Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
1ΥΠΟΛΑΒΩΝ δὲ Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει·
2“Dominion and fear are with him. He makes peace in his high places.
2τί γὰρ προοίμιον ἢ φόβος παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ ὁ ποιῶν τὴν σύμπασαν ἐν ὑψίστῳ;
3Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?
3μὴ γάρ τις ὑπολάβοι ὅτι ἐστὶ παρέκλυσις πειραταῖς, ἐπὶ τίνας δὲ οὐκ ἐπελεύσεται ἔνεδρα παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ;
4How then can man be just with God? Or how can he who is born of a woman be clean?
4πῶς γὰρ ἔσται δίκαιος βροτὸς ἔναντι Κυρίου; ἢ τίς ἂν ἀποκαθαρίσαι αὐτὸν γεννητὸς γυναικός;
5Behold, even the moon has no brightness, 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 a worm, and the son of man, who is a worm!”
6ἔα δέ, ἄνθρωπος σαπρία καὶ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου σκώληξ.
