Job 16
1 Job replied [to Eliphaz and the others: ]
Eyüp şöyle yanıtladı:
2 “I have heard things like that before; all of you, [instead of helping me, ] are only causing me to feel more miserable.
“Buna benzer çok şey duydum, Oysa siz avutmuyor, sıkıntı veriyorsunuz.
3 Will your speeches, which are only hot air, never end [RHQ]? Eliphaz, what bothers/irritates you so much that you continue replying to me?
Boş sözleriniz hiç sona ermeyecek mi? Nedir derdiniz, boyuna karşılık veriyorsunuz?
4 If it were you [three and not I] who were suffering, I could say the things that you are saying; I could make great speeches [to criticize/condemn you], and I could shake my head at you [to ridicule you].
Yerimde siz olsaydınız, Ben de sizin gibi konuşabilirdim; Size karşı güzel sözler dizer, Başımı sallayabilirdim.
5 But, [unlike all of you, ] with what I said [MTY] I would encourage you and try to cause your pain to be less.
Ağzımdan çıkan sözlerle yüreklendirir, Dudaklarımdan dökülen avutucu sözlerle yatıştırırdım sizi.
6 “But now, if I talk, my pain does not decrease, and if I am silent, my pain still certainly does not [RHQ] go away.
“Konuşsam bile acım dinmez, Sussam ne değişir?
7 God has now taken away all my strength, and he has destroyed my family.
Ey Tanrı, beni tükettin, Bütün ev halkımı dağıttın.
8 He has shriveled me up, and people think that shows that I [am a sinner]. And people see that I am only skin and bones, and they think that proves that I [am guilty].
Beni sıkıp buruşturdun, bana karşı tanık oldu bu; Zayıflığım kalkmış tanıklık ediyor bana karşı.
9 Because God is very angry with me and hates me, [it is as though he is a wild animal that] [MET] has gnashed his teeth at me because he is my enemy.
Tanrı öfkeyle saldırıp parçalıyor beni, Dişlerini gıcırdatıyor bana, Düşmanım gözlerini üzerime dikiyor.
10 People gape/stare at me with their mouths open [to sneer at me]; they have struck me on the face/cheek to ridicule me, and they crowd around me to threaten me.
İnsanlar bana dudak büküyor, Aşağılayarak tokat atıyor, Birleşiyorlar bana karşı.
11 [It is as though] God has handed me over to ungodly people and turned me over to the wicked [DOU].
Tanrı haksızlara teslim ediyor beni, Kötülerin kucağına atıyor.
12 Previously, I was living peacefully, but he crushed me; [it is as though] he grabbed my neck and smashed me to pieces. [It is as though] [MET] he set me up like a target;
Ben rahat yaşıyordum, ama Tanrı paraladı beni, Boynumdan tutup yere çaldı. Beni hedef yaptı kendine.
13 people are surrounding me [and shooting arrows at me]. His arrows pierce my kidneys and cause the bile [from my liver] to spill onto the ground, and God does not pity me at all.
Okçuları beni kuşatıyor, Acımadan böbreklerimi deşiyor, Ödümü yerlere döküyor.
14 [It is as though] [MET] I am a wall that he is breaking through; he rushes at me like [SIM] a soldier [attacking his enemies].
Bedenimde gedik üstüne gedik açıyor, Dev gibi üzerime saldırıyor.
15 [“Because I am mourning, ] I wear pieces of rough cloth that I have sewed together, and I sit [here] in the dirt, very depressed/discouraged.
“Giymek için çul diktim, Gururumu ayak altına aldım.
16 My face is red because I have cried very much, and there are dark circles around my eyes.
Ağlamaktan yüzüm kızardı, Gözlerimin altı morardı.
17 [All this has happened to me] even though I have not acted violently [toward anyone], and I [always] pray sincerely/honestly [to God].
Yine de ellerim şiddetten uzak, Duam içtendir.
18 [When I die, ] I want the ground [APO] to [act as though I had been murdered and] cry out against those who killed me, and I do not want anyone to stop me while I am demanding [that God act justly toward] me.
“Ey toprak, kanımı örtme, Feryadım asla dinmesin.
19 But even now, [I know that] there is someone in heaven who will testify for me, and he will say that what I have done is right.
Daha şimdiden tanığım göklerde, Beni savunan yücelerdedir.
20 My [three] friends scorn/ridicule me, but my eyes are full of tears [while I cry out] to God.
Dostlarım benimle eğleniyor, Gözlerim Tanrı'ya yaş döküyor;
21 I pray that [the] one [who knows what I have done] would come to plead with God for me like people plead for their friends.
Tanrı kendisiyle insan arasında İnsanoğluyla komşusu arasında hak arasın diye.
22 [I say this because] within a few years [I will die]; I will walk along the [to the grave] from which I will never return.”
“Çünkü birkaç yıl sonra, Dönüşü olmayan yolculuğa çıkacağım.
