| [1]ܘܐܵܘܣܸܦ ܐܹܠܝܼܗܘܿ ܘܐܸܡ̣ܲܪ. |
[1]Elihu also proceeded, and said: |
| [2]ܟܲܬܲܪ ܠܝܼ ܩܲܠܝܼܠ ܘܐܹܚܵܘܹܝܟ݂. ܡܸܛܠ ܕܬ̣ܘܼܒ̣ ܐܝܼܬ̣ ܠܐܲܠܵܗܵܐ ܡܸܠܹ̈ܐ. |
[2]Suffer me a little, and I will tell thee; for there are yet words on God's behalf. |
| [3]ܐܸܫܩܘܿܠ ܝܼܕܲܥܬ̣ܝ ܡ̣ܢ ܪܘܼܚܩܵܐ. ܘܲܠܥܵܒ̣̇ܘܿܕ݂ܝ ܐܸܬܸ̇ܠ ܙܸܕ݂ܩܵܐ. |
[3]I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker. |
| [4]ܒܪܲܡ ܫܲܪܝܼܪܵܐܝܼܬ̣ ܗ̄ܘܲܝ̈ ܕܲܓܵܠܵـ̈ـܢ ܡܸܠܲܝ̈ ܘܲܕ݂ܠܵܐ ܡܘܼܡ ܗ̄ܝܼ ܝܼܕܲܥܬ̣ܝ ܥܲܡܵܟ݂. |
[4]For truly my words are not false; one that is upright in mind is with thee. |
| [5]ܗܵܐ ܐܲܠܵܗܵܐ ܥܲܫܝܼܢܵܐ. ܠܵܐ ܡܲܣܠܹܐ ܠܐܲܝܢܵܐ ܕܲܕ݂ܟ݂ܐ ܐܲܝܟ݂ ܚܲܠܒ̣ܵܐ. |
[5]Behold, God is mighty, yet He despiseth not any; He is mighty in strength of understanding. |
| [6]ܥܵܘܿܠܵܐ ܠܵܐ ܚܵܝܹ̇ܐ: ܘܕ݂ܝܼܢܵܐ ܠܒ̣ܝܼܫܹ̈ܐ ܝܵܗܹ̇ܒ̣. |
[6]He preserveth not the life of the wicked; but giveth to the poor their right. |
| [7]ܠܵܐ ܓܹܝܪ ܥܵܢܹ̇ܕ݂ ܙܲܕ̇ܝܼܩܵܐ ܡ̣ܢ ܩܕ݂ܵܡ ܥܲܝܢܵܘ̈ܗܝ. ܡܵܘܬܸ̇ܒ̣ ܡܲܠ̈ܟܹ̇ܐ ܥܲܠ ܟܘܼܪܣܝܵܐ. ܘܡܸܬ̇ܬ̇ܪܝܼܡܝܼܢ ܠܥܵܠܡܝܼܢ. |
[7]He withdraweth not His eyes from the righteous; but with kings upon the throne He setteth them for ever, and they are exalted. |
| [8]ܘܐܸܢ ܐܲܣܝܼܪܝܼܢ ܒܫܸܫ̈ܠܵܬ̣ܵܐ: ܢܵܚ̇ܬ̇ܝܼܢ ܒܲܚܒ̣ܵܠܵܐ ܠܡܸܣܟܹ̇ܢܘܼܬ̣ܵܐ. |
[8]And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction; |
| [9]ܘܲܢܚܵܘܸܐ ܐܸܢܘܿܢ ܥܒ̣ܵܕܲܝ̈ܗܘܿܢ ܘܣܲܟ݂ܠ̱ܘ̈ܬ̣ܗܘܿܢ: ܥܲܠ ܕܐܸܬ̣ܓܲܢ̄ܒܲܪܘ. |
[9]Then He declareth unto them their work, and t transgressions, that they have behaved themselves proudly. |
| [10]ܘܢܸܓ̣ܠܸܐ ܐܸܕ݂ܢ̱ܗܘܿܢ ܠܡܲܪܕ̇ܘܼܬ̣ܵܐ. ܘܢܹܐܡܲܪ ܕܲܢܬ̣ܘܼܒ̣ܘܼܢ ܡ̣ܢ ܥܵܘܼܠܵܐ. |
[10]He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity. |
| [11]ܐܸܢ ܢܸܫܡ̱ܥܘܼܢ ܘܢܸܥܒ̇ܕ݂ܘܼܢ. ܘܲܢܓܲܡܪܘܼܢ ܝܵܘ̈ܡܲܝܗܘܿܢ ܒ̈ܛܵܒ̣ܵܬ̣ܵܐ: ܘܲܫܢܲܝ̈ܗܘܿܢ ܒܒ̣ܘܼܣܵܡܵܐ. |
[11]If they hearken and serve Him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures. |
| [12]ܘܐܸܢ ܠܵܐ ܢܸܫܡ̱ܥܘܼܢ: ܒܐܲܒ̣ܕܵܢܵܐ ܢܸܐܙܠ̄ܘܼܢ. ܘܲܢܣܘܼܦܘܼܢ ܕܠܵܐ ܝܼܕܲܥܬ̣ܵܐ. |
[12]But if they hearken not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge. |
| [13]ܘܚܲܠܦܲܝ̈ ܠܸܒܵܐ ܢܣܘܼܦܘܼܢ: ܘܠܵܐ ܢܸܓ̣ܥܘܿܢ. ܒܪܘܼܓ̣ܙܵܐ ܢܸܓ̣ܥܘܿܢ ܟܲܕ݂ ܢܹܐܣܘܿܪ ܐܸܢܘܿܢ. |
[13]But they that are godless in heart lay up anger; they cry not for help when He bindeth them. |
| [14]ܘܲܬ̣ܡܘܼܬ̣ ܢܲܦ̮ܫܗܘܿܢ ܒܲܥܠܲܝܡܘܼܬ̣ܵܐ: ܘܚܲܝܲܝ̈ܗܘܿܢ ܒܟܲܦܢܵܐ. |
[14]Their soul perisheth in youth, and their life as that of the depraved. |
| [15]ܢܸܫܬܵܘܙܲܒ̣ ܡܲܟ̇ܝܼܟ݂ܵܐ ܒܡܲܟ̇ܝܼܟ݂ܘܼܬܹܗ. ܘܢܸܓ̣ܠܹܐ ܐܘܼܪܚܗܘܿܢ ܒܐܘܼܠܨܵܢܵܐ. |
[15]He delivereth the afflicted by His affliction, and openeth their ear by tribulation. |
| [16]ܘܐܵܦ ܢܫܵܘܙܒ̣ܵܟ݂ ܡ̣ܢ ܦܘܼܡܵܐ ܕܲܡܥܝܼܩܵܢܵܐ: ܘܲܪܘܵܚܬܵܐ ܚܠܵܦ ܥܵܩܬ̣ܵܐ. ܘܢܸܬ̣ܩܲܢ ܦܵܬ̣ܘܿܪܵܐ ܟܲܕ݂ ܡܠܹܐ ܕܘܼܗܵܢܵܐ. |
[16]Yea, He hath allured thee out of distress into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which is set on thy table is full of fatness; |
| [17]ܘܲܢܕ݂ܘܼܢ ܠܪ̈ܲܫܝܼܥܹܐ ܡܲܠܝܵܐܝܼܬ̣ ܠܕ݂ܝܼܢܵܐ: ܘܲܒ̣ܕ݂ܝܼܢܵܐ ܢܸܬ̇ܬܲܚܕܲܘܼܢ. |
[17]And thou art full of the judgment of the wicked; judgment and justice take hold on them. |
| [18]ܒܚܸܡܬ̣ܵܐ ܕܲܩܪܵܒ̣ܵܐ ܠܵܐ ܢܓܲܪܓ̣ܵܟ݂. ܘܠܵܐ ܢܲܣ̱ܢܩܵܟ݂ ܥܲܠ ܣܲܓ̇ܝܼܐܘܼܬ̣ ܦܘܼܪܩܵܢܵܐ. |
[18]For beware of wrath, lest thou be led away by thy sufficiency; neither let the greatness of the ransom turn thee aside. |
| [19]ܢܸܬ̣ܩܲܦ ܥܠܲܝܟ ܕܢܸܦ̱ܪܩܵܟ݂. ܘܠܵܐ ܬܥܘܼܩ ܠܵܟ݂ ܡ̣ܢ ܟܠ ܬܲܩܝܼ̈ܦܲܝ ܚܲܝܠܵܐ. |
[19]Will thy riches avail, that are without stint, or all the forces of thy strength? |
| [20]ܘܡ̣ܢ ܕܘܼܚܵܩܵܐ ܕܲܒ̣ܠܸܠܝܵܐ: ܘܢܸܬܸ̇ܠ ܥܲܡܡܹ̈ܐ ܚܠܵܦܲܝܟ: ܘܐܸܡ̈ܘܵܬ̣ܵܐ ܚܠܵܦ ܢܲܦ̮ܫܵܟ݂. |
[20]Desire not the night, when peoples are cut off in their place. |
| [21]ܐܸܙܕܲܗ̄ܪ ܕܠܵܐ ܬܸܬ̣ܦܢܹܐ ܥܲܠ ܥܵܘܼܠܵܐ. ܡܸܛܠ ܗܵܢܵܐ ܗ̄ܘܼ ܓܹܝܪ ܐܸܬ̣ܒ̇ـ̣ـܚܲܪܬ̇ ܒܡܸܣܟܹ̇ܢܘܼܬ̣ܵܐ. |
[21]Take heed, regard not iniquity; for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction. |
| [22]ܐܲܠܵܗܵܐ ܡܲܥܫܸܢ ܒܚܲܝܠܵܐ. ܡܲܢ̣ܘܼ ܐܝܼܬ̣ ܐܲܟ݂ܘܵܬܹܗ ܕܡܲܠܸܦ. |
[22]Behold, God doeth loftily in His power; who is a teacher like Him? |
| [23]ܡܲܢ̣ܘܼ ܦ̣ܩܲܕ݂ ܥܲܠ ܐܘܼܪ̈ܚܵܬܹܗ. ܘܡܲܢ̣ܘܼ ܐܸܡ̣ܲܪ ܠܹܗ ܕܲܥ̣ܒܲܕ̇ܬ̇ ܥܵܘܼܠܵܐ. |
[23]Who hath enjoined Him His way? Or who hath said: 'Thou hast wrought unrighteousness'? |
| [24]ܐܸܬ̇ܕܲܟ݂ܪ ܕܣܲܓ̇ܝܼܐܝܼܢ ܐܸܢܘܿܢ ܥܒ̣ܵܕ݂ܵܘ̈ܗܝ. ܘܫܲܒ̇ܚܘܼܗܝ ܐ̄ܢܵܫܵܐ ܟܠܗܘܿܢ. |
[24]Remember that thou magnify His work, whereof men have sung. |
| [25]ܘܲܒ̣ܢܲܝ̈ܢܵܫܵܐ ܚܙ̣ܵܐܘܼܗܝ: ܘܐܲܕ݂ܝܼܩ̣ܘ ܡ̣ܢ ܪܘܼܚܩܵܐ. |
[25]All men have looked thereon; man beholdeth it afar off. |
| [26]ܗܵܐ ܐܲܠܵܗܵܐ ܬܲܩܝܼܦ ܗ̄ܘܼ: ܘܠܵܐ ܡܸܬ̣̱ܝܼܕܲܥ. ܘܲܠܡܸܡܢܵܐ ܫܢܵܘ̈ܗܝ ܠܲܝܬ̇ܣܘܿܦ. |
[26]Behold, God is great, beyond our knowledge; the number of His years is unsearchable. |
| [27]ܐܸܢ ܢܸܡܢܹܐ ܥܲܡܘܼ̈ܕܲܝ ܫܡܲܝܵܐ: ܘܢܸܨܘܿܪ ܢܘܼ̈ܛܦܲܝ ܡܸܛܪܵܐ ܒܲܠܚܘܿܕ݂ܵܘܗܝ. ܕܡܲܚܬ̣ܝܼܢ ܫܡܲܝܵܐ ܒܙܲܒ̣ܢܵܐ. |
[27]For He draweth away the drops of water, which distil rain from His vapour; |
| [28]ܘܪ̈ܵܣܵܢ ܥܢܵܢܹ̈ܐ ܥܲܠ ܒܢܲܝ̈ܢܵܫܵܐ: ܘܢܸܪ̱ܘܙܘܼܢ ܪܵܘ̱ܪܒ̣ܵܐܝܼܬ̣. |
[28]Which the skies pour down and drop upon the multitudes of men. |
| [29]ܘܡܲܢ̣ܘܼ ܢܸܬ̣ܒܲܝܲܢ: ܘܲܦ̣ܪܲܣ ܥܢܵܢܹ̈ܐ ܡ̣ܢ ܣܘܿܓ̣ܵܐܐ ܕܡܲܛܠܠܹܗ. |
[29]Yea, can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, the crashings of His pavilion? |
| [30]ܦ̣ܪܲܣ ܠܥܸܠ ܡܸܢܗܘܿܢ ܢܘܼܗܪܹܗ ܘܐܸܫܬܹ̇ܗ ܕܝܲܡܵܐ ܟܲܣܝܼ. |
[30]Behold, He spreadeth His light upon it; and He covereth the depths of the sea. |
| [31]ܡܸܛܠ ܕܲܒ̣ܗܘܿܢ ܢܕ݂ܘܼܢ ܥܲܡܡܹ̈ܐ ܘܢܸܬܸ̇ܠ ܡܹܐܟ݂ܘܼܠܬܵܐ ܠܣܲܓ̇ܝܼ̈ܐܹܐ. |
[31]For by these He judgeth the peoples; He giveth food in abundance. |
| [32]ܘܥܲܠ ܐܝܼ̈ܕܲܝܵܐ ܢܟܲܣܹܐ ܢܘܼܗܪܵܐ. ܘܢܸܦܘܿܩ ܥܠܲܝܗܘܿܢ ܕܢܸܦ̮ܓ̇ܥܘܼܢ ܒܹܗ. |
[32]He covereth His hands with the lightning, and giveth it a charge that it strike the mark. |
| [33]ܢܚܵܘܹܐ ܠܪ̈ܵܚܡܵܘܗܝ ܩܸܢܝܵܢܹܗ: ܘܐܵܦ ܠܥܵܘܿܠܹܐ. |
[33]The noise thereof telle concerning it, the cattle also concerning the storm that cometh up. |
