41ΙΩΒBrenton(Lxx)JOB Revised Standard VersionJOB 41
1οὐχ ἑόρακας αὐτὸν οὐδὲ ἐπὶ τοῖς λεγομένοις τεθαύμακας;
 Have you not seen him?
and have you not wondered at the things said [of him]?
 Behold, the hope of a man is disappointed;
he is laid low even at the sight of him.
הֵן־תֹּחַלְתֹּו נִכְזָבָה הֲגַם אֶל־מַרְאָיו יֻטָל׃ 1
1aοὐ 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?
 No one is so fierce that he dares to stir him up.
Who then is he that can stand before me?
לֹא־אַכְזָר כִּי יְעוּרֶנּוּ וּמִי הוּא לְפָנַי יִתְיַצָּב׃ 2
2ἢ 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?
 Who has given to me, that I should repay him?
Whatever is under the whole heaven is mine.
מִי הִקְדִּימַנִי וַאֲשַׁלֵּם תַּחַת כָּל־הַשָּׁמַיִם לִי־הוּא׃ 3
3οὐ 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.
 "I will not keep silence concerning his limbs,
or his mighty strength, or his goodly frame.
[כ= לֹא] [ק= לֹו]־אַחֲרִישׁ בַּדָּיו וּדְבַר־גְּבוּרֹות וְחִין עֶרְכֹּו׃ 4
4τίς 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?
 Who can strip off his outer garment?
Who can penetrate his double coat of mail?
מִי־גִלָּה פְּנֵי לְבוּשֹׁו בְּכֶפֶל רִסְנֹו מִי יָבֹוא׃ 5
5πύλας προσώπου αὐτοῦ τίς ἀνοίξει;
κύκλῳ ὀδόντων αὐτοῦ φόβος.
 Who will open the doors of his face?
terror is round about his teeth.
 Who can open the doors of his face?
Round about his teeth is terror.
דַּלְתֵי פָנָיו מִי פִתֵּחַ סְבִיבֹות שִׁנָּיו אֵימָה׃ 6
6τὰ 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.
 His back is made of rows of shields,
shut up closely as with a seal.
גַּאֲוָה אֲפִיקֵי מָגִנִּים סָגוּר חֹותָם צָר׃ 7
7εἷς τοῦ ἑνὸς κολλῶνται,
πνεῦμα δὲ οὐ μὴ διέλθῃ αὐτόν·
 One [part] cleaves fast to another,
and the air cannot come between them.
 One is so near to another
that no air can come between them.
אֶחָד בְּאֶחָד יִגַּשׁוּ וְרוּחַ לֹא־יָבֹוא בֵינֵיהֶם׃ 8
8ἀνὴρ 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.
 They are joined one to another;
they clasp each other and cannot be separated.
אִישׁ־בְּאָחִיהוּ יְדֻבָּקוּ יִתְלַכְּדוּ וְלֹא יִתְפָּרָדוּ׃ 9
9ἐν 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.
 His sneezings flash forth light,
and his eyes are like the eyelids of the dawn.
עֲטִישֹׁתָיו תָּהֶל אֹור וְעֵינָיו כְּעַפְעַפֵּי־שָׁחַר׃ 10
10ἐκ 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.
 Out of his mouth go flaming torches;
sparks of fire leap forth.
מִפִּיו לַפִּידִים יַהֲלֹכוּ כִּידֹודֵי אֵשׁ יִתְמַלָּטוּ׃ 11
11ἐκ μυκτήρων αὐτοῦ ἐκπορεύεται καπνὸς καμίνου καιομένης πυρὶ ἀνθράκων·
 Out of his nostrils proceeds smoke of a furnace burning with fire of coals.
 Out of his nostrils comes forth smoke,
as from a boiling pot and burning rushes.
מִנְּחִירָיו יֵצֵא עָשָׁן כְּדוּד נָפוּחַ וְאַגְמֹן׃ 12
12ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ ἄνθρακες,
φλὸξ δὲ ἐκ στόματος αὐτοῦ ἐκπορεύεται.
 His breath is [as] live coals,
and a flame goes out of his mouth.
 His breath kindles coals,
and a flame comes forth from his mouth.
נַפְשֹׁו גֶּחָלִים תְּלַהֵט וְלַהַב מִפִּיו יֵצֵא׃ 13
13ἐν δὲ τραχήλῳ αὐτοῦ αὐλίζεται δύναμις,
ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ τρέχει ἀπώλεια.
 And power is lodged in his neck,
before him destruction runs.
 In his neck abides strength,
and terror dances before him.
בְּצַוָּארֹו יָלִין עֹז וּלְפָנָיו תָּדוּץ דְּאָבָה׃ 14
14σάρκες 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.
 The folds of his flesh cleave together,
firmly cast upon him and immovable.
מַפְּלֵי בְשָׂרֹו דָבֵקוּ יָצוּק עָלָיו בַּל־יִמֹּוט׃ 15
15ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ πέπηγεν ὡς λίθος,
ἕστηκεν δὲ ὥσπερ ἄκμων ἀνήλατος.
 His heart is firm as a stone,
and it stands like an unyielding anvil.
 His heart is hard as a stone,
hard as the nether millstone.
לִבֹּו יָצוּק כְּמֹו־אָבֶן וְיָצוּק כְּפֶלַח תַּחְתִּית׃ 16
16στραφέντος 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.
 When he raises himself up the mighty are afraid;
at the crashing they are beside themselves.
מִשֵּׂתֹו יָגוּרוּ אֵלִים מִשְּׁבָרִים יִתְחַטָּאוּ׃ 17
17ἐὰν 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.
 Though the sword reaches him, it does not avail;
nor the spear, the dart, or the javelin.
מַשִּׂיגֵהוּ חֶרֶב בְּלִי תָקוּם חֲנִית מַסָּע וְשִׁרְיָה׃ 18
18ἥγηται μὲν γὰρ σίδηρον ἄχυρα,
χαλκὸν δὲ ὥσπερ ξύλον σαθρόν·
 For he considers iron as chaff,
and brass as rotten wood.
 He counts iron as straw,
and bronze as rotten wood.
יַחְשֹׁב לְתֶבֶן בַּרְזֶל לְעֵץ רִקָּבֹון נְחוּשָׁה׃ 19
19οὐ μὴ τρώσῃ αὐτὸν τόξον χάλκειον,
ἥγηται μὲν πετροβόλον χόρτον·
 The bow of brass shall not would him,
he deems a slinger as grass.
 The arrow cannot make him flee;
for him slingstones are turned to stubble.
לֹא־יַבְרִיחֶנּוּ בֶן־קָשֶׁת לְקַשׁ נֶהְפְּכוּ־לֹו אַבְנֵי־קָלַע׃ 20
20ὡς καλάμη ἐλογίσθησαν σφῦραι,
καταγελᾷ δὲ σεισμοῦ πυρφόρου.
 Mauls are counted as stubble;
and he laughs to scorn the waving of the firebrand.
 Clubs are counted as stubble;
he laughs at the rattle of javelins.
כְּקַשׁ נֶחְשְׁבוּ תֹותָח וְיִשְׂחַק לְרַעַשׁ כִּידֹון׃ 21
21ἡ 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.
 His underparts are like sharp potsherds;
he spreads himself like a threshing sledge on the mire.
תַּחְתָּיו חַדּוּדֵי חָרֶשׂ יִרְפַּד חָרוּץ עֲלֵי־טִיט׃ 22
22ἀναζεῖ 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,
 He makes the deep boil like a pot;
he makes the sea like a pot of ointment.
יַרְתִּיחַ כַּסִּיר מְצוּלָה יָם יָשִׂים כַּמֶּרְקָחָה׃ 23
23τὸν 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.
 Behind him he leaves a shining wake;
one would think the deep to be hoary.
אַחֲרָיו יָאִיר נָתִיב יַחְשֹׁב תְּהֹום לְשֵׂיבָה׃ 24
24οὐκ 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.
 Upon earth there is not his like,
a creature without fear.
אֵין־עַל־עָפָר מָשְׁלֹו הֶעָשׂוּ לִבְלִי־חָת׃ 25
25πᾶν 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.
 He beholds everything that is high;
he is king over all the sons of pride."		אֵת־כָּל־גָּבֹהַּ יִרְאֶה הוּא מֶלֶךְ עַל־כָּל־בְּנֵי־שָׁחַץ׃ ס 26
