< Job 27 >
1 and to add: again Job to lift: loud proverb his and to say
And Job continued taking up his parable, and said,
2 alive God to turn aside: remove justice my and Almighty to provoke soul my
As God liveth, who hath removed justice from me; and by the Almighty, who hath embittered my soul:
3 for all still breath my in/on/with me and spirit god in/on/with face: nose my
All the while my breath is in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;
4 if: surely no to speak: speak lips my injustice and tongue my if: surely no to mutter deceit
Shall my lips not speak any wrong, nor shall my tongue utter deceit.
5 forbid to/for me if: surely yes to justify [obj] you till to die not to turn aside: remove integrity my from me
Far be it from me that I should justify you; till I depart hence will I not allow [any one] to take my integrity away from me.
6 in/on/with righteousness my to strengthen: hold and not to slacken her not to taunt heart my from day my
I have laid fast hold on my righteousness, and I will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me [for my conduct] during all my life.
7 to be like/as wicked enemy my and to arise: attack me like/as unjust
Like the wicked is [therefore] my enemy, and he that riseth up against me like a wrong-doer.
8 for what? hope profane for to cut off for to extract god soul: life his
For what is the hope of the hypocrite, when he hath gained unjust wealth, when God casteth forth his soul?
9 cry his to hear: hear God for to come (in): come upon him distress
Will God hear his cry, when distress cometh upon him?
10 if: surely yes upon Almighty to delight to call: call to god in/on/with all time
Or can he find delight in the Almighty? can he call on God at all times?
11 to show [obj] you in/on/with hand: power God which with Almighty not to hide
I will instruct you concerning what is in the hand of God: [the way] which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.
12 look! you(m. p.) all your to see and to/for what? this vanity to become vain
Lo! ye yourselves have all beheld it: why is it then that ye deal in such vanities?
13 this portion man wicked with God and inheritance ruthless from Almighty to take: recieve
This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the portion of tyrants, which they shall receive from the Almighty.
14 if to multiply son: child his upon sword and offspring his not to satisfy food: bread
If his children be multiplied, it is only for the sword; and his offspring will not be satisfied with bread.
15 (survivor his *Q(K)*) in/on/with death to bury and widow his not to weep
Those of his that are left to escape will be buried by death; and his widows will not be able to weep.
16 if to heap like/as dust silver: money and like/as clay to establish: prepare garment
Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare garments [as plentifully] as the clay:
17 to establish: prepare and righteous to clothe and silver: money innocent to divide
He may prepare, but the righteous will clothe himself [therewith], and the silver the innocent will divide.
18 to build like/as moth house: home his and like/as booth to make to watch
He buildeth his house like the moth, and like a hut that a keeper hath made.
19 rich to lie down: sleep and not to gather eye his to open and nothing he
Rich will he lie down, but will not be gathered [into the grave]: one openeth his eyes, and he is no more.
20 to overtake him like/as water terror night to steal him whirlwind
Like a flood will terror overtake him, in the night a tempest will steal him away.
21 to lift: bear him east and to go: went and to storm him from place his
The east wind will lift him up, and he must be gone; and it hurleth him like a storm out of his place.
22 and to throw upon him and not to spare from hand: power his to flee to flee
And [God] will cast [evil] upon him, and bare no pity: out of his hand [his wealth] will surely escape.
23 to slap upon them palm their and to whistle upon him from place his
Men will clap their hands over him, and will hiss after him out of his place.
