Job 1
1 There was a certain man in the land of Ausis, whose name [was] Job; and than man was true, blameless, righteous, [and] godly, abstaining from everything evil.
Человек некий бяше во стране Авситидийстей, емуже имя Иов, и бе человек он истинен, непорочен, праведен богочестив, удаляяся от всякия лукавыя вещи.
2 And he had seven sons and three daughters.
Быша же ему сынове седмь и дщери три.
3 And his cattle consisted of seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred she-asses in the pastures, and a very great household, and he had a great husbandry on the earth; and that man was [most] noble of the [men] of the east.
И бяху скоти его, овец седмь тысящ, велблюдов три тысящы, супруг волов пять сот, и ослиц пасомых пять сот, и слуг много зело, и дела велия бяху ему на земли: и бе человек оный благороднейший сущих от Восток солнца.
4 And his sons visiting one another prepared a banquet every day, taking with them also their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
Сходящеся же сынове его друг ко другу, творяху пир на кийждо день, споемлюще вкупе и три сестры своя, ясти и пити с ними.
5 And when the days of the banquet were completed, Job sent and purified them, having risen up in the morning, and offered sacrifices for them, according to their number, and one calf for a sin-offering for their souls: for Job said, Lest perhaps my sons have thought evil in their minds against God. Thus, then Job did continually.
И егда скончавашеся дние пира, посылаше Иов и очищаше их, востая заутра, и приношаше о них жертвы по числу их, и телца единаго о гресе о душах их. Глаголаше бо Иов: негли когда сынове мои согрешиша и в мысли своей злая помыслиша противу Бога? Тако убо творяше Иов вся дни.
6 And it came to pass on a day, that behold, the angels of God came to stand before the Lord, and the devil came with them.
И бысть яко день сей, и се, приидоша Ангели Божии предстати пред Господем, и диавол прииде с ними.
7 And the Lord said to the devil, Whence are you come? And the devil answered the Lord, and said, I am come from compassing the earth, and walking up and down in the world.
И рече Господь диаволу: откуду пришел еси? И отвещав диавол Господеви, рече: обшед землю и прошед поднебесную, се, есмь.
8 And the Lord said to him, Hast you diligently considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a man blameless, true, godly, abstaining from everything evil?
И рече ему Господь: внял ли еси мыслию твоею на раба Моего Иова? Зане несть яко он на земли: человек непорочен, истинен, богочестив, удаляяся от всякия лукавыя вещи.
9 Then the devil answered, and said before the Lord, Does Job worship the Lord for nothing?
Отвеща же диавол и рече пред Господем:
10 Hast you not made a hedge about him, and about his household, and all his possessions round about? and have you not blessed the works of his hands, and multiplied his cattle upon the land?
еда туне Иов чтит Господа? Не Ты ли оградил еси внешняя его и внутренняя дому его, и яже вне всех сущих его окрест? Дела же руку его благословил еси и скоты его многи сотворил еси на земли:
11 But put forth your hand, and touch all that he has: verily he will bless you to [your] face.
но посли руку Твою и коснися всех, яже имать, аще не в лице Тя благословит,
12 Then the Lord said to the devil, Behold, I give into your hand all that he has, but touch not himself. So the devil went out from the presence of the Lord.
тогда рече Господь диаволу: се, вся, елика суть ему, даю в руку твою, но самого да не коснешися. И изыде диавол от Господа.
13 And it came to pass on a certain day, that Job's sons and his daughters were drinking wine in the house of their elder brother.
И бысть яко день сей, сынове иовлевы и дщери его пияху вино в дому брата своего старейшаго.
14 And, behold, there came a messenger to Job, and said to him, The yokes of oxen were plowing, and the she-asses were feeding near them;
И се, вестник прииде ко Иову и рече ему: супрузи волов оряху, и ослицы пасяхуся близ их:
15 and the spoilers came and took them for a prey, and killed the servants with the sword; and I having escaped alone am come to tell you.
и пришедше пленителие плениша их и отроки избиша мечем, и спасохся аз един и приидох возвестити тебе.
16 While he was yet speaking, there came another messenger, and said to Job, Fire has fallen from heaven, and burnt up the sheep, and devoured the shepherds like wise; and I having escaped alone am come to tell you.
Еще сему глаголющу, прииде ин вестник и рече ко Иову: огнь спаде с небесе и пожже овцы и пастыри пояде подобне, спасохся же аз един и приидох возвестити тебе.
17 While he was yet speaking, there came another messenger, and said to Job, The horsemen formed three companies against us, and surrounded the camels, and took them for a prey, and killed the servants with the sword; and I only escaped, and am come to tell you.
Еще сему глаголющу, прииде ин вестник и рече ко Иову: конницы сотвориша началства три и окружиша велблюды и плениша их и отроки избиша мечьми, спасохся же аз един и приидох возвестити тебе.
18 While he is yet speaking, another messenger comes, saying to Job, While your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking with their elder brother,
Еще сему глаголющу, ин вестник прииде, глаголя Иову: сыном твоим и дщерем твоим ядущым и пиющым у брата своего старейшаго,
19 suddenly a great wind came on from the desert, and caught the four corners of the house, and the house fell upon your children, and they are dead; and I have escaped alone, and am come to tell you.
внезапу ветр велик найде от пустыни и коснуся четырем углом храмины, и паде храмина на дети твоя, и скончашася: спасохся же аз един и приидох возвестити тебе.
20 So Job arose, and tore his garments, and shaved the hair of his head, and fell on the earth, and worshipped,
Тако (услышав) Иов, востав растерза ризы своя и остриже власы главы своея, (и посыпа перстию главу свою, ) и пад на землю, поклонися (Господеви)
21 and said, I myself came forth naked from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there; the Lord gave, the Lord has taken away: as it seemed good to the Lord, so has it come to pass; blessed be the name of the Lord.
и рече: сам наг изыдох от чрева матере моея, наг и отиду тамо: Господь даде, Господь отят: яко Господеви изволися, тако бысть: буди имя Господне благословено (во веки).
22 In all these events that befell him Job sinned not at all before the Lord, and did not impute folly to God.
Во всех сих приключившихся ему ничтоже согреши Иов пред Господем, (ниже устнама своима, ) и не даде безумия Богу.
