< Job 5 >
1 Call please ¿ [is] there [one who] answers you and to whom? of [the] holy [ones] will you turn.
Pray, call, is there any to answer thee? And unto which of the holy ones dost thou turn?
2 For a fool it slays vexation and a simple [one] it kills jealousy.
For provocation slayeth the perverse, And envy putteth to death the simple,
3 I I have seen a fool taking root and I cursed habitation his suddenly.
I — I have seen the perverse taking root, And I mark his habitation straightway,
4 They are distant children his from safety so they may be crushed in the gate and there not [is] a deliverer.
Far are his sons from safety, And they are bruised in the gate, And there is no deliverer.
5 [the one] who Harvest his - [the] hungry he eats and to from thorns he takes it and it is eager for a snare wealth their.
Whose harvest the hungry doth eat, And even from the thorns taketh it, And the designing swallowed their wealth.
6 For - not it comes forth from [the] dust hardship and from [the] ground not it springs up trouble.
For sorrow cometh not forth from the dust, Nor from the ground springeth up misery.
7 For everyone to trouble he is born and [the] children of flame they make high to fly.
For man to misery is born, And the sparks go high to fly.
8 But I I will seek God and to God I will set plea my.
Yet I — I inquire for God, And for God I give my word,
9 [who] does Great [things] and there not [is] inquiry wonders until there not [is] number.
Doing great things, and there is no searching. Wonderful, till there is no numbering.
10 Who gives rain on [the] surface of [the] earth and [who] sends water on [the] surface of [the] open places.
Who is giving rain on the face of the land, And is sending waters on the out-places.
11 To set lowly [people] to a high place and mourners they are high safety.
To set the low on a high place, And the mourners have been high [in] safety.
12 [who] frustrates [the] plans of Crafty [people] and not they will bring about hands their success.
Making void thoughts of the subtile, And their hands do not execute wisdom.
13 [who] catches Wise [people] when are crafty they and [the] counsel of tortuous [people] it is hasty.
Capturing the wise in their subtilty, And the counsel of wrestling ones was hastened,
14 By day they meet darkness and like night they grope at noon.
By day they meet darkness, And as night — they grope at noon.
15 And he saved from [the] sword from mouth their and from [the] hand of [the] strong [the] needy.
And He saveth the wasted from their mouth, And from a strong hand the needy,
16 And it belonged to poor [person] hope and injustice it shuts mouth its.
And there is hope to the poor, And perverseness hath shut her mouth.
17 There! how blessed! [is the] person [whom] he reproves him God and [the] discipline of [the] Almighty may not you reject.
Lo, the happiness of mortal man, God doth reprove him: And the chastisement of the Mighty despise not,
18 For he he causes pain and he may bind up he shatters (and hands his *Q(K)*) they heal.
For He doth pain, and He bindeth up, He smiteth, and His hands heal.
19 In six troubles he will deliver you and in seven - not it will touch you harm.
In six distresses He delivereth thee, And in seven evil striketh not on thee.
20 In famine he will ransom you from death and in battle from [the] hands of [the] sword.
In famine He hath redeemed thee from death, And in battle from the hands of the sword.
21 In [the] whip of [the] tongue you will be hidden and not you will be afraid from destruction if it will come.
When the tongue scourgeth thou art hid, And thou art not afraid of destruction, When it cometh.
22 To destruction and to famine you will laugh and from [the] animal[s] of the earth may not you be afraid.
At destruction and at hunger thou mockest, And of the beast of the earth, Thou art not afraid.
23 For [will be] with [the] stones of the field covenant your and [the] animal[s] of the field it will be at peace to you.
(For with sons of the field [is] thy covenant, And the beast of the field Hath been at peace with thee.)
24 And you will know that [is] safety tent your and you will visit estate your and not you will miss.
And thou hast known that thy tent [is] peace, And inspected thy habitation, and errest not,
25 And you will know that [will be] many offspring your and descendants your [will be] like [the] vegetation of the earth.
And hast known that numerous [is] Thy seed, And thine offspring as the herb of the earth;
26 You will go in full strength to [the] grave as goes up a heap of sheaves at appropriate time its.
Thou comest in full age unto the grave, As the going up of a stalk in its season.
27 Here! this we have examined it [is] so it hear it and you know for yourself.
Lo, this — we searched it out — it [is] right, hearken; And thou, know for thyself!
