أيُّوب 18
| فَقَالَ بِلْدَدُ الشُّوحِيُّ: | ١ 1 |
Then Bildad the Shuhite answered,
| «مَتَى تَكُفُّ عَنْ تَرْدِيدِ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ؟ تَعَقَّلْ ثُمَّ نَتَكَلَّمُ. | ٢ 2 |
"How long will you hunt for words? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
| لِمَاذَا تَعْتَبِرُنَا كَالْبَهِيمَةِ وَحَمْقَى فِي عَيْنَيْكَ؟ | ٣ 3 |
Why are we counted as animals, which have become unclean in your sight?
| يَا مَنْ تُمَزِّقُ نَفْسَكَ إِرْباً غَيْظاً، هَلْ تُهْجَرُ الأَرْضُ مِنْ أَجْلِكَ أَمْ تَتَزَحْزَحُ الصَّخْرَةُ مِنْ مَوْضِعِهَا؟ | ٤ 4 |
You who tear yourself in your anger, shall the earth be forsaken for you? Or shall the rock be removed out of its place?
| أَجَلْ! إِنَّ نُورَ الأَشْرَارِ يَنْطَفِئُ وَلَهِيبَ نَارِهِمْ لَا يُضِيءُ. | ٥ 5 |
"Yes, the light of the wicked shall be put out, The spark of his fire shall not shine.
| يَتَحَوَّلُ النُّورُ إِلَى ظُلْمَةٍ فِي خَيْمَتِهِ، وَيَنْطَفِئُ سِرَاجُهُ عَلَيْهِ. | ٦ 6 |
The light shall be dark in his tent. His lamp above him shall be put out.
| تَقْصُرُ خَطْوَاتُهُ الْقَوِيَّةُ وَتَصْرَعُهُ تَدْبِيرَاتُهُ، | ٧ 7 |
The steps of his strength shall be shortened. His own counsel shall cast him down.
| لأَنَّ قَدَمَيْهِ تُوْقِعَانِهِ فِي الشَّرَكِ وَتَطْرَحَانِهِ فِي حُفْرَةٍ، | ٨ 8 |
For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he wanders into its mesh.
| يَقْبِضُ الْفَخُّ عَلَى عَقِبَيْهِ وَالشَّرَكُ يَشُدُّ عَلَيْهِ، | ٩ 9 |
A snare will take him by the heel. A trap will catch him.
| حِبَالَتُهُ مَطْمُورَةٌ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، وَالْمِصْيَدَةُ كَامِنَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِهِ، | ١٠ 10 |
A noose is hidden for him in the ground, a trap for him in the way.
| تُرْعِبُهُ أَهْوَالٌ مِنْ حَوْلِهِ وَتُزَاحِمُهُ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ، | ١١ 11 |
Terrors shall make him afraid on every side, and shall chase him at his heels.
| قُوَّتُهُ يَلْتَهِمُهَا الْجُوعُ النَّهِمُ، وَالْكَوَارِثُ مُتَأَهِّبَةٌ تَتَرَصَّدُ كَبْوَتَهُ. | ١٢ 12 |
His strength shall be famished. Calamity shall be ready at his side.
| يَفْتَرِسُ الدَّاءُ جِلْدَهُ وَيَلْتَهِمُ الْمَرَضُ الأَكَّالُ أَعْضَاءَهُ. | ١٣ 13 |
The members of his body shall be devoured. The firstborn of death shall devour his members.
| يُؤْخَذُ مِنْ خَيْمَتِهِ رُكْنِ اعْتِمَادِهِ، وَيُسَاقُ أَمَامَ مَلِكِ الأَهْوَالِ. | ١٤ 14 |
He shall be rooted out of his tent where he trusts. He shall be brought to the king of terrors.
| يُقِيمُ فِي خَيْمَتِهِ غَرِيبٌ وَيُذَرُّ كِبْرِيتٌ عَلَى مَرْبِضِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
There shall dwell in his tent that which is none of his. Sulfur shall be scattered on his habitation.
| تَجِفُّ أُصُولُهُ تَحْتَهُ، وَتَتَبَعْثَرُ فُرُوعُهُ مِنْ فَوْقِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
His roots shall be dried up beneath. Above shall his branch be cut off.
| يَبِيدُ ذِكْرُهُ مِنَ الأَرْضِ، وَلا يَبْقَى لَهُ اسْمٌ فِيهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
His memory shall perish from the earth. He shall have no name in the street.
| يُطْرَدُ مِنَ النُّورِ إِلَى الظُّلْمَةِ، وَيُنْفَى مِنَ الْمَسْكُونَةِ. | ١٨ 18 |
He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
| لَا يَكُونُ لَهُ نَسْلٌ، وَلا عَقِبٌ بَيْنَ شَعْبِهِ، وَلا حَيٌّ فِي أَمَاكِنِ سُكْنَاهُ. | ١٩ 19 |
He shall have neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining where he sojourned.
| يَرْتَعِبُ مِنْ مَصِيرِهِ أَهْلُ الْغَرْبِ، وَيَسْتَوْلِي الْفَزَعُ عَلَى أَبْنَاءِ الشَّرْقِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Those who come after shall be astonished at his day, as those who went before were frightened.
| حَقّاً تِلْكَ هِيَ مَسَاكِنُ الأَشْرَارِ، وَهَذَا هُوَ مَقَامُ مَنْ لَا يَعْرِفُ اللهَ!» | ٢١ 21 |
Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous. This is the place of him who doesn't know God."
