< Ayub 2 >

1 Makhluk-makhluk surgawi kembali menghadap TUHAN, dan Si Penggoda ada pula di antara mereka.
And it was the day and they came [the] sons of God to present themselves on Yahweh and he came also the adversary in midst of them to present himself on Yahweh.
2 Maka TUHAN bertanya kepadanya, "Dari mana engkau?" Si Penggoda menjawab, "Dari perjalanan mengembara ke sana sini dan menjelajahi bumi."
And he said Yahweh to the adversary where? from this are you coming and he answered the adversary Yahweh and he said from roving about on the earth and from going about on it.
3 TUHAN bertanya, "Apakah sudah kauperhatikan hamba-Ku Ayub? Di seluruh bumi tak ada orang yang begitu setia dan baik hati seperti dia. Ia menyembah Aku dan sama sekali tidak melakukan kejahatan. Dia masih tetap setia kepada-Ku, walaupun engkau telah membujuk Aku mencelakakan dia tanpa alasan."
And he said Yahweh to the adversary ¿ have you set heart your to servant my Job for there not [is] like him on the earth a man blameless and upright fearing God and [who] turns aside from evil and still he [is] keeping hold on integrity his and you incited me against him to ruin him without cause.
4 Tetapi Si Penggoda menjawab, "Nyawa dan kesehatan lebih berharga daripada harta. Manusia rela mengurbankan segala miliknya asal ia dapat tetap hidup.
And he answered the adversary Yahweh and he said skin for skin and all that [belongs] to the man he will give for life his.
5 Seandainya tubuhnya Kausakiti, pasti ia akan langsung mengutuki Engkau!"
But stretch out please hand your and touch bone his and flesh his if not to face your he will bless you.
6 Maka berkatalah TUHAN kepada Si Penggoda, "Baiklah, lakukanlah apa saja dengan dia, asal jangan kaubunuh dia."
And he said Yahweh to the adversary there he [is] in hand your surely life his preserve.
7 Maka Si Penggoda pergi dari hadapan TUHAN, dan menimbulkan borok pada seluruh tubuh Ayub dari telapak kaki sampai ujung kepalanya.
And he went out the adversary from with [the] presence of Yahweh and he struck Job with boil[s] bad from [the] sole of foot his (and to *Q(K)*) scalp his.
8 Lalu Ayub duduk di dekat timbunan sampah, dan mengambil beling untuk menggaruk-garuk badannya.
And he took for himself a potsherd to scrape himself with it and he [was] sitting in [the] midst the ash[es].
9 Istrinya berkata kepadanya, "Mana bisa engkau masih tetap setia kepada Allah? Ayo, kutukilah Dia, lalu matilah!"
And she said to him wife his [are] still? you keeping hold on integrity your bless God and die.
10 Jawab Ayub, "Kaubicara seperti orang dungu! Masakan kita hanya mau menerima apa yang baik dari Allah, sedangkan yang tidak baik kita tolak?" Jadi, meskipun Ayub mengalami segala musibah itu, ia tidak mengucapkan kata-kata yang melawan Allah.
And he said to her as speaks one of the foolish women you are speaking also the good will we accept? from with God and the evil not will we accept? in all this not he sinned Job with lips his.
11 Musibah yang menimpa Ayub telah didengar oleh tiga orang temannya, yaitu Elifas dari kota Teman, Bildad orang Suah dan Zofar orang Naamah. Mereka bersepakat hendak menjenguk dan menghiburnya.
And they heard [the] three - [the] friends of Job all the evil this that it had come on him and they came each one from own place his Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite and they met by appointment together to come to show sympathy to him and to comfort him.
12 Tetapi ketika dari kejauhan mereka memandangnya, mereka hampir tak dapat mengenalinya lagi. Mereka menangis dengan nyaring dan merobek pakaian mereka serta menaburkan debu ke udara dan di kepala.
And they lifted up eyes their from a distance and not they recognized him and they lifted up voice their and they wept and they tore each one robe his and they sprinkled dust on heads their the heavens towards.
13 Tujuh hari tujuh malam mereka duduk di tanah, di samping Ayub, tanpa mengucapkan sepatah kata pun, karena mereka melihat betapa berat penderitaannya.
And they sat with him to the ground seven days and seven nights and not [anyone was] speaking to him a word for they saw that it was great the pain exceedingly.
