أَيُّوبَ 25

١ 1 فَأَجَابَ بِلْدَدُ ٱلشُّوحِيُّ وَقَالَ:

Then Bildad the Shuhite spoke up and said,

٢ 2 «ٱلسُّلْطَانُ وَٱلْهَيْبَةُ عِنْدَهُ. هُوَ صَانِعُ ٱلسَّلَامِ فِي أَعَالِيهِ.

“Dominion and awe belong to God. He brings peace to his heavens.

٣ 3 هَلْ مِنْ عَدَدٍ لِجُنُودِهِ؟ وَعَلَى مَنْ لَا يُشْرِقُ نُورُهُ؟

Who can count his armies? Is there anywhere his light doesn't shine?

٤ 4 فَكَيْفَ يَتَبَرَّرُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ عِنْدَ ٱللهِ؟ وَكَيْفَ يَزْكُو مَوْلُودُ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ؟

How can a human being be right before God? Can anyone born of woman be pure?

٥ 5 هُوَذَا نَفْسُ ٱلْقَمَرِ لَا يُضِيءُ، وَٱلْكَوَاكِبُ غَيْرُ نَقِيَّةٍ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ.

If in God's eyes even the moon does not shine brightly, and the stars are not pure,

٦ 6 فَكَمْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلرِّمَّةُ، وَٱبْنُ آدَمَ ٱلدُّودُ؟».

how much less a human being—who by comparison is like a maggot or a worm!”
