Old Testament
1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
1 ΥΠΟΛΑΒΩΝ δὲ Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει·
2 “Dominion and fear belong to Him; He makes peace in His high places.
2 τί γὰρ προοίμιον ἢ φόβος παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ ὁ ποιῶν τὴν σύμπασαν ἐν ὑψίστῳ;
3 Is there any number to His armies? Upon whom does His light not rise?
3 μὴ γάρ τις ὑπολάβοι ὅτι ἐστὶ παρέκλυσις πειραταῖς, ἐπὶ τίνας δὲ οὐκ ἐπελεύσεται ἔνεδρα παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ;
4 How then can man be righteous before God? Or how can he be pure who is born of a woman?
4 πῶς γὰρ ἔσται δίκαιος βροτὸς ἔναντι Κυρίου; ἢ τίς ἂν ἀποκαθαρίσαι αὐτὸν γεννητὸς γυναικός;
5 If even the moon does not shine, And the stars are not pure in His sight,
5 εἰ σελήνῃ συντάσσει, καὶ οὐκ ἐπιφαύσκει, ἄστρα δὲ οὐ καθαρὰ ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ.
6 How much less man, who is a maggot, And a son of man, who is a worm?”
6 ἔα δέ, ἄνθρωπος σαπρία καὶ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου σκώληξ.
