I do not really know much about bind but have you checked /etc/
services.
I ask because it tries to bind to port 37 and not port 53

So in case the default port shall be used and the /etc/services file
is OK i would try the -p option

From
man bind
....
-pPortNumber
Reassigns the Internet socket where the named8 daemon
listens for DOMAIN requests. If this variable is not specified, the
named8 daemon listens to the socket defined in the /etc/services
file; the entry in the /etc/services file begins with domain
....
