Job - Chapter: 6

>
6:1But Job answered and said,
6:2Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!
6:3For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up.
6:4For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.
6:5Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?
6:6Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
6:7The things that my soul refused to touch are as my sorrowful meat.
6:8Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant me the thing that I long for!
6:9Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
6:10Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
6:11What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end, that I should prolong my life?
6:12Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of brass?
6:13Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?
6:14To him that is afflicted pity should be shewed from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.
6:15My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the stream of brooks they pass away;
6:16Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow is hid:
6:17What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
6:18The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish.
6:19The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them.
6:20They were confounded because they had hoped; they came thither, and were ashamed.
6:21For now ye are nothing; ye see my casting down, and are afraid.
6:22Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance?
6:23Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?
6:24Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
6:25How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?
6:26Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind?
6:27Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend.
6:28Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie.
6:29Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness is in it.
6:30Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?

 

6:1ויען איוב ויאמר׃
6:2לו שׁקול ישׁקל כעשׂי והיתי במאזנים ישׂאו יחד׃
6:3כי עתה מחול ימים יכבד על כן דברי לעו׃
6:4כי חצי שׁדי עמדי אשׁר חמתם שׁתה רוחי בעותי אלוה יערכוני׃
6:5הינהק פרא עלי דשׁא אם יגעה שׁור על בלילו׃
6:6היאכל תפל מבלי מלח אם ישׁ טעם בריר חלמות׃
6:7מאנה לנגוע נפשׁי המה כדוי לחמי׃
6:8מי יתן תבוא שׁאלתי ותקותי יתן אלוה׃
6:9ויאל אלוה וידכאני יתר ידו ויבצעני׃
6:10ותהי עוד נחמתי ואסלדה בחילה לא יחמול כי לא כחדתי אמרי קדושׁ׃
6:11מה כחי כי איחל ומה קצי כי אאריך נפשׁי׃
6:12אם כח אבנים כחי אם בשׂרי נחושׁ׃
6:13האם אין עזרתי בי ותשׁיה נדחה ממני׃
6:14למס מרעהו חסד ויראת שׁדי יעזוב׃
6:15אחי בגדו כמו נחל כאפיק נחלים יעברו׃
6:16הקדרים מני קרח עלימו יתעלם שׁלג׃
6:17בעת יזרבו נצמתו בחמו נדעכו ממקומם׃
6:18ילפתו ארחות דרכם יעלו בתהו ויאבדו׃
6:19הביטו ארחות תמא הליכת שׁבא קוו׃
6:20בשׁו כי בטח באו עדיה ויחפרו׃
6:21כי עתה הייתם לא תראו חתת ותיראו׃
6:22הכי אמרתי הבו לי ומכחכם שׁחדו בעדי׃
6:23ומלטוני מיד צר ומיד עריצים תפדוני׃
6:24הורוני ואני אחרישׁ ומה שׁגיתי הבינו׃
6:25מה נמרצו אמרי ישׁר ומה יוכיח הוכח מכם׃
6:26הלהוכח מלים תחשׁבו ולרוח אמרי נאשׁ׃
6:27אף על יתום תפילו ותכרו על ריעכם׃
6:28ועתה הואילו פנו בי ועל פניכם אם אכזב׃
6:29שׁבו נא אל תהי עולה ושׁבי עוד צדקי׃
6:30הישׁ בלשׁוני עולה אם חכי לא יבין הוות׃

 

6:1And Job answereth and saith: --
6:2O that my provocation were thoroughly weighed, And my calamity in balances They would lift up together!
6:3For now, than the sands of the sea it is heavier, Therefore my words have been rash.
6:4For arrows of the Mighty `are' with me, Whose poison is drinking up my spirit. Terrors of God array themselves `for' me!
6:5Brayeth a wild ass over tender grass? Loweth an ox over his provender?
6:6Eaten is an insipid thing without salt? Is there sense in the drivel of dreams?
6:7My soul is refusing to touch! They `are' as my sickening food.
6:8O that my request may come, That God may grant my hope!
6:9That God would please -- and bruise me, Loose His hand and cut me off!
6:10And yet it is my comfort, (And I exult in pain -- He doth not spare,) That I have not hidden The sayings of the Holy One.
6:11What `is' my power that I should hope? And what mine end That I should prolong my life?
6:12Is my strength the strength of stones? Is my flesh brazen?
6:13Is not my help with me, And substance driven from me?
6:14To a despiser of his friends `is' shame, And the fear of the Mighty he forsaketh.
6:15My brethren have deceived as a brook, As a stream of brooks they pass away.
6:16That are black because of ice, By them doth snow hide itself.
6:17By the time they are warm they have been cut off, By its being hot they have been Extinguished from their place.
6:18Turn aside do the paths of their way, They ascend into emptiness, and are lost.
6:19Passengers of Tema looked expectingly, Travellers of Sheba hoped for them.
6:20They were ashamed that one hath trusted, They have come unto it and are confounded.
6:21Surely now ye have become the same! Ye see a downfall, and are afraid.
6:22Is it because I said, Give to me? And, By your power bribe for me?
6:23And, Deliver me from the hand of an adversary? And, From the hand of terrible ones ransom me?
6:24Shew me, and I -- I keep silent, And what I have erred, let me understand.
6:25How powerful have been upright sayings, And what doth reproof from you reprove?
6:26For reproof -- do you reckon words? And for wind -- sayings of the desperate.
6:27Anger on the fatherless ye cause to fall, And are strange to your friend.
6:28And, now, please, look upon me, Even to your face do I lie?
6:29Turn back, I pray you, let it not be perverseness, Yea, turn back again -- my righteousness `is' in it.
6:30Is there in my tongue perverseness? Discerneth not my palate desirable things?
