Job 11
1 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and sayde,
| فَأَجَابَ صُوفَرُ النَّعْمَاتِيُّ: | ١ |
2 Should not the multitude of wordes be answered? or should a great talker be iustified?
| «هَلْ يُتْرَكُ هَذَا الْكَلامُ الْمُفَرِّطُ مِنْ غَيْرِ جَوَابٍ، أَمْ يَتَبَرَّأُ الرَّجُلُ الْمِهْذَارُ؟ | ٢ |
3 Should men holde their peace at thy lyes? and when thou mockest others, shall none make thee ashamed?
| أَيُفْحِمُ لَغْوُكَ النَّاسَ، أَمْ تَهَكُّمُكَ يَحُولُ دُونَ تَسْفِيهِكَ؟ | ٣ |
4 For thou hast sayde, My doctrine is pure, and I am cleane in thine eyes.
| إِذْ تَدَّعِي قَائِلاً: مَذْهَبِي صَالِحٌ، وَأَنَا بَارٌّ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ. | ٤ |
5 But, oh that God would speake and open his lippes against thee!
| وَلَكِنْ لَيْتَ اللهَ يَتَكَلَّمُ وَيَفْتَحُ شَفَتَيْهِ لِيَرُدَّ عَلَيْكَ، | ٥ |
6 That he might shewe thee the secretes of wisedome, howe thou hast deserued double, according to right: know therefore that God hath forgotten thee for thine iniquitie.
| وَيَكْشِفَ لَكَ أَسْرَارَ حِكْمَتِهِ، فَلِلْحِكْمَةِ الصَّالِحَةِ وَجْهَانِ، فَتُدْرِكَ آنَئِذٍ أَنَّ اللهَ عَاقَبَكَ عَلَى إِثْمِكَ بِأَقَلَّ مِمَّا تَسْتَحِقُّ. | ٦ |
7 Canst thou by searching finde out God? canst thou finde out ye Almighty to his perfection?
| أَلَعَلَّكَ تُدْرِكُ أَعْمَاقَ اللهِ، أَمْ تَبْلُغُ أَقْصَى قُوَّةِ الْقَدِيرِ؟ | ٧ |
8 The heauens are hie, what canst thou doe? it is deeper then the hell, how canst thou know it? (Sheol h7585)
| هُوَ أَسْمَى مِنَ السَّمَاوَاتِ، فَمَاذَا يُمْكِنُكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ؟ وَهُوَ أَبْعَدُ غَوْراً مِنَ الْهَاوِيَةِ، فَمَاذَا تَعْلَمُ؟ (Sheol h7585) | ٨ |
9 The measure thereof is longer then the earth, and it is broader then the sea.
| هُوَ أَطْوَلُ مِنَ الأَرْضِ وَأَعْرَضُ مِنَ الْبَحْرِ. | ٩ |
10 If hee cut off and shut vp, or gather together, who can turne him backe?
| فَإِنِ اجْتَازَ وَاعْتَقَلَكَ وَحَاكَمَكَ فَمَنْ يَرُدُّهُ؟ | ١٠ |
11 For hee knoweth vaine men, and seeth iniquitie, and him that vnderstandeth nothing.
| لأَنَّهُ عَالِمٌ بِالْمُنَافِقِينَ. إِنْ رَأَى الإِثْمَ، أَفَلا يَنْظُرُ فِي أَمْرِهِ؟ | ١١ |
12 Yet vaine man would be wise, though man new borne is like a wilde asse colte.
| يُصْبِحُ الأَحْمَقُ حَكِيماً عِنْدَمَا يَلِدُ حِمَارُ الْوَحْشِ إِنْسَاناً. | ١٢ |
13 If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him:
| إِنْ هَيَّأْتَ قَلْبَكَ وَبَسَطْتَ إِلَيْهِ يَدَيْكَ، | ١٣ |
14 If iniquitie be in thine hand, put it farre away, and let no wickednesse dwell in thy Tabernacle.
| وَإِنْ نَبَذْتَ الإِثْمَ الَّذِي تَلَطَّخَتْ بِهِ كَفَّاكَ، فَلَمْ يَعُدِ الْجَوْرُ يُقِيمُ فِي خَيْمَتِكَ. | ١٤ |
15 The truely shalt thou lift vp thy face without spot, and shalt be stable, and shalt not feare.
| حِينَئِذٍ تَرْفَعُ وَجْهَكَ بِكَرَامَةٍ، وَتَكُونُ رَاسِخاً مِنْ غَيْرِ خَوْفٍ، | ١٥ |
16 But thou shalt forget thy miserie, and remember it as waters that are past.
| فَتَنْسَى مَا قَاسَيْتَ مِنْ مَشَقَّةٍ، وَلا تَذْكُرُهَا إِلّا كَمِيَاهٍ عَبَرَتْ. | ١٦ |
17 Thine age also shall appeare more cleare then the noone day: thou shalt shine and bee as the morning.
| وَتُصْبِحُ حَيَاتُكَ أَكْثَرَ إِشْرَاقاً مِنْ نُورِ الظَّهِيرَةِ، وَيَتَحَوَّلُ ظَلامُهَا إِلَى صَبَاحٍ، | ١٧ |
18 And thou shalt bee bolde, because there is hope: and thou shalt digge pittes, and shalt lye downe safely.
| وَتَطْمَئِنُّ لأَنَّ هُنَاكَ رَجَاءً، وَتَتَلَفَّتُ حَوْلَكَ وَتَرْقُدُ آمِناً. | ١٨ |
19 For when thou takest thy rest, none shall make thee afraide: yea, many shall make sute vnto thee.
| تَسْتَكِينُ إِذْ لَيْسَ مِنْ مُرَوِّعٍ، وَكَثِيرُونَ يَتَرَجَّوْنَ رِضَاكَ | ١٩ |
20 But the eyes of the wicked shall faile, and their refuge shall perish, and their hope shalbe sorow of minde.
| أَمَّا عُيُونُ الأَشْرَارِ فَيُصِيبُهَا التَّلَفُ، وَمَنَافِذُ الْهَرَبِ تَخْتَفِي مِنْ أَمَامِهِمْ، وَلا أَمَلَ لَهُمْ إِلّا فِي الْمَوْتِ». | ٢٠ |
