Job 30
1 But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I disdained to set with the dogs of my flock.
And now - they have laughed on me [people] young more than me to days whom I rejected fathers their to put with [the] dogs of flock my.
2 Yea, the strength of their hands, whereto should it profit me? men in whom ripe age is perished.
Also [the] strength of hands their why? to me on them it had perished vigor.
3 They are gaunt with want and famine; they gnaw the dry ground, in the gloom of wasteness and desolation.
In poverty and in hunger barren the [ones who] gnaw a dry region yesterday of ruin and desolation.
4 They pluck salt-wort with wormwood; and the roots of the broom are their food.
Those [who] pluck off mallow on bush[es] and [the] root of broom plants [for] food their.
5 They are driven forth from the midst of men; they cry after them as after a thief.
From [the] community they are driven away people shout on them like thief.
6 In the clefts of the valleys must they dwell, in holes of the earth and of the rocks.
On [the] slope of wadis to dwell holes of [the] ground and rocks.
7 Among the bushes they bray; under the nettles they are gathered together.
Between bushes they bray under nettle[s] they are joined together.
8 They are children of churls, yea, children of ignoble men; they were scourged out of the land.
Sons of a fool also sons of not a name they have been scourged from the land.
9 And now I am become their song, yea, I am a byword unto them.
And now taunt song their I have become and I have become for them a word.
10 They abhor me, they flee far from me, and spare not to spit in my face.
They abhor me they are distant from me and from face my not they have withheld spittle.
11 For He hath loosed my cord, and afflicted me, and they have cast off the bridle before me.
For (string my *Q(K)*) he has loosened and he has afflicted me and [the] halter from before me they have sent away.
12 Upon my right hand rise the brood; they entangle my feet, and they cast up against me their ways of destruction.
On [the] right [side] a brood they arise feet my they have sent away and they have piled up on me [the] paths of disaster their.
13 They break up my path, they further my calamity, even men that have no helper.
They have torn down pathway my to destruction my they benefit not a helper [belongs] to them.
14 As through a wide breach they come; in the midst of the ruin they roll themselves upon me.
Like a breach wide they come under devastation they have rolled themselves.
15 Terrors are turned upon me, they chase mine honour as the wind; and my welfare is passed away as a cloud.
It has been turned on me sudden terror it pursues like the wind dignity my and like a cloud it has passed away prosperity my.
16 And now my soul is poured out within me; days of affliction have taken hold upon me.
And now on me it pours itself out life my they seize me days of affliction.
17 In the night my bones are pierced, and fall from me, and my sinews take no rest.
Night bones my he has pierced from on me and gnawing [pains] my not they rest!
18 By the great force of my disease is my garment disfigured; it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat.
With greatness of strength it disguises itself clothing my like [the] mouth of tunic my he girds about me.
19 He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes.
He has thrown me to the mud and I have become like like dust and ash[es].
20 I cry unto Thee, and Thou dost not answer me; I stand up, and Thou lookest at me.
I cry for help to you and not you answer me I have stood and you have considered carefully me.
21 Thou art turned to be cruel to me; with the might of Thy hand Thou hatest me.
You change yourself into [one] cruel to me with [the] might of hand your you are hostile to me.
22 Thou liftest me up to the wind, Thou causest me to ride upon it; and Thou dissolvest my substance.
You lift up me to [the] wind you make ride me and you dissolve me (success. *Q(K)*)
23 For I know that Thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.
For I know death you will bring me and a house of appointed meeting for every living [thing].
24 Surely none shall put forth his hand to a ruinous heap, neither because of these things shall help come in one's calamity,
Surely not on a heap of ruins anyone stretches out a hand or in disaster his to them a cry for help.
25 If I have not wept for him that was in trouble, and if my soul grieved not for the needy.
Not did I weep for [the] hard of day was it grieved? self my for the needy [person].
26 Yet, when I looked for good, there came evil; and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
If good I waited for and it came evil and I waited for light and it came darkness.
27 Mine inwards boil, and rest not; days of affliction are come upon me.
Inward parts my they have been made to boil and not they have been still they have confronted me days of affliction.
28 I go mourning without the sun; I stand up in the assembly, and cry for help.
Being dark I have gone about with not sun I have stood in the assembly I cry out for help.
29 I am become a brother to jackals, and a companion to ostriches.
A brother I have become of jackals and a companion of daughters of an ostrich.
30 My skin is black, and falleth from me, and my bones are burned with heat.
Skin my it has become black from on me and bone my it has burned from heat.
31 Therefore is my harp turned to mourning, and my pipe into the voice of them that weep.
And it has become mourning harp my and flute my [the] sound of weepers.
