¹Siis rääkis suhiit Bildad ja ütles:

¹And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,

²'Millal sa teed sõnadele lõpu? Mõtle järele, ja rääkigem siis.

²How long will ye hunt for words? Be intelligent, and then we will speak.

³Miks peetakse meid loomadeks, oleme rumalad teie silmis?

³Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed stupid in your sight?

⁴Sina, kes vihas oma hinge lõhki käristad - kas sinu pärast jäetakse maha maa või nihutatakse kalju oma asemelt?

⁴Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of its place?

⁵Jah, õela valgus kustub ja tema tuleleek ei paista.

⁵Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the flame of his fire shall not shine.

⁶Ta telgis pimeneb valgus ja ta kohal kustub tema lamp.

⁶The light shall become dark in his tent, and his lamp over him shall be put out.

⁷Ta jõudsad sammud jäävad lühikeseks ja ta oma nõu paiskab ta maha.

⁷The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.

⁸Sest ta oma jalad viivad ta võrku ja ta käib püüniste peal.

⁸For he is sent into the net by his own feet, and he walketh on the meshes;

⁹Püüdepael haarab teda kannast, lõks hoiab teda kinni.

⁹The gin taketh [him] by the heel, the snare layeth hold on him;

¹⁰Tema jaoks on peidetud maa peale köis, teerajale silmus.

¹⁰A cord is hidden for him in the ground, and his trap in the way.

¹¹Kõikjal kohutab teda suur hirm ja kihutab tema kannul.

¹¹Terrors make him afraid on every side, and chase him at his footsteps.

¹²Õnnetus tunneb nälga tema järele, hukatus on valmis tema kukutamiseks.

¹²His strength is hunger-bitten, and calamity is ready at his side.

¹³Tõbi sööb ta naha, surma esmasündinu sööb ta liikmed.

¹³The firstborn of death devoureth the members of his body; it will devour his members.

¹⁴Tema telgist kistakse ta lootus ja teda aetakse suure hirmu kuninga juurde.

¹⁴His confidence shall be rooted out of his tent, and it shall lead him away to the king of terrors:

¹⁵Tema telki asub elama see, mis pole tema oma, ta eluaseme peale puistatakse väävlit.

¹⁵They who are none of his shall dwell in his tent; brimstone shall be showered upon his habitation:

¹⁶Temal kuivavad juured alt ja närtsivad oksad pealt.

¹⁶His roots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off;

¹⁷Mälestus temast kaob maalt ja ta nime ei nimetata tänaval.

¹⁷His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name on the pasture-grounds.

¹⁸Ta tõugatakse valgusest pimedusse ja aetakse maailmast ära.

¹⁸He is driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.

¹⁹Temale ei jää järglast ega sugu oma rahva seas, ja mitte ühtegi pääsenut sealt, kus ta viibis.

¹⁹He hath neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining in the places of his sojourn.

²⁰Inimesed läänes ehmuvad tema hukatuspäevast ja inimesi idas haarab hirm.

²⁰They that come after shall be astonished at his day, as they that went before [them] were affrighted.

²¹Tõesti, nõnda sünnib ülekohtutegija hoonega ja nõnda selle paigaga, kes Jumalat ei tunne.'

²¹Surely, such are the dwellings of the unrighteous man, and such the place of him that knoweth not ùGod.
