< أَيُّوبَ 40 >
فَأَجَابَ ٱلرَّبُّ أَيُّوبَ فَقَالَ: | ١ 1 |
Moreouer ye Lord spake vnto Iob, and said,
«هَلْ يُخَاصِمُ ٱلْقَدِيرَ مُوَبِّخُهُ، أَمِ ٱلْمُحَاجُّ ٱللهَ يُجَاوِبُهُ؟». | ٢ 2 |
Is this to learne to striue with the Almightie? he that reprooueth God, let him answere to it.
فَأَجَابَ أَيُّوبُ ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالَ: | ٣ 3 |
Then Iob answered the Lord, saying,
«هَا أَنَا حَقِيرٌ، فَمَاذَا أُجَاوِبُكَ؟ وَضَعْتُ يَدِي عَلَى فَمِي. | ٤ 4 |
Beholde, I am vile: what shall I answere thee? I will lay mine hand vpon my mouth.
مَرَّةً تَكَلَّمْتُ فَلَا أُجِيبُ، وَمَرَّتَيْنِ فَلَا أَزِيدُ». | ٥ 5 |
Once haue I spoken, but I will answere no more, yea twise, but I will proceede no further.
فَأَجَابَ ٱلرَّبُّ أَيُّوبَ مِنَ ٱلْعَاصِفَةِ فَقَالَ: | ٦ 6 |
Againe the Lord answered Iob out of the whirle winde, and said,
«ٱلْآنَ شُدَّ حَقْوَيْكَ كَرَجُلٍ. أَسْأَلُكَ فَتُعْلِمُنِي. | ٧ 7 |
Girde vp now thy loynes like a man: I will demaunde of thee, and declare thou vnto me.
لَعَلَّكَ تُنَاقِضُ حُكْمِي، تَسْتَذْنِبُنِي لِكَيْ تَتَبَرَّرَ أَنْتَ؟ | ٨ 8 |
Wilt thou disanul my iudgement? or wilt thou condemne me, that thou mayst be iustified?
هَلْ لَكَ ذِرَاعٌ كَمَا لِلهِ، وَبِصَوْتٍ مِثْلِ صَوْتِهِ تُرْعِدُ؟ | ٩ 9 |
Or hast thou an arme like God? or doest thou thunder with a voyce like him?
تَزَيَّنِ ٱلْآنَ بِٱلْجَلَالِ وَٱلْعِزِّ، وَٱلْبَسِ ٱلْمَجْدَ وَٱلْبَهَاءَ. | ١٠ 10 |
Decke thy selfe now with maiestie and excellencie, and aray thy selfe with beautie and glory.
فَرِّقْ فَيْضَ غَضَبِكَ، وَٱنْظُرْ كُلَّ مُتَعَظِّمٍ وَٱخْفِضْهُ. | ١١ 11 |
Cast abroad the indignation of thy wrath, and beholde euery one that is proude, and abase him.
اُنْظُرْ إِلَى كُلِّ مُتَعَظِّمٍ وَذَلِّلْهُ، وَدُسِ ٱلْأَشْرَارَ فِي مَكَانِهِمِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Looke on euery one that is arrogant, and bring him lowe: and destroy the wicked in their place.
ٱطْمِرْهُمْ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ مَعًا، وَٱحْبِسْ وُجُوهَهُمْ فِي ٱلظَّلَامِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Hide them in the dust together, and binde their faces in a secret place.
فَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَحْمَدُكَ لِأَنَّ يَمِينَكَ تُخَلِّصُكَ. | ١٤ 14 |
Then will I confesse vnto thee also, that thy right hand can saue thee.
«هُوَذَا بَهِيمُوثُ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتُهُ مَعَكَ يَأْكُلُ ٱلْعُشْبَ مِثْلَ ٱلْبَقَرِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Behold now Behemoth (whom I made with thee) which eateth grasse as an oxe.
هَا هِيَ قُوَّتُهُ فِي مَتْنَيْهِ، وَشِدَّتُهُ فِي عَضَلِ بَطْنِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
Behold now, his strength is in his loynes, and his force is in the nauil of his belly.
يَخْفِضُ ذَنَبَهُ كَأَرْزَةٍ. عُرُوقُ فَخِذَيْهِ مَضْفُورَةٌ. | ١٧ 17 |
When hee taketh pleasure, his taile is like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapt together.
عِظَامُهُ أَنَابِيبُ نُحَاسٍ، جِرْمُهَا حَدِيدٌ مَمْطُولٌ. | ١٨ 18 |
His bones are like staues of brasse, and his small bones like staues of yron.
هُوَ أَوَّلُ أَعْمَالِ ٱللهِ. ٱلَّذِي صَنَعَهُ أَعْطَاهُ سَيْفَهُ. | ١٩ 19 |
He is the chiefe of the wayes of God: he that made him, will make his sworde to approch vnto him.
لِأَنَّ ٱلْجِبَالَ تُخْرِجُ لَهُ مَرْعًى، وَجَمِيعَ وُحُوشِ ٱلْبَرِّ تَلْعَبُ هُنَاكَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Surely the mountaines bring him foorth grasse, where all the beastes of the fielde play.
تَحْتَ ٱلسِّدْرَاتِ يَضْطَجِعُ فِي سِتْرِ ٱلْقَصَبِ وَٱلْغَمِقَةِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Lyeth hee vnder the trees in the couert of the reede and fennes?
تُظَلِّلُهُ ٱلسِّدْرَاتُ بِظِلِّهَا. يُحِيطُ بِهِ صَفْصَافُ ٱلسَّوَاقِي. | ٢٢ 22 |
Can the trees couer him with their shadow? or can the willowes of the riuer compasse him about?
هُوَذَا ٱلنَّهْرُ يَفِيضُ فَلَا يَفِرُّ هُوَ. يَطْمَئِنُّ وَلَوِ ٱنْدَفَقَ ٱلْأُرْدُنُّ فِي فَمِهِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Behold, he spoyleth the riuer, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw vp Iorden into his mouth.
هَلْ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ؟ هَلْ يُثْقَبُ أَنْفُهُ بِخِزَامَةٍ؟ | ٢٤ 24 |
Hee taketh it with his eyes, and thrusteth his nose through whatsoeuer meeteth him.
