10ΙΩΒBrenton(Lxx)JOB Revised Standard VersionJOB 10

1κάμνων τῇ ψυχῇ μου, στένων ἐπαφήσω ἐπ' αὐτὸν τὰ ῥήματά μου·
λαλήσω πικρίᾳ ψυχῆς μου συνεχόμενος
Weary in my soul,
I will pour my words with groans upon him:
I will speak being straitened in the bitterness of my soul.
 "I loathe my life;
I will give free utterance to my complaint;
I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
נָקְטָה נַפְשִׁי בְּחַיָּי אֶעֶזְבָה עָלַי שִׂיחִי אֲדַבְּרָה בְּמַר נַפְשִׁי׃ 1
2καὶ ἐρῶ πρὸς κύριον Μή με ἀσεβεῖν δίδασκε·
καὶ διὰ τί με οὕτως ἔκρινας;
And I will say to the Lord,
Do not teach me to be impious;
and why have you thus judged me?
 I will say to God, Do not condemn me;
let me know why thou dost contend against me.
אֹמַר אֶל־אֱלֹוהַּ אַל־תַּרְשִׁיעֵנִי הֹודִיעֵנִי עַל מַה־תְּרִיבֵנִי׃ 2
3ἦ καλόν σοι, ἐὰν ἀδικήσω;
ὅτι ἀπείπω ἔργα χειρῶν σου;
βουλῇ δὲ ἀσεβῶν προσέσχες;
Is it good before you if I be unrighteous?
for you have disowned the work of your hands,
and attended to the counsel of the ungodly.
 Does it seem good to thee to oppress,
to despise the work of thy hands
and favor the designs of the wicked?
הֲטֹוב לְכָ כִּי־תַעֲשֹׁק כִּי־תִמְאַס יְגִיעַ כַּפֶּיךָ וְעַל־עֲצַת רְשָׁעִים הֹופָעְתָּ׃ 3
4ἦ ὥσπερ βροτὸς ὁρᾷ καθορᾷς;
ἢ καθὼς ὁρᾷ ἄνθρωπος βλέψῃ;
Or do you see as a mortal sees?
or will you look as a man sees?
 Hast thou eyes of flesh?
Dost thou see as man sees?
הַעֵינֵי בָשָׂר לָךְ אִם־כִּרְאֹות אֱנֹושׁ תִּרְאֶה׃ 4
5ἦ ὁ βίος σου ἀνθρώπινός ἐστιν,
ἢ τὰ ἔτη σου ἀνδρός;
Or is your life human,
or your years [the years] of a man,
 Are thy days as the days of man,
or thy years as man's years,
הֲכִימֵי אֱנֹושׁ יָמֶיךָ אִם־שְׁנֹותֶיךָ כִּימֵי גָבֶר׃ 5
6ὅτι ἀνεζήτησας τὴν ἀνομίαν μου,
καὶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας μου ἐξιχνίασας.
that you have enquired into mine iniquity,
and searched out my sins?
 that thou dost seek out my iniquity
and search for my sin,
כִּי־תְבַקֵּשׁ לַעֲוֹנִי וּלְחַטָּאתִי תִדְרֹושׁ׃ 6
7οἶδας γὰρ ὅτι οὐκ ἠσέβησα·
ἀλλὰ τίς ἐστιν ὁ ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν σου ἐξαιρούμενος;
For you know that I have not committed iniquity:
but who is he that can deliver out of your hands?
 although thou knowest that I am not guilty,
and there is none to deliver out of thy hand?
עַל־דַּעְתְּךָ כִּי־לֹא אֶרְשָׁע וְאֵין מִיָּדְךָ מַצִּיל׃ 7
8αἱ χεῖρές σου ἔπλασάν με καὶ ἐποίησάν με,
μετὰ ταῦτα μεταβαλών με ἔπαισας.
Your hands have formed me and made me;
afterwards you changed [your mind], and smite me.
 Thy hands fashioned and made me;
and now thou dost turn about and destroy me.
יָדֶיךָ עִצְּבוּנִי וַיַּעֲשׂוּנִי יַחַד סָבִיב וַתְּבַלְּעֵנִי׃ 8
9μνήσθητι ὅτι πηλόν με ἔπλασας,
εἰς δὲ γῆν με πάλιν ἀποστρέφεις.
Remember that you have made me [as] clay,
and you do turn me again to earth.
 Remember that thou hast made me of clay;
and wilt thou turn me to dust again?
זְכָר־נָא כִּי־כַחֹמֶר עֲשִׂיתָנִי וְאֶל־עָפָר תְּשִׁיבֵנִי׃ 9
10ἦ οὐχ ὥσπερ γάλα με ἤμελξας,
ἐτύρωσας δέ με ἴσα τυρῷ;
Have you not poured me out like milk,
and curdled me like cheese?
 Didst thou not pour me out like milk and curdle me like cheese?
הֲלֹא כֶחָלָב תַּתִּיכֵנִי וְכַגְּבִנָּה תַּקְפִּיאֵנִי׃ 10
11δέρμα καὶ κρέας με ἐνέδυσας,
ὀστέοις δὲ καὶ νεύροις με ἐνεῖρας.
And you clothed me with skin and flesh,
and frame me with bones and sinews.
 Thou didst clothe me with skin and flesh,
and knit me together with bones and sinews.
עֹור וּבָשָׂר תַּלְבִּישֵׁנִי וּבַעֲצָמֹות וְגִידִים תְּסֹכְכֵנִי׃ 11
12ζωὴν δὲ καὶ ἔλεος ἔθου παρ' ἐμοί,
ἡ δὲ ἐπισκοπή σου ἐφύλαξέν μου τὸ πνεῦμα.
And you bestowed upon me life and mercy,
and your oversight has preserved my spirit.
 Thou hast granted me life and steadfast love;
and thy care has preserved my spirit.
חַיִּים וָחֶסֶד עָשִׂיתָ עִמָּדִי וּפְקֻדָּתְךָ שָׁמְרָה רוּחִי׃ 12
13ταῦτα ἔχων ἐν σεαυτῷ οἶδα ὅτι πάντα δύνασαι,
ἀδυνατεῖ δέ σοι οὐθέν.
Having these things in yourself,
I know that you can do all things;
for nothing is impossible with you.
 Yet these things thou didst hide in thy heart;
I know that this was thy purpose.
וְאֵלֶּה צָפַנְתָּ בִלְבָבֶךָ יָדַעְתִּי כִּי־זֹאת עִמָּךְ׃ 13
14ἐάν τε γὰρ ἁμάρτω, φυλάσσεις με,
ἀπὸ δὲ ἀνομίας οὐκ ἀθῷόν με πεποίηκας.
And if I should sin, you watch me;
and you have not cleared me from iniquity.
 If I sin, thou dost mark me,
and dost not acquit me of my iniquity.
אִם־חָטָאתִי וּשְׁמַרְתָּנִי וּמֵעֲוֹנִי לֹא תְנַקֵּנִי׃ 14
15ἐάν τε γὰρ ἀσεβὴς ὦ, οἴμμοι·
ἐάν τε ὦ δίκαιος, οὐ δύναμαι ἀνακύψαι,
πλήρης γὰρ ἀτιμίας εἰμί.
Or if I should be ungodly, woe is me:
and if I should be righteous,
I cannot lift myself up,
for I am full of dishonour.
 If I am wicked, woe to me!
If I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head,
for I am filled with disgrace and look upon my affliction.
אִם־רָשַׁעְתִּי אַלְלַי לִי וְצָדַקְתִּי לֹא־אֶשָּׂא רֹאשִׁי שְׂבַע קָלֹון וּרְאֵה עָנְיִי׃ 15
16ἀγρεύομαι γὰρ ὥσπερ λέων εἰς σφαγήν,
πάλιν δὲ μεταβαλὼν δεινῶς με ὀλέκεις
For I am hunted like a lion for slaughter;
for again you have changed and are destroying me terribly;
 And if I lift myself up, thou dost hunt me like a lion,
and again work wonders against me;
וְיִגְאֶה כַּשַּׁחַל תְּצוּדֵנִי וְתָשֹׁב תִּתְפַּלָּא־בִי׃ 16
17ἐπανακαινίζων ἐπ' ἐμὲ τὴν ἔτασίν μου·
ὀργῇ δὲ μεγάλῃ μοι ἐχρήσω,
ἐπήγαγες δὲ ἐπ' ἐμὲ πειρατήρια.
renewing against me my torture:
and you have dealt with me in great anger,
and you have brought trials upon me.
 thou dost renew thy witnesses against me,
and increase thy vexation toward me;
thou dost bring fresh hosts against me.
תְּחַדֵּשׁ עֵדֶיךָ נֶגְדִּי וְתֶרֶב כַּעַשְׂךָ עִמָּדִי חֲלִיפֹות וְצָבָא עִמִּי׃ 17
18ἵνα τί οὖν ἐκ κοιλίας με ἐξήγαγες,
καὶ οὐκ ἀπέθανον, ὀφθαλμὸς δέ με οὐκ εἶδεν,
Why then did you bring me out of the womb?
and why did I not die, and no eye see me,
 "Why didst thou bring me forth from the womb?
Would that I had died before any eye had seen me,
וְלָמָּה מֵרֶחֶם הֹצֵאתָנִי אֶגְוַע וְעַיִן לֹא־תִרְאֵנִי׃ 18
19καὶ ὥσπερ οὐκ ὢν ἐγενόμην;
διὰ τί γὰρ ἐκ γαστρὸς εἰς μνῆμα οὐκ ἀπηλλάγην;
and I become as if I had not been?
for why was I not carried from the womb to the grave?
 and were as though I had not been,
carried from the womb to the grave.
כַּאֲשֶׁר לֹא־הָיִיתִי אֶהְיֶה מִבֶּטֶן לַקֶּבֶר אוּבָל׃ 19
20ἦ οὐκ ὀλίγος ἐστὶν ὁ χρόνος τοῦ βίου μου;
ἔασόν με ἀναπαύσασθαι μικρὸν
Is not the time of my life short?
suffer me to rest a little,
 Are not the days of my life few?
Let me alone, that I may find a little comfort
הֲלֹא־מְעַט יָמַי [כ= יֶחְדָּל] [ק= וַחֲדָל] [כ= יָשִׁית] [ק= וְשִׁית] מִמֶּנִּי וְאַבְלִיגָה מְּעָט׃ 20
21πρὸ τοῦ με πορευθῆναι ὅθεν οὐκ ἀναστρέψω,
εἰς γῆν σκοτεινὴν καὶ γνοφεράν,
before I go whence I shall not return,
to a land of darkness and gloominess;
 before I go whence I shall not return,
to the land of gloom and deep darkness,
בְּטֶרֶם אֵלֵךְ וְלֹא אָשׁוּב אֶל־אֶרֶץ חֹשֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָוֶת׃ 21
22εἰς γῆν σκότους αἰωνίου,
οὗ οὐκ ἔστιν φέγγος οὐδὲ ὁρᾶν ζωὴν βροτῶν.
to a land of perpetual darkness, where there is no light,
neither [can any one] see the life of mortals.
 the land of gloom and chaos,
where light is as darkness."
אֶרֶץ עֵיפָתָה כְּמֹו אֹפֶל צַלְמָוֶת וְלֹא סְדָרִים וַתֹּפַע כְּמֹו־אֹפֶל׃ ף 22
