אִיּוֹב 35
| וַיַּ֥עַן אֱלִיה֗וּ וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ | 1 |
Therfor Helyu spak eft these thingis, Whethir thi thouyt semeth euene,
| הֲ֭זֹאת חָשַׁ֣בְתָּ לְמִשְׁפָּ֑ט אָ֝מַ֗רְתָּ צִדְקִ֥י מֵאֵֽל׃ | 2 |
`ether riytful, to thee, that thou schuldist seie, Y am riytfulere than God?
| כִּֽי־תֹ֭אמַר מַה־יִּסְכָּן־לָ֑ךְ מָֽה־אֹ֝עִ֗יל מֵֽחַטָּאתִֽי׃ | 3 |
For thou seidist, That, that is good, plesith not thee; ethir what profitith it to thee, if Y do synne?
| אֲ֭נִי אֲשִֽׁיבְךָ֣ מִלִּ֑ין וְֽאֶת־רֵעֶ֥יךָ עִמָּֽךְ׃ | 4 |
Therfor Y schal answere to thi wordis, and to thi frendis with thee.
| הַבֵּ֣ט שָׁמַ֣יִם וּרְאֵ֑ה וְשׁ֥וּר שְׁ֝חָקִ֗ים גָּבְה֥וּ מִמֶּֽךָּ׃ | 5 |
Se thou, and biholde heuene, and biholde thou the eir, that God is hiyere than thou.
| אִם־חָ֭טָאתָ מַה־תִּפְעָל־בּ֑וֹ וְרַבּ֥וּ פְ֝שָׁעֶ֗יךָ מַה־תַּעֲשֶׂה־לּֽוֹ׃ | 6 |
If thou synnest `ayens hym, what schalt thou anoye hym? and if thi wickidnessis ben multiplied, what schalt thou do ayens hym?
| אִם־צָ֭דַקְתָּ מַה־תִּתֶּן־ל֑וֹ א֥וֹ מַה־מִיָּדְךָ֥ יִקָּֽח׃ | 7 |
Certis if thou doist iustli, what schalt thou yyue to hym; ether what schal he take of thin hond?
| לְאִישׁ־כָּמ֥וֹךָ רִשְׁעֶ֑ךָ וּלְבֶן־אָ֝דָ֗ם צִדְקָתֶֽךָ׃ | 8 |
Thi wickidnesse schal anoie a man, which is lijk thee; and thi riytfulnesse schal helpe the sone of a man.
| מֵ֭רֹב עֲשׁוּקִ֣ים יַזְעִ֑יקוּ יְשַׁוְּע֖וּ מִזְּר֣וֹעַ רַבִּֽים׃ | 9 |
Thei schulen cry for the multitude of fals chalengeris, and thei schulen weile for the violence of the arm of tirauntis.
| וְֽלֹא־אָמַ֗ר אַ֭יֵּה אֱל֣וֹהַּ עֹשָׂ֑י נֹתֵ֖ן זְמִר֣וֹת בַּלָּֽיְלָה׃ | 10 |
And Joob seide not, Where is God, that made me, and that yaf songis in the nyyt?
| מַ֭לְּפֵנוּ מִבַּהֲמ֣וֹת אָ֑רֶץ וּמֵע֖וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם יְחַכְּמֵֽנוּ׃ | 11 |
Which God techith vs aboue the beestis of erthe, and he schal teche vs aboue the briddis of heuene.
| שָׁ֣ם יִ֭צְעֲקוּ וְלֹ֣א יַעֲנֶ֑ה מִ֝פְּנֵ֗י גְּא֣וֹן רָעִֽים׃ | 12 |
There thei schulen crye, and God schal not here, for the pride of yuele men.
| אַךְ־שָׁ֭וְא לֹא־יִשְׁמַ֥ע ׀ אֵ֑ל וְ֝שַׁדַּ֗י לֹ֣א יְשׁוּרֶֽנָּה׃ | 13 |
For God schal not here with out cause, and Almyyti God schal biholde the causis of ech man.
| אַ֣ף כִּֽי־תֹ֭אמַר לֹ֣א תְשׁוּרֶ֑נּוּ דִּ֥ין לְ֝פָנָ֗יו וּתְח֥וֹלֵֽל לֽוֹ׃ | 14 |
Yhe, whanne thou seist, He biholdith not; be thou demed bifor hym, and abide thou hym.
| וְעַתָּ֗ה כִּי־אַ֭יִן פָּקַ֣ד אַפּ֑וֹ וְלֹֽא־יָדַ֖ע בַּפַּ֣שׁ מְאֹֽד׃ | 15 |
For now he bryngith not in his strong veniaunce, nether vengith `greetli felonye.
| וְ֭אִיּוֹב הֶ֣בֶל יִפְצֶה־פִּ֑יהוּ בִּבְלִי־דַ֝֗עַת מִלִּ֥ין יַכְבִּֽר׃ פ | 16 |
Therfor Joob openith his mouth in veyn, and multiplieth wordis with out kunnyng.
