| Ἑγένετο δὲ ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη καὶ ἦλθον οἱ ἄγγελοι τοῦ θεοῦ παραστῆναι ἔναντι Kυρίου, καὶ ὁ διάβολος ἦλθεν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν παραστῆναι ἐναντίον τοῦ κυρίου. | Satan tests Job again. Jb.2.1-10Satan tests Job again. Jb.2.1-10 | And it came to pass on a certain day, that the angels of God came to stand before the Lord, and the devil came among them to stand before the Lord. | |
| καὶ εἶπεν ὁ κύριος τῷ διαβόλῳ Πόθεν σὺ ἔρχῃ; τότε εἶπεν ὁ διάβολος ἐνώπιον τοῦ κυρίου Διαπορευθεὶς τὴν ὑπ' οὐρανὸν καὶ ἐμπεριπατήσας τὴν σύμ πασαν πάρειμι. | And the Lord, said to the devil, Where have you been? Then the devil said before the Lord, I am come from going through the world, and walking about the whole earth. | ||
| εἶπεν δὲ ὁ κύριος πρὸς τὸν διάβολον Προσέσχες οὖν τῷ θεράποντί μου Ιωβ, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν κατ' αὐτὸν τῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἄνθρωπος ἄκακος, ἀληθινός, ἄμεμπτος, θεοσεβής, ἀπεχόμενος ἀπὸ παντὸς κακοῦ; ἔτι δὲ ἔχεται ἀκακίας· σὺ δὲ εἶπας τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ διὰ κενῆς ἀπολέσαι. | And the Lord said to the devil, Have you then observed my servant Job, that there is none of [men] upon the earth like him, a harmless, true, blameless, godly man, abstaining from all evil? and he yet cleaves to innocence, whereas you has told [me] to destroy his substance without cause? | ||
| ὑπολαβὼν δὲ ὁ διάβολος εἶπεν τῷ κυρίῳ Δέρμα ὑπὲρ δέρματος· ὅσα ὑπάρχει ἀνθρώπῳ, ὑπὲρ τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ ἐκτείσει· | And the devil answered and said to the Lord, Skin for skin, all that a man has will he give as a ransom for his life. | ||
| οὐ μὴν δὲ ἀλλὰ ἀποστείλας τὴν χεῖρά σου ἅψαι τῶν ὀστῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν σαρκῶν αὐτοῦ· εἰ μὴν εἰς πρόσωπόν σε εὐλογήσει. | Nay, but put forth your hand, and touch his bones and his flesh: verily he will bless you to [your] face. | ||
| εἶπεν δὲ ὁ κύριος τῷ διαβόλῳ Ἰδοὺ παραδίδωμί σοι αὐτόν, μόνον τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ διαφύλαξον. | And the Lord said to the devil, Behold, I deliver him up to you; only save his life. | ||
| Ἑξῆλθεν δὲ ὁ διάβολος ἀπὸ τοῦ κυρίου καὶ ἔπαισεν τὸν Ιωβ ἕλκει πονηρῷ ἀπὸ ποδῶν ἕως κεφαλῆς. | So the devil went out from the Lord, and smote Job with sore boils from [his] feet to [his] head. | ||
| καὶ ἔλαβεν ὄστρακον, ἵνα τὸν ἰχῶρα ξύῃ, καὶ ἐκάθητο ἐπὶ τῆς κοπρίας ἔξω τῆς πόλεως. | And he took a potsherd to scrape away the discharge, and sat upon a dung-heap outside the city. | ||
| Χρόνου δὲ πολλοῦ προβεβηκότος εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ Μέχρι τίνος καρτερήσεις λέγων | And when much time had passed, his wife said to him, How long will you hold out, saying, | ||
| ὁ δὲ ἐμβλέψας εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὥσπερ μία τῶν ἀφρόνων γυναικῶν ἐλάλησας· εἰ τὰ ἀγαθὰ ἐδεξάμεθα ἐκ χειρὸς κυρίου, τὰ κακὰ οὐχ ὑποίσομεν; ἐν πᾶσιν τούτοις τοῖς συμβεβηκόσιν αὐτῷ οὐδὲν ἥμαρτεν Ιωβ τοῖς χείλεσιν ἐναντίον τοῦ θεοῦ. | But he looked on her, and said to her, You have spoken like one of the foolish women. If we have received good things of the hand of the Lord, shall we not endure evil things? In all these things that happened to him, Job sinned not at all with his lips before God. | ||
