1فاجاب ايوب وقال
1Then Job answered and said,
2حتى متى تعذبون نفسي وتسحقونني بالكلام.
2How long will ye vex my soul, And break me in pieces with words?
3هذه عشر مرات اخزيتموني. لم تخجلوا من ان تحكروني.
3These ten times have ye reproached me: Ye are not ashamed that ye deal hardly with me.
4وهبني ضللت حقا. عليّ تستقر ضلالتي.
4And be it indeed that I have erred, Mine error remaineth with myself.
5ان كنتم بالحق تستكبرون عليّ فثبتوا عليّ عاري.
5If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, And plead against me my reproach;
6فاعلموا اذا ان الله قد عوّجني ولف عليّ احبولته.
6Know now that God hath subverted me [in my cause], And hath compassed me with his net.
7ها اني اصرخ ظلما فلا أستجاب. ادعو وليس حكم.
7Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry for help, but there is no justice.
8قد حوّط طريقي فلا اعبر وعلى سبلي جعل ظلاما.
8He hath walled up my way that I cannot pass, And hath set darkness in my paths.
9ازال عني كرامتي ونزع تاج راسي.
9He hath stripped me of my glory, And taken the crown from my head.
10هدمني من كل جهة فذهبت. وقلع مثل شجرة رجائي.
10He hath broken me down on every side, and I am gone; And my hope hath he plucked up like a tree.
11واضرم عليّ غضبه وحسبني كاعدائه.
11He hath also kindled his wrath against me, And he counteth me unto him as [one of] his adversaries.
12معا جاءت غزاته واعدّوا عليّ طريقهم وحلّوا حول خيمتي.
12His troops come on together, And cast up their way against me, And encamp round about my tent.
13قد ابعد عني اخوتي. ومعارفي زاغوا عني.
13He hath put my brethren far from me, And mine acquaintance are wholly estranged from me.
14اقاربي قد خذلوني والذين عرفوني نسوني.
14My kinsfolk have failed, And my familiar friends have forgotten me.
15نزلاء بيتي وامائي يحسبونني اجنبيا. صرت في اعينهم غريبا.
15They that dwell in my house, and my maids, count me for a stranger; I am an alien in their sight.
16عبدي دعوت فلم يجب. بفمي تضرعت اليه.
16I call unto my servant, and he giveth me no answer, [Though] I entreat him with my mouth.
17نكهتي مكروهة عند امرأتي وخممت عند ابناء احشائي.
17My breath is strange to my wife, And my supplication to the children of mine own mother.
18الاولاد ايضا قد رذلوني. اذا قمت يتكلمون عليّ.
18Even young children despise me; If I arise, they speak against me.
19كرهني كل رجالي والذين احببتهم انقلبوا عليّ.
19All my familiar friends abhor me, And they whom I loved are turned against me.
20عظمي قد لصق بجلدي ولحمي ونجوت بجلد اسناني.
20My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, And I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
21تراءفوا تراءفوا انتم عليّ يا اصحابي لان يد الله قد مسّتني.
21Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; For the hand of God hath touched me.
22لماذا تطاردونني كما الله ولا تشبعون من لحمي
22Why do ye persecute me as God, And are not satisfied with my flesh?
23ليت كلماتي الآن تكتب. يا ليتها رسمت في سفر
23Oh that my words were now written! Oh that they were inscribed in a book!
24ونقرت الى الابد في الصخر بقلم حديد وبرصاص.
24That with an iron pen and lead They were graven in the rock for ever!
25اما انا فقد علمت ان وليّي حيّ والآخر على الارض يقوم
25But as for me I know that my Redeemer liveth, And at last he will stand up upon the earth:
26وبعد ان يفنى جلدي هذا وبدون جسدي ارى الله
26And after my skin, [even] this [body], is destroyed, Then without my flesh shall I see God;
27الذي اراه انا لنفسي وعيناي تنظران وليس آخر. الى ذلك تتوق كليتاي في جوفي.
27Whom I, even I, shall see, on my side, And mine eyes shall behold, and not as a stranger. My heart is consumed within me.
28فانكم تقولون لماذا نطارده. والكلام الاصلي يوجد عندي.
28If ye say, How we will persecute him! And that the root of the matter is found in me;
29خافوا على انفسكم من السيف لان الغيظ من آثام السيف. لكي تعلموا ما هو القضاء
29Be ye afraid of the sword: For wrath [bringeth] the punishments of the sword, That ye may know there is a judgment.
