< أيُّوب 19 >
And Job answered and said,
«حَتَّى مَتَى تُعَذِّبُونَ نَفْسِي وَتَسْحَقُونَنِي بِالْكَلاَمِ الْمُوْجِعِ؟ | ٢ 2 |
How long will ye vex my soul, and crush me with words?
فَهَذِهِ عَشَرُ مَرَّاتٍ انْهَلْتُمْ عَلَيَّ تَعْيِيراً، وَلَمْ تَخْجَلُوا مِنَ التَّنْدِيدِ بِي! | ٣ 3 |
These ten times have ye reproached me; ye are not ashamed to stupefy me.
فَإِنْ كُنْتُ حَقّاً قَدْ ضَلَلْتُ فَإِنَّ أَخْطَائِي هِيَ مِنْ شَأْنِي وَحْدِي. | ٤ 4 |
And be it [that] I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.
وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ حَقّاً تَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَلَيَّ وَتَتَّخِذُونَ مِنْ عَارِي بُرْهَاناً ضِدِّي، | ٥ 5 |
If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and prove against me my reproach,
فَاعْلَمُوا إِذاً أَنَّ اللهَ هُوَ الَّذِي أَوْقَعَنِي فِي الْخَطَأِ وَأَلْقَى شِبَاكَهُ عَلَيَّ. | ٦ 6 |
Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath surrounded me with his net.
هَا إِنِّي أَسْتَغِيثُ مِنَ الظُّلْمِ وَلاَ مُجِيبَ، وَأَهْتِفُ عَالِياً وَلَيْسَ مِنْ مُنْصِفٍ. | ٧ 7 |
Behold, I cry out of wrong, and I am not heard; I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.
قَدْ سَيَّجَ عَلَى طَرِيقِي فَلاَ أَعْبُرُ، وَخَيَّمَ عَلَى سُبُلِي بِالظُّلُمَاتِ. | ٨ 8 |
He hath hedged up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.
جَرَّدَنِي مِنْ مَجْدِي وَنَزَعَ تَاجِي عَنْ رَأْسِي. | ٩ 9 |
He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.
هَدَمَنِي مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ، فَتَلاَشَيْتُ، وَاسْتَأْصَلَ مِثْلَ غَرْسٍ رَجَائِي. | ١٠ 10 |
He breaketh me down on every side, and I am gone; and my hope hath he torn up as a tree.
أَضْرَمَ عَلَيَّ غَضَبَهُ وَحَسِبَنِي مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
And he hath kindled his anger against me, and hath counted me unto him as one of his enemies.
زَحَفَتْ قُوَّاتُهُ دَفْعَةً وَاحِدَةً لِيُمَهِّدُوا طَرِيقَ حِصَارٍ ضِدِّي، وَعَسْكَرُوا حَوْلَ خَيْمَتِي. | ١٢ 12 |
His troops have come together and cast up their way against me, and have encamped round about my tent.
أَبْعَدَ عَنِّي إِخْوَتِي، فَاعْتَزَلَ عَنِّي مَعَارِفِي. | ١٣ 13 |
He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are quite estranged from me.
خَذَلَنِي ذَوُو قَرَابَتِي وَنَسِيَنِي أَصْدِقَائِي. | ١٤ 14 |
My kinsfolk have failed, and my known friends have forgotten me.
وَحَسِبَنِي ضُيُوفِي وَإِمَائِي غَرِيباً، أَصْبَحْتُ فِي أَعْيُنِهِمْ أَجْنَبِيّاً. | ١٥ 15 |
The sojourners in my house and my maids count me as a stranger; I am an alien in their sight.
أَدْعُو خَادِمِي فَلاَ يُجِيبُ، مَعَ أَنِّي تَوَسَّلْتُ إِلَيْهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
I called my servant, and he answered not; I entreated him with my mouth.
عَافَتْ زَوْجَتِي رَائِحَةَ أَنْفَاسِي الْخَبِيثَةَ، وَكَرِهَنِي إخْوَتِي فَابْتَعَدُوا عَنِّي. | ١٧ 17 |
My breath is strange to my wife, and my entreaties to the children of my [mother's] womb.
حَتَّى الصِّبْيَانُ يَزْدَرُونَنِي. إذَا قُمْتُ يَسْخَرُونَ مِنِّي. | ١٨ 18 |
Even young children despise me; I rise up, and they speak against me.
مَقَتَنِي أَصْدِقَائِي الْحَمِيمُونَ، وَالَّذِينَ أَحْبَبْتُهُمُ انْقَلَبُوا عَلَيَّ. | ١٩ 19 |
All my intimate friends abhor me, and they whom I loved are turned against me.
لَصِقَتْ عِظَامِي بِجِلْدِي وَلَحْمِي، وَنَجَوْتُ بِجِلْدِ أَسْنَانِي! | ٢٠ 20 |
My bones cleave to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
ارْفُقُوا بِي يَاأَصْدِقَائِي، لأَنَّ يَدَ الرَّبِّ قَدْ حَطَّمَتْنِي. | ٢١ 21 |
Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.
لِمَاذَا تُطَارِدُونَنِي كَمَا يُطَارِدُنِي اللهُ؟ أَلاَ تَشْبَعُونَ أَبَداً مِنْ لَحْمِي؟ | ٢٢ 22 |
Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?
مَنْ لِي بِأَنْ تُدَوَّنَ أَقْوَالِي! يَالَيْتَهَا تُسَجَّلُ فِي كِتَابٍ! | ٢٣ 23 |
Oh would that my words were written! oh that they were inscribed in a book!
يَالَيْتَهَا تُنْقَشُ بِقَلَمِ حَدِيدٍ وَبِرَصَاصٍ عَلَى صَخْرٍ إِلَى الأَبَدِ! | ٢٤ 24 |
That with an iron style and lead they were graven in the rock for ever!
أَمَّا أَنَا فَإِنِّي مُوْقِنٌ أَنَّ فَادِيَّ حَيٌّ، وَأَنَّهُ لاَبُدَّ فِي النِّهَايَةِ أَنْ يَقُومَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And [as for] me, I know that my Redeemer liveth, and the Last, he shall stand upon the earth;
وَبَعْدَ أَنْ يَفْنَى جِلْدِي، فَإِنِّي بِذَاتِي أُعَايِنُ اللهَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And [if] after my skin this shall be destroyed, yet from out of my flesh shall I see God;
الَّذِي أُشَاهِدُهُ لِنَفْسِي فَتَنْظُرُهُ عَيْنَايَ وَلَيْسَ عَيْنَا آخَرَ، قَدْ فَنِيَتْ كُلْيَتَايَ شَوْقاً فِي دَاخِلِي. | ٢٧ 27 |
Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another: — my reins are consumed within me.
وَإِنْ قُلْتُمْ مَاذَا نَعْمَلُ لِنَضْطَهِدَهُ، لأَنَّ مَصْدَرَ الْمَتَاعِبِ كَامِنٌ فِيهِ؟ | ٢٨ 28 |
If ye say, How shall we persecute him? when the root of the matter is found in me,
فَاخْشَوْا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ مِنَ السَّيْفِ، لأَنَّ الْغَيْظَ يَجْلِبُ عِقَابَ السَّيْفِ، وَتَعْلَمُونَ آنَئِذٍ أَنَّ هُنَاكَ قَضَاءً». | ٢٩ 29 |
Be ye yourselves afraid of the sword! for the sword is fury against misdeeds, that ye may know there is a judgment.
