Job 20
1 Then Zophar the Naamathite answered, and said,
Tad Cofars no Naēmas atbildēja un sacīja:
2 Therefore my thoughts cause me to answer, even because of my haste that is in me.
Uz to manas sirds domas mani spiež atbildēt, un es nevaru valdīties.
3 I have heard the reproof which puts me to shame, and the spirit of my understanding answers me.
Es dzirdu pārmācīšanu sev par kaunu, bet mans gars savā gudrībā zinās atbildēt.
4 Know thou this of old time, since man was placed upon earth,
Vai tu nezini, ka mūžam tā bijis, kamēr Dievs cilvēkus licis virs zemes,
5 that the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the profane but for a moment?
Ka bezdievīgo lielība ilgi nepastāv, un ka blēdnieka prieks paliek tik acumirkli?
6 Though his height mounts up to the heavens, and his head reaches to the clouds,
Jebšu viņa greznība uzkāptu līdz debesīm, un viņa galva sniegtu līdz padebešiem,
7 yet he shall perish forever like his own dung. Those who have seen him shall say, Where is he?
Taču kā viņa sūds viņš mūžam zudīs; kas viņu redzējuši, tie sacīs: kur viņš ir?
8 He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found. Yea, he shall be chased away as a vision of the night.
Viņš aizskries kā sapnis, ka to nevarēs atrast, un pazudīs kā parādīšana naktī.
9 The eye which saw him shall see him no more, neither shall his place any more behold him.
Acs, kas viņu redzējusi, to vairs neredzēs, un viņa vieta to vairs neieraudzīs.
10 His sons shall seek the favor of the poor, and his hands shall give back his wealth.
Viņa bērni pielabināsies pie nabagiem, un viņa roka dos atpakaļ viņa mantu.
11 His bones are full of his youth, but it shall lie down with him in the dust.
Viņa kauli bija pilni jaunības spēka, bet apgulsies ar viņu pīšļos.
12 Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue,
Jebšu blēdība bijusi salda viņa mutei, un viņš to slēpis apakš savas mēles,
13 though he spares it, and will not let it go, but keep it still within his mouth,
Un viņš to mīlējis un nepametis, bet to paturējis savā mutē:
14 yet his food in his bowels is turned. It is the gall of asps within him.
Taču viņa barība pārvērtīsies viņa iekšās, par odžu žultīm tā būs iekš viņa.
15 He has swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again. God will cast them out of his belly.
Mantu, ko ierijis, viņš atkal izvems, un Dievs to izgrūdīs viņam no vēdera.
16 He shall suck the poison of asps. The viper's tongue shall kill him.
Odžu žultis viņš zīdīs, glodeņu dzelonis viņu nokaus.
17 He shall not look upon the rivers, the flowing streams of honey and butter.
Viņš neredzēs upes, kas ielejās tek no medus un piena.
18 That which he labored for shall he restore, and shall not swallow it down. According to the substance that he has gotten, he shall not rejoice.
Viņš gan strādās, bet to atdos un no tā nebaudīs; cik viņš arī neiemantos, prieka tam nebūs.
19 For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor. He has violently taken away a house, and he shall not build it up.
Jo viņš nospaidījis un atstājis nabagus, namus viņš laupījis, bet tos neuzcels.
20 Because he knew no quietness within him, he shall not save any of that in which he delights.
Jo viņa kuņģis nebija pildāms, viņš neizglābsies caur savu mantu.
21 There was nothing left that he did not devour, therefore his prosperity shall not endure.
Viņa rīklei nekas neizmuka, tādēļ viņa labums nepastāvēs.
22 In the fullness of his sufficiency he shall be in straits. The hand of everyone who is in misery shall come upon him.
Pašā bagātā pilnībā viņam būs bēdas, visu apbēdināto roka nāks viņam virsū.
23 When he is about to fill his belly, God will cast the fierceness of his wrath upon him, and will rain it upon him while he is eating.
Un notiks, lai viņa kuņģis top pilns, tad (Dievs) uz viņu sūtīs savas bardzības karstumu un uz viņu liks lītin līt, lai to rij.
24 He shall flee from the iron weapon, and the bow of brass shall strike him through.
Viņš bēgs no dzelzs bruņām, un vara stops viņam izšaus cauri.
25 He draws it forth, and it comes out of his body, yea, the glittering point comes out of his gall. Terrors are upon him.
Viņš izvelk un no viņa miesām nāk ārā, no viņa žultīm spīdoša dzelzs, un nāves šausmas viņu pārņem.
26 All darkness is laid up for his treasures. A fire not blown shall devour him. It shall consume that which is left in his tent.
Visāda tumsība apklās viņa krājumu, neuzpūsts uguns viņu aprīs, un nomaitās to atlikumu viņa dzīvoklī.
27 The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, and the earth shall rise up against him.
Debess viņa noziegumu darīs zināmu, un zeme celsies pret viņu.
28 The increase of his house shall depart, flowed away in the day of his wrath.
Viņa nama krājums aizies, viņam izšķīdīs Dieva dusmības dienā.
29 This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed to him by God.
Šī ir bezdievīga cilvēka daļa no Dieva, un viņa nospriesta mantība no tā stiprā Dieva.
