1ϋπολαβων δε βαλδαδ ο ϲαυχιτηϲ λεγει 2τι γαρ προοιμιον η φοβοϲ παρ αυτου ο ποιων την ϲυμπαϲαν εν υψιϲτω 3μη γαρ τιϲ ϋπολαβοι · οτι εϲτιν παρελκυϲιϲ πιραταιϲ επι τιναϲ δε · ουκ επελευϲεται ενεδρα παρ αυτου 4πωϲ γαρ εϲται δικαιοϲ βροτοϲ · εναντι κυ η τιϲ αν αποκαθαριϲαι αυτον . γεννητοϲ γυναικοϲ 5ει ϲεληνη ϲυνταϲϲει · και ουκ επιφαυϲκι αϲτρα δε ου καθαρα εναντιον αυτου
1Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said, 2Dominion and fear are with him, he maketh peace in his high places. 3Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arise? 4How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman? 5Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
6εα δε ανον ϲαπρια και ϋϊοϲ ανου ϲκωληξ
6How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
