| [1]וַיַּֽעַן־יְהוָ֣ה אֶת־אִ֭יֹּוב [מִן כ] [הַסְּעָרָה כ] (מִ֥ן ׀ ק) (הַסְּעָרָ֗ה ק) וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ |
[1]Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said, |
| [2]מִ֤י זֶ֨ה ׀ מַחְשִׁ֖יךְ עֵצָ֥ה בְמִלִּ֗ין בְּֽלִי־דָֽעַת׃ |
[2]Who is this that darkeneth the counsel by words without knowledge? |
| [3]אֱזָר־נָ֣א כְגֶ֣בֶר חֲלָצֶ֑יךָ וְ֝אֶשְׁאָלְךָ֗ וְהֹודִיעֵֽנִי׃ |
[3]Gird up now thy loins like a man: I will demand of thee and declare thou unto me. |
| [4]אֵיפֹ֣ה הָ֭יִיתָ בְּיָסְדִי־אָ֑רֶץ הַ֝גֵּ֗ד אִם־יָדַ֥עְתָּ בִינָֽה׃ |
[4]Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if thou hast understanding, |
| [5]מִי־שָׂ֣ם מְ֭מַדֶּיהָ כִּ֣י תֵדָ֑ע אֹ֤ו מִֽי־נָטָ֖ה עָלֶ֣יהָ קָּֽו׃ |
[5]Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest, or who hath stretched the line over it: |
| [6]עַל־מָ֭ה אֲדָנֶ֣יהָ הָטְבָּ֑עוּ אֹ֥ו מִֽי־יָ֝רָ֗ה אֶ֣בֶן פִּנָּתָֽהּ׃ |
[6]Whereupon are the foundations thereof set: or who laid the corner stone thereof: |
| [7]בְּרָן־יַ֭חַד כֹּ֣וכְבֵי בֹ֑קֶר וַ֝יָּרִ֗יעוּ כָּל־בְּנֵ֥י אֱלֹהִֽים׃ |
[7]When the stars of the morning praised me together, and all the children of God rejoiced: |
| [8]וַיָּ֣סֶךְ בִּדְלָתַ֣יִם יָ֑ם בְּ֝גִיחֹ֗ו מֵרֶ֥חֶם יֵצֵֽא׃ |
[8]Or who hath shut up the sea with doors, when it issued and came forth as out of the womb: |
| [9]בְּשׂוּמִ֣י עָנָ֣ן לְבֻשֹׁ֑ו וַ֝עֲרָפֶ֗ל חֲתֻלָּתֹֽו׃ |
[9]When I made the clouds as a covering thereof, and darkness as the swaddling bands thereof: |
| [10]וָאֶשְׁבֹּ֣ר עָלָ֣יו חֻקִּ֑י וָֽ֝אָשִׂ֗ים בְּרִ֣יחַ וּדְלָתָֽיִם׃ |
[10]When I stablished my commandment upon it, and set bars and doors, |
| [11]וָאֹמַ֗ר עַד־פֹּ֣ה תָ֭בֹוא וְלֹ֣א תֹסִ֑יף וּפֹ֥א־יָ֝שִׁ֗ית בִּגְאֹ֥ון גַּלֶּֽיךָ׃ |
[11]And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no farther, and here shall it stay thy proud waves. |
| [12]הְֽ֭מִיָּמֶיךָ צִוִּ֣יתָ בֹּ֑קֶר [יִדַּעְתָּה כ] [שַׁחַר כ] (יִדַּ֖עְתָּ ק) (הַשַּׁ֣חַר ק) מְקֹמֹֽו׃ |
[12]Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days? Hast thou caused the morning to know his place, |
| [13]לֶ֭אֱחֹז בְּכַנְפֹ֣ות הָאָ֑רֶץ וְיִנָּעֲר֖וּ רְשָׁעִ֣ים מִמֶּֽנָּה׃ |
[13]That it might take hold of the corners of the earth, and that the wicked might be shaken out of it? |
| [14]תִּ֭תְהַפֵּךְ כְּחֹ֣מֶר חֹותָ֑ם וְ֝יִֽתְיַצְּב֗וּ כְּמֹ֣ו לְבֽוּשׁ׃ |
[14]It is turned as clay to fashion, and all stand up as a garment. |
| [15]וְיִמָּנַ֣ע מֵרְשָׁעִ֣ים אֹורָ֑ם וּזְרֹ֥ועַ רָ֝מָ֗ה תִּשָּׁבֵֽר׃ |
[15]And from the wicked their light shall be taken away, and the high arm shall be broken. |
| [16]הֲ֭בָאתָ עַד־נִבְכֵי־יָ֑ם וּבְחֵ֥קֶר תְּ֝הֹ֗ום הִתְהַלָּֽכְתָּ׃ |
[16]Hast thou entered into the bottoms of the sea? Or hast thou walked to seek out the depth? |
| [17]הֲנִגְל֣וּ לְ֭ךָ שַׁעֲרֵי־מָ֑וֶת וְשַׁעֲרֵ֖י צַלְמָ֣וֶת תִּרְאֶֽה׃ |
[17]Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? Or hast thou seen the gates of the shadow of death? |
| [18]הִ֭תְבֹּנַנְתָּ עַד־רַחֲבֵי־אָ֑רֶץ הַ֝גֵּ֗ד אִם־יָדַ֥עְתָּ כֻלָּֽהּ׃ |
[18]Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? Tell if thou knowest all this. |
| [19]אֵי־זֶ֣ה הַ֭דֶּרֶךְ יִשְׁכָּן־אֹ֑ור וְ֝חֹ֗שֶׁךְ אֵי־זֶ֥ה מְקֹמֹֽו׃ |
[19]Where is the way where light dwelleth? And where is the place of darkness, |
| [20]כִּ֣י תִ֭קָּחֶנּוּ אֶל־גְּבוּלֹ֑ו וְכִֽי־תָ֝בִ֗ין נְתִיבֹ֥ות בֵּיתֹֽו׃ |
[20]That thou shouldest receive it in the bounds thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof? |
| [21]יָ֭דַעְתָּ כִּי־אָ֣ז תִּוָּלֵ֑ד וּמִסְפַּ֖ר יָמֶ֣יךָ רַבִּֽים׃ |
[21]Knewest thou it, because thou wast then born, and because the number of thy days is great? |
| [22]הֲ֭בָאתָ אֶל־אֹצְרֹ֣ות שָׁ֑לֶג וְאֹצְרֹ֖ות בָּרָ֣ד תִּרְאֶֽה׃ |
[22]Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? Or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, |
| [23]אֲשֶׁר־חָשַׂ֥כְתִּי לְעֶת־צָ֑ר לְיֹ֥ום קְ֝רָ֗ב וּמִלְחָמָֽה׃ |
[23]Which I have hid against the time of trouble, against the day of war and battle? |
| [24]אֵי־זֶ֣ה הַ֭דֶּרֶךְ יֵחָ֣לֶק אֹ֑ור יָפֵ֖ץ קָדִ֣ים עֲלֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃ |
[24]By what way is the light parted, which scattereth the east wind upon the earth? |
| [25]מִֽי־פִלַּ֣ג לַשֶּׁ֣טֶף תְּעָלָ֑ה וְ֝דֶ֗רֶךְ לַחֲזִ֥יז קֹלֹֽות׃ |
[25]Who hath divided the spouts for the rain? Or the way for the lightning of the thunders, |
| [26]לְ֭הַמְטִיר עַל־אֶ֣רֶץ לֹא־אִ֑ישׁ מִ֝דְבָּ֗ר לֹא־אָדָ֥ם בֹּֽו׃ |
[26]To cause it to rain on the earth where no man is, and in the wilderness where there is no man? |
| [27]לְהַשְׂבִּ֣יעַ שֹׁ֖אָה וּמְשֹׁאָ֑ה וּ֝לְהַצְמִ֗יחַ מֹ֣צָא דֶֽשֶׁא׃ |
[27]To fulfill the wild and waste place, and to cause the bud of the herb to spring forth? |
| [28]הֲיֵשׁ־לַמָּטָ֥ר אָ֑ב אֹ֥ו מִי־הֹ֝ולִ֗יד אֶגְלֵי־טָֽל׃ |
[28]Who is the father of the rain? Or who hath begotten the drops of the dew? |
| [29]מִבֶּ֣טֶן מִ֭י יָצָ֣א הַקָּ֑רַח וּכְפֹ֥ר מַיִם מִ֣י יְלָדֹֽו׃ |
[29]Out of whose womb came the ice? Who hath engendered the frost of the heaven? |
| [30]כָּ֭אֶבֶן מַ֣יִם יִתְחַבָּ֑אוּ וּפְנֵ֥י תְ֝הֹ֗ום יִתְלַכָּֽדוּ׃ |
[30]The waters are hid as with a stone: and the face of the depth is frozen. |
| [31]הַֽ֭תְקַשֵּׁר מַעֲדַנֹּ֣ות כִּימָ֑ה אֹֽו־מֹשְׁכֹ֖ות כְּסִ֣יל תְּפַתֵּֽחַ׃ |
[31]Canst thou restrain the sweet influences of the Pleiades? Or loose the bands of Orion? |
| [32]הֲתֹצִ֣יא מַזָּרֹ֣ות בְּעִתֹּ֑ו וְ֝עַ֗יִשׁ עַל־בָּנֶ֥יהָ תַנְחֵֽם׃ |
[32]Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in their time? Canst thou also guide Arcturus with his sons? |
| [33]הֲ֭יָדַעְתָּ חֻקֹּ֣ות שָׁמָ֑יִם אִם־תָּשִׂ֖ים מִשְׁטָרֹ֣ו בָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
[33]Knowest thou the course of heaven, or canst thou set the rule thereof in the earth? |
| [34]הֲתָרִ֣ים לָעָ֣ב קֹולֶ֑ךָ וְֽשִׁפְעַת־מַ֥יִם תְּכַסֶּֽךָּ׃ |
[34]Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds that the abundance of water may cover thee? |
| [35]הַֽתְשַׁלַּ֣ח בְּרָקִ֣ים וְיֵלֵ֑כוּ וְיֹאמְר֖וּ לְךָ֣ הִנֵּֽנוּ׃ |
[35]Canst thou send the lightnings that they may walk, and say unto thee, Lo, here we are? |
| [36]מִישָׁ֭־ת בַּטֻּחֹ֣ות חָכְמָ֑ה אֹ֤ו מִֽי־נָתַ֖ן לַשֶּׂ֣כְוִי בִינָֽה׃ |
[36]Who hath put wisdom in the reins? Or who hath given the heart understanding? |
| [37]מִֽי־יְסַפֵּ֣ר שְׁחָקִ֣ים בְּחָכְמָ֑ה וְנִבְלֵ֥י מַ֗יִם מִ֣י יַשְׁכִּֽיב׃ |
[37]Who can number clouds by wisdom? Or who can cause to cease the bottles of heaven, |
| [38]בְּצֶ֣קֶת עָ֭פָר לַמּוּצָ֑ק וּרְגָבִ֥ים יְדֻבָּֽקוּ׃ |
[38]When the earth groweth into hardness, and the clots are fast together? |
| [39]הֲתָצ֣וּד לְלָבִ֣יא טָ֑רֶף וְחַיַּ֖ת כְּפִירִ֣ים תְּמַלֵּֽא׃ |
