Job 10
1 My soul is weary of my life, I will let go my speech against myself, I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
| قَدْ كَرِهْتُ حَيَاتِي، لِهَذَا أُطْلِقُ الْعَنَانَ لِشَكْوَايَ، وَأَتَحَدَّثُ عَنْ أَشْجَانِي فِي مَرَارَةِ نَفْسِي، | ١ |
2 I will say to God: Do not condemn me: tell me why thou judgest me so.
| قَائِلاً لِلهِ: لَا تَسْتَذْنِبْنِي. فَهِّمْنِي لِمَاذَا تُخَاصِمُنِي؟ | ٢ |
3 Doth it seem good to thee that thou shouldst calumniate me, and oppress me, the work of thy own hands, and help the counsel of the wicked?
| أَيَحْلُو لَكَ أَنْ تَظْلِمَ وَتَنْبِذَ عَمَلَ يَدِكَ، وَتُحَبِّذَ مَشُورَةَ الأَشْرَارِ؟ | ٣ |
4 Hast thou eyes of flesh: or, shalt thou see as man seeth?
| أَلَكَ عَيْنَا بَشَرٍ، أَمْ كَنَظَرِ الإِنْسَانِ تَنْظُرُ؟ | ٤ |
5 Are thy days as the days of man, and are thy years as the times of men:
| هَلْ أَيَّامُكَ مِثْلُ أَيَّامِ الإِنْسَانِ، أَمْ سِنُوكَ فِي قِصَرِ سِنِيِ الْبَشَرِ، | ٥ |
6 That thou shouldst inquire after my iniquity, and search after my sin?
| حَتَّى تَبْحَثَ عَنْ إِثْمِي وَتُنَقِّبَ عَنْ خَطَايَايَ؟ | ٦ |
7 And shouldst know that I have done no wicked thing, whereas there is no man that can deliver out of thy hand.
| فَأَنْتَ عَالِمٌ أَنِّي لَسْتُ مُذْنِباً، وَأَنَّهُ لَا مُنْقِذَ مِنْ يَدِكَ. | ٧ |
8 Thy hands have made me, and fashioned me wholly round about, and dost thou thus cast me down headlong on a sudden?
| قَدْ كَوَّنَتْنِي يَدَاكَ وَصَنَعَتَانِي بِجُمْلَتِي، وَالآنَ الْتَفَتَّ إِلَيَّ لِتَسْحَقَنِي! | ٨ |
9 Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay, and thou wilt bring me into dust again.
| اذْكُرْ أَنَّكَ جَبَلْتَنِي مِنْ طِينٍ، أَتُرْجِعُنِي بَعْدُ إِلَى التُّرَابِ؟ | ٩ |
10 Hast thou not milked me as milk, and curdled me like cheese?
| أَلَمْ تَصُبَّنِي كَاللَّبَنِ وَتُخَثِّرْنِي كَالْجُبْنِ؟ | ١٠ |
11 Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh: thou hast put me together with bones and sinews:
| كَسَوْتَنِي جِلْداً وَلَحْماً، فَنَسَجْتَنِي بِعِظَامٍ وَعَصَبٍ. | ١١ |
12 Thou hast granted me life and mercy, and thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.
| مَنَحْتَنِي حَيَاةً وَرَحْمَةً، وَحَفِظَتْ عِنَايَتُكَ رُوحِي. | ١٢ |
13 Although thou conceal these things in thy heart, yet I know that thou rememberest all things.
| كَتَمْتَ هَذِهِ الأُمُورَ فِي قَلْبِكَ، إِلّا أَنِّي عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ هَذَا قَصْدُكَ. | ١٣ |
14 If I have sinned and thou hast spared me for an hour: why dost thou not suffer me to be clean from my iniquity?
| إِنْ أَخْطَأْتُ فَأَنْتَ تُرَاقِبُنِي، وَلا تُبْرِئُنِي مِنْ إِثْمِي. | ١٤ |
15 And if I be wicked, woe unto me: and if just, I shall not lift up my head, being filled with affliction and misery.
| إِنْ أَذْنَبْتُ فَوَيْلٌ لِي. وَإِنْ كُنْتُ بَارّاً لَا أَرْفَعُ رَأْسِي، لأَنِّي مُمْتَلِئٌ هَوَاناً وَنَاظِرٌ مَذَلَّتِي، | ١٥ |
16 And for pride thou wilt take me as a lioness, and returning thou tormentest me wonderfully.
| وَإِنْ شَمَخْتُ بِرَأْسِي تَقْتَنِصُنِي كَالأَسَدِ، ثُمَّ تَعُودُ فَتَصُولُ عَلَيَّ. | ١٦ |
17 Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and multipliest thy wrath upon me, and pains war against me.
| تُجَدِّدُ شُهُودَكَ ضِدِّي، وَتُضْرِمُ غَضَبَكَ عَلَيَّ، وَتُؤَلِّبُ جُيُوشاً تَتَنَاوَبُ ضِدِّي. | ١٧ |
18 Why didst thou bring me forth out of the womb: O that I had been consumed that eye might not see me!
| لِمَاذَا أَخْرَجْتَنِي مِنَ الرَّحِمِ؟ أَلَمْ يَكُنْ خَيْراً لَوْ أَسْلَمْتُ الرُّوحَ وَلَمْ تَرَنِي عَيْنٌ؟ | ١٨ |
19 I should have been as if I had not been, carried from the womb to the grave.
| فَأَكُونُ كَأَنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ فَأُنْقَلُ مِنَ الرَّحِمِ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ. | ١٩ |
20 Shall not the fewness of my days be ended shortly? suffer me, therefore, that I may lament my sorrow a little:
| أَلَيْسَتْ أَيَّامِي قَلِيلَةً؟ كُفَّ عَنِّي لَعَلِّي أَتَمَتَّعُ بِبَعْضِ الْبَهْجَةِ، | ٢٠ |
21 Before I go, and return no more, to a land that is dark and covered with the mist of death:
| قَبْلَ أَنْ أَمْضِيَ إِلَى حَيْثُ لَا أَعُودُ، إِلَى أَرْضِ الظُّلْمَةِ وَظِلِّ الْمَوْتِ، | ٢١ |
22 A land of misery and darkness, where the shadow of death, and no order, but everlasting horror dwelleth.
| إِلَى أَرْضِ الظُّلْمَةِ الْمُتَكَاثِفَةِ وَالْفَوْضَى، حَيْثُ الإِشْرَاقُ فِيهَا كَاللَّيْلِ الْبَهِيمِ». | ٢٢ |
