< أَيُّوبَ 36 >

وَعَادَ أَلِيهُو فَقَالَ: ١ 1
Elihu also proceeded and sayde,
«ٱصْبِرْ عَلَيَّ قَلِيلًا، فَأُبْدِيَ لَكَ أَنَّهُ بَعْدُ لِأَجْلِ ٱللهِ كَلَامٌ. ٢ 2
Suffer me a litle, and I will instruct thee: for I haue yet to speake on Gods behalfe.
أَحْمِلُ مَعْرِفَتِي مِنْ بَعِيدٍ، وَأَنْسُبُ بِرًّا لِصَانِعِي. ٣ 3
I will fetche my knowledge afarre off, and will attribute righteousnes vnto my Maker.
حَقًّا لَا يَكْذِبُ كَلَامِي. صَحِيحُ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ عِنْدَكَ. ٤ 4
For truely my wordes shall not be false, and he that is perfect in knowledge, speaketh with thee.
«هُوَذَا ٱللهُ عَزِيزٌ، وَلَكِنَّهُ لَا يَرْذُلُ أَحَدًا. عَزِيزُ قُدْرَةِ ٱلْقَلْبِ. ٥ 5
Behold, the mighty God casteth away none that is mighty and valiant of courage.
لَا يُحْيي ٱلشِّرِّيرَ، بَلْ يُجْرِي قَضَاءَ ٱلْبَائِسِينَ. ٦ 6
He mainteineth not the wicked, but he giueth iudgement to the afflicted.
لَا يُحَوِّلُ عَيْنَيْهِ عَنِ ٱلْبَارِّ، بَلْ مَعَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ يُجْلِسُهُمْ عَلَى ٱلْكُرْسِيِّ أَبَدًا، فَيَرْتَفِعُونَ. ٧ 7
He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous, but they are with Kings in ye throne, where he placeth them for euer: thus they are exalted.
إِنْ أُوثِقُوا بِٱلْقُيُودِ، إِنْ أُخِذُوا فِي حِبَالَةِ ٱلذِّلِّ، ٨ 8
And if they bee bound in fetters and tyed with the cordes of affliction,
فَيُظْهِرُ لَهُمْ أَفْعَالَهُمْ وَمَعَاصِيَهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ تَجَبَّرُوا، ٩ 9
Then will he shewe them their worke and their sinnes, because they haue bene proude.
وَيَفْتَحُ آذَانَهُمْ لِلْإِنْذَارِ، وَيَأْمُرُ بِأَنْ يَرْجِعُوا عَنِ ٱلْإِثْمِ. ١٠ 10
He openeth also their eare to discipline, and commandeth them that they returne from iniquity.
إِنْ سَمِعُوا وَأَطَاعُوا قَضَوْا أَيَّامَهُمْ بِٱلْخَيْرِ وَسِنِيهِمْ بِٱلنِّعَمِ. ١١ 11
If they obey and serue him, they shall end their dayes in prosperity, and their yeres in pleasures.
وَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا، فَبِحَرْبَةِ ٱلْمَوْتِ يَزُولُونَ، وَيَمُوتُونَ بِعَدَمِ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ. ١٢ 12
But if they wil not obey, they shall passe by the sworde, and perish without knowledge.
أَمَّا فُجَّارُ ٱلْقَلْبِ فَيَذْخَرُونَ غَضَبًا. لَا يَسْتَغِيثُونَ إِذَا هُوَ قَيَّدَهُمْ. ١٣ 13
But the hypocrites of heart increase the wrath: for they call not when he bindeth them.
تَمُوتُ نَفْسُهُمْ فِي ٱلصِّبَا وَحَيَاتُهُمْ بَيْنَ ٱلْمَأْبُونِينَ. ١٤ 14
Their soule dyeth in youth, and their life among the whoremongers.
يُنَجِّي ٱلْبَائِسَ فِي ذِلِّهِ، وَيَفْتَحُ آذَانَهُمْ فِي ٱلضِّيقِ. ١٥ 15
He deliuereth the poore in his affliction, and openeth their eare in trouble.
«وَأَيْضًا يَقُودُكَ مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلضِّيقِ إِلَى رَحْبٍ لَا حَصْرَ فِيهِ، وَيَمْلَأُ مَؤُونَةَ مَائِدَتِكَ دُهْنًا. ١٦ 16
Euen so woulde he haue taken thee out of the streight place into a broade place and not shut vp beneath: and that which resteth vpon thy table, had bene full of fat.
حُجَّةَ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ أَكْمَلْتَ، فَٱلْحُجَّةُ وَٱلْقَضَاءُ يُمْسِكَانِكَ. ١٧ 17
But thou art ful of the iudgement of the wicked, though iudgement and equitie maintaine all things.
عِنْدَ غَضَبِهِ لَعَلَّهُ يَقُودُكَ بِصَفْقَةٍ. فَكَثْرَةُ ٱلْفِدْيَةِ لَا تَفُكُّكَ. ١٨ 18
For Gods wrath is, least hee should take that away in thine abundance: for no multitude of giftes can deliuer thee.
هَلْ يَعْتَبِرُ غِنَاكَ؟ لَا ٱلتِّبْرَ وَلَا جَمِيعَ قُوَى ٱلثَّرْوَةِ! ١٩ 19
Wil he regard thy riches? he regardeth not golde, nor all them that excel in strength.
لَا تَشْتَاقُ إِلَى ٱللَّيْلِ ٱلَّذِي يَرْفَعُ شُعُوبًا مِنْ مَوَاضِعِهِمْ. ٢٠ 20
Be not carefull in the night, howe he destroyeth the people out of their place.
اِحْذَرْ. لَا تَلْتَفِتْ إِلَى ٱلْإِثْمِ لِأَنَّكَ ٱخْتَرْتَ هَذَا عَلَى ٱلذِّلِّ. ٢١ 21
Take thou heede: looke not to iniquitie: for thou hast chosen it rather then affliction.
«هُوَذَا ٱللهُ يَتَعَالَى بِقُدْرَتِهِ. مَنْ مِثْلُهُ مُعَلِّمًا؟ ٢٢ 22
Beholde, God exalteth by his power: what teacher is like him?
مَنْ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ طَرِيقَهُ، أَوْ مَنْ يَقُولُ لَهُ: قَدْ فَعَلْتَ شَرًّا؟ ٢٣ 23
Who hath appointed to him his way? or who can say, Thou hast done wickedly?
اُذْكُرْ أَنْ تُعَظِّمَ عَمَلَهُ ٱلَّذِي يُغَنِّي بِهِ ٱلنَّاسُ. ٢٤ 24
Remember that thou magnifie his worke, which men behold.
كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ يُبْصِرُ بِهِ. ٱلنَّاسُ يَنْظُرُونَهُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ. ٢٥ 25
All men see it, and men beholde it afarre off.
هُوَذَا ٱللهُ عَظِيمٌ وَلَا نَعْرِفُهُ وَعَدَدُ سِنِيهِ لَا يُفْحَصُ. ٢٦ 26
Beholde, God is excellent, and we knowe him not, neither can the nomber of his yeres bee searched out.
لِأَنَّهُ يَجْذُبُ قِطَارَ ٱلْمَاءِ. تَسُحُّ مَطَرًا مِنْ ضَبَابِهَا ٢٧ 27
When he restraineth the droppes of water, the rayne powreth down by the vapour thereof,
ٱلَّذِي تَهْطِلُهُ ٱلسُّحُبُ وَتَقْطُرُهُ عَلَى أُنَاسٍ كَثِيرِينَ. ٢٨ 28
Which raine the cloudes do droppe and let fall abundantly vpon man.
فَهَلْ يُعَلِّلُ أَحَدٌ عَنْ شَقِّ ٱلْغَيْمِ أَوْ قَصِيفِ مِظَلَّتِهِ؟ ٢٩ 29
Who can know the diuisions of ye clouds and the thunders of his tabernacle?
هُوَذَا بَسَطَ نُورَهُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ، ثُمَّ يَتَغَطَّى بِأُصُولِ ٱلْيَمِّ. ٣٠ 30
Beholde, he spreadeth his light vpon it, and couereth the bottome of the sea.
لِأَنَّهُ بِهَذِهِ يَدِينُ ٱلشُّعُوبَ، وَيَرْزُقُ ٱلْقُوتَ بِكَثْرَةٍ. ٣١ 31
For thereby hee iudgeth the people, and giueth meate abundantly.
يُغَطِّي كَفَّيْهِ بِٱلنُّورِ، وَيَأْمُرُهُ عَلَى ٱلْعَدُوِّ. ٣٢ 32
He couereth the light with the clouds, and commandeth them to go against it.
يُخْبِرُ بِهِ رَعْدُهُ، ٱلْمَوَاشِيَ أَيْضًا بِصُعُودِهِ. ٣٣ 33
His companion sheweth him thereof, and there is anger in rising vp.
