Job 15
1 Then Eliphaz replied to Job:
| پس الیفاز تیمانی در جواب گفت: | ۱ |
2 “If you were truly wise [RHQ], you would not have replied to us by claiming that you know a lot; what you are saying is just a lot of hot air [MET].
| «آیامرد حکیم از علم باطل جواب دهد؟ وبطن خود را از باد شرقی پر سازد؟ | ۲ |
3 You should not [RHQ] be saying things that do not benefit anyone, using words that do no one any good.
| آیا به سخن بی‌فایده محاجه نماید؟ و به کلماتی که هیچ نفع نمی بخشد؟ | ۳ |
4 [By what you say, ] you show that you do not revere God, and you are hindering people from meditating/thinking about God.
| اما تو خداترسی را ترک می‌کنی وتقوا را به حضور خدا ناقص می‌سازی. | ۴ |
5 [It is as though] your sins are telling you what to say; you talk like people who will not admit that they are wicked.
| زیرا که دهانت، معصیت تو را ظاهر می‌سازد و زبان حیله گران را اختیار می‌کنی. | ۵ |
6 Everything that you say [MTY] shows that you should be punished; so, it is not necessary for me to show that.
| دهان خودت تو راملزم می‌سازد و نه من، و لبهایت بر تو شهادت می‌دهد. | ۶ |
7 [“Tell me do you know more than everyone else because you think that] you are the first person who was ever born? [SAR, RHQ] Were you born before the hills [were created]?
| آیا شخص اول از آدمیان زاییده شده‌ای؟ و پیش از تلها به وجود آمده‌ای؟ | ۷ |
8 Were you listening when God made all his plans? [SAR, RHQ] Or do you think that you are the only person who is wise?
| آیامشورت مخفی خدا را شنیده‌ای و حکمت را برخود منحصر ساخته‌ای؟ | ۸ |
9 (What do you know that we do not know?/You do not know anything that we do not know.) [RHQ] You do not understand [RHQ] anything that is not also clear to us.
| چه می‌دانی که ما هم نمی دانیم؟ و چه می‌فهمی که نزد ما هم نیست؟ | ۹ |
10 My friends and I are also wise; we acquired [wisdom] from old gray-haired people, from people who were born before your father was born.
| نزد ما ریش سفیدان و پیران هستند که درروزها از پدر تو بزرگترند. | ۱۰ |
11 God wants to comfort you, and to speak gently/kindly to you; (is that not enough for you/do you need more than that)?
| آیا تسلی های خدابرای تو کم است و کلام ملایم با تو؟ | ۱۱ |
12 Why do you allow yourself to be (carried away/excited) by your emotions? Why are [you very angry, with the result that] your eyes flash?
| چرا دلت تو را می‌رباید؟ و چرا چشمانت را بر هم می‌زنی | ۱۲ |
13 You are angry [IDM] with God, and so you [MTY] are criticizing/denouncing him.
| که روح خود را به ضد خدا بر می‌گردانی، وچنین سخنان را از دهانت بیرون می‌آوری؟ | ۱۳ |
14 “(How can any person, [including you, ] be sinless?/No person, [including you], can be sinless.) [RHQ] (How can anyone on the earth be [completely] righteous?/No one on the earth can be [completely] righteous.) [RHQ]
| «انسان چیست که پاک باشد، و مولود زن که عادل شمرده شود؟ | ۱۴ |
15 Hey, God does not even trust his angels; he does not consider even them to be [completely] pure.
| اینک بر مقدسان خوداعتماد ندارد، و آسمانها در نظرش پاک نیست. | ۱۵ |
16 So, he certainly does not [trust] abominable/disgusting and depraved/corrupt people who do evil things [as easily] as they drink water [MET].
| پس از طریق اولی انسان مکروه و فاسد که شرارت را مثل آب می‌نوشد. | ۱۶ |
17 Job, listen to what I will tell you. I will declare to you what I know,
| من برای تو بیان می‌کنم پس مرا بشنو. و آنچه دیده‌ام حکایت می‌نمایم. | ۱۷ |
18 things that wise men have told me, truths that their ancestors did not keep hidden.
| که حکیمان آن را از پدران خودروایت کردند و مخفی نداشتند، | ۱۸ |
19 God gave this land to those ancestors, who were truly wise; no one from another country caused them to think wrongly [IDM].
| که به ایشان به تنهایی زمین داده شد، و هیچ غریبی از میان ایشان عبور نکرد، | ۱۹ |
20 It is wicked people who suffer with great pain all the time that they are alive; that is what happens to those who (oppress/act violently toward) others.
| شریر در تمامی روزهایش مبتلای درد است. و سالهای شمرده شده برای مرد ظالم مهیا است. | ۲۰ |
21 They constantly hear sounds that terrify them; while they are prospering, bandits attack them.
| صدای ترسها در گوش وی است. در وقت سلامتی تاراج کننده بر وی می‌آید. | ۲۱ |
22 Wicked people surely know that they will not escape from darkness/death, because [they are sure that someone] is waiting to kill them with a sword.
| باور نمی کند که از تاریکی خواهد برگشت وشمشیر برای او مراقب است. | ۲۲ |
23 They wander around, searching for food, saying ‘Where can I find some?’ And they know that they will soon experience disasters.
| برای نان می‌گردد و می‌گوید کجاست. و می‌داند که روزتاریکی نزد او حاضر است. | ۲۳ |
24 Because they are afraid of those things happening to them, they are afraid and worry that these things will come to them like [the army of] a king comes to attack [their enemies and cause them to suffer] [SIM].
| تنگی و ضیق او رامی ترساند، مثل پادشاه مهیای جنگ بر او غلبه می‌نماید. | ۲۴ |
25 [Those things happen to them] because they (shook their fists/dared to fight) against Almighty God, and thought that they were strong enough to defeat him.
| زیرا دست خود را به ضد خدا درازمی کند و بر قادر مطلق تکبر می‌نماید. | ۲۵ |
26 They stubbornly [IDM] rush to attack God [as though they were carrying] a strong shield [to protect themselves].
| با گردن بلند بر او تاخت می‌آورد، با گل میخهای سخت سپر خویش، | ۲۶ |
27 They are so fat [that they are unable to fight].
| چونکه روی خود را به پیه پوشانیده، و کمر خود را با شحم ملبس ساخته است. | ۲۷ |
28 They will live in cities that have been abandoned, cities which have become a heap of ruins.
| و در شهرهای ویران و خانه های غیرمسکون که نزدیک به خراب شدن است ساکن می‌شود. | ۲۸ |
29 But they will not remain rich very long; Everything that they own will be taken from them; their possessions will all disappear.
| او غنی نخواهد شد و دولتش پایدارنخواهد ماند، و املاک او در زمین زیاد نخواهد گردید. | ۲۹ |
30 They will not escape from the darkness [of death]; they will be like trees whose branches are burned by fire and whose blossoms are blown away by the wind.
| از تاریکی رها نخواهد شد، و آتش، شاخه هایش را خواهد خشکانید، و به نفخه دهان او زائل خواهد شد. | ۳۰ |
31 Since they are very foolish, with the result that they trust in things that are really worthless, then things that are worthless will be all that they get.
| به بطالت توکل ننماید وخود را فریب ندهد، والا بطالت اجرت او خواهدبود. | ۳۱ |
32 Before they are old, they will wither; they will be like [MET] branches that wither and never become green again.
| قبل از رسیدن وقتش تمام ادا خواهد شدو شاخه او سبز نخواهد ماند. | ۳۲ |
33 They will be like [SIM] vines whose grapes fall off before they are ripe, like olive trees whose blossoms fall off before they produce any fruit.
| مثل مو، غوره خود را خواهد افشاند، و مثل زیتون، شکوفه خود را خواهد ریخت، | ۳۳ |
34 Wicked/godless people will not have any descendants, and fires will completely burn up the homes of [those who built those homes using] money they received from bribes.
| زیرا که جماعت ریاکاران، بی‌کس خواهند ماند، و خیمه های رشوه خواران را آتش خواهد سوزانید. | ۳۴ |
35 They plan to cause trouble and to do evil things, and they are always preparing to deceive people.”
| به شقاوت حامله شده، معصیت را می‌زایند و شکم ایشان فریب را آماده می‌کند.» | ۳۵ |
