18ΙΩΒBrenton(Lxx)JOB Revised Standard VersionJOB 18

1Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Βαλδαδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει
Then Baldad the Sauchite answered and said,
Bildad. Jb.18.1-21Then Bildad the Shuhite answered:וַיַּעַן בִּלְדַּד הַשֻּׁחִי וַיֹּאמַר׃ 1
2Μέχρι τίνος οὐ παύσῃ;
ἐπίσχες, ἵνα καὶ αὐτοὶ λαλήσωμεν.
How long will you continue?
forbear, that we also may speak.
 "How long will you hunt for words?
Consider, and then we will speak.
עַד־אָנָה תְּשִׂימוּן קִנְצֵי לְמִלִּין תָּבִינוּ וְאַחַר נְדַבֵּר׃ 2
3διὰ τί ὥσπερ τετράποδα σεσιωπήκαμεν ἐναντίον σου;
For why have we been silent before you like brutes?
 Why are we counted as cattle?
Why are we stupid in your sight?
מַדּוּעַ נֶחְשַׁבְנוּ כַבְּהֵמָה נִטְמִינוּ בְּעֵינֵיכֶם׃ 3
4κέχρηταί σοι ὀργή. τί γάρ;
ἐὰν σὺ ἀποθάνῃς, ἀοίκητος ἡ ὑπ' οὐρανόν;
ἢ καταστραφήσεται ὄρη ἐκ θεμελίων;
Anger has possessed you:
for what if you should die;
would [the earth] under heaven be desolate?
or shall the mountains be overthrown from their foundations?
 You who tear yourself in your anger,
shall the earth be forsaken for you,
or the rock be removed out of its place?
טֹרֵף נַפְשֹׁו בְּאַפֹּו הַלְמַעַנְךָ תֵּעָזַב אָרֶץ וְיֶעְתַּק־צוּר מִמְּקֹמֹו׃ 4
5καὶ φῶς ἀσεβῶν σβεσθήσεται,
καὶ οὐκ ἀποβήσεται αὐτῶν ἡ φλόξ·
But the light of the ungodly shall be quenched,
and their flame shall not go up.
 "Yea, the light of the wicked is put out,
and the flame of his fire does not shine.
גַּם אֹור רְשָׁעִים יִדְעָךְ וְלֹא־יִגַּהּ שְׁבִיב אִשֹּׁו׃ 5
6τὸ φῶς αὐτοῦ σκότος ἐν διαίτῃ,
ὁ δὲ λύχνος ἐπ' αὐτῷ σβεσθήσεται.
His light [shall be] darkness in [his] habitation,
and his lamp shall be put out with him.
 The light is dark in his tent,
and his lamp above him is put out.
אֹור חָשַׁךְ בְּאָהֳלֹו וְנֵרֹו עָלָיו יִדְעָךְ׃ 6
7θηρεύσαισαν ἐλάχιστοι τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ,
σφάλαι δὲ αὐτοῦ ἡ βουλή.
Let the meanest of men spoil his goods,
and let his counsel deceive [him].
 His strong steps are shortened
and his own schemes throw him down.
יֵצְרוּ צַעֲדֵי אֹונֹו וְתַשְׁלִיכֵהוּ עֲצָתֹו׃ 7
8ἐμβέβληται δὲ ὁ ποὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν παγίδι·
ἐν δικτύῳ ἑλιχθείη.
His foot also has been caught in a snare,
[and] let it be entangled in a net.
 For he is cast into a net by his own feet,
and he walks on a pitfall.
כִּי־שֻׁלַּח בְּרֶשֶׁת בְּרַגְלָיו וְעַל־שְׂבָכָה יִתְהַלָּךְ׃ 8
9ἔλθοισαν δὲ ἐπ' αὐτὸν παγίδες·
κατισχύσει ἐπ' αὐτὸν διψῶντας.
And let snares come upon him:
he shall strengthen those that thirst for his destruction.
 A trap seizes him by the heel,
a snare lays hold of him.
יֹאחֵז בְּעָקֵב פָּח יַחֲזֵק עָלָיו צַמִּים׃ 9
10κέκρυπται ἐν τῇ γῇ σχοινίον αὐτοῦ,
καὶ ἡ σύλλημψις αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τρίβων.
His snare is hid in the earth,
and that which shall take him is by the path.
 A rope is hid for him in the ground,
a trap for him in the path.
טָמוּן בָּאָרֶץ חַבְלֹו וּמַלְכֻּדְתֹּו עֲלֵי נָתִיב׃ 10
11κύκλῳ ὀλέσαισαν αὐτὸν ὀδύναι,
πολλοὶ δὲ περὶ πόδας αὐτοῦ ἔλθοισαν ἐν λιμῷ στενῷ.
Let pains destroy him round about,
and let many [enemies] come about him,
 Terrors frighten him on every side,
and chase him at his heels.
סָבִיב בִּעֲתֻהוּ בַלָּהֹות וֶהֱפִיצֻהוּ לְרַגְלָיו׃ 11
12πτῶμα δὲ αὐτῷ ἡτοίμασται ἐξαίσιον.
[vex him] with distressing hunger:
and a signal destruction has been prepared for him.
 His strength is hunger-bitten,
and calamity is ready for his stumbling.
יְהִי־רָעֵב אֹנֹו וְאֵיד נָכֹון לְצַלְעֹו׃ 12
13βρωθείησαν αὐτοῦ κλῶνες ποδῶν,
κατέδεται δὲ τὰ ὡραῖα αὐτοῦ θάνατος.
ἐκραγείη δὲ ἐκ διαίτης αὐτοῦ ἴασις,
σχοίη δὲ αὐτὸν ἀνάγκη αἰτίᾳ βασιλικῇ.
Let the soles of his feet be devoured:
and death shall consume his beauty.
 By disease his skin is consumed,
the first-born of death consumes his limbs.
יֹאכַל בַּדֵּי עֹורֹו יֹאכַל בַּדָּיו בְּכֹור מָוֶת׃ 13
14ἐκραγείη δὲ ἐκ διαίτης αὐτοῦ ἴασις,
σχοίη δὲ αὐτὸν ἀνάγκη αἰτίᾳ βασιλικῇ.
And let health be utterly banished from his tabernacle,
and let distress seize upon him with a charge from the king.
 He is torn from the tent in which he trusted,
and is brought to the king of terrors.
יִנָּתֵק מֵאָהֳלֹו מִבְטַחֹו וְתַצְעִדֵהוּ לְמֶלֶךְ בַּלָּהֹות׃ 14
15κατασκηνώσει ἐν τῇ σκηνῇ αὐτοῦ ἐν νυκτὶ αὐτοῦ,
κατασπαρήσονται τὰ εὐπρεπῆ αὐτοῦ θείῳ.
It shall dwell in his tabernacle in his night:
his excellency shall be sown with brimstone.
 In his tent dwells that which is none of his;
brimstone is scattered upon his habitation.
תִּשְׁכֹּון בְּאָהֳלֹו מִבְּלִי־לֹו יְזֹרֶה עַל־נָוֵהוּ גָפְרִית׃ 15
16ὑποκάτωθεν αἱ ῥίζαι αὐτοῦ ξηρανθήσονται,
καὶ ἐπάνωθεν ἐπιπεσεῖται θερισμὸς αὐτοῦ.
His roots shall be dried up from beneath,
and his crop shall fall away from above.
 His roots dry up beneath,
and his branches wither above.
מִתַּחַת שָׁרָשָׁיו יִבָשׁוּ וּמִמַּעַל יִמַּל קְצִירֹו׃ 16
17τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτοῦ ἀπόλοιτο ἐκ γῆς,
καὶ ὑπάρχει ὄνομα αὐτῷ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον ἐξωτέρω.
Let his memorial perish out of the earth,
and his name shall be publicly cast out.
 His memory perishes from the earth,
and he has no name in the street.
זִכְרֹו־אָבַד מִנִּי־אָרֶץ וְלֹא־שֵׁם לֹו עַל־פְּנֵי־חוּץ׃ 17
18ἀπώσειεν αὐτὸν ἐκ φωτὸς εἰς σκότος.
Let [one] drive him from light into darkness.
 He is thrust from light into darkness,
and driven out of the world.
יֶהְדְּפֻהוּ מֵאֹור אֶל־חֹשֶׁךְ וּמִתֵּבֵל יְנִדֻּהוּ׃ 18
19οὐκ ἔσται ἐπίγνωστος ἐν λαῷ αὐτοῦ,
οὐδὲ σεσῳσμένος ἐν τῇ ὑπ' οὐρανὸν ὁ οἶκος αὐτοῦ,
ἀλλ' ἐν τοῖς αὐτοῦ ζήσονται ἕτεροι.
He shall not be known among his people,
nor his house preserved on the earth.
 He has no offspring or descendant among his people,
and no survivor where he used to live.
לֹא נִין לֹו וְלֹא־נֶכֶד בְּעַמֹּו וְאֵין שָׂרִיד בִּמְגוּרָיו׃ 19
20ἐπ' αὐτῷ ἐστέναξαν ἔσχατοι,
πρώτους δὲ ἔσχεν θαῦμα.
But strangers shall dwell in his possessions:
the last groaned for him, and wonder seized the first.
 They of the west are appalled at his day,
and horror seizes them of the east.
עַל־יֹומֹו נָשַׁמּוּ אַחֲרֹנִים וְקַדְמֹנִים אָחֲזוּ שָׂעַר׃ 20
21οὗτοί εἰσιν οἶκοι ἀδίκων,
οὗτος δὲ ὁ τόπος τῶν μὴ εἰδότων τὸν κύριον.
These are the houses of the unrighteous,
and this is the place of them that know not the Lord.
 Surelt such are the dwellings of the ungodly,
such is the place of him who knows not god."
אַךְ־אֵלֶּה מִשְׁכְּנֹות עַוָּל וְזֶה מְקֹום לֹא־יָדַע־אֵל׃ ס 21
