Job 37
1 At this my heart trembleth, and is moved out of its place.
καὶ ταύτης ἐταράχθη ἡ καρδία μου καὶ ἀπερρύη ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτῆς
2 Hear ye attentively the terror of his voice, and the sound that cometh out of his mouth.
ἄκουε ἀκοὴν ἐν ὀργῇ θυμοῦ κυρίου καὶ μελέτη ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται
3 He beholdeth under all the heavens, and his light is upon the ends of the earth.
ὑποκάτω παντὸς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἀρχὴ αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸ φῶς αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πτερύγων τῆς γῆς
4 After it a noise shall roar, he shall thunder with the voice of his majesty, and shall not be found out, when his voice shall be heard.
ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ βοήσεται φωνή βροντήσει ἐν φωνῇ ὕβρεως αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἀνταλλάξει αὐτούς ὅτι ἀκούσει φωνὴν αὐτοῦ
5 God shall thunder wonderfully with his voice, he that doth great and unsearchable things.
βροντήσει ὁ ἰσχυρὸς ἐν φωνῇ αὐτοῦ θαυμάσια ἐποίησεν γὰρ μεγάλα ἃ οὐκ ᾔδειμεν
6 He commandeth the snow to go down upon the earth, and the winter rain, and the shower of his strength.
συντάσσων χιόνι γίνου ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ χειμὼν ὑετός καὶ χειμὼν ὑετῶν δυναστείας αὐτοῦ
7 He sealeth up the hand of all men, that every one may know his works.
ἐν χειρὶ παντὸς ἀνθρώπου κατασφραγίζει ἵνα γνῷ πᾶς ἄνθρωπος τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ἀσθένειαν
8 Then the beast shall go into his covert, and shall abide in his den.
εἰσῆλθεν δὲ θηρία ὑπὸ σκέπην ἡσύχασαν δὲ ἐπὶ κοίτης
9 Out of the inner parts shall a tempest come, and cold out of the north.
ἐκ ταμιείων ἐπέρχονται δῖναι ἀπὸ δὲ ἀκρωτηρίων ψῦχος
10 When God bloweth there cometh frost, and again the waters are poured out abundantly.
καὶ ἀπὸ πνοῆς ἰσχυροῦ δώσει πάγος οἰακίζει δὲ τὸ ὕδωρ ὡς ἐὰν βούληται
11 Corn desireth clouds, and the clouds spread their light:
καὶ ἐκλεκτὸν καταπλάσσει νεφέλη διασκορπιεῖ νέφος φῶς αὐτοῦ
12 Which go round about, whithersoever the will of him that governeth them shall lead them, to whatsoever he shall command them upon the face of the whole earth:
καὶ αὐτὸς κυκλώματα διαστρέψει ἐν θεεβουλαθω εἰς ἔργα αὐτῶν πάντα ὅσα ἂν ἐντείληται αὐτοῖς ταῦτα συντέτακται παρ’ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς
13 Whether in one tribe, or in his own land, or in what place soever of his mercy he shall command them to be found.
ἐὰν εἰς παιδείαν ἐὰν εἰς τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ ἐὰν εἰς ἔλεος εὑρήσει αὐτόν
14 Hearken to these things, Job: Stand, and consider the wondrous works of God.
ἐνωτίζου ταῦτα Ιωβ στῆθι νουθετοῦ δύναμιν κυρίου
15 Dost thou know when God commanded the rains, to shew his light of his clouds?
οἴδαμεν ὅτι ὁ θεὸς ἔθετο ἔργα αὐτοῦ φῶς ποιήσας ἐκ σκότους
16 Knowest thou the great paths of the clouds, and the perfect knowledges?
ἐπίσταται δὲ διάκρισιν νεφῶν ἐξαίσια δὲ πτώματα πονηρῶν
17 Are not thy garments hot, when the south wind blows upon the earth?
σοῦ δὲ ἡ στολὴ θερμή ἡσυχάζεται δὲ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς
18 Thou perhaps hast made the heavens with him, which are most strong, as if they were of molten brass.
στερεώσεις μετ’ αὐτοῦ εἰς παλαιώματα ἰσχυραὶ ὡς ὅρασις ἐπιχύσεως
19 Shew us what we may say to him: for we are wrapped up in darkness.
διὰ τί δίδαξόν με τί ἐροῦμεν αὐτῷ καὶ παυσώμεθα πολλὰ λέγοντες
20 Who shall tell him the things I speak? even if a man shall speak, he shall be swallowed up.
μὴ βίβλος ἢ γραμματεύς μοι παρέστηκεν ἵνα ἄνθρωπον ἑστηκὼς κατασιωπήσω
21 But now they see not the light: the air on a sudden shall be thickened into clouds, and the wind shall pass and drive them away.
πᾶσιν δ’ οὐχ ὁρατὸν τὸ φῶς τηλαυγές ἐστιν ἐν τοῖς παλαιώμασιν ὥσπερ τὸ παρ’ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ νεφῶν
22 Cold cometh out of the north, and to God praise with fear.
ἀπὸ βορρᾶ νέφη χρυσαυγοῦντα ἐπὶ τούτοις μεγάλη ἡ δόξα καὶ τιμὴ παντοκράτορος
23 We cannot find him worthily: he is great in strength, and in judgment, and in justice, and he is ineffable.
καὶ οὐχ εὑρίσκομεν ἄλλον ὅμοιον τῇ ἰσχύι αὐτοῦ ὁ τὰ δίκαια κρίνων οὐκ οἴει ἐπακούειν αὐτόν
24 Therefore men shall fear him, and all that seem to themselves to be wise, shall not dare to behold him.
διὸ φοβηθήσονται αὐτὸν οἱ ἄνθρωποι φοβηθήσονται δὲ αὐτὸν καὶ οἱ σοφοὶ καρδίᾳ
