Bildad's Third Speech
God Is the One To Fear
1 Bildad from Shuah said:
2 God is the one to fear,
because God is in control
and rules the heavens.
3 Who can count his army of stars?
Isn't God the source of light?
4 How can anyone be innocent
in the sight of God?
5 To him, not even the light
of the moon and stars
can ever be pure.
6 So how can we humans,
when we are merely worms?
Bilidadi la diyaamu labaŋo
1 Bituŋ Bilidadi Suhankoo ye jaabiroo ke ko:
2 Kandaayaa niŋ silaŋo semboo,
wo be Alla le bulu.
Ate le ye kayiroo sabatindi a la Arijanoo kono santo.
3 Jumaa le si Alla la kelediŋ kafoolu yaatee noo?
Jumaa le be jee, a la maloo buka futa meŋ ma?
4 Hadamadiŋo si tiliŋ noo Alla ñaa koto ñaadii le?
Musoo ye moo meŋ wuluu, wo maarii si seneyaa noo ñaadii?
5 Hani karoo faŋo la kuwo le maŋ faramansa Alla ñaa koto,
sako looloolu si foori a fee.
6 Saayiŋ sako hadamadiŋo duŋ,
meŋ, a ka faa le, a ye toli.
A la kuwo ka muluŋ ne ko tumboo.
