Job 1
1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name [was] Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and shunned evil.
| كَانَ رَجُلٌ فِي أَرْضِ عَوْصَ ٱسْمُهُ أَيُّوبُ. وَكَانَ هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلُ كَامِلًا وَمُسْتَقِيمًا، يَتَّقِي ٱللهَ وَيَحِيدُ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ. | ١ |
2 And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
| وَوُلِدَ لَهُ سَبْعَةُ بَنِينَ وَثَلَاثُ بَنَاتٍ. | ٢ |
3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.
| وَكَانَتْ مَوَاشِيهِ سَبْعَةَ آلَافٍ مِنَ ٱلْغَنَمِ، وَثَلَاثَةَ آلَافِ جَمَلٍ، وَخَمْسَ مِئَةِ فَدَّانِ بَقَرٍ، وَخَمْسَ مِئَةِ أَتَانٍ، وَخَدَمُهُ كَثِيرِينَ جِدًّا. فَكَانَ هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلُ أَعْظَمَ كُلِّ بَنِي ٱلْمَشْرِقِ. | ٣ |
4 And his sons went and feasted [in their] houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
| وَكَانَ بَنُوهُ يَذْهَبُونَ وَيَعْمَلُونَ وَلِيمَةً فِي بَيْتِ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ فِي يَوْمِهِ، وَيُرْسِلُونَ وَيَسْتَدْعُونَ أَخَوَاتِهِمِ ٱلثَّلَاثَ لِيَأْكُلْنَ وَيَشْرَبْنَ مَعَهُمْ. | ٤ |
5 And it was so, when the days of [their] feasting were ended, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose early in the morning, and offered burnt-offerings [according] to the number of them all; for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا دَارَتْ أَيَّامُ ٱلْوَلِيمَةِ، أَنَّ أَيُّوبَ أَرْسَلَ فَقَدَّسَهُمْ، وَبَكَّرَ فِي ٱلْغَدِ وَأَصْعَدَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ عَلَى عَدَدِهِمْ كُلِّهِمْ، لِأَنَّ أَيُّوبَ قَالَ: «رُبَّمَا أَخْطَأَ بَنِيَّ وَجَدَّفُوا عَلَى ٱللهِ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ». هَكَذَا كَانَ أَيُّوب يَفْعَلُ كُلَّ ٱلأَيَّامِ. | ٥ |
6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
| وَكَانَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ أَنَّهُ جَاءَ بَنُو ٱللهِ لِيَمْثُلُوا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَجَاءَ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ أَيْضًا فِي وَسْطِهِمْ. | ٦ |
7 And the LORD said to Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down upon it.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتَ؟». فَأَجَابَ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالَ: «مِنَ ٱلْجَوَلَانِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَمِنَ ٱلتَّمَشِّي فِيهَا». | ٧ |
8 And the LORD said to Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that [there is] none like him on the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and shunneth evil?
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ: «هَلْ جَعَلْتَ قَلْبَكَ عَلَى عَبْدِي أَيُّوبَ؟ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِثْلُهُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. رَجُلٌ كَامِلٌ وَمُسْتَقِيمٌ، يَتَّقِي ٱللهَ وَيَحِيدُ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ». | ٨ |
9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for naught?
| فَأَجَابَ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالَ: «هَلْ مَجَّانًا يَتَّقِي أَيُّوبُ ٱللهَ؟ | ٩ |
10 Hast not thou made a hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
| أَلَيْسَ أَنَّكَ سَيَّجْتَ حَوْلَهُ وَحَوْلَ بَيْتِهِ وَحَوْلَ كُلِّ مَا لَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ؟ بَارَكْتَ أَعْمَالَ يَدَيْهِ فَٱنْتَشَرَتْ مَوَاشِيهِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٠ |
11 But put forth thy hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.
| وَلَكِنِ ٱبْسِطْ يَدَكَ ٱلْآنَ وَمَسَّ كُلَّ مَا لَهُ، فَإِنَّهُ فِي وَجْهِكَ يُجَدِّفُ عَلَيْكَ». | ١١ |
12 And the LORD said to Satan, Behold, all that he hath [is] in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thy hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ: «هُوَذَا كُلُّ مَا لَهُ فِي يَدِكَ، وَإِنَّمَا إِلَيهِ لَا تَمُدَّ يَدَكَ». ثمَّ خَرَجَ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ مِنْ أَمَامِ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١٢ |
13 And there was a day when his sons and his daughters [were] eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
| وَكَانَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ وَأَبْنَاؤُهُ وَبَنَاتُهُ يَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْرَبُونَ خَمْرًا فِي بَيْتِ أَخِيهِمِ ٱلْأَكْبَرِ، | ١٣ |
14 And there came a messenger to Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:
| أَنَّ رَسُولًا جَاءَ إِلَى أَيُّوبَ وَقَالَ: «ٱلْبَقَرُ كَانَتْ تَحْرُثُ، وَٱلْأُتُنُ تَرْعَى بِجَانِبِهَا، | ١٤ |
15 And the Sabeans fell [upon them], and took them away; yes, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only have escaped alone to tell thee.
| فَسَقَطَ عَلَيْهَا ٱلسَّبَئِيُّونَ وَأَخَذُوهَا، وَضَرَبُوا ٱلْغِلْمَانَ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ، وَنَجَوْتُ أَنَا وَحْدِي لِأُخْبِرَكَ». | ١٥ |
16 While he [was] yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God hath fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I only have escaped alone to tell thee.
| وَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ إِذْ جَاءَ آخَرُ وَقَالَ: «نَارُ ٱللهِ سَقَطَتْ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ فَأَحْرَقَتِ ٱلْغَنَمَ وَٱلْغِلْمَانَ وَأَكَلَتْهُمْ، وَنَجَوْتُ أَنَا وَحْدِي لِأُخْبِرَكَ». | ١٦ |
17 While he [was] yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yes, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only have escaped alone to tell thee.
| وَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ إِذْ جَاءَ آخَرُ وَقَالَ: «ٱلْكَلْدَانِيُّونَ عَيَّنُوا ثَلَاثَ فِرَقٍ، فَهَجَمُوا عَلَى ٱلْجِمَالِ وَأَخَذُوهَا، وَضَرَبُوا ٱلْغِلْمَانَ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ، وَنَجَوْتُ أَنَا وَحْدِي لِأُخْبِرَكَ». | ١٧ |
18 While he [was] yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters [were] eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
| وَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ إِذْ جَاءَ آخَرُ وَقَالَ: «بَنُوكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْرَبُونَ خَمْرًا فِي بَيْتِ أَخِيهِمِ ٱلْأَكْبَرِ، | ١٨ |
19 And behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only have escaped alone to tell thee.
| وَإِذَا رِيحٌ شَدِيدَةٌ جَاءَتْ مِنْ عَبْرِ ٱلْقَفْرِ وَصَدَمَتْ زَوَايَا ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْأَرْبَعَ، فَسَقَطَ عَلَى ٱلْغِلْمَانِ فَمَاتُوا، وَنَجَوْتُ أَنَا وَحْدِي لِأُخْبِرَكَ». | ١٩ |
20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell upon the ground, and worshiped,
| فَقَامَ أَيُّوبُ وَمَزَّقَ جُبَّتَهُ، وَجَزَّ شَعْرَ رَأْسِهِ، وَخَرَّ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَسَجَدَ، | ٢٠ |
21 And said, Naked came I from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: The LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
| وَقَالَ: «عُرْيَانًا خَرَجْتُ مِنْ بَطْنِ أُمِّي، وَعُرْيَانًا أَعُودُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ. ٱلرَّبُّ أَعْطَى وَٱلرَّبُّ أَخَذَ، فَلْيَكُنِ ٱسْمُ ٱلرَّبِّ مُبَارَكًا». | ٢١ |
22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.
| فِي كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يُخْطِئْ أَيُّوبُ وَلَمْ يَنْسِبْ لِلهِ جَهَالَةً. | ٢٢ |
