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