< أَيُّوبَ 39 >

«أَتَعْرِفُ وَقْتَ وِلَادَةِ وُعُولِ ٱلصُّخُورِ، أَوْ تُلَاحِظُ مَخَاضَ ٱلْأَيَائِلِ؟ ١ 1
Do you know at what time the wild goats in the rocks bear their young? Can you watch when the deer are having their fawns?
أَتَحْسُبُ ٱلشُّهُورَ ٱلَّتِي تُكَمِّلُهَا، أَوْ تَعْلَمُ مِيقَاتَ وِلَادَتِهِنَّ؟ ٢ 2
Can you count the months that they gestate? Do you know the time when they bear their young?
يَبْرُكْنَ وَيَضَعْنَ أَوْلَادَهُنَّ. يَدْفَعْنَ أَوْجَاعَهُنَّ. ٣ 3
They crouch down and birth their young, and then they finish their labor pains.
تَبْلُغُ أَوْلَادُهُنَّ. تَرْبُو فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. تَخْرُجُ وَلَا تَعُودُ إِلَيْهِنَّ. ٤ 4
Their young ones become strong and grow up in the open fields; they go out and do not come back again.
«مَنْ سَرَّحَ ٱلْفَرَاءَ حُرًّا، وَمَنْ فَكَّ رُبُطَ حِمَارِ ٱلْوَحْشِ؟ ٥ 5
Who let the wild donkey go free? Who has untied the bonds of the swift donkey,
ٱلَّذِي جَعَلْتُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةَ بَيْتَهُ وَٱلسِّبَاخَ مَسْكَنَهُ. ٦ 6
whose home I have made in the Arabah, his house in the salt land?
يَضْحَكُ عَلَى جُمْهُورِ ٱلْقَرْيَةِ. لَا يَسْمَعُ زَجْرَ ٱلسَّائِقِ. ٧ 7
He laughs in scorn at the noises in the city; he does not hear the driver's shouts.
دَائِرَةُ ٱلْجِبَالِ مَرْعَاهُ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ خُضْرَةٍ يُفَتِّشُ. ٨ 8
He roams over the mountains as his pastures; there he looks for every green plant to eat.
«أَيَرْضَى ٱلثَّوْرُ ٱلْوَحْشِيُّ أَنْ يَخْدُمَكَ، أَمْ يَبِيتُ عِنْدَ مِعْلَفِكَ؟ ٩ 9
Will the wild ox be happy to serve you? Will he consent to stay by your manger?
أَتَرْبِطُ ٱلثَّوْرَ ٱلْوَحْشِيَّ بِرِبَاطِهِ فِي ٱلتَّلْمِ، أَمْ يُمَهِّدُ ٱلْأَوْدِيَةَ وَرَاءَكَ؟ ١٠ 10
Can you use ropes to hold the wild ox in the furrows? Will he harrow the valleys as he follows after you?
أَتَثِقُ بِهِ لِأَنَّ قُوَّتَهُ عَظِيمَةٌ، أَوْ تَتْرُكُ لَهُ تَعَبَكَ؟ ١١ 11
Will you trust him because his strength is great? Will you leave your work to him to do?
أَتَأْتَمِنُهُ أَنَّهُ يَأْتِي بِزَرْعِكَ وَيُجْمَعُ إِلَى بَيْدَرِكَ؟ ١٢ 12
Will you depend on him to bring your grain home, to gather the grain for your threshing floor?
«جَنَاحُ ٱلنَّعَامَةِ يُرَفْرِفُ. أَفَهُوَ مَنْكِبٌ رَؤُوفٌ، أَمْ رِيشٌ؟ ١٣ 13
The wings of the ostrich wave proudly, but are they the pinions and plumage of love?
لِأَنَّهَا تَتْرُكُ بَيْضَهَا وَتُحْمِيهِ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ، ١٤ 14
For she leaves her eggs on the earth, and she lets them keep warm in the dust;
وَتَنْسَى أَنَّ ٱلرِّجْلَ تَضْغَطُهُ، أَوْ حَيَوَانَ ٱلْبَرِّ يَدُوسُهُ. ١٥ 15
she forgets that a foot might crush them or that a wild beast might trample them.
تَقْسُو عَلَى أَوْلَادِهَا كَأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ لَهَا. بَاطِلٌ تَعَبُهَا بِلَا أَسَفٍ. ١٦ 16
She deals roughly with her young ones as if they were not hers; she does not fear that her labor might have been in vain,
لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ أَنْسَاهَا ٱلْحِكْمَةَ، وَلَمْ يَقْسِمْ لَهَا فَهْمًا. ١٧ 17
because God has deprived her of wisdom and has not given her any understanding.
عِنْدَمَا تُحْوِذُ نَفْسَهَا إِلَى ٱلْعَلَاءِ، تَضْحَكُ عَلَى ٱلْفَرَسِ وَعَلَى رَاكِبِهِ. ١٨ 18
When she runs swiftly, she laughs in scorn at the horse and its rider.
«هَلْ أَنْتَ تُعْطِي ٱلْفَرَسَ قُوَّتَهُ وَتَكْسُو عُنُقَهُ عُرْفًا؟ ١٩ 19
Have you given the horse his strength? Did you clothe his neck with his flowing mane?
أَتُوثِبُهُ كَجَرَادَةٍ؟ نَفْخُ مَنْخَرِهِ مُرْعِبٌ. ٢٠ 20
Have you ever made him jump like a locust? The majesty of his snorting is fearsome.
يَبْحَثُ فِي ٱلْوَادِي وَيَنْفِزُ بِبَأْسٍ. يَخْرُجُ لِلِقَاءِ ٱلْأَسْلِحَةِ. ٢١ 21
He paws in might and rejoices in his strength; he rushes out to meet the weapons.
يَضْحَكُ عَلَى ٱلْخَوْفِ وَلَا يَرْتَاعُ، وَلَا يَرْجِعُ عَنِ ٱلسَّيْفِ. ٢٢ 22
He mocks fear and is not dismayed; he does not turn back from the sword.
عَلَيْهِ تَصِلُّ ٱلسِّهَامُ وَسِنَانُ ٱلرُّمْحِ وَٱلْمِزْرَاقِ. ٢٣ 23
The quiver rattles against his flank, along with the flashing spear and the javelin.
فِي وَثْبِهِ وَرُجْزِهِ يَلْتَهِمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَلَا يُؤْمِنُ أَنَّهُ صَوْتُ ٱلْبُوقِ. ٢٤ 24
He swallows up ground with fierceness and rage; at the trumpet's sound, he cannot stand in one place.
عِنْدَ نَفْخِ ٱلْبُوقِ يَقُولُ: هَهْ! وَمِنْ بَعِيدٍ يَسْتَرْوِحُ ٱلْقِتَالَ صِيَاحَ ٱلْقُوَّادِ وَٱلْهُتَافَ. ٢٥ 25
Whenever the trumpet sounds, he says, 'Aha!' He smells the battle from far away— the thunderous shouts of the commanders and the outcries.
«أَمِنْ فَهْمِكَ يَسْتَقِلُّ ٱلْعُقَابُ وَيَنْشُرُ جَنَاحَيْهِ نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ؟ ٢٦ 26
Is it by your wisdom that the hawk soars, that he stretches out his wings for the south?
أَوْ بِأَمْرِكَ يُحَلِّقُ ٱلنَّسْرُ وَيُعَلِّي وَكْرَهُ؟ ٢٧ 27
Is it at your orders that the eagle mounts up and makes his nest in high places?
يَسْكُنُ ٱلصَّخْرَ وَيَبِيتُ عَلَى سِنِّ ٱلصَّخْرِ وَٱلْمَعْقِلِ. ٢٨ 28
He lives on cliffs and makes his home on the peaks of cliffs, a stronghold.
مِنْ هُنَاكَ يَتَحَسَّسُ قُوتَهُ. تُبْصِرُهُ عَيْنَاهُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ. ٢٩ 29
From there he searches for victims; his eyes see them from very far away.
فِرَاخُهُ تَحْسُو ٱلدَّمَ، وَحَيْثُمَا تَكُنِ ٱلْقَتْلَى فَهُنَاكَ هُوَ». ٣٠ 30
His young also drink up blood; where killed people are, there he is.”
