1 M arkaasaa Bildad oo ahaa reer Shuuxii u jawaabay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:

2 D owladnimo iyo cabsiba isagaa leh, Oo meelihiisa sarena nabad buu ka dhigaa.

“Dominion and fear belong to Him; He makes peace in His high places.

3 C iidammadiisu ma tiray leeyihiin? Oo yuu yahay kan aan iftiinkiisu ku soo bixin?

Is there any number to His armies? Upon whom does His light not rise?

4 B alse sidee baa nin u kari karaa inuu Ilaah hortiisa xaq ku ahaado? Mid naagu dhashayse sidee buu u karaa inuu nadiif ahaado?

How then can man be righteous before God? Or how can he be pure who is born of a woman?

5 B al eeg, xataa dayuxu hortiisa nuur kuma leh, Oo xiddiguhuna hortiisa daahir kuma aha.

If even the moon does not shine, And the stars are not pure in His sight,

6 I ntee buu ka sii liitaa nin dirxi ahu! Iyo binu-aadmiga dirxiga ahu!

How much less man, who is a maggot, And a son of man, who is a worm?”
