1Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,1וַ֭יַּעַן בִּלְדַּ֥ד הַשּׁוּחִ֗י וַיֹאמַֽר׃‪‬
2How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?2עַד־ אָ֥ן תְּמַלֶּל־ אֵ֑לֶּה וְר֥וּחַ כַּ֝בִּיר אִמְרֵי־ פִֽיךָ׃
3Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?3הַ֭אֵל יְעַוֵּ֣ת מִשְׁפָּ֑ט וְאִם־ שַׁ֝דַּ֗י יְעַוֵּֽת־ צֶֽדֶק׃
4If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;4אִם־ בָּנֶ֥יךָ חָֽטְאוּ־ ל֑וֹ וַֽ֝יְשַׁלְּחֵ֗ם בְּיַד־ פִּשְׁעָֽם׃
5If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;5אִם־ אַ֭תָּה תְּשַׁחֵ֣ר אֶל־ אֵ֑ל וְאֶל־ שַׁ֝דַּ֗י תִּתְחַנָּֽן׃
6If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.6אִם־ זַ֥ךְ וְיָשָׁ֗ר אָ֥תָּה כִּי־ עַ֭תָּה יָעִ֣יר עָלֶ֑יךָ וְ֝שִׁלַּ֗ם נְוַ֣ת צִדְקֶֽךָ׃
7Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.7וְהָיָ֣ה רֵאשִׁיתְךָ֣ מִצְעָ֑ר וְ֝אַחֲרִיתְךָ֗ יִשְׂגֶּ֥ה מְאֹֽד׃
8For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:8כִּֽי־ שְׁאַל־ נָ֭א לְדֹ֣ר רִישׁ֑וֹן וְ֝כוֹנֵ֗ן לְחֵ֣קֶר אֲבוֹתָֽם׃
9(For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)9כִּֽי־ תְמ֣וֹל אֲ֭נַחְנוּ וְלֹ֣א נֵדָ֑ע כִּ֤י צֵ֖ל יָמֵ֣ינוּ עֲלֵי־ אָֽרֶץ׃
10Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?10הֲלֹא־ הֵ֣ם י֭וֹרוּךָ יֹ֣אמְרוּ לָ֑ךְ וּ֝מִלִּבָּ֗ם יוֹצִ֥אוּ מִלִּֽים׃
11Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?11הֲיִֽגְאֶה־ גֹּ֭מֶא בְּלֹ֣א בִצָּ֑ה יִשְׂגֶּה־ אָ֥חוּ בְלִי־ מָֽיִם׃
12Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.12עֹדֶ֣נּוּ בְ֭אִבּוֹ לֹ֣א יִקָּטֵ֑ף וְלִפְנֵ֖י כָל־ חָצִ֣יר יִיבָֽשׁ׃
13So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:13כֵּ֗ן אָ֭רְחוֹת כָּל־ שֹׁ֣כְחֵי אֵ֑ל וְתִקְוַ֖ת חָנֵ֣ף תֹּאבֵֽד׃
14Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.14אֲשֶׁר־ יָק֥וֹט כִּסְל֑וֹ וּבֵ֥ית עַ֝כָּבִ֗ישׁ מִבְטַחֽוֹ׃
15He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.15יִשָּׁעֵ֣ן עַל־ בֵּ֭יתוֹ וְלֹ֣א יַעֲמֹ֑ד יַחֲזִ֥יק בּ֝֗וֹ וְלֹ֣א יָקֽוּם׃
16He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.16רָטֹ֣ב ה֭וּא לִפְנֵי־ שָׁ֑מֶשׁ וְעַ֥ל גַּ֝נָּת֗וֹ יֹֽנַקְתּ֥וֹ תֵצֵֽא׃
17His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.17עַל־ גַּ֭ל שָֽׁרָשָׁ֣יו יְסֻבָּ֑כוּ בֵּ֖ית אֲבָנִ֣ים יֶחֱזֶֽה׃
18If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.18אִם־ יְבַלְּעֶ֥נּוּ מִמְּקוֹמ֑וֹ וְכִ֥חֶשׁ בּ֝֗וֹ לֹ֣א רְאִיתִֽיךָ׃
19Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.19הֶן־ ה֭וּא מְשׂ֣וֹשׂ דַּרְכּ֑וֹ וּ֝מֵעָפָ֗ר אַחֵ֥ר יִצְמָֽחוּ׃
20Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:20הֶן־ אֵ֭ל לֹ֣א יִמְאַס־ תָּ֑ם וְלֹֽא־ יַ֝חֲזִ֗יק בְּיַד־ מְרֵעִֽים׃
21Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.21עַד־ יְמַלֵּ֣ה שְׂח֣וֹק פִּ֑יךָ וּשְׂפָתֶ֥יךָ תְרוּעָֽה׃
22They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.22שֹׂנְאֶ֥יךָ יִלְבְּשׁוּ־ בֹ֑שֶׁת וְאֹ֖הֶל רְשָׁעִ֣ים אֵינֶֽנּוּ׃ פ
