Job 25 אִיּוֹב
Hebrew · transliteration · JPS 1917
1וַ֭יַּעַן בִּלְדַּ֥ד הַשֻּׁחִ֗י וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
vayya'an bildad hashuchi vayyomar
Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said:
2הַמְשֵׁ֣ל וָפַ֣חַד עִמּ֑וֹ עֹשֶׂ֥ה שָׁ֝ל֗וֹם בִּמְרוֹמָֽיו׃
hamshel vafachad immo ose shalom bimromav
Dominion and fear are with Him; He maketh peace in His high places.
3הֲיֵ֣שׁ מִ֭סְפָּר לִגְדוּדָ֑יו וְעַל־מִ֝֗י לֹא־יָק֥וּם אוֹרֵֽהוּ׃
hayesh mispar ligdudav ve'al-mi lo-yakum orehu
Is there any number of His armies? And upon whom doth not His light arise?
4וּמַה־יִּצְדַּ֣ק אֱנ֣וֹשׁ עִם־אֵ֑ל וּמַה־יִּ֝זְכֶּ֗ה יְל֣וּד אִשָּֽׁה׃
uma-yitzdak enosh im-el uma-yizke yelud isha
How then can man be just with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
5הֵ֣ן עַד־יָ֭רֵחַ וְלֹ֣א יַאֲהִ֑יל וְ֝כוֹכָבִ֗ים לֹא־זַכּ֥וּ בְעֵינָֽיו׃
hen ad-yareach velo ya'ahil vekhokhavim lo-zakku ve'enav
Behold, even the moon hath no brightness, And the stars are not pure in His sight;
6אַ֭ף כִּֽי־אֱנ֣וֹשׁ רִמָּ֑ה וּבֶן־אָ֝דָ֗ם תּוֹלֵעָֽה׃
af ki-enosh rimma uven-adam tole'a
How much less man, that is a worm! And the son of man, that is a maggot!
