32ΙΩΒBrenton(Lxx)JOB Revised Standard VersionJOB 32
1Ἡσύχασαν δὲ καὶ οἱ τρεῖς φίλοι αὐτοῦ ἔτι ἀντειπεῖν Ιωβ·
ἦν γὰρ Ιωβ δίκαιος ἐναντίον αὐτῶν.		 And his three friends also ceased any longer to answer Job:
for Job was righteous before them.
Elihu's speech. Jb.32.1-37.24So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.וַיִּשְׁבְּתוּ שְׁלֹשֶׁת הָאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה מֵעֲנֹות אֶת־אִיֹּוב כִּי הוּא צַדִּיק בְּעֵינָיו׃ ף 1
2ὠργίσθη δὲ Ελιους ὁ τοῦ Βαραχιηλ ὁ Βουζίτης ἐκ τῆς συγγενείας Ραμ τῆς Αυσίτιδος χώρας,
ὠργίσθη δὲ τῷ Ιωβ σφόδρα, διότι ἀπέφηνεν ἑαυτὸν δίκαιον ἐναντίον Κυρίου·		 Then Elius the son of Barachiel, the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram, of the country of Ausis, was angered:
and he was very angry with Job, because he justified himself before the Lord.
 Then Eli'hu the son of Bar'achel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, became angry. He was angry at Job because he justified himself rather than God;וַיִּחַר אַף אֱלִיהוּא בֶן־בַּרַכְאֵל הַבּוּזִי מִמִּשְׁפַּחַת רָם בְּאִיֹּוב חָרָה אַפֹּו עַל־צַדְּקֹו נַפְשֹׁו מֵאֱלֹהִים׃ 2
3καὶ κατὰ τῶν τριῶν δὲ φίλων ὠργίσθη σφόδρα,
διότι οὐκ ἠδυνήθησαν ἀποκριθῆναι ἀντίθετα Ιωβ καὶ ἔθεντο αὐτὸν εἶναι ἀσεβῆ.		 And he was also very angry with [his] three friends,
because they were not able to return answers to Job,
yet set him down for an ungodly man.
 he was angry also at Job's three friends because they had found no answer, although they had declared Job to be in the wrong.וּבִשְׁלֹשֶׁת רֵעָיו חָרָה אַפֹּו עַל אֲשֶׁר לֹא־מָצְאוּ מַעֲנֶה וַיַּרְשִׁיעוּ אֶת־אִיֹּוב׃ 3
4Ελιους δὲ ὑπέμεινεν δοῦναι ἀπόκρισιν Ιωβ,
ὅτι πρεσβύτεροι αὐτοῦ εἰσιν ἡμέραις.		 But Elius had forborne to give an answer to Job,
because they were older than he.
 Now Eli'hu had waited to speak to Job because they were older than he.וֶאֱלִיהוּ חִכָּה אֶת־אִיֹּוב בִּדְבָרִים כִּי זְקֵנִים־הֵמָּה מִמֶּנּוּ לְיָמִים׃ 4
5καὶ εἶδεν Ελιους ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἀπόκρισις ἐν στόματι τῶν τριῶν ἀνδρῶν,
καὶ ἐθυμώθη ὀργὴ αὐτοῦ.		 And Elius saw that there was no answer in the mouth of the three men;
and he was angered in his wrath.
 And when Eli'hu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, he became angry.וַיַּרְא אֱלִיהוּא כִּי אֵין מַעֲנֶה בְּפִי שְׁלֹשֶׁת הָאֲנָשִׁים וַיִּחַר אַפֹּו׃ ף 5
6ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ελιους ὁ τοῦ Βαραχιηλ ὁ Βουζίτης εἶπεν
Νεώτερος μέν εἰμι τῷ χρόνῳ, ὑμεῖς δέ ἐστε πρεσβύτεροι·
διὸ ἡσύχασα φοβηθεὶς τοῦ ὑμῖν ἀναγγεῖλαι τὴν ἐμαυτοῦ ἐπιστήμην·
 And Elius the Buzite the son of Barachiel answered and said,
I am younger in age, and you are older, so I kept silence,
fearing to declare to you my own knowledge.
 And Eli'hu the son of Bar'achel the Buzite answered:
"I am young in years, and you are aged;
therefore I was timid and afraid to declare my opinion to you.
וַיַּעַן אֱלִיהוּא בֶן־בַּרַכְאֵל הַבּוּזִי וַיֹּאמַר
    צָעִיר אֲנִי לְיָמִים וְאַתֶּם יְשִׁישִׁים
    עַל־כֵּן זָחַלְתִּי וָאִירָא מֵחַוֹּת דֵּעִי אֶתְכֶם׃
6
7εἶπα δὲ ὅτι Ὁ χρόνος ἐστὶν ὁ λαλῶν,
ἐν πολλοῖς δὲ ἔτεσιν οἴδασιν σοφίαν.
 And I said, It is not time that speaks,
though in many years [men] know wisdom:
 I said, 'Let days speak,
and many years teach wisdom.'
אָמַרְתִּי יָמִים יְדַבֵּרוּ וְרֹב שָׁנִים יֹדִיעוּ חָכְמָה׃ 7
8ἀλλὰ πνεῦμά ἐστιν ἐν βροτοῖς,
πνοὴ δὲ παντοκράτορός ἐστιν ἡ διδάσκουσα·
 but there is a spirit in mortals;
and the inspiration of the Almighty is hat which teaches.
 But it is the spirit in a man,
the breath of the Almighty, that makes him understand.
אָכֵן רוּחַ־הִיא בֶאֱנֹושׁ וְנִשְׁמַת שַׁדַּי תְּבִינֵם׃ 8
9οὐχ οἱ πολυχρόνιοί εἰσιν σοφοί,
οὐδ' οἱ γέροντες οἴδασιν κρίμα.
 The long-lived are not wise [as such];
neither do the aged know judgment.
 It is not the old that are wise,
nor the aged that understand what is right.
לֹא־רַבִּים יֶחְכָּמוּ וּזְקֵנִים יָבִינוּ מִשְׁפָּט׃ 9
10διὸ εἶπα Ἀκούσατέ μου,
καὶ ἀναγγελῶ ὑμῖν ἃ οἶδα·
 Why I said, Hear me,
and I will tell you what I know.
 Therefore I say, 'Listen to me;
let me also declare my opinion.'
לָכֵן אָמַרְתִּי שִׁמְעָה־לִּי אֲחַוֶּה דֵּעִי אַף־אָנִי׃ 10
11ἐνωτίζεσθέ μου τὰ ῥήματα·
ἐρῶ γὰρ ὑμῶν ἀκουόντων,
ἄχρι οὗ ἐτάσητε λόγους.
 Listen to my words;
for I will speak in your hearing,
until you shall have tried [the matter] with words:
 "Behold, I waited for your words,
I listened for your wise sayings,
while you searched out what to say.
הֵן הֹוחַלְתִּי לְדִבְרֵיכֶם אָזִין עַד־תְּבוּנֹתֵיכֶמ
עַד־תַּחְקְרוּן מִלִּין׃		 11
12καὶ μέχρι ὑμῶν συνήσω,
καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἦν τῷ Ιωβ ἐλέγχων,
ἀνταποκρινόμενος ῥήματα αὐτοῦ ἐξ ὑμῶν,
 and I shall understand as far as you;
and, behold, there was no one of you
that answered Job his words in argument,
 I gave you my attention, and, behold,
there was none that confuted Job,
or that answered his words, among you.
וְעָדֵיכֶם אֶתְבֹּוןָן וְהִנֵּה אֵין לְאִיֹּוב מֹוכִיחַ עֹונֶה אֲמָרָיו םִכֶּם׃ 12
13ἵνα μὴ εἴπητε Εὕρομεν σοφίαν κυρίῳ προσθέμενοι·
 lest you should say,
We have found that we have added wisdom to the Lord.
 Beware lest you say, 'We have found wisdom;
God may vanquish him, not man.'
פֶּן־תֹּאמְרוּ מָצָאנוּ חָכְמָה אֵל יִדְּפֶנּוּ לֹא־אִישׁ׃ 13
14ἀνθρώπῳ δὲ ἐπετρέψατε λαλῆσαι τοιαῦτα ῥήματα. -
 And you have commissioned a man to speak such words.
 He has not directed his words against me,
and I will not answer him with your speeches.
וְלֹא־עָרַךְ אֵלַי מִלִּין וּבְאִמְרֵיכֶם לֹא אֲשִׁיבֶנּוּ׃ 14
15ἐπτοήθησαν, οὐκ ἀπεκρίθησαν ἔτι,
ἐπαλαίωσαν ἐξ αὐτῶν λόγους.
 They were afraid, they answered no longer;
they gave up their speaking.
 "They are discomfited, they answer no more;
they have not a word to say.
חַתּוּ לֹא־עָנוּ עֹוד הֶעְתִּיקוּ מֵהֶם מִלִּים׃ 15
16ὑπέμεινα, οὐ γὰρ ἐλάλησαν·
ὅτι ἔστησαν, οὐκ ἀπεκρίθησαν.
 I waited, (for I had not spoken,)
because they stood still, they answered not.
 And shall I wait, because they do not speak,
because they stand there, and answer no more?
וְהֹוחַלְתִּי כִּי־לֹא יְדַבֵּרוּ כִּי עָמְדוּ לֹא־עָנוּ עֹוד׃ 16
17Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ελιους λέγει
 And Elius continued,
and said, I will again speak,
 I also will give my answer;
I also will declare my opinion.
אַעֲנֶה אַף־אֲנִי חֶלְקִי אֲחַוֶּה דֵעִי אַף־אָנִי׃ 17
18Πάλιν λαλήσω· πλήρης γάρ εἰμι ῥημάτων,
ὀλέκει γάρ με τὸ πνεῦμα τῆς γαστρός·
 for I am full of words,
for the spirit of my belly destroys me.
 For I am full of words,
the spirit within me constrains me.
כִּי מָלֵתִי מִלִּים הֱצִיקַתְנִי רוּחַ בִּטְנִי׃ 18
19ἡ δὲ γαστήρ μου ὥσπερ ἀσκὸς γλεύκους ζέων δεδεμένος,
ἢ ὥσπερ φυσητὴρ χαλκέως ἐρρηγώς.
 And my belly is as a skin of sweet wine,
bound up [and] ready to burst;
or as a brazier's labouring bellows.
 Behold, my heart is like wine that has no vent;
like new wineskins, it is ready to burst.
הִנֵּה־בִטְנִי כְּיַיִן לֹא־יִפָּתֵחַ כְּאֹבֹות חֲדָשִׁים יִבָּקֵעַ׃ 19
20λαλήσω, ἵνα ἀναπαύσωμαι ἀνοίξας τὰ χείλη·
 I will speak, that I may open my lips and relieve myself.
 I must speak, that I may find relief;
I must open my lips and answer.
אֲדַבְּרָה וְיִרְוַח־לִי אֶפְתַּח שְׂפָתַי וְאֶעֱנֶה׃ 20
21ἄνθρωπον γὰρ οὐ μὴ αἰσχυνθῶ,
ἀλλὰ μὴν οὐδὲ βροτὸν οὐ μὴ ἐντραπῶ·
 For truly I will not be awed because of man,
nor indeed will I be confounded before a mortal.
 I will not show partiality to any person
or use flattery toward any man.
אַל־נָא אֶשָּׂא פְנֵי־אִישׁ וְאֶל־אָדָם לֹא אֲכַנֶּה׃ 21
22οὐ γὰρ ἐπίσταμαι θαυμάσαι πρόσωπον·
εἰ δὲ μή, καὶ ἐμὲ σῆτες ἔδονται.
 For I know not how to respect persons:
and if otherwise, even the moths would eat me.
 For I do not know how to flatter,
else would my Maker soon put a stop to me.		כִּי לֹא יָדַעְתִּי אֲכַנֶּה כִּמְעַט יִשָּׂאֵנִי עֹשֵׂנִי׃ 22
