< أَيُّوبَ 26 >

فَأَجَابَ أَيُّوبُ وَقَالَ: ١ 1
Then Job answered and said:
«كَيْفَ أَعَنْتَ مَنْ لَا قُوَّةَ لَهُ، وَخَلَّصْتَ ذِرَاعًا لَا عِزَّ لَهَا؟ ٢ 2
How hast thou helped him that is without power! How hast thou saved the arm that hath no strength!
كَيْفَ أَشَرْتَ عَلَى مَنْ لَا حِكْمَةَ لَهُ، وَأَظْهَرْتَ ٱلْفَهْمَ بِكَثْرَةٍ؟ ٣ 3
How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
لِمَنْ أَعْلَنْتَ أَقْوَالًا، وَنَسَمَةُ مَنْ خَرَجَتْ مِنْكَ؟ ٤ 4
With whose help hast thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
«اَلْأَخْيِلَةُ تَرْتَعِدُ مِنْ تَحْتِ ٱلْمِيَاهِ وَسُكَّانِهَا. ٥ 5
The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof.
ٱلْهَاوِيَةُ عُرْيَانَةٌ قُدَّامَهُ، وَٱلْهَلَاكُ لَيْسَ لَهُ غِطَاءٌ. (Sheol h7585) ٦ 6
The nether-world is naked before Him, and Destruction hath no covering. (Sheol h7585)
يَمُدُّ ٱلشَّمَالَ عَلَى ٱلْخَلَاءِ، وَيُعَلِّقُ ٱلْأَرْضَ عَلَى لَا شَيْءٍ. ٧ 7
He stretcheth out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth over nothing.
يَصُرُّ ٱلْمِيَاهَ فِي سُحُبِهِ فَلَا يَتَمَزَّقُ ٱلْغَيْمُ تَحْتَهَا. ٨ 8
He bindeth up the waters in His thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
يَحْجُبُ وَجْهَ كُرْسِيِّهِ بَاسِطًا عَلَيْهِ سَحَابَهُ. ٩ 9
He closeth in the face of His throne, and spreadeth His cloud upon it.
رَسَمَ حَدًّا عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْمِيَاهِ عِنْدَ ٱتِّصَالِ ٱلنُّورِ بِٱلظُّلْمَةِ. ١٠ 10
He hath described a boundary upon the face of the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
أَعْمِدَةُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ تَرْتَعِدُ وَتَرْتَاعُ مِنْ زَجْرِهِ. ١١ 11
The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at His rebuke.
بِقُوَّتِهِ يُزْعِجُ ٱلْبَحْرَ، وَبِفَهْمِهِ يَسْحَقُ رَهَبَ. ١٢ 12
He stirreth up the sea with His power, and by His understanding He smiteth through Rahab.
بِنَفْخَتِهِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ مُسْفِرَةٌ وَيَدَاهُ أَبْدَأَتَا ٱلْحَيَّةَ ٱلْهَارِبَةَ. ١٣ 13
By His breath the heavens are serene; His hand hath pierced the slant serpent.
هَا هَذِهِ أَطْرَافُ طُرُقِهِ، وَمَا أَخْفَضَ ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي نَسْمَعُهُ مِنْهُ وَأَمَّا رَعْدُ جَبَرُوتِهِ فَمَنْ يَفْهَمُ؟». ١٤ 14
Lo, these are but the outskirts of His ways; and how small a whisper is heard of Him! But the thunder of His mighty deeds who can understand?
