< أَيُّوبَ 39 >
«أَتَعْرِفُ وَقْتَ وِلَادَةِ وُعُولِ ٱلصُّخُورِ، أَوْ تُلَاحِظُ مَخَاضَ ٱلْأَيَائِلِ؟ | ١ 1 |
Knowest thou the time when the wild goats of the rock bring forth? [or] canst thou mark when the hinds do calve?
أَتَحْسُبُ ٱلشُّهُورَ ٱلَّتِي تُكَمِّلُهَا، أَوْ تَعْلَمُ مِيقَاتَ وِلَادَتِهِنَّ؟ | ٢ 2 |
Canst thou number the months [that] they fulfill? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?
يَبْرُكْنَ وَيَضَعْنَ أَوْلَادَهُنَّ. يَدْفَعْنَ أَوْجَاعَهُنَّ. | ٣ 3 |
They bow themselves, they bring forth their young ones, they cast out their sorrows.
تَبْلُغُ أَوْلَادُهُنَّ. تَرْبُو فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. تَخْرُجُ وَلَا تَعُودُ إِلَيْهِنَّ. | ٤ 4 |
Their young ones are in good liking, they grow up with corn; they go forth, and return not to them.
«مَنْ سَرَّحَ ٱلْفَرَاءَ حُرًّا، وَمَنْ فَكَّ رُبُطَ حِمَارِ ٱلْوَحْشِ؟ | ٥ 5 |
Who hath sent out the wild ass free? or who hath loosed the bands of the wild ass?
ٱلَّذِي جَعَلْتُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةَ بَيْتَهُ وَٱلسِّبَاخَ مَسْكَنَهُ. | ٦ 6 |
Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the barren land his dwellings.
يَضْحَكُ عَلَى جُمْهُورِ ٱلْقَرْيَةِ. لَا يَسْمَعُ زَجْرَ ٱلسَّائِقِ. | ٧ 7 |
He scorneth the multitude of the city, neither regardeth he the crying of the driver.
دَائِرَةُ ٱلْجِبَالِ مَرْعَاهُ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ خُضْرَةٍ يُفَتِّشُ. | ٨ 8 |
The range of the mountains [is] his pasture, and he searcheth after every green thing.
«أَيَرْضَى ٱلثَّوْرُ ٱلْوَحْشِيُّ أَنْ يَخْدُمَكَ، أَمْ يَبِيتُ عِنْدَ مِعْلَفِكَ؟ | ٩ 9 |
Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?
أَتَرْبِطُ ٱلثَّوْرَ ٱلْوَحْشِيَّ بِرِبَاطِهِ فِي ٱلتَّلْمِ، أَمْ يُمَهِّدُ ٱلْأَوْدِيَةَ وَرَاءَكَ؟ | ١٠ 10 |
Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
أَتَثِقُ بِهِ لِأَنَّ قُوَّتَهُ عَظِيمَةٌ، أَوْ تَتْرُكُ لَهُ تَعَبَكَ؟ | ١١ 11 |
Wilt thou trust him, because his strength [is] great? or wilt thou leave thy labor to him?
أَتَأْتَمِنُهُ أَنَّهُ يَأْتِي بِزَرْعِكَ وَيُجْمَعُ إِلَى بَيْدَرِكَ؟ | ١٢ 12 |
Wilt thou believe him, that he will bring home thy seed, and gather [it into] thy barn?
«جَنَاحُ ٱلنَّعَامَةِ يُرَفْرِفُ. أَفَهُوَ مَنْكِبٌ رَؤُوفٌ، أَمْ رِيشٌ؟ | ١٣ 13 |
[Gavest thou] the goodly wings to the peacocks? or wings and feathers to the ostrich!
لِأَنَّهَا تَتْرُكُ بَيْضَهَا وَتُحْمِيهِ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ، | ١٤ 14 |
Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in the dust,
وَتَنْسَى أَنَّ ٱلرِّجْلَ تَضْغَطُهُ، أَوْ حَيَوَانَ ٱلْبَرِّ يَدُوسُهُ. | ١٥ 15 |
And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
تَقْسُو عَلَى أَوْلَادِهَا كَأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ لَهَا. بَاطِلٌ تَعَبُهَا بِلَا أَسَفٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
She is hardened against her young ones, as though [they were] not hers: her labor is in vain without fear;
لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ أَنْسَاهَا ٱلْحِكْمَةَ، وَلَمْ يَقْسِمْ لَهَا فَهْمًا. | ١٧ 17 |
Because God hath withheld wisdom from her, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
عِنْدَمَا تُحْوِذُ نَفْسَهَا إِلَى ٱلْعَلَاءِ، تَضْحَكُ عَلَى ٱلْفَرَسِ وَعَلَى رَاكِبِهِ. | ١٨ 18 |
When she lifteth herself on high, she scorneth the horse and his rider.
«هَلْ أَنْتَ تُعْطِي ٱلْفَرَسَ قُوَّتَهُ وَتَكْسُو عُنُقَهُ عُرْفًا؟ | ١٩ 19 |
Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder?
أَتُوثِبُهُ كَجَرَادَةٍ؟ نَفْخُ مَنْخَرِهِ مُرْعِبٌ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils [is] terrible.
يَبْحَثُ فِي ٱلْوَادِي وَيَنْفِزُ بِبَأْسٍ. يَخْرُجُ لِلِقَاءِ ٱلْأَسْلِحَةِ. | ٢١ 21 |
He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in [his] strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men.
يَضْحَكُ عَلَى ٱلْخَوْفِ وَلَا يَرْتَاعُ، وَلَا يَرْجِعُ عَنِ ٱلسَّيْفِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from the sword.
عَلَيْهِ تَصِلُّ ٱلسِّهَامُ وَسِنَانُ ٱلرُّمْحِ وَٱلْمِزْرَاقِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering spear and the shield.
فِي وَثْبِهِ وَرُجْزِهِ يَلْتَهِمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَلَا يُؤْمِنُ أَنَّهُ صَوْتُ ٱلْبُوقِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that [it is] the sound of the trumpet.
عِنْدَ نَفْخِ ٱلْبُوقِ يَقُولُ: هَهْ! وَمِنْ بَعِيدٍ يَسْتَرْوِحُ ٱلْقِتَالَ صِيَاحَ ٱلْقُوَّادِ وَٱلْهُتَافَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
«أَمِنْ فَهْمِكَ يَسْتَقِلُّ ٱلْعُقَابُ وَيَنْشُرُ جَنَاحَيْهِ نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ؟ | ٢٦ 26 |
Doth the hawk fly by thy wisdom, [and] stretch her wings towards the south?
أَوْ بِأَمْرِكَ يُحَلِّقُ ٱلنَّسْرُ وَيُعَلِّي وَكْرَهُ؟ | ٢٧ 27 |
Doth the eagle mount up at thy command, and make her nest on high?
يَسْكُنُ ٱلصَّخْرَ وَيَبِيتُ عَلَى سِنِّ ٱلصَّخْرِ وَٱلْمَعْقِلِ. | ٢٨ 28 |
She dwelleth and abideth on the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and the strong place.
مِنْ هُنَاكَ يَتَحَسَّسُ قُوتَهُ. تُبْصِرُهُ عَيْنَاهُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ. | ٢٩ 29 |
From thence she seeketh the prey, [and] her eyes behold afar off.
فِرَاخُهُ تَحْسُو ٱلدَّمَ، وَحَيْثُمَا تَكُنِ ٱلْقَتْلَى فَهُنَاكَ هُوَ». | ٣٠ 30 |
Her young ones also suck up blood: and where the slain [are], there [is] she.
