| [1]And Job addeth to lift up his simile, and saith: -- |
[1]Moreover JobH347 continuedH3254[H8686][H5375][H8800] his parableH4912, H559and saidH8799 |
| [2]God liveth! He turned aside my judgment, And the Mighty -- He made my soul bitter. |
[2]As GodH410 livethH2416, who hath taken awayH5493[H8689] my judgmentH4941; and the AlmightyH7706, who hath vexedH4843[H8689] my soulH5315; |
| [3]For all the while my breath [is] in me, And the spirit of God in my nostrils. |
[3]All the whileH5750 my breathH5397 is in me, and the spiritH7307 of GodH433 is in my nostrilsH639; |
| [4]My lips do not speak perverseness, And my tongue doth not utter deceit. |
[4]My lipsH8193 shall not speakH1696[H8762] wickednessH5766, nor my tongueH3956 utterH1897[H8799] deceitH7423. |
| [5]Pollution to me -- if I justify you, Till I expire I turn not aside mine integrity from me. |
[5]God forbidH2486 that I should justifyH6663[H8686] you: till I dieH1478[H8799] I will not removeH5493[H8686] mine integrity from meH8538. |
| [6]On my righteousness I have laid hold, And I do not let it go, My heart doth not reproach me while I live. |
[6]My righteousnessH6666 I holdH2388[H8689] fast, and will not let it goH7503[H8686]: my heartH3824 shall not reproachH2778[H8799] me so long as I liveH3117. |
| [7]As the wicked is my enemy, And my withstander as the perverse. |
[7]Let mine enemyH341[H8802] be as the wickedH7563, and he that riseth upH6965[H8693] against me as the unrighteousH5767. |
| [8]For what [is] the hope of the profane, When He doth cut off? When God doth cast off his soul? |
[8]For what is the hopeH8615 of the hypocriteH2611, though he hath gainedH1214[H8799], when GodH433 taketh awayH7953[H8799] his soulH5315? |
| [9]His cry doth God hear, When distress cometh on him? |
[9]Will GodH410 hearH8085[H8799] his cryH6818 when troubleH6869 comethH935 upon himH8799? |
| [10]On the Mighty doth he delight himself? Call God at all times? |
[10]Will he delightH6026[H8691] himself in the AlmightyH7706? will he alwaysH6256 callH7121[H8799] upon GodH433? |
| [11]I shew you by the hand of God, That which [is] with the Mighty I hide not. |
[11]I will teachH3384[H8686] you by the handH3027 of GodH410: that which is with the AlmightyH7706 will I not concealH3582.[H8762] |
| [12]Lo, ye -- all of you -- have seen, And why [is] this -- ye are altogether vain? |
[12]Behold, all ye yourselves have seenH2372[H8804] it; why then are ye thus altogetherH1892 vainH1891?[H8799] |
| [13]This [is] the portion of wicked man with God, And the inheritance of terrible ones From the Mighty they receive. |
[13]This is the portionH2506 of a wickedH7563 manH120 with GodH410, and the heritageH5159 of oppressorsH6184, which they shall receiveH3947[H8799] of the AlmightyH7706. |
| [14]If his sons multiply -- for them [is] a sword. And his offspring [are] not satisfied [with] bread. |
[14]If his childrenH1121 be multipliedH7235[H8799], it is forH3926 the swordH2719: and his offspringH6631 shall not be satisfiedH7646[H8799] with breadH3899. |
| [15]His remnant in death are buried, And his widows do not weep. |
[15]Those that remainH8300 of him shall be buriedH6912[H8735] in deathH4194: and his widowsH490 shall not weepH1058.[H8799] |
| [16]If he heap up as dust silver, And as clay prepare clothing, |
[16]Though he heap upH6651[H8799] silverH3701 as the dustH6083, and prepareH3559[H8686] raimentH4403 as the clayH2563; |
| [17]He prepareth -- and the righteous putteth [it] on, And the silver the innocent doth apportion. |
[17]He may prepareH3559[H8686] it, but the justH6662 shall put it onH3847[H8799], and the innocentH5355 shall divideH2505[H8799] the silverH3701. |
| [18]He hath built as a moth his house, And as a booth a watchman hath made. |
[18]He buildethH1129[H8804] his houseH1004 as a mothH6211, and as a boothH5521 that the keeperH5341[H8802] makethH6213.[H8804] |
| [19]Rich he lieth down, and he is not gathered, His eyes he hath opened, and he is not. |
[19]The richH6223 man shall lie downH7901[H8799], but he shall not be gatheredH622[H8735]: he openethH6491[H8804] his eyes, and he is notH5869. |
| [20]Overtake him as waters do terrors, By night stolen him away hath a whirlwind. |
[20]TerrorsH1091 take holdH5381[H8686] on him as watersH4325, a tempestH5492 stealeth him awayH1589[H8804] in the nightH3915. |
| [21]Take him up doth an east wind, and he goeth, And it frighteneth him from his place, |
[21]The eastH6921 wind carrieth him awayH5375[H8799], and he departethH3212[H8799]: and as a storm hurlethH8175[H8762] him out of his placeH4725. |
| [22]And it casteth at him, and doth not spare, From its hand he diligently fleeth. |
[22]For God shall castH7993[H8686] upon him, and not spareH2550[H8799]: he would fainH1272[H8800] fleeH1272[H8799] out of his handH3027. |
| [23]It clappeth at him its hands, And it hisseth at him from his place. |
[23]Men shall clapH5606[H8799] their handsH3709 at him, and shall hissH8319[H8799] him out of his placeH4725. |
