Job 17
1 Mi spirit schal be maad feble; my daies schulen be maad schort, and oneli the sepulcre is left to me.
わが氣息は已にくさり 我日すでに盡なんとし墳墓われを待つ
2 Y have not synned, and myn iye dwellith in bittirnessis.
まことに嘲弄者等わが傍に在り 我目は彼らの辨爭ふを常に見ざるを得ず
3 Lord, delyuere thou me, and sette thou me bisidis thee; and the hond of ech fiyte ayens me.
願くは質を賜ふて汝みづから我の保證となりたまへ 誰か他にわが手をうつ者あらんや
4 Thou hast maad the herte of hem fer fro doctryn, `ethir knowyng of treuthe; therfor thei schulen not be enhaunsid.
汝彼らの心を閉て悟るところ無らしめたまへり 必ず彼らをして愈らしめたまはじ
5 He bihetith prey to felowis, and the iyen of hise sones schulen faile.
朋友を交付して掠奪に遭しむる者は其子等の目潰るべし
6 He hath set as in to a prouerbe of the comyn puple, and his saumple bifor hem.
彼われを世の民の笑柄とならしめたまふ 我は面に唾せらるべき者となれり
7 Myn `iye dasewide at indignacioun; and my membris ben dryuun as in to nouyt.
かつまた我目は憂愁によりて昏み 肢體は凡て影のごとし
8 Iust men schulen wondre on this thing; and an innocent schal be reisid ayens an ypocrite.
義しき者は之に驚き 無辜者は邪曲なる者を見て憤ほる
9 And a iust man schal holde his weie, and he schal adde strengthe to clene hondis.
然ながら義しき者はその道を堅く持ち 手に潔淨き者はますます力を得るなり
10 Therfor alle `ye be conuertid, and come ye; and Y schal not fynde in you ony wiys man.
請ふ汝ら皆ふたたび來れ 我は汝らの中に一人も智き者あるを見ざるなり
11 My daies ben passid; my thouytis ben scaterid, turmentynge myn herte.
わが日は已に過ぎ わが計る所わが心に冀ふ所は已に敗れたり
12 Tho han turned the nyyt `in to day; and eft aftir derknessis hope liyt.
彼ら夜を晝に變ふ 黒暗の前に光明ちかづく
13 If Y `susteyne, ether suffre pacientli, helle is myn hous; and Y haue arayede my bed in derknessis. (Sheol h7585)
我もし俟つところ有ば是わが家たるべき陰府なるのみ 我は黒暗にわが牀を展ぶ (Sheol h7585)
14 Y seide to rot, Thou art my fadur; and to wormes, Ye ben my modir and my sister.
われ朽腐に向ひては汝はわが父なりと言ひ 蛆に向ひては汝は我母わが姉妹なりと言ふ
15 Therfor where is now myn abidyng? and who biholdith my pacience?
然ばわが望はいづくにかある 我望は誰かこれを見る者あらん
