Job 2
1 On another day, the angels came again and gathered together in front of Yahweh, and Satan came too.
| و روزی واقع شد که پسران خدا آمدند تا به حضور خداوند حاضر شوند، و شیطان نیزدر میان ایشان آمد تا به حضور خداوند حاضرشود. | ۱ |
2 Yahweh asked Satan, “Where have you come from?” Satan replied, “I have come from the earth, where I have been traveling back and forth, seeing what is happening.”
| و خداوند به شیطان گفت: «از کجاآمدی؟» شیطان در جواب خداوند گفت: «ازتردد نمودن در جهان و از سیر کردن در آن.» | ۲ |
3 Yahweh asked Satan, “Have you (noticed/thought about) my [faithful] servant Job? He is very godly/righteous [DOU], he greatly respects/reveres me, and he [always] avoids doing evil things. And he still acts in a very godly/righteous manner, even though you persuaded me to [let you] cause disastrous things to happen to him for no reason.”
| خداوند به شیطان گفت: «آیا در بنده من ایوب تفکر نمودی که مثل او در زمین نیست؟ مرد کامل و راست و خداترس که از بدی اجتناب می‌نمایدو تا الان کاملیت خود را قایم نگاه می‌دارد، هرچند مرا بر آن واداشتی که او را بی‌سبب اذیت رسانم.» | ۳ |
4 Satan replied to Yahweh, “He praises you only because you bless him [IDM]. People will give up everything they have to save their own lives.
| شیطان در جواب خداوند گفت: «پوست به عوض پوست، و هر‌چه انسان داردبرای جان خود خواهد داد. | ۴ |
5 But if you harm his body [MTY], he will surely curse you openly [IDM]!”
| لیکن الان دست خود را دراز کرده، استخوان و گوشت او را لمس نما و تو را پیش روی تو ترک خواهد نمود.» | ۵ |
6 Yahweh replied to Satan, “(All right/Okay), you may do to him whatever you want to do, but do not cause him to die.”
| خداوند به شیطان گفت: «اینک او در دست تواست، لیکن جان او را حفظ کن.» | ۶ |
7 So Satan left, and he caused Job to be afflicted with very painful boils, from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.
| پس شیطان از حضور خداوند بیرون رفته، ایوب را از کف پا تا کله‌اش به دملهای سخت مبتلا ساخت. | ۷ |
8 Job took a piece of broken pottery and scraped the boils on his skin, and he sat in ashes [as people did when they were mourning for those who had died].
| و او سفالی گرفت تا خود را با آن بخراشد و در میان خاکستر نشسته بود. | ۸ |
9 His wife said to him, “Are you still trying to (be loyal to/faithfully trust in) God? You should curse God, and then you will die.”
| و زنش او را گفت: «آیا تا بحال کاملیت خود را نگاه می‌داری؟ خدا را ترک کن و بمیر.» | ۹ |
10 But Job replied, “You talk like people who do not know God talk. (Should we accept only the good things that God [does for us]?/We should not accept only the good things that God [does for us].) [RHQ] We should also accept bad things.” So in spite of all these [things that happened to] Job, [he] did not say anything against God.
| او وی را گفت: «مثل یکی از زنان ابله سخن می‌گویی! آیا نیکویی را از خدا بیابیم و بدی رانیابیم؟» در این همه، ایوب به لبهای خود گناه نکرد. | ۱۰ |
11 Among Job’s friends were Eliphaz from Teman [town], Bildad from Shuah [land] and Zophar from Naamah [land]. When they heard about all the terrible things that had happened to Job, they left their home areas and went together to Job to console/comfort him [DOU].
| و چون سه دوست ایوب، این همه بدی راکه بر او واقع شده بود شنیدند، هر یکی از مکان خود، یعنی الیفاز تیمانی و بلدد شوحی و سوفرنعماتی روانه شدند و با یکدیگر همداستان گردیدند که آمده، او را تعزیت گویند و تسلی دهند. | ۱۱ |
12 When they saw Job from a distance, they almost did not recognize him. They wailed loudly, they tore their robes, and they threw dust over their heads [to show how sorry they were because of what had happened to Job].
| و چون چشمان خود را از دور بلندکرده، او را نشناختند، آواز خود را بلند نموده، گریستند و هر یک جامه خود را دریده، خاک بسوی آسمان بر سر خود افشاندند. | ۱۲ |
13 Then they sat on the ground with Job for seven days. None of them said anything to Job, because they saw that he was suffering greatly, [and they did not think that anything that they said would lessen his pain].
| و هفت روز و هفت شب همراه او بر زمین نشستند و کسی با وی سخنی نگفت چونکه دیدند که درد او بسیارعظیم است. | ۱۳ |
