Ījaba 2
1 Un notikās atkal kādā dienā, kad Dieva bērni nāca, stāties Tā Kunga priekšā, tad arī sātans atnāca viņu starpā, stāties Tā Kunga priekšā.
But it happened that, on a certain day, when the sons of God had arrived and they stood before the Lord, Satan likewise arrived among them, and he stood in his sight.
2 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz sātanu: no kurienes tu nāci? Un sātans Tam Kungam atbildēja un sacīja: esmu gājis apkārt pa pasauli un to esmu izstaigājis.
So the Lord said to Satan, “Where do you come from?” Answering, he said, “I have circled the land, and walked around in it.”
3 Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz sātanu: vai tu neesi licis vērā Manu kalpu Ījabu? Jo neviena tāda nav pasaulē kā viņš, sirdsskaidrs un taisns, dievbijīgs vīrs, un kas tā sargās no ļauna; un viņš vēl turas stipri pie savas sirdsskaidrības, bet tu Mani esi skubinājis pret viņu, viņu velti samaitāt.
And the Lord said to Satan, “Have you not considered my servant, Job, that there is no one like him in the land, a simple and honest man, fearing God and withdrawing from evil, and still retaining his innocence? Yet you have stirred me against him, so that I would afflict him to no purpose.”
4 Tad sātans Tam Kungam atbildēja un sacīja: ādu par ādu; un visu, kas cilvēkam pieder, to viņš dod par savu dzīvību.
Answering him, Satan said, “Skin for skin; and everything that a man has, he will give for his life.
5 Bet izstiep jel Savu roku un aizskar viņa kaulus un viņa miesas; tiešām viņš Tev vaigā atsacīsies.
Yet send your hand and touch his bone and his flesh, and then you will see whether or not he blesses you to your face.”
6 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz sātanu: redzi, lai viņš ir tavā rokā, bet taupi viņa dzīvību.
Therefore, the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand, but even so, spare his life.”
7 Tad sātans aizgāja no Tā Kunga un sita Ījabu ar nikniem augoņiem no pēdas līdz galvas virsai.
And so, Satan departed from the face of the Lord and he struck Job with a very serious ulcer from the sole of the foot all the way to the crown of his head.
8 Un viņš ņēma poda gabalu, ar to kasīties, un bija apsēdies pelnos.
So he took a shard of earthenware and scraped the discharge, while sitting on a heap of refuse.
9 Tad viņa sieva uz viņu sacīja: vai tu vēl stipri turies pie savas sirds skaidrības? Atsaki Dievam un mirsti.
But his wife said to him, “Do you still continue in your simplicity? Bless God and die.”
10 Bet viņš uz to sacīja: tu runā kā daža neprātīga runā; vai labumu gan saņemsim no Dieva, bet ļaunumu vis nesaņemsim? Visās šinīs lietās Ījabs neapgrēkojās ar savām lūpām.
He said to her, “You have spoken like one of the foolish wives. If we accepted good things from the hand of God, why should we not accept bad things?” In all this, Job did not sin with his lips.
11 Kad nu Ījaba trīs draugi dzirdēja visu šo nelaimi, kas viņam bija uzgājusi, tad tie nāca ikkatrs no savas vietas, Elifas no Temanas un Bildads no Šuhas un Cofars no Naēmas; jo tie bija sarunājušies, nākt un viņu žēlot un viņu iepriecināt.
And so, three friends of Job, hearing about all the evil that had befallen him, arrived, each one from his own place, Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had agreed to come together to visit and console him.
12 Un tie pacēla savas acis no tālienes un viņu nepazina; tad tie pacēla savu balsi un raudāja, un ikviens no tiem saplēsa savus svārkus un kaisīja pīšļus uz savām galvām pret debesīm.
And when they had raised up their eyes from a distance, they did not recognize him, and, crying out, they wept, and, tearing their garments, they scattered dust over their heads into the sky.
13 Tā tie pie viņa sēdēja zemē septiņas dienas un septiņas naktis, un neviens uz to nerunāja ne vārda; jo tie redzēja, ka tās sāpes bija ļoti lielas.
And they sat with him on the ground for seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his sorrow was very great.
