Job 32
1 And these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.
| فَكَفَّ هَؤُلاءِ الرِّجَالُ عَنِ الرَّدِّ عَلَى أَيُّوبَ، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ مُقْتَنِعاً بِبَرَاءَةِ نَفْسِهِ. | ١ |
2 Then was kindled the anger of Elihu the son of Barachel, the Buzite, of the family of Ram: against Job was his anger kindled, because he justified himself rather than God;
| غَيْرَ أَنَّ غَضَبَ أَلِيهُو بْنِ بَرَخْئِيلَ الْبُوزِيِّ، مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ رَامٍ، احْتَدَمَ عَلَى أَيُّوبَ، لأَنَّهُ ظَنَّ نَفْسَهُ أَبَرَّ مِنَ اللهِ، | ٢ |
3 and against his three friends was his anger kindled, because they found no answer, and [yet] condemned Job.
| كَمَا غَضِبَ أَيْضاً عَلَى أَصْحَابِ أَيُّوبَ الثَّلاثَةِ، لأَنَّهُمْ عَجَزُوا عَنِ الرَّدِّ عَلَيْهِ، مَعَ أَنَّهُمُ اسْتَذْنَبُوهُ. | ٣ |
4 But Elihu had waited till Job had finished speaking, because they were older than he.
| وَكَانَ أَلِيهُو قَدْ لَزِمَ الصَّمْتَ حَتَّى فَرَغُوا مِنَ الْكَلامِ مَعَ أَيُّوبَ، لأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا أَكْبَرَ مِنْهُ سِنّاً. | ٤ |
5 And Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men, and his anger was kindled.
| وَلَمَّا رَأَى أَلِيهُو أَنَّ الرِّجَالَ الثَّلاثَةَ قَدْ أَخْفَقُوا فِي إِجَابَةِ أَيُّوبَ قَالَ بِغَضَبٍ مُحْتَدِمٍ: | ٥ |
6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are aged; wherefore I was timid, and feared to shew you what I know.
| «أَنَا صَغِيرُ السِّنِّ وَأَنْتُمْ شُيُوخٌ، لِذَلِكَ تَهَيَّبْتُ وَخِفْتُ أَنْ أُبْدِيَ لَكُمْ رَأْيِي، | ٦ |
7 I said, Let days speak, and multitude of years teach wisdom.
| قَائِلاً لِنَفْسِي:’لِتَتَكَلَّمِ الأَيَّامُ، وَلْتُلَقِّنْ كَثْرَةُ السِّنِينَ حِكْمَةً.‘ | ٧ |
8 But there is a spirit which is in man; and the breath of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
| وَلَكِنَّ الرُّوحَ الَّذِي فِي الإِنْسَانِ، وَنَسَمَةَ الْقَدِيرِ، تُعْطِي الإِنْسَانَ فَهْماً. | ٨ |
9 It is not the great that are wise; neither do the aged understand judgment.
| لَيْسَ الْمُسِنُّونَ وَحْدَهُمْ هُمُ الْحُكَمَاءَ، وَلا الشُّيُوخُ فَقَطْ يُدْرِكُونَ الْحَقَّ. | ٩ |
10 Therefore I say, Hearken to me; I also will shew what I know.
| لِذَلِكَ أَقُولُ: أَصْغُوا إِلَيَّ لأُحَدِّثَكُمْ بِمَا أَعْرِفُ. | ١٠ |
11 Lo, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasonings, until ye searched out what to say.
| لَقَدْ أَنْصَتُّ بِصَبْرٍ حِينَ تَكَلَّمْتُمْ، وَاسْتَمَعْتُ إِلَى حُجَجِكُمْ حِينَ بَحَثْتُمْ عَنِ الْكَلامِ، | ١١ |
12 Yea, I gave you mine attention, and behold, there was none of you that confuted Job, that answered his words;
| وَأَوْلَيْتُكُمُ انْتِبَاهِي، فَلَمْ أَجِدْ فِي كَلامِكُمْ مَا أَفْحَمَ أَيُّوبَ، أَوْ رَدَّ عَلَى أَقْوَالِهِ. | ١٢ |
13 That ye may not say, We have found out wisdom; God will make him yield, not man.
| احْتَرِسُوا لِئَلّا تَقُولُوا إِنَّنَا قَدْ أَحْرَزْنَا حِكْمَةً، فَالرَّبُّ يُفْحِمُ أَيُّوبَ لَا الإِنْسَانُ. | ١٣ |
14 Now he hath not directed [his] words against me; and I will not answer him with your speeches. ...
| إِنَّهُ لَمْ يُوَجِّهْ حَدِيثَهُ إِلَيَّ، لِذَلِكَ لَنْ أُجِيبَهُ بِمِثْلِ كَلامِكُمْ. | ١٤ |
15 They were amazed, they answered no more; words failed them.
| لَقَدْ تَحَيَّرُوا، يَا أَيُّوبُ، وَلَمْ يُجِيبُوا إِذْ أَعْيَاهُمُ النُّطْقُ، | ١٥ |
16 And I waited, for they spoke not, but stood still, and answered no more; —
| فَهَلْ أَصْمُتُ لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَتَكَلَّمُوا، وَهَلْ أَمْتَنِعُ عَنِ الرَّدِّ؟ | ١٦ |
17 I will answer, I also in my turn, I also will shew what I know:
| لا، سَأُجِيبُ أَنَا أَيْضاً وَأُبْدِي رَأْيِي، | ١٧ |
18 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
| لأَنِّي أَفِيضُ كَلاماً، وَالرُّوحُ فِي دَاخِلِي يُحَفِّزُنِي. | ١٨ |
19 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; like new flasks, it is ready to burst.
| انْظُرُوا، إِنَّ قَلْبِي فِي دَاخِلِي كَخَمْرٍ لَمْ تُفْتَحْ، وَكَزِقَاقٍ جَدِيدَةٍ تَكَادُ تَنْشَقُّ! | ١٩ |
20 I will speak, that I may find relief; I will open my lips and answer.
| فَلأَتَكَلَّمَنَّ لأُفَرِّجَ عَنْ نَفْسِي، أَفْتَحُ شَفَتَيَّ لأُجِيبَ. | ٢٠ |
21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person; neither will I give flattery to man.
| لَنْ أُحَابِيَ إِنْسَاناً أَوْ أَتَمَلَّقَ أَحَداً. | ٢١ |
22 For I know not how to flatter; my Maker would soon take me away.
| لأَنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ التَّمَلُّقَ، وَإلَّا يَقْضِي عَلَيَّ صَانِعِي سَرِيعاً. | ٢٢ |
