أَيُّوبَ 28
| «لِأَنَّهُ يُوجَدُ لِلْفِضَّةِ مَعْدَنٌ، وَمَوْضِعٌ لِلذَّهَبِ حَيْثُ يُمَحِّصُونَهُ. | ١ 1 |
The siluer surely hath his veyne, and ye gold his place, where they take it.
| ٱلْحَدِيدُ يُسْتَخْرَجُ مِنَ ٱلتُّرَابِ، وَٱلْحَجَرُ يَسْكُبُ نُحَاسًا. | ٢ 2 |
Yron is taken out of the dust, and brasse is molten out of the stone.
| قَدْ جَعَلَ لِلظُّلْمَةِ نَهَايَةً، وَإِلَى كُلِّ طَرَفٍ هُوَ يَفْحَصُ. حَجَرَ ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَظِلَّ ٱلْمَوْتِ. | ٣ 3 |
God putteth an end to darkenesse, and he tryeth the perfection of all things: he setteth a bond of darkenesse, and of the shadowe of death.
| حَفَرَ مَنْجَمًا بَعِيدًا عَنِ ٱلسُّكَّانِ. بِلَا مَوْطِئٍ لِلْقَدَمِ، مُتَدَلِّينَ بَعِيدِينَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ يَتَدَلْدَلُونَ. | ٤ 4 |
The flood breaketh out against the inhabitant, and the waters forgotten of the foote, being higher then man, are gone away.
| أَرْضٌ يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا ٱلْخُبْزُ، أَسْفَلُهَا يَنْقَلِبُ كَمَا بِٱلنَّارِ. | ٥ 5 |
Out of the same earth commeth bread, and vnder it, as it were fire is turned vp.
| حِجَارَتُهَا هِيَ مَوْضِعُ ٱلْيَاقُوتِ ٱلْأَزْرَقِ، وَفِيهَا تُرَابُ ٱلذَّهَبِ. | ٦ 6 |
The stones thereof are a place of saphirs, and the dust of it is golde.
| سَبِيلٌ لَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ كَاسِرٌ، وَلَمْ تُبْصِرْهُ عَيْنُ بَاشِقٍ، | ٧ 7 |
There is a path which no foule hath knowen, neyther hath the kites eye seene it.
| وَلَمْ تَدُسْهُ أَجْرَاءُ ٱلسَّبْعِ، وَلَمْ يَعْدُهُ ٱلزَّائِرُ. | ٨ 8 |
The lyons whelpes haue not walked it, nor the lyon passed thereby.
| إِلَى ٱلصَّوَّانِ يَمُدُّ يَدَهُ. يَقْلِبُ ٱلْجِبَالَ مِنْ أُصُولِهَا. | ٩ 9 |
He putteth his hand vpon the rockes, and ouerthroweth the mountaines by the rootes.
| يَنْقُرُ فِي ٱلصُّخُورِ سَرَبًا، وَعَيْنُهُ تَرَى كُلَّ ثَمِينٍ. | ١٠ 10 |
He breaketh riuers in the rockes, and his eye seeth euery precious thing.
| يَمْنَعُ رَشْحَ ٱلْأَنْهَارِ، وَأَبْرَزَ ٱلْخَفِيَّاتِ إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ. | ١١ 11 |
He bindeth the floods, that they doe not ouerflowe, and the thing that is hid, bringeth he to light.
| «أَمَّا ٱلْحِكْمَةُ فَمِنْ أَيْنَ تُوجَدُ، وَأَيْنَ هُوَ مَكَانُ ٱلْفَهْمِ؟ | ١٢ 12 |
But where is wisdome found? and where is the place of vnderstanding?
| لَا يَعْرِفُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ قِيمَتَهَا وَلَا تُوجَدُ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْأَحْيَاءِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Man knoweth not the price thereof: for it is not found in the land of the liuing.
| ٱلْغَمْرُ يَقُولُ: لَيْسَتْ هِيَ فِيَّ، وَٱلْبَحْرُ يَقُولُ: لَيْسَتْ هِيَ عِنْدِي. | ١٤ 14 |
The depth sayth, It is not in mee: the sea also sayth, It is not with me.
| لَا يُعْطَى ذَهَبٌ خَالِصٌ بَدَلَهَا، وَلَا تُوزَنُ فِضَّةٌ ثَمَنًا لَهَا. | ١٥ 15 |
Golde shall not be giuen for it, neyther shall siluer be weighed for the price thereof.
| لَا تُوزَنُ بِذَهَبِ أُوفِيرَ أَوْ بِٱلْجَزْعِ ٱلْكَرِيمِ أَوِ ٱلْيَاقُوتِ ٱلْأَزْرَقِ. | ١٦ 16 |
It shall not be valued with the wedge of golde of Ophir, nor with the precious onix, nor the saphir.
| لَا يُعَادِلُهَا ٱلذَّهَبُ وَلَا ٱلزُّجَاجُ، وَلَا تُبْدَلُ بِإِنَاءِ ذَهَبٍ إِبْرِيزٍ. | ١٧ 17 |
The golde nor the chrystall shall be equall vnto it, nor the exchange shalbe for plate of fine golde.
| لَا يُذْكَرُ ٱلْمَرْجَانُ أَوِ ٱلْبَلُّوْرُ، وَتَحْصِيلُ ٱلْحِكْمَةِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ ٱللَّآلِئِ. | ١٨ 18 |
No mention shall be made of coral, nor of the gabish: for wisedome is more precious then pearles.
| لَا يُعَادِلُهَا يَاقُوتُ كُوشَ ٱلْأَصْفَرُ، وَلَا تُوزَنُ بِٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلْخَالِصِ. | ١٩ 19 |
The Topaz of Ethiopia shall not be equall vnto it, neither shall it be valued with the wedge of pure gold.
| «فَمِنْ أَيْنَ تَأْتِي ٱلْحِكْمَةُ، وَأَيْنَ هُوَ مَكَانُ ٱلْفَهْمِ؟ | ٢٠ 20 |
Whence then commeth wisedome? and where is the place of vnderstanding,
| إِذْ أُخْفِيَتْ عَنْ عُيُونِ كُلِّ حَيٍّ، وَسُتِرَتْ عَنْ طَيْرِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all the liuing, and is hid from the foules of the heauen?
| اَلْهَلَاكُ وَٱلْمَوْتُ يَقُولَانِ: بِآذَانِنَا قَدْ سَمِعْنَا خَبَرَهَا. | ٢٢ 22 |
Destruction and death say, We haue heard the fame thereof with our eares.
| ٱللهُ يَفْهَمُ طَرِيقَهَا، وَهُوَ عَالِمٌ بِمَكَانِهَا. | ٢٣ 23 |
But God vnderstandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof.
| لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى أَقَاصِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. تَحْتَ كُلِّ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ يَرَى. | ٢٤ 24 |
For he beholdeth the endes of the world, and seeth all that is vnder heauen,
| لِيَجْعَلَ لِلرِّيحِ وَزْنًا، وَيُعَايِرَ ٱلْمِيَاهَ بِمِقْيَاسٍ. | ٢٥ 25 |
To make the weight of the windes, and to weigh the waters by measure.
| لَمَّا جَعَلَ لِلْمَطَرِ فَرِيضَةً، وَمَذْهَبًا لِلصَّوَاعِقِ، | ٢٦ 26 |
When he made a decree for the rayne, and a way for the lightening of the thunders,
| حِينَئِذٍ رَآهَا وَأَخْبَرَ بِهَا، هَيَّأَهَا وَأَيْضًا بَحَثَ عَنْهَا، | ٢٧ 27 |
Then did he see it, and counted it: he prepared it and also considered it.
| وَقَالَ لِلْإِنْسَانِ: هُوَذَا مَخَافَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ هِيَ ٱلْحِكْمَةُ، وَٱلْحَيَدَانُ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ هُوَ ٱلْفَهْمُ». | ٢٨ 28 |
And vnto man he said, Behold, the feare of the Lord is wisedome, and to depart from euil is vnderstanding.
