< أيُّوب 27 >
وَاسْتَطْرَدَ أَيُّوبُ يَضْرِبُ مَثَلَهُ قَائِلاً: | ١ 1 |
Moreouer Iob proceeded and continued his parable, saying,
«حَيٌّ هُوَ اللهُ الَّذِي نَزَعَ حَقِّي، وَالْقَدِيرُ الَّذِي أَمَرَّ حَيَاتِي، | ٢ 2 |
The liuing God hath taken away my iudgement: for the Almightie hath put my soule in bitternesse.
وَلَكِنْ مَادَامَتْ نَسَمَتِي فِيَّ، وَنَفْخَةُ اللهِ فِي أَنْفِي، | ٣ 3 |
Yet so long as my breath is in me, and the Spirit of God in my nostrels,
فَإِنَّ شَفَتَيَّ لَنْ تَنْطِقَا بِالسُّوءِ، وَلِسَانِي لَنْ يَتَلَفَّظَ بِالْغِشِّ. | ٤ 4 |
My lips surely shall speake no wickednesse, and my tongue shall vtter no deceite.
حَاشَا لِي أَنْ أُقِرَّ بِصَوَابِ أَقْوَالِكُمْ، وَلَنْ أَتَخَلَّى عَنْ كَمَالِي حَتَّى الْمَوْتِ. | ٥ 5 |
God forbid, that I should iustifie you: vntill I dye, I will neuer take away mine innocencie from my selfe.
أَتَشَبَّثُ بِبِرِّي وَلَنْ أَرْخِيَهُ، لأَنَّ ضَمِيرِي لَا يُؤَنِّبُنِي عَلَى يَوْمٍ مِنْ أَيَّامِي. | ٦ 6 |
I will keepe my righteousnesse, and wil not forsake it: mine heart shall not reprooue me of my dayes.
لِيَكُنْ عَدُوِّي نَظِيرَ الشِّرِّيرِ، وَمُقَاوِمِي كَالْفَاجِرِ، | ٧ 7 |
Mine enemie shall be as the wicked, and he that riseth against me, as the vnrighteous.
إِذْ مَا هُوَ رَجَاءُ الْفَاجِرِ عِنْدَمَا يَسْتَأْصِلُهُ اللهُ وَيُزْهِقُ أَنْفَاسَهُ؟ | ٨ 8 |
For what hope hath the hypocrite when he hath heaped vp riches, if God take away his soule?
هَلْ يَسْتَمِعُ اللهُ إِلَى صَرْخَتِهِ إِذَا حَلَّ بِهِ ضِيقٌ؟ | ٩ 9 |
Will God heare his cry, when trouble commeth vpon him?
هَلْ يُسَرُّ بِالْقَدِيرِ وَيَسْتَغِيثُ بِهِ فِي كُلِّ الأَزْمِنَةِ؟ | ١٠ 10 |
Will he set his delight on the Almightie? will he call vpon God at all times?
إِنِّي أُعَلِّمُكُمْ عَنْ قُوَّةِ اللهِ، وَلا أَكْتُمُ عَنْكُمْ مَا لَدَى الْقَدِيرِ. | ١١ 11 |
I will teache you what is in the hande of God, and I wil not conceale that which is with the Almightie.
فَأَنْتُمْ جَمِيعاً قَدْ عَايَنْتُمْ ذَلِكَ بِأَنْفُسِكُمْ، فَمَا بَالُكُمْ تَنْطِقُونَ بِالْبَاطِلِ قَائِلِينَ: | ١٢ 12 |
Beholde, all ye your selues haue seene it: why then doe you thus vanish in vanitie?
هَذَا هُوَ نَصِيبُ الشِّرِّيرِ عِنْدَ اللهِ وَالْمِيرَاثُ الَّذِي يَنَالُهُ الظَّالِمُ مِنَ الْقَدِيرِ. | ١٣ 13 |
This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the heritage of tyrants, which they shall receiue of the Almightie.
إِنْ تَكَاثَرَ بَنُوهُ فَلِيَكُونُوا طَعَاماً لِلسَّيْفِ، وَنَسْلُهُ لَا يَشْبَعُ خُبْزاً. | ١٤ 14 |
If his children be in great nomber, the sworde shall destroy them, and his posteritie shall not be satisfied with bread.
ذُرِّيَّتُهُ تَمُوتُ بِالْوَبَأِ، وَأَرَامِلُهُمْ لَا تَنُوحُ عَلَيْهِمْ. | ١٥ 15 |
His remnant shall be buried in death, and his widowes shall not weepe.
إِنْ جَمَعَ فِضَّتَهُ كَأَكْوَامِ التُّرَابِ، وَكَوَّمَ مَلابِسَ كَالطِّينِ، | ١٦ 16 |
Though he shoulde heape vp siluer as the dust, and prepare rayment as the clay,
فَإِنَّ مَا يُعِدُّهُ مِنْ ثِيَابٍ يَرْتَدِيهِ الصِّدِّيقُ، وَالْبَرِيءُ يُوَزِّعُ الْفِضَّةَ. | ١٧ 17 |
He may prepare it, but the iust shall put it on, and the innocent shall deuide the siluer.
يَبْنِي بَيْتَهُ كَبَيْتِ الْعَنْكَبُوتِ، أَوْ كَمَظَلَّةٍ صَنَعَهَا حَارِسُ الْكُرُومِ. | ١٨ 18 |
He buildeth his house as the moth, and as a lodge that the watchman maketh.
يَضْطَجِعُ غَنِيًّا وَيَسْتَيْقِظُ مُعْدَماً. يَفْتَحُ عَيْنَيْهِ وَإذَا بِثَرْوَتِهِ قَدْ تَلاشَتْ. | ١٩ 19 |
When the rich man sleepeth, he shall not be gathered to his fathers: they opened their eyes, and he was gone.
يَطْغَى عَلَيْهِ رُعْبٌ كَفَيَضَانٍ، وَتَخْطِفُهُ فِي اللَّيْلِ زَوْبَعَةٌ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Terrours shall take him as waters, and a tempest shall cary him away by night.
تُطَوِّحُ بِهِ الرِّيحُ الشَّرْقِيَّةُ فَيَخْتَفِي وَتَقْتَلِعُهُ مِنْ مَكَانِهِ. | ٢١ 21 |
The East winde shall take him away, and he shall depart: and it shall hurle him out of his place.
تُطْبِقُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ رَحْمَةٍ وَهُوَ هَارِبٌ مِنْ وَجْهِ عُنْفُوانِهَا. | ٢٢ 22 |
And God shall cast vpon him and not spare, though he would faine flee out of his hand.
تُصَفِّرُ الرِّيحُ عَلَيْهِ، وَتُرْعِبُهُ بِقُوَّتِهَا الْمُدَمِّرَةِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Euery man shall clap their hands at him, and hisse at him out of their place.
