| [1]ܘܲܥ̣ܢܵܐ ܐܹܠܝܼܗܘܿ ܘܐܸܡܲܪ. |
[1]And Elihu answereth and saith: -- |
| [2]ܒܗܵܕܹܐ ܐܸܬ̣ܚܲܫܲܒ̣ܬ̇ ܒܕ݂ܝܼܢܵܐ: ܕܐܸܡܲܪܬ̇ ܐܸܙܕܲܕ̇ܩܹ̇ܬ̣ ܡ̣ܢ ܐܲܠܵܗܵܐ. |
[2]This hast thou reckoned for judgment: Thou hast said -- `My righteousness [is] more than God's?' |
| [3]ܐܸܢ ܐܸܡ̣ܪܬ̇ ܡܵܢܵܐ ܡܵܘܬܲܪ ܐܲܢ̄ܬ̇ ܥܲܠ ܢܲܦ̮ܫܵܟ݂: ܘܡܵܢܵܐ ܝܘܼܬ̣ܪܵܢܵܐ ܕܐܹܚܲܒ̣ܵܟ݂. |
[3]For thou sayest, `What doth it profit Thee! What do I profit from my sin?' |
| [4]ܐܸܢܵܐ ܐܲܬ̣ܝܼܒ̣ܵܟ݂ ܡܸܠܹ̈ܐ: ܘܐܵܦ ܠܪܵܚܡܲܝܟ ܥܲܡܵܟ݂. |
[4]I return thee words, and thy friends with thee, |
| [5]ܚܘܼܪ ܒܲܫܡܲܝܵܐ: ܘܐܸܬ̣ܒܲܩܵܐ ܒܲܥܢܵܢܹ̈ܐ ܕܪ̈ܵܡܵܢ ܡܸܢܵܟ݂. |
[5]Behold attentively the heavens -- and see, And behold the clouds, They have been higher than thou. |
| [6]ܐܸܢ ܚܵܛܹ̇ܐ ܐܲܢ̄ܬ̇: ܡܵܢܵܐ ܥܵܒܹ̇ܕ݂ ܐܲܢ̄ܬ̇ ܠܹܗ. ܘܐܸܢ ܣܵܓܹ̇ܐ ܥܵܘܼܠܵܟ݂: ܡܵܢܵܐ ܬܸܥܒܸ̇ܕ݂ ܠܹܗ. |
[6]If thou hast sinned, what dost thou against Him? And thy transgressions have been multiplied, What dost thou to Him? |
| [7]ܘܐܸܢ ܗܵܘܹ̇ܐ ܐܲܢ̄ܬ̇ ܙܲܕ̇ܝܼܩ: ܡܵܢܵܐ ܡܵܘܬܲܪ ܐܲܢ̄ܬ̇ ܠܹܗ: ܐܵܘ ܡܵܢܵܐ ܢܵܣܹ̇ܒ̣ ܡܸܢܵܟ݂. |
[7]If thou hast been righteous, What dost thou give to Him? Or what from thy hand doth He receive? |
| [8]ܠܢܲܦ̮ܫܵܟ݂ ܗ̄ܘܼ ܪܘܼܫܥܵܟ݂: ܘܲܠܢܲܦ̮ܫܵܟ݂ ܗ̄ܝܼ ܙܲܕ̇ܝܼܩܘܼܬ̣ܵܟ݂. |
[8]For a man like thyself [is] thy wickedness, And for a son of man thy righteousness. |
| [9]ܡ̣ܢ ܣܘܿܓ̣ܵܐܐ ܕܲܛܠܘܼܡܝܵܐ ܡܲܝܠܠܝܼܢ: ܘܓܵܥܹ̇ܝܢ ܡ̣ܢ ܥܵܘܼܠܵܐ ܣܲܓܝܼ̈ܐܹܐ. |
[9]Because of the multitude of oppressions They cause to cry out, They cry because of the arm of the mighty. |
| [10]ܘܠܵܐ ܐܸܡܲܪܘ ܐܲܝܟܵܘ ܐܲܠܵܗܵܐ ܕܥܲܒ̣ܕܲܝܢ: ܕܝܲܗ̄ܒ̣ ܡܲܚܫܲܒ̣ܬ̣ܵܐ ܒܠܸܠܝܵܐ. |
[10]And none said, `Where [is] God my maker? Giving songs in the night, |
| [11]ܡ̣ܢ ܩܕ݂ܵܡ ܚܲܝ̄ܘܬ̣ܵܐ ܕܐܲܪܥܵܐ: ܘܡ̣ܢ ܦܵܪܲܚܬ̣ܵܐ ܕܲܫܡܲܝܵܐ ܚܲܟ̇ܡܲܢ. |
[11]Teaching us more than the beasts of the earth, Yea, than the fowl of the heavens He maketh us wiser.' |
| [12]ܬܲܡܵܢ ܓܵܥܹ̇ܝܢ: ܘܠܵܐ ܥܵܢܹ̈ܐ ܠܗܘܿܢ. |
[12]There they cry, and He doth not answer, Because of the pride of evil doers. |
| [13]ܡܸܛܠ ܓܲܐܝܘܼܬ̣ܵܐ ܕܒ̣ܝܼܫܹ̈ܐ ܣܪܝܼܩܵܐܝܼܬ̣ ܠܵܐ ܫܵܡܲܥ ܐܲܠܵܗܵܐ. ܐܵܦܠܵܐ ܐܲܠܵܗܵܐ ܡܫܲܒܲܚ ܠܵܗ̇. |
[13]Surely vanity God doth not hear, And the Mighty doth not behold it. |
| [14]ܘܐܵܦܸܢ ܐܸܡ̣ܲܪܬ̇ ܠܵܐ ܬܫܲܒ̇ܚܝܼܘܗܝ: ܕܘܼܢ ܩܕ݂ܵܡܵܘܗܝ ܘܐܸܬ̣ܟܲܫܲܦ ܠܹܗ. |
[14]Yea, though thou sayest thou dost not behold Him, Judgment [is] before Him, and stay for Him. |
| [15]ܕܗܵܫܵܐ ܠܵܐ ܦܵܩܹ̇ܕ݂ ܪܘܼܓ̣ܙܹܗ: ܘܠܵܐ ܡܲܒ̣ܐܸܫ ܠܢܲܦ̮ܫܵܐ. |
[15]And, now, because there is not, He hath appointed His anger, And He hath not known in great extremity. |
| [16]ܘܐܝܼܘܿܒ̣ ܣܪܝܼܩܵܐܝܼܬ̣ ܦ̣ܬܲܚ ܦܘܼܡܹܗ: ܘܲܕ݂ܠܵܐ ܒܝܼܕܲܥܬ̣ܵܐ ܡܲܣܓܹ̇ܐ ܡܸܠܹ̈ܐ. |
[16]And Job [with] vanity doth open his mouth, Without knowledge words he multiplieth. |
