أيُّوب 18
| فَقَالَ بِلْدَدُ الشُّوحِيُّ: | ١ 1 |
Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,
| «مَتَى تَكُفُّ عَنْ تَرْدِيدِ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ؟ تَعَقَّلْ ثُمَّ نَتَكَلَّمُ. | ٢ 2 |
“When will you stop your talk? Consider, and afterwards we will speak.
| لِمَاذَا تَعْتَبِرُنَا كَالْبَهِيمَةِ وَحَمْقَى فِي عَيْنَيْكَ؟ | ٣ 3 |
Why are we regarded as beasts, stupid in your sight?
| يَا مَنْ تُمَزِّقُ نَفْسَكَ إِرْباً غَيْظاً، هَلْ تُهْجَرُ الأَرْضُ مِنْ أَجْلِكَ أَمْ تَتَزَحْزَحُ الصَّخْرَةُ مِنْ مَوْضِعِهَا؟ | ٤ 4 |
You who tear at yourself in your anger, should the earth be forsaken for you or should the rocks be removed out of their places?
| أَجَلْ! إِنَّ نُورَ الأَشْرَارِ يَنْطَفِئُ وَلَهِيبَ نَارِهِمْ لَا يُضِيءُ. | ٥ 5 |
Indeed, the light of the wicked person will be put out; the spark of his fire will not shine.
| يَتَحَوَّلُ النُّورُ إِلَى ظُلْمَةٍ فِي خَيْمَتِهِ، وَيَنْطَفِئُ سِرَاجُهُ عَلَيْهِ. | ٦ 6 |
The light will be dark in his tent; his lamp above him will be put out.
| تَقْصُرُ خَطْوَاتُهُ الْقَوِيَّةُ وَتَصْرَعُهُ تَدْبِيرَاتُهُ، | ٧ 7 |
The steps of his strength will be made short; his own plans will cast him down.
| لأَنَّ قَدَمَيْهِ تُوْقِعَانِهِ فِي الشَّرَكِ وَتَطْرَحَانِهِ فِي حُفْرَةٍ، | ٨ 8 |
For he will be thrown into a net by his own feet; he will walk into a pitfall.
| يَقْبِضُ الْفَخُّ عَلَى عَقِبَيْهِ وَالشَّرَكُ يَشُدُّ عَلَيْهِ، | ٩ 9 |
A trap will take him by the heel; a snare will lay hold on him.
| حِبَالَتُهُ مَطْمُورَةٌ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، وَالْمِصْيَدَةُ كَامِنَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِهِ، | ١٠ 10 |
A noose is hidden for him on the ground; and a trap for him in the way.
| تُرْعِبُهُ أَهْوَالٌ مِنْ حَوْلِهِ وَتُزَاحِمُهُ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ، | ١١ 11 |
Terrors will make him afraid on every side; they will chase him at his heels.
| قُوَّتُهُ يَلْتَهِمُهَا الْجُوعُ النَّهِمُ، وَالْكَوَارِثُ مُتَأَهِّبَةٌ تَتَرَصَّدُ كَبْوَتَهُ. | ١٢ 12 |
His wealth will turn into hunger, and calamity will be ready at his side.
| يَفْتَرِسُ الدَّاءُ جِلْدَهُ وَيَلْتَهِمُ الْمَرَضُ الأَكَّالُ أَعْضَاءَهُ. | ١٣ 13 |
The parts of his body will be devoured; indeed, the firstborn of death will devour his parts.
| يُؤْخَذُ مِنْ خَيْمَتِهِ رُكْنِ اعْتِمَادِهِ، وَيُسَاقُ أَمَامَ مَلِكِ الأَهْوَالِ. | ١٤ 14 |
He is torn from the safety of his tent and marched off to the king of terrors.
| يُقِيمُ فِي خَيْمَتِهِ غَرِيبٌ وَيُذَرُّ كِبْرِيتٌ عَلَى مَرْبِضِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
People not his own will live in his tent after they see that sulfur is scattered within his home.
| تَجِفُّ أُصُولُهُ تَحْتَهُ، وَتَتَبَعْثَرُ فُرُوعُهُ مِنْ فَوْقِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
His roots will be dried up beneath; above will his branch be cut off.
| يَبِيدُ ذِكْرُهُ مِنَ الأَرْضِ، وَلا يَبْقَى لَهُ اسْمٌ فِيهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
His memory will perish from the earth; he will have no name in the street.
| يُطْرَدُ مِنَ النُّورِ إِلَى الظُّلْمَةِ، وَيُنْفَى مِنَ الْمَسْكُونَةِ. | ١٨ 18 |
He will be driven from light into darkness and be chased out of this world.
| لَا يَكُونُ لَهُ نَسْلٌ، وَلا عَقِبٌ بَيْنَ شَعْبِهِ، وَلا حَيٌّ فِي أَمَاكِنِ سُكْنَاهُ. | ١٩ 19 |
He will have no son or son's son among his people, nor any remaining kinfolk where he had stayed.
| يَرْتَعِبُ مِنْ مَصِيرِهِ أَهْلُ الْغَرْبِ، وَيَسْتَوْلِي الْفَزَعُ عَلَى أَبْنَاءِ الشَّرْقِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Those who live in the west will be horrified at what happens to him one day; those who live in the east will be frightened by it.
| حَقّاً تِلْكَ هِيَ مَسَاكِنُ الأَشْرَارِ، وَهَذَا هُوَ مَقَامُ مَنْ لَا يَعْرِفُ اللهَ!» | ٢١ 21 |
Surely such are the homes of unrighteous people, the places of those who do not know God.”
