Job 2
1 And it was the day and they came [the] sons of God to present themselves on Yahweh and he came also the adversary in midst of them to present himself on Yahweh.
So hende det ein dag, at gudssønerne kom og stelte seg fram for Herren att, og Satan var millom deim og stelte seg fram for Herren.
2 And he said Yahweh to the adversary where? from this are you coming and he answered the adversary Yahweh and he said from roving about on the earth and from going about on it.
Og Herren spurde Satan: «Kvar kjem du ifrå?» «Eg hev fare og svive ikring på jordi, » svara Satan.
3 And he said Yahweh to the adversary ¿ have you set heart your to servant my Job for there not [is] like him on the earth a man blameless and upright fearing God and [who] turns aside from evil and still he [is] keeping hold on integrity his and you incited me against him to ruin him without cause.
Då spurde Herren honom: «Hev du gjeve ans på Job, tenaren min? For liken hans finst ikkje på jordi, slik ein ærleg og rettvis ein mann som han er, og so som han ottast Gud og held seg frå det som vondt er. Han er endå like ærleg, so du hev eggja meg upp til å tyna honom utan grunn.»
4 And he answered the adversary Yahweh and he said skin for skin and all that [belongs] to the man he will give for life his.
Då sagde Satan til Herren: «Hud for hud; ein mann gjev gjerne alt han eig når han berre bergar livet.
5 But stretch out please hand your and touch bone his and flesh his if not to face your he will bless you.
Men rett ut handi di og rør ved beini og holdet hans - han skal so visst banna deg upp i andlitet.»
6 And he said Yahweh to the adversary there he [is] in hand your surely life his preserve.
Då sagde Herren til Satan: «Han er i di magt; men spar livet hans!»
7 And he went out the adversary from with [the] presence of Yahweh and he struck Job with boil[s] bad from [the] sole of foot his (and to *Q(K)*) scalp his.
So gjekk Satan burt frå Herren; og han slo Job med vonde svullar frå hovud til hæl;
8 And he took for himself a potsherd to scrape himself with it and he [was] sitting in [the] midst the ash[es].
og han tok seg eit skålbrot og skrapa seg med der han sat i oskedungen.
9 And she said to him wife his [are] still? you keeping hold on integrity your bless God and die.
Då sagde kona hans til honom: «Er du endå ulasteleg? Banna Gud, so du kann få døy!»
10 And he said to her as speaks one of the foolish women you are speaking also the good will we accept? from with God and the evil not will we accept? in all this not he sinned Job with lips his.
Men han svara henne: «Du talar som ei fåvis kvinna. Me tek imot av Gud det gode, skal me’kje taka og det vonde?» Tråss i alt dette synda ikkje Job med lipporne sine.
11 And they heard [the] three - [the] friends of Job all the evil this that it had come on him and they came each one from own place his Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite and they met by appointment together to come to show sympathy to him and to comfort him.
Tri vener til Job fekk høyra um den ulukka som hadde kome yver honom; dei kom kvar frå sin heimstad, Elifaz frå Teman, Bildad frå Suah, og Sofar frå Na’ama, og dei avtala seg imillom at dei skulde ganga til honom for å syna honom samhug og trøysta honom.
12 And they lifted up eyes their from a distance and not they recognized him and they lifted up voice their and they wept and they tore each one robe his and they sprinkled dust on heads their the heavens towards.
Men alt på langt fråstand såg dei at han var heilt ukjenneleg; og dei sette i og gret og reiv sund kapporne sine og kasta mold yver hovudi upp i lufti.
13 And they sat with him to the ground seven days and seven nights and not [anyone was] speaking to him a word for they saw that it was great the pain exceedingly.
Og dei sat hjå honom på jordi i sju dagar og sju næter; og ingen av deim sagde eit ord til honom, for dei såg at han pintest hardt.
