Job - Chapter: 16

>
16:1Then Job answered and said,
16:2I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all.
16:3Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?
16:4I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.
16:5But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage your grief.
16:6Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased?
16:7But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company.
16:8And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me: and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness to my face.
16:9He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me.
16:10They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me.
16:11God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.
16:12I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.
16:13His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.
16:14He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant.
16:15I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.
16:16My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
16:17Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure.
16:18O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place.
16:19Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.
16:20My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.
16:21O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!
16:22When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.

 

16:1ויען איוב ויאמר׃
16:2שׁמעתי כאלה רבות מנחמי עמל כלכם׃
16:3הקץ לדברי רוח או מה ימריצך כי תענה׃
16:4גם אנכי ככם אדברה לו ישׁ נפשׁכם תחת נפשׁי אחבירה עליכם במלים ואניעה עליכם במו ראשׁי׃
16:5אאמצכם במו פי וניד שׂפתי יחשׂך׃
16:6אם אדברה לא יחשׂך כאבי ואחדלה מה מני יהלך׃
16:7אך עתה הלאני השׁמות כל עדתי׃
16:8ותקמטני לעד היה ויקם בי כחשׁי בפני יענה׃
16:9אפו טרף וישׂטמני חרק עלי בשׁניו צרי ילטושׁ עיניו׃
16:10פערו עלי בפיהם בחרפה הכו לחיי יחד עלי יתמלאון׃
16:11יסגירני אל אל עויל ועל ידי רשׁעים ירטני׃
16:12שׁלו הייתי ויפרפרני ואחז בערפי ויפצפצני ויקימני לו למטרה׃
16:13יסבו עלי רביו יפלח כליותי ולא יחמול ישׁפך לארץ מררתי׃
16:14יפרצני פרץ על פני פרץ ירץ עלי כגבור׃
16:15שׂק תפרתי עלי גלדי ועללתי בעפר קרני׃
16:16פני חמרמרה מני בכי ועל עפעפי צלמות׃
16:17על לא חמס בכפי ותפלתי זכה׃
16:18ארץ אל תכסי דמי ואל יהי מקום לזעקתי׃
16:19גם עתה הנה בשׁמים עדי ושׂהדי במרומים׃
16:20מליצי רעי אל אלוה דלפה עיני׃
16:21ויוכח לגבר עם אלוה ובן אדם לרעהו׃
16:22כי שׁנות מספר יאתיו וארח לא אשׁוב אהלך׃

 

16:1And Job answereth and saith: --
16:2I have heard many such things, Miserable comforters `are' ye all.
16:3Is there an end to words of wind? Or what doth embolden thee that thou answerest?
16:4I also, like you, might speak, If your soul were in my soul's stead. I might join against you with words, And nod at you with my head.
16:5I might harden you with my mouth, And the moving of my lips might be sparing.
16:6If I speak, my pain is not restrained, And I cease -- what goeth from me?
16:7Only, now, it hath wearied me; Thou hast desolated all my company,
16:8And Thou dost loathe me, For a witness it hath been, And rise up against me doth my failure, In my face it testifieth.
16:9His anger hath torn, and he hateth me, He hath gnashed at me with his teeth, My adversary sharpeneth his eyes for me.
16:10They have gaped on me with their mouth, In reproach they have smitten my cheeks, Together against me they set themselves.
16:11God shutteth me up unto the perverse, And to the hands of the wicked turneth me over.
16:12At ease I have been, and he breaketh me, And he hath laid hold on my neck, And he breaketh me in pieces, And he raiseth me to him for a mark.
16:13Go round against me do his archers. He splitteth my reins, and spareth not, He poureth out to the earth my gall.
16:14He breaketh me -- breach upon breach, He runneth upon me as a mighty one.
16:15Sackcloth I have sewed on my skin, And have rolled in the dust my horn.
16:16My face is foul with weeping, And on mine eyelids `is' death-shade.
16:17Not for violence in my hands, And my prayer `is' pure.
16:18O earth, do not thou cover my blood! And let there not be a place for my cry.
16:19Also, now, lo, in the heavens `is' my witness, And my testifier in the high places.
16:20My interpreter `is' my friend, Unto God hath mine eye dropped:
16:21And he reasoneth for a man with God, And a son of man for his friend.
16:22When a few years do come, Then a path I return not do I go.
