Job 2
1 On another day, the angels came again and gathered together in front of Yahweh, and Satan came too.
E, vindo outro dia, em que os filhos de Deus vieram apresentar-se perante o Senhor, veiu tambem Satanaz entre elles, apresentar-se perante o Senhor.
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.”
Então o Senhor disse a Satanaz: D'onde vens? E respondeu Satanaz ao Senhor, e disse: De rodeiar a terra, e passeiar por ella.
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.”
E disse o Senhor a Satanaz: Consideraste ao meu servo Job? porque ninguem ha na terra similhante a elle, homem sincero e recto, temente a Deus, e desviando-se do mal, e que ainda retem a sua sinceridade; havendo-me tu incitado contra elle, para o consumir sem causa.
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.
Então Satanaz respondeu ao Senhor, e disse: Pelle por pelle, e tudo quanto o homem tem dará pela sua vida.
5 But if you harm his body [MTY], he will surely curse you openly [IDM]!”
Porém estende a tua mão, e toca-lhe nos ossos, e na carne, e verás se te não amaldiçoa na tua face
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.”
E disse o Senhor a Satanaz: Eis-que elle está na tua mão; porém guarda a sua vida.
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.
Então saiu Satanaz da presença do Senhor, e feriu a Job d'uma chaga maligna, desde a planta do pé até ao alto da cabeça.
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].
E tomou um caco para se raspar com elle: e estava assentado no meio da cinza.
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.”
Então sua mulher lhe disse: Ainda retens a tua sinceridade? amaldiçoa a Deus, e morre.
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.
Porém elle lhe disse: Como falla qualquer das doidas, fallas tu; receberemos o bem de Deus, e não receberiamos o mal? Em tudo isto não peccou Job com os seus labios.
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].
Ouvindo pois tres amigos de Job todo este mal que tinha vindo sobre elle, vieram cada um do seu logar; Eliphaz o temanita, e Bildad o suhita, e Sofar o naamathita; e concertaram juntamente de virem condoer-se d'elle, e para o consolarem.
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].
E, levantando de longe os seus olhos, não o conheceram: e levantaram a sua voz e choraram; e rasgaram cada um o seu manto, e sobre as suas cabeças lançaram pó ao ar.
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].
E se assentaram juntamente com elle na terra, sete dias e sete noites: e nenhum lhe dizia palavra alguma, porque viam que a dôr era mui grande.
