< أيُّوب 26 >

أَيُّوبُ: ١ 1
Then Job answered, and said:
«يَا لَكُمْ مِنْ عَوْنٍ كَبِيرٍ لِلْخَائِرِ! كَيْفَ خَلَّصْتُمْ ذِرَاعاً وَاهِيَةً! ٢ 2
Whose helper art thou? is it of him that is weak? and dost thou hold up the arm of him that has no strength?
أَيَّةَ مَشَورَةٍ أَسْدَيْتُمْ لِلأَحْمَقِ! أَيَّةُ مَعْرِفَةٍ صَادِقَةٍ وَافِرَةٍ زَوَّدْتُمُوهُ بِها! ٣ 3
To whom hast thou given counsel? perhaps to him that hath no wisdom, and thou hast shewn thy very great prudence.
لِمَنْ نَطَقْتُمْ بِالْكَلِمَاتِ؟ وَرُوحُ مَنْ عَبَّرتُمْ عَنْهُ؟ ٤ 4
Whom hast thou desired to teach? was it not him that made life?
تَرْتَعِدُ الأَشْبَاحُ مِنْ تَحْتُ، وَكَذَلِكَ الْمِيَاهُ وَسُكَّانُهَا. ٥ 5
Behold the giants groan under the waters, and they that dwell with them.
الْهَاوِيَةُ مَكْشُوفَةٌ أَمَامَ اللهِ وَالْهَلاكُ لَا سِتْرَ لَهُ. (Sheol h7585) ٦ 6
Hell is naked before him, and there is no covering for destruction. (Sheol h7585)
يَمُدُّ الشِّمَالَ عَلَى الْخَوَاءِ وَيُعَلِّقُ الأَرْضَ عَلَى لَا شَيْءٍ. ٧ 7
He stretched out the north over the empty space, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
يَصُرُّ الْمِيَاهَ فِي سُحُبِهِ فَلا يَتَخَرَّقُ الْغَيْمُ تَحْتَهَا. ٨ 8
He bindeth up the waters in his clouds, so that they break not out and fall down together.
يَحْجُبُ وَجْهَ عَرْشِهِ وَيَبْسُطُ فَوْقَهُ غُيُومَهُ. ٩ 9
He withholdeth the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud over it.
رَسَمَ حَدّاً عَلَى وَجْهِ الْمِيَاهِ عِنْدَ خَطِّ اتِّصَالِ النُّورِ بِالظُّلْمَةِ. ١٠ 10
He hath set bounds about the waters, till light and darkness come to an end.
مِنْ زَجْرِهِ تَرْتَعِشُ أَعْمِدَةُ السَّمَاءِ وَتَرْتَعِدُ مِنْ تَقْرِيعِهِ. ١١ 11
The pillars of heaven tremble, and dread at his beck.
بِقُوَّتِهِ يُهَدِّئُ هَيَجَانَ الْبَحْرِ وَبِحِكْمَتِهِ يَسْحَقُ رَهَبَ. ١٢ 12
By his power the seas are suddenly gathered together, and his wisdom has struck the proud one.
بِنَسْمَتِهِ جَمَّلَ السَّمَاوَاتِ، وَيَدَاهُ اخْتَرَقَتَا الْحَيَّةَ الْهَارِبَةَ. ١٣ 13
His spirit hath adorned the heavens, and his obstetric hand brought forth the winding serpent.
وَهَذِهِ لَيْسَتْ سِوَى أَدْنَى طُرُقِهِ، وَمَا أَخْفَتَ هَمْسَ كَلامِهِ الَّذِي نَسْمَعُهُ؛ فَمَنْ يُدْرِكُ إِذاً رَعْدَ جَبَرُوتِهِ؟» ١٤ 14
Lo, these things are said in part of his ways: and seeing we have heard scarce a little drop of his word, who shall be able to behold the thunder of his greatness?
