Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
1Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχίτης, λέγει,
2“Dominion and fear are with him. He makes peace in his high places.
2Τί γὰρ προοίμιον ἢ φόβος παρʼ αὐτοῦ ὁ ποιῶν τὴν σύμπασαν ἐν ὑψιστῳ;
3Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?
3Μὴ γάρ τις ὑπολάβοι ὅτι ἐστὶ παρέλκυσις πειραταῖς· ἐπὶ τίνας δὲ οὐκ ἐπελεύσεται ἔνεδρα παρʼ 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 δὲ, ἄνθρωπος σαπρία, καὶ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου σκώληξ.
