אִיּוֹב 25

1 וַ֭יַּעַן בִּלְדַּ֥ד הַשֻּׁחִ֗י וַיֹּאמַֽר׃

Then Bildad the Shuhite made answer and said,

2 הַמְשֵׁ֣ל וָפַ֣חַד עִמֹּ֑ו עֹשֶׂ֥ה שָׁ֝לֹ֗ום בִּמְרֹומָֽיו׃

Rule and power are his; he makes peace in his high places.

3 הֲיֵ֣שׁ מִ֭סְפָּר לִגְדוּדָ֑יו וְעַל־מִ֝֗י לֹא־יָק֥וּם אֹורֵֽהוּ׃

Is it possible for his armies to be numbered? and on whom is not his light shining?

4 וּמַה־יִּצְדַּ֣ק אֱנֹ֣ושׁ עִם־אֵ֑ל וּמַה־יִּ֝זְכֶּ֗ה יְל֣וּד אִשָּֽׁה׃

How then is it possible for man to be upright before God? or how may he be clean who is a son of woman?

5 הֵ֣ן עַד־יָ֭רֵחַ וְלֹ֣א יַאֲהִ֑יל וְ֝כֹוכָבִ֗ים לֹא־זַכּ֥וּ בְעֵינָֽיו׃

See, even the moon is not bright, and the stars are not clean in his eyes:

6 אַ֭ף כִּֽי־אֱנֹ֣ושׁ רִמָּ֑ה וּבֶן־אָ֝דָ֗ם תֹּולֵעָֽה׃ פ

How much less man who is an insect, and the son of man who is a worm!
