| [1]But Job answered and said, |
[1]וַיַּ֥עַן אִיֹּ֗וב וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ |
| [2]How hast thou helped him that is without power? how savest thou the arm that hath no strength? |
[2]מֶה־עָזַ֥רְתָּ לְלֹא־כֹ֑חַ הֹ֝ושַׁ֗עְתָּ זְרֹ֣ועַ לֹא־עֹֽז׃ |
| [3]How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? and how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is? |
[3]מַה־יָּ֭עַצְתָּ לְלֹ֣א חָכְמָ֑ה וְ֝תוּשִׁיָּ֗ה לָרֹ֥ב הֹודָֽעְתָּ׃ |
| [4]To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee? |
[4]אֶת־מִ֭י הִגַּ֣דְתָּ מִלִּ֑ין וְנִשְׁמַת־מִ֝י יָצְאָ֥ה מִמֶּֽךָּ׃ |
| [5]Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof. |
[5]הָרְפָאִ֥ים יְחֹולָ֑לוּ מִתַּ֥חַת מַ֝֗יִם וְשֹׁכְנֵיהֶֽם׃ |
| [6]Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. |
[6]עָרֹ֣ום שְׁאֹ֣ול נֶגְדֹּ֑ו וְאֵ֥ין כְּ֝ס֗וּת לָֽאֲבַדֹּֽון׃ |
| [7]He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. |
[7]נֹטֶ֣ה צָפֹ֣ון עַל־תֹּ֑הוּ תֹּ֥לֶה אֶ֝֗רֶץ עַל־בְּלִי־מָֽה׃ |
| [8]He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them. |
[8]צֹרֵֽר־מַ֥יִם בְּעָבָ֑יו וְלֹא־נִבְקַ֖ע עָנָ֣ן תַּחְתָּֽם׃ |
| [9]He holdeth back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it. |
[9]מְאַחֵ֥ז פְּנֵי־כִסֵּ֑ה פַּרְשֵׁ֖ז עָלָ֣יו עֲנָנֹֽו׃ |
| [10]He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end. |
[10]חֹֽק־חָ֭ג עַל־פְּנֵי־מָ֑יִם עַד־תַּכְלִ֖ית אֹ֣ור עִם־חֹֽשֶׁךְ׃ |
| [11]The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof. |
[11]עַמּוּדֵ֣י שָׁמַ֣יִם יְרֹופָ֑פוּ וְ֝יִתְמְה֗וּ מִגַּעֲרָתֹֽו׃ |
| [12]He divideth the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through the proud. |
[12]בְּ֭כֹחֹו רָגַ֣ע הַיָּ֑ם [וּבִתוּבְנָתֹו כ] (וּ֝בִתְבוּנָתֹ֗ו ק) מָ֣חַץ רָֽהַב׃ |
| [13]By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent. |
[13]בְּ֭רוּחֹו שָׁמַ֣יִם שִׁפְרָ֑ה חֹֽלֲלָ֥ה יָ֝דֹ֗ו נָחָ֥שׁ בָּרִֽיחַ׃ |
| [14]Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand? |
[14]הֶן־אֵ֤לֶּה ׀ קְצֹ֬ות [דַּרְכֹּו כ] (דְּרָכָ֗יו ק) וּמַה־שֵּׁ֣מֶץ דָּ֭בָר נִשְׁמַע־בֹּ֑ו וְרַ֥עַם [גְּבוּרָתֹו כ] (גְּ֝בוּרֹותָ֗יו ק) מִ֣י יִתְבֹּונָֽן׃ |
