Job 1
1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job. That man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God, and turned away from evil.
Человек некий бяше во стране Авситидийстей, емуже имя Иов, и бе человек он истинен, непорочен, праведен богочестив, удаляяся от всякия лукавыя вещи.
2 There were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
Быша же ему сынове седмь и дщери три.
3 His possessions also were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children 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 His sons went and held a feast in the house of each one on his birthday; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to 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 It was so, when the days of their feasting had run their course, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, “It may be that my sons have sinned, and renounced God in their hearts.” Job did so 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 Now on the day when God’s sons came to present themselves before the LORD, Satan also came among them.
И бысть яко день сей, и се, приидоша Ангели Божии предстати пред Господем, и диавол прииде с ними.
7 The LORD said to Satan, “Where have you come from?” Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, “From going back and forth in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.”
И рече Господь диаволу: откуду пришел еси? И отвещав диавол Господеви, рече: обшед землю и прошед поднебесную, се, есмь.
8 The LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is no one like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from 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 Satan answered the LORD, and said, “Does Job fear God for nothing?
Отвеща же диавол и рече пред Господем:
10 Haven’t you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in 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 stretch out your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face.”
но посли руку Твою и коснися всех, яже имать, аще не в лице Тя благословит,
12 The LORD said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your power. Only on himself don’t stretch out your hand.” So Satan 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 It fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house,
И бысть яко день сей, сынове иовлевы и дщери его пияху вино в дому брата своего старейшаго.
14 that a messenger came to Job, and said, “The oxen were plowing, and the donkeys feeding beside them,
И се, вестник прииде ко Иову и рече ему: супрузи волов оряху, и ослицы пасяхуся близ их:
15 and the Sabeans attacked, and took them away. Yes, they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you.”
и пришедше пленителие плениша их и отроки избиша мечем, и спасохся аз един и приидох возвестити тебе.
16 While he was still speaking, another also came and said, “The fire of God has fallen from the sky, and has burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them, and I alone have escaped 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 still speaking, another also came and said, “The Kasdim made three bands, and swept down on the camels, and have taken them away, yes, and killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped 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 was still speaking, there came also another, and said, “Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother’s house,
Еще сему глаголющу, ин вестник прииде, глаголя Иову: сыном твоим и дщерем твоим ядущым и пиющым у брата своего старейшаго,
19 and behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young men, and they are dead. I alone have escaped 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 Then Job arose, and tore his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down on the ground, and worshiped.
Тако (услышав) Иов, востав растерза ризы своя и остриже власы главы своея, (и посыпа перстию главу свою, ) и пад на землю, поклонися (Господеви)
21 He said, “Naked I came out of my mother’s womb, and naked will I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the LORD’s name.”
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 this, Job didn’t sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing.
Во всех сих приключившихся ему ничтоже согреши Иов пред Господем, (ниже устнама своима, ) и не даде безумия Богу.
