HOLY BIBLE: Job 25 (original) (raw)

1 ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Βαλδαδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει 2 τί γὰρ προοίμιον ἢ φόβος πα{R'} αὐτοῦ ὁ ποιῶν τὴν σύμπασαν ἐν ὑψίστῳ 3 μὴ γάρ τις ὑπολάβοι ὅτι ἔστιν παρέλκυσις πειραταῖς ἐπὶ τίνας δὲ οὐκ ἐπελεύσεται ἔνεδρα πα{R'} αὐτοῦ 4 πῶς γὰρ ἔσται δίκαιος βροτὸς ἔναντι κυρίου ἢ τίς ἂν ἀποκαθαρίσαι ἑαυτὸν γεννητὸς γυναικός 5 εἰ σελήνῃ συντάσσει καὶ οὐκ ἐπιφαύσκει ἄστρα δὲ οὐ καθαρὰ ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ 6 ἔα δέ ἄνθρωπος σαπρία καὶ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου σκώληξ

1 Then answered Baldad the Suhite: 2 Ay, but what power, ay, but what terrors he wields, who reigns peacefully, there in high heaven! 3 He, the lord of countless armies, he, whose light dazzles every eye! 4 And shall man, born of woman, win his suit, prove his innocence, when he is matched with God? 5 Dim shews the moon, tarnished the stars, under his eye; 6 and what is man but waste and worm in his presence?

1 Respondens autem Baldad Suhites, dixit: 2

Potestas et terror apud eum est,
qui facit concordiam in sublimibus suis.

3
Numquid est numerus militum ejus?
et super quem non surget lumen illius? 4
Numquid justificari potest homo comparatus Deo?
aut apparere mundus natus de muliere? 5
Ecce luna etiam non splendet,
et stellæ non sunt mundæ in conspectu ejus: 6
quanto magis homo putredo,
et filius hominis vermis?
