1فاجاب ايوب وقال
1And Job answered and said,
2كيف اعنت من لا قوة له وخلصت ذراعا لا عزّ لها.
2How hast thou helped the powerless; how saved the arm that is without strength!
3كيف اشرت على من لا حكمة له واظهرت الفهم بكثرة.
3How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom, and abundantly declared the thing as it is!
4لمن اعلنت اقوالا ونسمة من خرجت منك
4For whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?
5الأخيلة ترتعد من تحت المياه وسكانها.
5The shades tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants thereof;
6الهاوية عريانة قدامه والهلاك ليس له غطاء.
6Sheol is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering.
7يمد الشمال على الخلاء ويعلّق الارض على لا شيء.
7He stretcheth out the north over empty space, he hangeth the earth upon nothing;
8يصرّ المياه في سحبه فلا يتمزق الغيم تحتها.
8He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not rent under them.
9يحجب وجه كرسيه باسطا عليه سحابه.
9He covereth the face of his throne, he spreadeth his cloud upon it.
10رسم حدّا على وجه المياه عند اتصال النور بالظلمة.
10He hath traced a fixed circle over the waters, unto the confines of light and darkness.
11اعمدة السموات ترتعد وترتاع من زجره.
11The pillars of the heavens tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
12بقوته يزعج البحر وبفهمه يسحق رهب.
12He stirreth up the sea by his power, and by his understanding he smiteth through Rahab.
13بنفخته السموات مسفرة ويداه ابدأتا الحية الهاربة.
13By his Spirit the heavens are adorned; his hand hath formed the fleeing serpent.
14ها هذه اطراف طرقه وما اخفض الكلام الذي نسمعه منه. واما رعد جبروته فمن يفهم
14Lo, these are the borders of his ways; but what a whisper of a word do we hear of him! And the thunder of his power, who can understand?
