< Job 39 >

1 “Have you known the time of The bearing of the wild goats of the rock? Do you mark the bringing forth of does?
«أَتَعْرِفُ وَقْتَ وِلَادَةِ وُعُولِ ٱلصُّخُورِ، أَوْ تُلَاحِظُ مَخَاضَ ٱلْأَيَائِلِ؟١
2 Do you number the months they fulfill? And have you known the time of their bringing forth?
أَتَحْسُبُ ٱلشُّهُورَ ٱلَّتِي تُكَمِّلُهَا، أَوْ تَعْلَمُ مِيقَاتَ وِلَادَتِهِنَّ؟٢
3 They bow down, They bring forth their young ones safely, They cast forth their pangs.
يَبْرُكْنَ وَيَضَعْنَ أَوْلَادَهُنَّ. يَدْفَعْنَ أَوْجَاعَهُنَّ.٣
4 Their young ones are safe, They grow up in the field, they have gone out, And have not returned to them.
تَبْلُغُ أَوْلَادُهُنَّ. تَرْبُو فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. تَخْرُجُ وَلَا تَعُودُ إِلَيْهِنَّ.٤
5 Who has sent forth the wild donkey free? Indeed, who opened the bands of the wild donkey?
«مَنْ سَرَّحَ ٱلْفَرَاءَ حُرًّا، وَمَنْ فَكَّ رُبُطَ حِمَارِ ٱلْوَحْشِ؟٥
6 Whose house I have made the wilderness, And his dwellings the barren land,
ٱلَّذِي جَعَلْتُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةَ بَيْتَهُ وَٱلسِّبَاخَ مَسْكَنَهُ.٦
7 He laughs at the multitude of a city, He does not hear the cries of an exactor.
يَضْحَكُ عَلَى جُمْهُورِ ٱلْقَرْيَةِ. لَا يَسْمَعُ زَجْرَ ٱلسَّائِقِ.٧
8 The range of mountains [is] his pasture, And he seeks after every green thing.
دَائِرَةُ ٱلْجِبَالِ مَرْعَاهُ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ خُضْرَةٍ يُفَتِّشُ.٨
9 Is a wild ox willing to serve you? Does he lodge by your crib?
«أَيَرْضَى ٱلثَّوْرُ ٱلْوَحْشِيُّ أَنْ يَخْدُمَكَ، أَمْ يَبِيتُ عِنْدَ مِعْلَفِكَ؟٩
10 Do you bind a wild ox in a furrow [with] his thick band? Does he harrow valleys after you?
أَتَرْبِطُ ٱلثَّوْرَ ٱلْوَحْشِيَّ بِرِبَاطِهِ فِي ٱلتَّلْمِ، أَمْ يُمَهِّدُ ٱلْأَوْدِيَةَ وَرَاءَكَ؟١٠
11 Do you trust in him because his power [is] great? And do you leave your labor to him?
أَتَثِقُ بِهِ لِأَنَّ قُوَّتَهُ عَظِيمَةٌ، أَوْ تَتْرُكُ لَهُ تَعَبَكَ؟١١
12 Do you trust in him That he brings back your seed, And gathers [it to] your threshing-floor?
أَتَأْتَمِنُهُ أَنَّهُ يَأْتِي بِزَرْعِكَ وَيُجْمَعُ إِلَى بَيْدَرِكَ؟١٢
13 [The] wing of the crying ostriches exults, but as a pinion and feather of a stork?
«جَنَاحُ ٱلنَّعَامَةِ يُرَفْرِفُ. أَفَهُوَ مَنْكِبٌ رَؤُوفٌ، أَمْ رِيشٌ؟١٣
14 For she leaves her eggs on the earth, And she warms them on the dust,
لِأَنَّهَا تَتْرُكُ بَيْضَهَا وَتُحْمِيهِ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ،١٤
15 And she forgets that a foot may press it, And a beast of the field treads it down.
وَتَنْسَى أَنَّ ٱلرِّجْلَ تَضْغَطُهُ، أَوْ حَيَوَانَ ٱلْبَرِّ يَدُوسُهُ.١٥
16 It has hardened her young ones without her, Her labor [is] in vain, without fear.
تَقْسُو عَلَى أَوْلَادِهَا كَأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ لَهَا. بَاطِلٌ تَعَبُهَا بِلَا أَسَفٍ.١٦
17 For God has caused her to forget wisdom, And He has not given a portion To her in understanding;
لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ أَنْسَاهَا ٱلْحِكْمَةَ، وَلَمْ يَقْسِمْ لَهَا فَهْمًا.١٧
18 At the time she lifts herself up on high, She laughs at the horse and his rider.
عِنْدَمَا تُحْوِذُ نَفْسَهَا إِلَى ٱلْعَلَاءِ، تَضْحَكُ عَلَى ٱلْفَرَسِ وَعَلَى رَاكِبِهِ.١٨
19 Do you give might to the horse? Do you clothe his neck [with] a mane?
«هَلْ أَنْتَ تُعْطِي ٱلْفَرَسَ قُوَّتَهُ وَتَكْسُو عُنُقَهُ عُرْفًا؟١٩
20 Do you cause him to rush as a locust? The splendor of his snorting [is] terrible.
أَتُوثِبُهُ كَجَرَادَةٍ؟ نَفْخُ مَنْخَرِهِ مُرْعِبٌ.٢٠
21 They dig in a valley, and he rejoices in power, He goes forth to meet the armor.
يَبْحَثُ فِي ٱلْوَادِي وَيَنْفِزُ بِبَأْسٍ. يَخْرُجُ لِلِقَاءِ ٱلْأَسْلِحَةِ.٢١
22 He laughs at fear, and is not frightened, And he does not turn back from the face of the sword.
يَضْحَكُ عَلَى ٱلْخَوْفِ وَلَا يَرْتَاعُ، وَلَا يَرْجِعُ عَنِ ٱلسَّيْفِ.٢٢
23 Quiver rattles against him, The flame of a spear, and a javelin.
عَلَيْهِ تَصِلُّ ٱلسِّهَامُ وَسِنَانُ ٱلرُّمْحِ وَٱلْمِزْرَاقِ.٢٣
24 He swallows the ground with trembling and rage, And does not remain steadfast Because of the sound of a horn.
فِي وَثْبِهِ وَرُجْزِهِ يَلْتَهِمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَلَا يُؤْمِنُ أَنَّهُ صَوْتُ ٱلْبُوقِ.٢٤
25 Among the horns he says, Aha, And from afar he smells battle, Roaring of princes and shouting.
عِنْدَ نَفْخِ ٱلْبُوقِ يَقُولُ: هَهْ! وَمِنْ بَعِيدٍ يَسْتَرْوِحُ ٱلْقِتَالَ صِيَاحَ ٱلْقُوَّادِ وَٱلْهُتَافَ.٢٥
26 By your understanding does a hawk fly? Does he spread his wings to the south?
«أَمِنْ فَهْمِكَ يَسْتَقِلُّ ٱلْعُقَابُ وَيَنْشُرُ جَنَاحَيْهِ نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ؟٢٦
27 At your command does an eagle go up high? Or lift up his nest?
أَوْ بِأَمْرِكَ يُحَلِّقُ ٱلنَّسْرُ وَيُعَلِّي وَكْرَهُ؟٢٧
28 He inhabits a rock, Indeed, he lodges on the tooth of a rock, and fortress.
يَسْكُنُ ٱلصَّخْرَ وَيَبِيتُ عَلَى سِنِّ ٱلصَّخْرِ وَٱلْمَعْقِلِ.٢٨
29 From there he has sought food, His eyes look attentively to a far-off place,
مِنْ هُنَاكَ يَتَحَسَّسُ قُوتَهُ. تُبْصِرُهُ عَيْنَاهُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ.٢٩
30 And his brood sucks up blood, And where the pierced [are]—there [is] he!”
فِرَاخُهُ تَحْسُو ٱلدَّمَ، وَحَيْثُمَا تَكُنِ ٱلْقَتْلَى فَهُنَاكَ هُوَ».٣٠
