Job 2
1 Again it came to pass on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, that Satan came also among them to present himself before Jehovah.
| وَكَانَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ أَنَّهُ جَاءَ بَنُو ٱللهِ لِيَمْثُلُوا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَجَاءَ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ أَيْضًا فِي وَسْطِهِمْ لِيَمْثُلَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١ |
2 And Jehovah said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتَ؟» فَأَجَابَ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالَ: «مِنَ ٱلْجَوَلَانِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَمِنَ ٱلتَّمَشِّي فِيهَا». | ٢ |
3 And Jehovah said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and turneth away from evil: and he still holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ: «هَلْ جَعَلْتَ قَلْبَكَ عَلَى عَبْدِي أَيُّوبَ؟ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِثْلُهُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. رَجُلٌ كَامِلٌ وَمُسْتَقِيمٌ يَتَّقِي ٱللهَ وَيَحِيدُ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ. وَإِلَى ٱلْآنَ هُوَ مُتَمَسِّكٌ بِكَمَالِهِ، وَقَدْ هَيَّجْتَنِي عَلَيْهِ لِأَبْتَلِعَهُ بِلَا سَبَبٍ». | ٣ |
4 And Satan answered Jehovah, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.
| فَأَجَابَ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالَ: «جِلْدٌ بِجِلْدٍ، وَكُلُّ مَا لِلْإِنْسَانِ يُعْطِيهِ لِأَجْلِ نَفْسِهِ. | ٤ |
5 But put forth thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will renounce thee to thy face.
| وَلَكِنْ ٱبْسِطِ ٱلْآنَ يَدَكَ وَمَسَّ عَظْمَهُ وَلَحْمَهُ، فَإِنَّهُ فِي وَجْهِكَ يُجَدِّفُ عَلَيْكَ». | ٥ |
6 And Jehovah said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thy hand; only spare his life.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ: «هَا هُوَ فِي يَدِكَ، وَلَكِنِ ٱحْفَظْ نَفْسَهُ». | ٦ |
7 So Satan went forth from the presence of Jehovah, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.
| فَخَرَجَ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ مِنْ حَضْرَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَضَرَبَ أَيُّوبَ بِقُرْحٍ رَدِيءٍ مِنْ بَاطِنِ قَدَمِهِ إِلَى هَامَتِهِ. | ٧ |
8 And he took him a potsherd to scrape himself therewith; and he sat among the ashes.
| فَأَخَذَ لِنَفْسِهِ شَقَفَةً لِيَحْتَكَّ بِهَا وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلرَّمَادِ. | ٨ |
9 Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still hold fast thine integrity? renounce God, and die.
| فَقَالَتْ لَهُ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ: «أَنْتَ مُتَمَسِّكٌ بَعْدُ بِكَمَالِكَ؟ بَارِكِ ٱللهَ وَمُتْ!». | ٩ |
10 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا: «تَتَكَلَّمِينَ كَلَامًا كَإِحْدَى ٱلْجَاهِلَاتِ! أَٱلْخَيْرَ نَقْبَلُ مِنْ عِنْدِ ٱللهِ، وَٱلشَّرَّ لَا نَقْبَلُ؟». فِي كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يُخْطِئْ أَيُّوبُ بِشَفَتَيْهِ. | ١٠ |
11 Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite; and they made an appointment together to come to bemoan him and to comfort him.
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَصْحَابُ أَيُّوبَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ بِكُلِّ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي أَتَى عَلَيْهِ، جَاءُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ مَكَانِهِ: أَلِيفَازُ ٱلتَّيْمَانِيُّ وَبِلْدَدُ ٱلشُّوحِيُّ وَصُوفَرُ ٱلنَّعْمَاتِيُّ، وَتَوَاعَدُوا أَنْ يَأْتُوا لِيَرْثُوا لَهُ وَيُعَزُّوهُ. | ١١ |
12 And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his robe, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.
| وَرَفَعُوا أَعْيُنَهُمْ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ وَلَمْ يَعْرِفُوهُ، فَرَفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَهُمْ وَبَكَوْا، وَمَزَّقَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ جُبَّتَهُ، وَذَرَّوْا تُرَابًا فَوْقَ رُؤُوسِهِمْ نَحْوَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، | ١٢ |
13 So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great.
| وَقَعَدُوا مَعَهُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَسَبْعَ لَيَالٍ، وَلَمْ يُكَلِّمْهُ أَحَدٌ بِكَلِمَةٍ، لِأَنَّهُمْ رَأَوْا أَنَّ كَآبَتَهُ كَانَتْ عَظِيمَةً جِدًّا. | ١٣ |
