| 1 | Then Job answered, and said: | Respondens autem Iob, dixit: | Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ἰὼβ, λέγει, |
| 2 | How long do you afflict my soul, and break me in pieces with words? | Usquequo affligitis animam meam, et atteritis me sermonibus? | Ἕως τίνος ἔγκοπον ποιήσετε ψυχήν μου, καὶ καθαιρεῖτέ με λόγοις; γνῶτε μόνον ὅτι ὁ Κύριος ἐποίησέ με οὕτως. |
| 3 | Behold, these ten times you confound me, and are not ashamed to oppress me. | En decies confunditis me, et non erubescitis opprimentes me. | Καταλαλεῖτέ μου, οὐκ αἰσχυνόμενοί με ἐπίκεισθέ μοι. |
| 4 | For if I have been ignorant, my ignorance shall be with me. | Nempe etsi ignoravi, mecum erit ignorantia mea. | Ναὶ δὴ ἐπʼ ἀληθείας ἐγὼ ἐπλανήθην, παρʼ ἐμοὶ δὲ αὐλίζεται πλάνος· λαλῆσαι ῥῆματα ἃ οὐκ ἔδει, τὰ δὲ ῥήματά μου πλανᾶται καὶ οὐκ ἐπὶ καιροῦ. |
| 5 | But you have set yourselves up against me, and reprove me with my reproaches. | At vos contra me erigimini, et arguitis me opprobriis meis. | Ἔα δὲ, ὅτι ἐπʼ ἐμοὶ μεγαλύνεσθε, ἐνάλλεσθε δέ μοι ὀνείδει. |
| 6 | At least now understand, that God hath not afflicted me with an equal judgment, and compassed me with his scourges. | Saltem nunc intelligite quia Deus non aequo iudicio afflixerit me, et flagellis suis me cinxerit. | Γνῶτε οὖν ὅτι Κύριός ἐστιν ὁ ταράξας, ὀχύρωμα δὲ αὐτοῦ ἐπʼ ἐμὲ ὕψωσεν. |
| 7 | Behold I cry suffering violence, and no one will hear: I shall cry aloud, and there is none to judge. | Ecce clamabo, vim patiens, et nemo audiet; vociferabor, et non est qui iudicet. | Ἰδοὺ γελῶ ὀνείδει, οὐ λαλήσω· κεκράξομαι, καὶ οὐδαμοῦ κρίμα. |
| 8 | He hath hedged in my path round about, and I cannot pass, and in my way he hath set darkness. | Semitam meam circumsepsit, et transire non possum: et in calle meo tenebras posuit. | Κύκλῳ περιῳκοδόμημαι, καὶ οὐ μὴ διαβῶ· ἐπὶ πρόσωπόν μου σκότος ἔθετο. |
| 9 | He hath stripped me of my glory, and hath taken the crown from my head. | Spoliavit me gloria mea, et abstulit coronam de capite meo. | Τὴν δὲ δόξαν ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ ἐξέδυσεν, ἀφεῖλε δὲ στέφανον ἀπὸ κεφαλῆς μου. |
| 10 | He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am lost, and he hath taken away my hope, as from a tree that is plucked up. | Destruxit me undique, et pereo: et quasi evulsae arbori abstulit spem meam. | Διέσπασέ με κύκλῳ καὶ ᾠχόμην, ἐξέκοψε δὲ ὥσπερ δένδρον τὴν ἐλπίδα μου. |
| 11 | His wrath is kindled against me, and he hath counted me as his enemy. | Iratus est contra me furor eius, et sic me habuit quasi hostem suum. | Δεινῶς δέ μοι ὀργῇ ἐχρήσατο, ἡγήσατο δέ με ὥσπερ ἐχθρόν. |
| 12 | His troops have come together, and have made themselves a way by me, and have besieged my tabernacle round about. | Simul venerunt latrones eius, et fecerunt sibi viam per me, et obsederunt in gyro tabernaculum meum. | Ὁμοθυμαδὸν δὲ ἦλθον τὰ πειρατήρια αὐτοῦ ἐπʼ ἐμοὶ, ταῖς ὁδοῖς μου ἐκύκλωσαν ἐγκάθετοι. |
| 13 | He hath put my brethren far from me, and my acquaintance like strangers have departed from me. | Fratres meos longe fecit a me, et noti mei quasi alieni recesserunt a me. | Ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ ἀδελφοί μου ἀπέστησαν, ἔγνωσαν ἀλλοτρίους ἢ ἐμέ· φίλοι δέ μου ἀνελεήμονες γεγόνασιν· |
| 14 | My kinsmen have forsaken me, and they that knew me, have forgotten me. | Dereliquerunt me propinqui mei, et qui me noverant obliti sunt mei. | Οὐ προσεποιήσαντό με οἱ ἐγγύτατοί μου, καὶ οἱ εἰδότες μου τὸ ὄνομα ἐπελάθοντό μου. |
| 15 | They that dwelt in my house, and my maidservants have counted me a stranger, and I have been like an alien in their eyes. | Inquilini domus meae et ancillae meae sicut alienum habuerunt me, et quasi peregrinus fui in oculis eorum. | Γείτονες οἰκίας, θεράπαιναί τε μοῦ, ἀλλογενὴς ἤμην ἐναντίον αὐτῶν. |
| 16 | I called my servant, and he gave me no answer, I entreated him with my own mouth. | Servum meum vocavi, et non respondit: ore proprio deprecabar illum. | Θεράποντά μου ἐκάλεσα, καὶ οὐχ ὑπήκουσε· στόμα δέ μου ἐδέετο. |
| 17 | My wife hath abhorred my breath, and I entreated the children of my womb. | Halitum meum exhorruit uxor mea, et orabam filios uteri mei. | Καὶ ἱκέτευον τὴν γυναῖκά μου, προσεκαλούμην δὲ καλακευων υἱοὺς παλλακίδων μου· |
| 18 | Even fools despise me; and when I gone from them, they spoke against me. | Stulti quoque despiciebant me: et cum ab eis recessissem, detrahebant mihi. | Οἱ δὲ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνά με ἀπεποιήσαντο, ὅταν ἀναστῶ, κατʼ ἐμοῦ λαλοῦσιν. |
| 19 | They that were sometime my counsellors, have abhorred me: and he whom I love most is turned against me. | Abominati sunt me quondam consiliarii mei, et quem maxime diligebam, aversatus est me. | Ἐβδελύξαντό με οἱ ἰδόντες με· οὓς δὴ ἠγαπήκειν, ἐπανέστησάν μοι. |
| 20 | The flesh being consumed. My bone hath cleaved to my skin, and nothing but lips are left about my teeth. | Pelli meae, consumptis carnibus, adhaesit os meum, et derelicta sunt tantummodo labia circa dentes meos. | Ἐν δέρματί μου ἐσάπησαν αἱ σάρκες μου, τὰ δὲ ὀστᾶ μου ἐν ὀδοῦσιν ἔχεται. |
| 21 | Have pity on me, have pity on me, at least you my friends, because the hand of the Lord hath touched me. | Miseremini mei, miseremini mei saltem vos, amici mei, quia manus Domini tetigit me. | Ἐλεήσατέ με, ἐλεήσατέ με, ὦ φίλοι, χεὶρ γὰρ Κυρίου ἡ ἁψαμένη μου ἐστί. |
| 22 | Why do you persecute me as God, and glut yourselves with my flesh? | Quare persequimini me sicut Deus, et carnibus meis saturamini? | Διατί με διώκετε ὥσπερ καὶ ὁ Κύριος; ἀπὸ δὲ σαρκῶν μου οὐκ ἐμπίπλασθε; |
| 23 | Who will grant me that my words may be written? Who will grant me that they may be marked down in a book? | Quis mihi tribuat ut scribantur sermones mei? quis mihi det ut exarentur in libro | Τίς γὰρ ἂν δοίη γραφῆναι τὰ ῥήματά μου, τεθῆναι δὲ αὐτὰ ἐν βιβλίῳ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, |
| 24 | With an iron pen and in a plate of lead, or else be graven with an instrument in flint stone. | stylo ferreo et plumbi lamina, vel celte sculpantur in silice? | ἐν γραφείῳ σιδηρῷ καὶ μολίβῳ, ἢ ἐν πέτραις ἐγγλυφῆναι; |
| 25 | For I know that my Redeemer liveth, and in the last day I shall rise out of the earth. | Scio enim quod redemptor meus vivit, et in novissimo die de terra surrecturus sum: | Οἶδα γὰρ ὅτι ἀένναός ἐστιν ὁ ἐκλύειν με μέλλων, |
| 26 | And I shall be clothed again with my skin, and in my flesh I will see my God. | et rursum circumdabor pelle mea, et in carne mea videbo Deum meum: | ἐπὶ γῆς ἀναστῆσαι τὸ δέρμα μου τὸ ἀναντλοῦν ταῦτα· παρὰ γὰρ Κυρίου ταῦτά μοι συνετελέσθη, |
| 27 | Whom I myself shall see, and my eyes shall behold, and not another: this my hope is laid up in my bosom. | quem visurus sum ego ipse, et oculi mei conspecturi sunt, et non alius: reposita est haec spes mea in sinu meo. | ἃ ἐγὼ ἐμαυτῷ συνεπίσταμαι, ἃ ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου ἑώρακε, καὶ οὐκ ἄλλος, πάντα δέ μοι συντετέλεσται ἐν κόλπῳ. |
| 28 | Why then do you say now: Let us persecute him, and let us find occasion of word against him? | Quare ergo nunc dicitis: Persequamur eum, et radicem verbi inveniamus contra eum? | Εἰ δὲ καὶ ἐρεῖτε, τί ἐροῦμεν ἔναντι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ῥίζαν λόγου εὑρήσομεν ἐν αὐτῷ; |
| 29 | Flee then from the face of the sword, for the sword is the revenger of iniquities: and know ye that there is judgment. | Fugite ergo a facie gladii, quoniam ultor iniquitatum gladius est: et scitote esse iudicium. | Εὐλαβήθητε δὴ καὶ ὑμεῖς ἀπὸ ἐπικαλύμματος, θυμὸς γὰρ ἐπʼ ἀνόμους ἐπελεύσεται· καὶ τότε γνώσονται, ποῦ ἐστιν αὐτῶν ἡ ὕλη |
