Job 32
1 And his three friends also ceased any longer to answer Job: for Job was righteous before them.
| فَكَفَّ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ عَنْ مُجَاوَبَةِ أَيُّوبَ لِكَوْنِهِ بَارًّا فِي عَيْنَيْ نَفْسِهِ. | ١ |
2 Then Elius the son of Barachiel, the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram, of the country of Ausis, was angered: and he was very angry with Job, because he justified himself before the Lord.
| فَحَمِيَ غَضَبُ أَلِيهُوَ بْنِ بَرَخْئِيلَ ٱلْبُوزِيِّ مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ رَامٍ. عَلَى أَيُّوبَ حَمِيَ غَضَبُهُ لأِنَّهُ حَسِبَ نَفْسَهُ أَبَرَّ مِنَ ٱللهِ. | ٢ |
3 And he was also very angry with [his] three friends, because they were not able to return answers to Job, yet set him down for an ungodly man.
| وَعَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ حَمِيَ غَضَبُهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَجِدُوا جَوَابًا وَٱسْتَذْنَبُوا أَيُّوبَ. | ٣ |
4 But Elius had forborne to give an answer to Job, because they were older than he.
| وَكَانَ أَلِيهُو قَدْ صَبَرَ عَلَى أَيُّوبَ بِٱلْكَلَامِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ أَكْثَرُ مِنْهُ أَيَّامًا. | ٤ |
5 And Elius saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men; and he was angered in his wrath.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى أَلِيهُو أَنَّهُ لَا جَوَابَ فِي أَفْوَاهِ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ حَمِيَ غَضَبُهُ. | ٥ |
6 And Elius the Buzite the son of Barachiel answered and said, I am younger in age, and ye are elder, wherefore I kept silence, fearing to declare to you my own knowledge.
| فَأَجَابَ أَلِيهُو بْنُ بَرَخْئِيلَ ٱلْبُوزِيُّ وَقَالَ: «أَنَا صَغِيرٌ فِي ٱلْأَيَّامِ وَأَنْتُمْ شُيُوخٌ، لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ خِفْتُ وَخَشِيتُ أَنْ أُبْدِيَ لَكُمْ رَأْيِيِ. | ٦ |
7 And I said, It is not time that speaks, though in many years [men] know wisdom:
| قُلْتُ: ٱلْأَيَّامُ تَتَكَلَّمُ وَكَثْرَةُ ٱلسِّنِينِ تُظْهِرُ حِكْمَةً. | ٧ |
8 but there is a spirit in mortals; and the inspiration of the Almighty is that which teaches.
| وَلَكِنَّ فِي ٱلنَّاسِ رُوحًا، وَنَسَمَةُ ٱلْقَدِيرِ تُعَقِّلُهُمْ. | ٨ |
9 The long-lived are not wise [as such]; neither do the aged know judgment.
| لَيْسَ ٱلْكَثِيرُو ٱلْأَيَّامِ حُكَمَاءَ، وَلَا ٱلشُّيُوخُ يَفْهَمُونَ ٱلْحَقَّ. | ٩ |
10 Wherefore I said, Hear me, and I will tell you what I know.
| لِذَلِكَ قُلْتُ: ٱسْمَعُونِي. أَنَا أَيْضًا أُبْدِي رَأْيِيِ. | ١٠ |
11 Hearken to my words; for I will speak in your hearing, until ye shall have tried [the matter] with words:
| هَأَنَذَا قَدْ صَبَرْتُ لِكَلَامِكُمْ. أَصْغَيْتُ إِلَى حُجَجِكُمْ حَتَّى فَحَصْتُمُ ٱلْأَقْوَالَ. | ١١ |
12 and I shall understand as far as you; and, behold, there was no one of you that answered Job his words in argument,
| فَتَأَمَّلْتُ فِيكُمْ وَإِذْ لَيْسَ مَنْ حَجَّ أَيُّوبَ، وَلَا جَوَابَ مِنْكُمْ لِكَلَامِهِ. | ١٢ |
13 lest ye should say, We have found that we have added wisdom to the Lord.
| فَلَا تَقُولُوا: قَدْ وَجَدْنَا حِكْمَةً. ٱللهُ يَغْلِبُهُ لَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ. | ١٣ |
14 And ye have commissioned a man to speak such words.
| فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يُوَجِّهْ إِلَيَّ كَلَامَهُ وَلَا أَرُدُّ عَلَيْهِ أَنَا بِكَلَامِكُمْ. | ١٤ |
15 They were afraid, they answered no longer; they gave up their speaking.
| تَحَيَّرُوا. لَمْ يُجِيبُوا بَعْدُ. ٱنْتَزَعَ عَنْهُمُ ٱلْكَلَامُ. | ١٥ |
16 I waited, (for I had not spoken, ) because they stood still, they answered not.
| فَٱنْتَظَرْتُ لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَتَكَلَّمُوا. لِأَنَّهُمْ وَقَفُوا، لَمْ يُجِيبُوا بَعْدُ. | ١٦ |
17 And Elius continued, and said, I will again speak,
| فَأُجِيبُ أَنَا أَيْضًا حِصَّتِي، وَأُبْدِي أَنَا أَيْضًا رَأْيِيِ. | ١٧ |
18 for I am full of words, for the spirit of my belly destroys me.
| لِأَنِّي مَلآنٌ أَقْوَالًا. رُوحُ بَاطِنِي تُضَايِقُنِي. | ١٨ |
19 And my belly is as a skin of sweet wine, bound up [and] ready to burst; or as a brazier's labouring bellows.
| هُوَذَا بَطْنِي كَخَمْرٍ لَمْ تُفْتَحْ. كَٱلزِّقَاقِ ٱلْجَدِيدَةِ يَكَادُ يَنْشَقُّ. | ١٩ |
20 I will speak, that I may open my lips and relieve myself.
| أَتَكَلَّمُ فَأُفْرَجُ. أَفْتَحُ شَفَتَيَّ وَأُجِيبُ. | ٢٠ |
21 For truly I will not be awed because of man, nor indeed will I be confounded before a mortal.
| لَا أُحَابِيَنَّ وَجْهَ رَجُلٍ وَلَا أَمْلُثُ إِنْسَانًا. | ٢١ |
22 For I know not how to respect persons: and if otherwise, even the moths would eat me.
| لِأَنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ ٱلْمَلْثَ. لِأَنَّهُ عَنْ قَلِيلٍ يَأْخُذُنِي صَانِعِي. | ٢٢ |
