Job - Chapter: 29


29:1	Moreover Job continued his parable, and said,
29:2	Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me;
29:3	When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness;
29:4	As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;
29:5	When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;
29:6	When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil;
29:7	When I went out to the gate through the city, when I prepared my seat in the street!
29:8	The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and the aged arose, and stood up.
29:9	The princes refrained talking, and laid their hand on their mouth.
29:10	The nobles held their peace, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth.
29:11	When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me:
29:12	Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him.
29:13	The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
29:14	I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
29:15	I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.
29:16	I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.
29:17	And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.
29:18	Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the sand.
29:19	My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch.
29:20	My glory was fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand.
29:21	Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.
29:22	After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.
29:23	And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain.
29:24	If I laughed on them, they believed it not; and the light of my countenance they cast not down.
29:25	I chose out their way, and sat chief, and dwelt as a king in the army, as one that comforteth the mourners.


29:1	ויסף איוב שׂאת משׁלו ויאמר׃
29:2	מי יתנני כירחי קדם כימי אלוה ישׁמרני׃
29:3	בהלו נרו עלי ראשׁי לאורו אלך חשׁך׃
29:4	כאשׁר הייתי בימי חרפי בסוד אלוה עלי אהלי׃
29:5	בעוד שׁדי עמדי סביבותי נערי׃
29:6	ברחץ הליכי בחמה וצור יצוק עמדי פלגי שׁמן׃
29:7	בצאתי שׁער עלי קרת ברחוב אכין מושׁבי׃
29:8	ראוני נערים ונחבאו וישׁישׁים קמו עמדו׃
29:9	שׂרים עצרו במלים וכף ישׂימו לפיהם׃
29:10	קול נגידים נחבאו ולשׁונם לחכם דבקה׃
29:11	כי אזן שׁמעה ותאשׁרני ועין ראתה ותעידני׃
29:12	כי אמלט עני משׁוע ויתום ולא עזר׃
29:13	ברכת אבד עלי תבא ולב אלמנה ארנן׃
29:14	צדק לבשׁתי וילבשׁני כמעיל וצניף משׁפטי׃
29:15	עינים הייתי לעור ורגלים לפסח אני׃
29:16	אב אנכי לאביונים ורב לא ידעתי אחקרהו׃
29:17	ואשׁברה מתלעות עול ומשׁניו אשׁליך טרף׃
29:18	ואמר עם קני אגוע וכחול ארבה ימים׃
29:19	שׁרשׁי פתוח אלי מים וטל ילין בקצירי׃
29:20	כבודי חדשׁ עמדי וקשׁתי בידי תחליף׃
29:21	לי שׁמעו ויחלו וידמו למו עצתי׃
29:22	אחרי דברי לא ישׁנו ועלימו תטף מלתי׃
29:23	ויחלו כמטר לי ופיהם פערו למלקושׁ׃
29:24	אשׂחק אלהם לא יאמינו ואור פני לא יפילון׃
29:25	אבחר דרכם ואשׁב ראשׁ ואשׁכון כמלך בגדוד כאשׁר אבלים ינחם׃


29:1	And Job addeth to lift up his simile, and saith: --
29:2	Who doth make me as `in' months past, As `in' the days of God's preserving me?
29:3	In His causing His lamp to shine on my head, By His light I walk `through' darkness.
29:4	As I have been in days of my maturity, And the counsel of God upon my tent.
29:5	When yet the Mighty One `is' with me. Round about me -- my young ones,
29:6	When washing my goings with butter, And the firm rock `is' with me rivulets of oil.
29:7	When I go out to the gate by the city, In a broad place I prepare my seat.
29:8	Seen me have youths, and they, been hidden, And the aged have risen -- they stood up.
29:9	Princes have kept in words, And a hand they place on their mouth.
29:10	The voice of leaders hath been hidden, And their tongue to the palate hath cleaved.
29:11	For the ear heard, and declareth me happy, And the eye hath seen, and testifieth `to' me.
29:12	For I deliver the afflicted who is crying, And the fatherless who hath no helper.
29:13	The blessing of the perishing cometh on me, And the heart of the widow I cause to sing.
29:14	Righteousness I have put on, and it clotheth me, As a robe and a diadem my justice.
29:15	Eyes I have been to the blind, And feet to the lame `am' I.
29:16	A father I `am' to the needy, And the cause I have not known I search out.
29:17	And I break the jaw-teeth of the perverse, And from his teeth I cast away prey.
29:18	And I say, `With my nest I expire, And as the sand I multiply days.'
29:19	My root is open unto the waters, And dew doth lodge on my branch.
29:20	My honour `is' fresh with me, And my bow in my hand is renewed.
29:21	To me they have hearkened, Yea, they wait, and are silent for my counsel.
29:22	After my word they change not, And on them doth my speech drop,
29:23	And they wait as `for' rain for me, And their mouth they have opened wide `As' for the latter rain.
29:24	I laugh unto them -- they give no credence, And the light of my face cause not to fall.
29:25	I choose their way, and sit head, And I dwell as a king in a troop, When mourners he doth comfort.
