Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Βαλσὰς ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει
Τί γὰρ προοίμιον ἥ φόβος ὁ παρʼ αὐτοῦ,
ὁ ποιῶν τὴν σύμπασον ἐν ύψίστῳ;
μὴ γάρ τισ ὑπολάβοι ὅτι ἐστὶν παρέλκυσις πειραταῖς;
ἔπὶ τίνας δὲ οὐκ ἐπελεύσεται ἕναντι Κυρίου;
πῶς υὰρ ἔσται δίκαιος βροτὸς ἔναντι κυρίου;
ἢ τίς ἂν ἀποκαθαρίσαι αὺτὸν γεννητὸς γυναικός;
ἦ σελήνῃ συντάσσει, καὶ οὐκ έπιφαύσκει·
ἄστρα δὲ οὐ καθαρὰ ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ.
ἔα δέ, ἄνθρωπος σαπρία καὶ υίὸς ἀνθρώπου ακώληξ.

Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
Dominion and fear are with him; He makes peace in his high places.
Can his armies be counted? On whom does his light not arise?
How then can man be just with God? Or how can he who is born of a woman be clean?
Behold, even the moon has no brightness, And the stars are not pure in his sight;
How much less man, who is a worm! The son of man, who is a worm!

[5]
But look at all the stars, with which heaven is crowned;
The stars are bright, and the moon is radiant;
So it seems to us mortals;
In the eyes of God the stars are not bright, nor is the gleaming moon;
For many things, O Job, that seem fair have appeared to him not fair.
