Job 19
1 And he answered Job and he said.
| וַיַּעַן אִיּוֹב וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ |
2 Until when? will you torment! self my and will you crush? me with words.
| עַד־אָנָה תּוֹגְיוּן נַפְשִׁי וּֽתְדַכּאוּנַנִי בְמִלִּֽים׃ |
3 This ten times you have insulted me not you have been ashamed you have ill-treated me.
| זֶה עֶשֶׂר פְּעָמִים תַּכְלִימוּנִי לֹֽא־תֵבֹשׁוּ תַּהְכְּרוּ־לִֽי׃ |
4 And even truly I have erred with me it lodges error my.
| וְאַף־אׇמְנָם שָׁגִיתִי אִתִּי תָּלִין מְשׁוּגָתִֽי׃ |
5 If truly above me you will magnify yourselves and you may argue on me disgrace my.
| אִם־אׇמְנָם עָלַי תַּגְדִּילוּ וְתוֹכִיחוּ עָלַי חֶרְפָּתִֽי׃ |
6 Know then that God he has wronged me and net his over me he has closed.
| דְּֽעוּ־אֵפוֹ כִּֽי־אֱלוֹהַּ עִוְּתָנִי וּמְצוּדוֹ עָלַי הִקִּֽיף׃ |
7 There! I cry out violence and not I am answered I cry for help and there not [is] justice.
| הֵן אֶצְעַק חָמָס וְלֹא אֵעָנֶה אֲשַׁוַּע וְאֵין מִשְׁפָּֽט׃ |
8 Way my he has walled up and not I will pass and on paths my darkness he puts.
| אׇרְחִי גָדַר וְלֹא אֶעֱבוֹר וְעַל נְתִיבוֹתַי חֹשֶׁךְ יָשִֽׂים׃ |
9 Honor my from on me he has stripped off and he has removed [the] crown of head my.
| כְּבוֹדִי מֵעָלַי הִפְשִׁיט וַיָּסַר עֲטֶרֶת רֹאשִֽׁי׃ |
10 He has torn down me all around and I have gone and he has uprooted like a tree hope my.
| יִתְּצֵנִי סָבִיב וָאֵלַךְ וַיַּסַּע כָּעֵץ תִּקְוָתִֽי׃ |
11 And he has kindled towards me anger his and he has considered me himself like foes his.
| וַיַּחַר עָלַי אַפּוֹ וַיַּחְשְׁבֵנִי לוֹ כְצָרָֽיו׃ |
12 Together - they have come troops his and they have piled up on me way their and they have encamped all around tent my.
| יַחַד ׀ יָבֹאוּ גְדוּדָיו וַיָּסֹלּוּ עָלַי דַּרְכָּם וַיַּחֲנוּ סָבִיב לְאׇהֳלִֽי׃ |
13 Brothers my from with me he has put far away and acquaintances my surely they have become estranged from me.
| אַחַי מֵעָלַי הִרְחִיק וְיֹדְעַי אַךְ־זָרוּ מִמֶּֽנִּי׃ |
14 They have ceased kindred my and acquaintances my they have forgotten me.
| חָדְלוּ קְרוֹבָי וּֽמְיֻדָּעַי שְׁכֵחֽוּנִי׃ |
15 [the] sojourners of House my and female servants my to a stranger they consider me a foreigner I have become in view their.
| גָּרֵי בֵיתִי וְאַמְהֹתַי לְזָר תַּחְשְׁבֻנִי נׇכְרִי הָיִיתִי בְעֵינֵיהֶֽם׃ |
16 To servant my I call and not he answers with mouth my I seek favor to him.
| לְעַבְדִּי קָרָאתִי וְלֹא יַעֲנֶה בְּמוֹ־פִי אֶתְחַנֶּן־לֽוֹ׃ |
17 Breath my it is loathsome to wife my and I am repulsive to [the] sons of womb my.
| רוּחִי זָרָה לְאִשְׁתִּי וְחַנֹּתִי לִבְנֵי בִטְנִֽי׃ |
18 Also young boys they reject me I arise and they spoke against me.
| גַּם־עֲוִילִים מָאֲסוּ בִי אָקוּמָה וַיְדַבְּרוּ־בִֽי׃ |
19 They abhor me all [the] men of council my and whom I love they have turned against me.
| תִּעֲבוּנִי כׇּל־מְתֵי סוֹדִי וְזֶה־אָהַבְתִּי נֶהְפְּכוּ־בִֽי׃ |
20 On skin my and on flesh my it clings bone my and I have escaped! with [the] skin of teeth my.
| בְּעוֹרִי וּבִבְשָׂרִי דָּבְקָה עַצְמִי וָאֶתְמַלְּטָה בְּעוֹר שִׁנָּֽי׃ |
21 Show favor to me show favor to me O you friends my for [the] hand of God it has touched me.
| חׇנֻּנִי חׇנֻּנִי אַתֶּם רֵעָי כִּי יַד־אֱלוֹהַּ נָגְעָה בִּֽי׃ |
22 Why? are you persecuting me like God and from flesh my not are you satisfied?
| לָמָּה תִּרְדְּפֻנִי כְמוֹ־אֵל וּמִבְּשָׂרִי לֹא תִשְׂבָּֽעוּ׃ |
23 Who? will he give then and they will be written down! words my who? will he give on the scroll so they may be inscribed.
| מִי־יִתֵּן אֵפוֹ וְיִכָּתְבוּן מִלָּי מִי־יִתֵּן בַּסֵּפֶר וְיֻחָֽקוּ׃ |
24 With a stylus of iron and lead for ever in the rock they will be engraved!
| בְּעֵט־בַּרְזֶל וְעֹפָרֶת לָעַד בַּצּוּר יֵחָצְבֽוּן׃ |
25 And I I know vindicator my he lives and last on dust he will stand.
| וַאֲנִי יָדַעְתִּי גֹּאֲלִי חָי וְאַחֲרוֹן עַל־עָפָר יָקֽוּם׃ |
26 And after skin my people have struck off this and from flesh my I will see God.
| וְאַחַר עוֹרִי נִקְּפוּ־זֹאת וּמִבְּשָׂרִי אֶחֱזֶה אֱלֽוֹהַּ׃ |
27 Whom I - I will see for myself and own eyes my they will see and not a stranger they are faint kidneys my in bosom my.
| אֲשֶׁר אֲנִי ׀ אֶחֱזֶה־לִּי וְעֵינַי רָאוּ וְלֹא־זָר כָּלוּ כִלְיֹתַי בְּחֵקִֽי׃ |
28 If you will say what? will we persecute him and [the] root of [the] matter it has been found in me.
| כִּי תֹאמְרוּ מַה־נִּרְדׇּף־לוֹ וְשֹׁרֶשׁ דָּבָר נִמְצָא־בִֽי׃ |
29 Be afraid yourselves - of [the] sword for rage [is] iniquities of [the] sword so that you may know! (that a judgment. *Q(k)*)
| גּוּרוּ לָכֶם ׀ מִפְּנֵי־חֶרֶב כִּֽי־חֵמָה עֲוֺנוֹת חָרֶב לְמַעַן תֵּדְעוּן (שדין) [שַׁדּֽוּן]׃ |
