فَأَجَابَ بِلْدَدُ ٱلشُّوحِيُّ وَقَالَ: ١ 1
Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said,
«ٱلسُّلْطَانُ وَٱلْهَيْبَةُ عِنْدَهُ. هُوَ صَانِعُ ٱلسَّلَامِ فِي أَعَالِيهِ. ٢ 2
What beginning or fear is his—even he that makes all things in the highest?
هَلْ مِنْ عَدَدٍ لِجُنُودِهِ؟ وَعَلَى مَنْ لَا يُشْرِقُ نُورُهُ؟ ٣ 3
For let none think that there is a respite for robbers: and upon whom will there not come a snare from him?
فَكَيْفَ يَتَبَرَّرُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ عِنْدَ ٱللهِ؟ وَكَيْفَ يَزْكُو مَوْلُودُ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ؟ ٤ 4
For how shall a mortal be just before the Lord? or who that is born of a woman shall purify himself?
هُوَذَا نَفْسُ ٱلْقَمَرِ لَا يُضِيءُ، وَٱلْكَوَاكِبُ غَيْرُ نَقِيَّةٍ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ. ٥ 5
If he gives an order to the moon, then it shines not; and the stars are not pure before him.
فَكَمْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلرِّمَّةُ، وَٱبْنُ آدَمَ ٱلدُّودُ؟». ٦ 6
But alas! man is corruption, and the son of man a worm.
