון קנצי למלין תבינו ואחר נדבר׃
3Why are we reputed as beasts, and counted vile before you?
3מדוע נחשבנו כבהמה נטמינו בעיניכם׃
4Thou that destroyest thy soul in thy fury, shall the earth be forsaken for thee, and shall rocks be removed out of their place?
4טרף נפשו באפו הלמענך תעזב ארץ ויעתק צור ממקמו׃
5Shall not the light of the wicked be extinguished, and the flame of his fire not shine?
5גם אור רשעים ידעך ולא יגה שביב אשו׃
6The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and the lamp that is over him, shall be put out.
6אור חשך באהלו ונרו עליו ידעך׃
7The step of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down headlong.
7יצרו צעדי אונו ותשליכהו עצתו׃
8For he hath thrust his feet into a net, and walketh in its meshes.
8כי שלח ברשת ברגליו ועל שבכה יתהלך׃
9The sole of his foot shall be held in a snare, and thirst shall burn against him.
9יאחז בעקב פח יחזק עליו צמים׃
10A gin is hidden for him in the earth, and his trap upon the path.
10טמון בארץ חבלו ומלכדתו עלי נתיב׃
11Fears shall terrify him on every side, and shall entangle his feet.
11סביב בעתהו בלהות והפיצהו לרגליו׃
12Let his strength be wasted with famine, and let hunger invade his ribs.
12יהי רעב אנו ואיד נכון לצלעו׃
13Let it devour the beauty of his skin, let the firstborn death consume his arms.
13יאכל בדי עורו יאכל בדיו בכור מות׃
14Let his confidence be rooted out of his tabernacle, and let destruction tread upon him like a king.
14ינתק מאהלו מבטחו ותצעדהו למלך בלהות׃
15Let the companions of him that is not, dwell in his tabernacle, let brimstone be sprinkled in his tent.
15תשכון באהלו מבלי לו יזרה על נוהו גפרית׃
16Let his roots be dried up beneath, and his harvest destroyed above.
16מתחת שרשיו יבשו וממעל ימל קצירו׃
17Let the memory of him perish from the earth and let not his name be renowned in the streets.
17זכרו אבד מני ארץ ולא שם לו על פני חוץ׃
18He shall drive him out of light into darkness, and shall remove him out of the world.
18יהדפהו מאור אל חשך ומתבל ינדהו׃
19His seed shall not subsist, nor his offspring among his people, nor any remnants in his country.
19לא נין לו ולא נכד בעמו ואין שריד במגוריו׃
20They that come after him shall be astonished at his day, and horror shall fall upon them that went before.
20על יומו נשמו אחרנים וקדמנים אחזו שער׃
21These men are the tabernacles of the wicked, and this the place of him that knoweth not God.
21אך אלה משכנות עול וזה מקום לא ידע אל׃
