 ΙΩΒ << Job: 41 >>The Septuagint (Brenton)
1 οὐχ ἑόρακας αὐτὸν οὐδὲ ἐπὶ τοῖς λεγομένοις τεθαύμακας;
 Have you not seen him?
and have you not wondered at the things said [of him]?
1 οὐ δέδοικας ὅτι ἡτοίμασταί μοι;
τίς γάρ ἐστιν ὁ ἐμοὶ ἀντιστάς;
 Do you not fear because preparation has been made by me?
for who is there that resists me?
2 ἢ τίς ἀντιστήσεταί μοι καὶ ὑπομενεῖ,
εἰ πᾶσα ἡ ὑπ' οὐρανὸν ἐμή ἐστιν;
 Or who will resist me, and abide,
since the whole [world] under heaven is mine?
3 οὐ σιωπήσομαι δι' αὐτόν,
καὶ λόγον δυνάμεως ἐλεήσει τὸν ἴσον αὐτοῦ.
 I will not be silent because of him:
though because of his power [one] shall pity his antagonist.
4 τίς ἀποκαλύψει πρόσωπον ἐνδύσεως αὐτοῦ;
εἰς δὲ πτύξιν θώρακος αὐτοῦ τίς ἂν εἰσέλθοι;
 Who will open the face of his garment?
and who can enter within the fold of his breastplate?
5 πύλας προσώπου αὐτοῦ τίς ἀνοίξει;
κύκλῳ ὀδόντων αὐτοῦ φόβος.
 Who will open the doors of his face?
terror is round about his teeth.
6 τὰ ἔγκατα αὐτοῦ ἀσπίδες χάλκειαι,
σύνδεσμος δὲ αὐτοῦ ὥσπερ σμιρίτης λίθος·
 His inwards are as brazen plates,
and the texture of his [skin] as a smyrite stone.
7 εἷς τοῦ ἑνὸς κολλῶνται,
πνεῦμα δὲ οὐ μὴ διέλθῃ αὐτόν·
 One [part] cleaves fast to another,
and the air cannot come between them.
8 ἀνὴρ τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ προσκολληθήσεται,
συνέχονται καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποσπασθῶσιν.
 They will remain united each to the other:
they are closely joined,
and cannot be separated.
9 ἐν πταρμῷ αὐτοῦ ἐπιφαύσκεται φέγγος,
οἱ δὲ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ εἶδος ἑωσφόρου.
 At his sneezing a light shines,
and his eyes are [as] the appearance of the morning star.
10 ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ ἐκπορεύονται λαμπάδες καιόμεναι,
καὶ διαρριπτοῦνται ἐσχάραι πυρός·
 Out of his mouth proceed as it were burning lamps,
and as it were hearths of fire are cast abroad.
11 ἐκ μυκτήρων αὐτοῦ ἐκπορεύεται καπνὸς καμίνου καιομένης πυρὶ ἀνθράκων·
 Out of his nostrils proceeds smoke of a furnace burning with fire of coals.
12 ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ ἄνθρακες,
φλὸξ δὲ ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ ἐκπορεύεται.
 His breath is [as] live coals,
and a flame goes out of his mouth.
13 ἐν δὲ τραχήλῳ αὐτοῦ αὐλίζεται δύναμις,
ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ τρέχει ἀπώλεια.
 And power is lodged in his neck,
before him destruction runs.
14 σάρκες δὲ σώματος αὐτοῦ κεκόλληνται·
καταχέει ἐπ' αὐτόν, οὐ σαλευθήσεται.
 The flesh also of his body is joined together:
[if one] pours [violence] upon him, he shall not be moved.
15 ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ πέπηγεν ὡς λίθος,
ἕστηκεν δὲ ὥσπερ ἄκμων ἀνήλατος.
 His heart is firm as a stone,
and it stands like an unyielding anvil.
16 στραφέντος δὲ αὐτοῦ φόβος θηρίοις τετράποσιν ἐπὶ γῆς ἁλλομένοις.
 And when he turns,
[he is] a terror to the four-footed wild beasts which leap upon the earth.
17 ἐὰν συναντήσωσιν αὐτῷ λόγχαι,
οὐδὲν μὴ ποιήσωσιν δόρυ ἐπηρμένον καὶ θώρακα·
 If spears should come against him, [men] will effect nothing,
[either with] the spear or the breast-plate.
18 ἥγηται μὲν γὰρ σίδηρον ἄχυρα,
χαλκὸν δὲ ὥσπερ ξύλον σαθρόν·
 For he considers iron as chaff,
and brass as rotten wood.
19 οὐ μὴ τρώσῃ αὐτὸν τόξον χάλκειον,
ἥγηται μὲν πετροβόλον χόρτον·
 The bow of brass shall not would him,
he deems a slinger as grass.
20 ὡς καλάμη ἐλογίσθησαν σφῦραι,
καταγελᾷ δὲ σεισμοῦ πυρφόρου.
 Mauls are counted as stubble;
and he laughs to scorn the waving of the firebrand.
21 ἡ στρωμνὴ αὐτοῦ ὀβελίσκοι ὀξεῖς,
πᾶς δὲ χρυσὸς θαλάσσης ὑπ' αὐτὸν ὥσπερ πηλὸς ἀμύθητος.
 His lair is [formed of] sharp points;
and all the gold of the sea under him is an immense [quantity of] clay.
22 ἀναζεῖ τὴν ἄβυσσον ὥσπερ χαλκεῖον,
ἥγηται δὲ τὴν θάλασσαν ὥσπερ ἐξάλειπτρον,
 He makes the deep boil like a brazen caldron;
and he regards the sea as a pot of ointment,
23 τὸν δὲ τάρταρον τῆς ἀβύσσου ὥσπερ αἰχμάλωτον·
ἐλογίσατο ἄβυσσον εἰς περίπατον.
 and the lowest part of the deep as a captive:
he reckons the deep as [his] range.
24 οὐκ ἔστιν οὐδὲν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ὅμοιον αὐτῷ πεποιημένον ἐγκαταπαίζεσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν ἀγγέλων μου·
 There is nothing upon the earth like to him,
formed to be sported with by my angels.
25 πᾶν ὑψηλὸν ὁρᾷ,
αὐτὸς δὲ βασιλεὺς πάντων τῶν ἐν τοῖς ὕδασιν.
 He beholds every high thing:
and he is king of all that are in the waters.
