Chapter 12
|
Κεφάλαιο 12
|
|
1
|
1
|
|
And Job answered and said,
|
ΥΠΟΛΑΒΩΝ δὲ ᾿Ιὼβ λέγει·
|
|
2
|
2
|
|
So then ye alone are men, and wisdom shall die with you?
|
εἶτα ὑμεῖς ἐστε ἄνθρωποι· ἦ μεθ᾿ ὑμῶν τελευτήσει σοφία.
|
|
3
|
3
|
|
But I also have a heart as well as you.
|
κἀμοὶ μὲν καρδία καθ᾿ ὑμᾶς ἐστι·
|
|
4
|
4
|
|
For a righteous and blameless man has become a subject for mockery.
|
δίκαιος γὰρ ἀνὴρ καὶ ἄμεμπτος ἐγεννήθη εἰς χλεύασμα·
|
|
5
|
5
|
|
For it had been ordained that he should fall under others at the appointed time, and that his houses should be spoiled by transgressors: let not however any one trust that, being evil, he shall be held guiltless,
|
εἰς χρόνον γὰρ τακτὸν ἡτοίμαστο πεσεῖν ὑπὸ ἄλλων, οἴκους τε αὐτοῦ ἐκπορθεῖσθαι ὑπὸ ἀνόμων. οὐ μὴν δὲ ἀλλὰ μηδεὶς πεποιθέτω πονηρὸς ὢν ἀθῷος ἔσεσθαι,
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
even as many as provoke the Lord, as if there were indeed to be no inquisition made of them.
|
ὅσοι παροργίζουσι τὸν Κύριον, ὡς οὐχὶ καὶ ἔτασις αὐτῶν ἔσται.
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
But ask now the beasts, if they may speak to thee; and the birds of the air, if they may declare to thee.
|
ἀλλὰ δὴ ἐρώτησον τετράποδα ἐάν σοι εἴπωσι, πετεινὰ δὲ οὐρανοῦ ἐάν σοι ἀπαγγείλωσιν·
|
|
8
|
8
|
|
Tell the earth, if it may speak to thee: and the fishes of the sea shall explain to thee.
|
ἐκδιήγησαι γῇ, ἐάν σοι φράσῃ, καὶ ἐξηγήσονταί σοι οἱ ἰχθύες τῆς θαλάσσης.
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
Who then has not known in all these things, that the hand of the Lord has made them?
|
τίς οὖν οὐκ ἔγνω ἐν πᾶσι τούτοις ὅτι χεὶρ Κυρίου ἐποίησε ταῦτα;
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
Whereas the life of all living things is in his hand, and the breath of every man.
|
εἰ μὴ ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ψυχὴ πάντων ζώντων καὶ πνεῦμα παντὸς ἀνθρώπου;
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
For the ear tries words, and the palate tastes meats.
|
οὖς μὲν γὰρ ρήματα διακρίνει, λάρυγξ δὲ σῖτα γεύεται.
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
In length of time is wisdom, and in long life knowledge.
|
ἐν πολλῷ χρόνῳ σοφία, ἐν δὲ πολλῷ βίῳ ἐπιστήμη.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
With him are wisdom and power, with him counsel and understanding.
|
παρ᾿ αὐτῷ σοφία καὶ δύναμις, αὐτῷ βουλὴ καὶ σύνεσις.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
If he should cast down, who will build up? if he should shut up against men, who shall open?
|
ἐὰν καταβάλῃ, τίς οἰκοδομήσει; ἐὰν κλείσῃ κατ᾿ ἀνθρώπων, τίς ἀνοίξει;
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
If he should withhold the water, he will dry the earth: and if he should let it loose, he overthrows and destroys it.
|
ἐὰν κωλύσῃ τὸ ὕδωρ, ξηρανεῖ τὴν γῆν· ἐὰν δὲ ἐπαφῇ, ἀπώλεσεν αὐτὴν καταστρέψας.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
With him are strength and power: he has knowledge and understanding.
|
παρ᾿ αὐτῷ κράτος καὶ ἰσχύς, αὐτῷ ἐπιστήμη καὶ σύνεσις.
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
He leads counsellors away captive, and maddens the judges of the earth.
|
διάγων βουλευτὰς αἰχμαλώτους, κριτὰς δὲ γῆς ἐξέστησε.
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
He seats kings upon thrones, and girds their loins with a girdle.
|
καθιζάνων βασιλεῖς ἐπὶ θρόνους καὶ περιέδησε ζώνῃ ὀσφύας αὐτῶν.
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
He sends away priests into captivity, and overthrows the mighty ones of the earth.
|
ἐξαποστέλλων ἱερεῖς αἰχμαλώτους, δυνάστας δὲ γῆς κατέστρεψε.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
He changes the lips of the trusty, and he knows the understanding of the elders.
|
διαλλάσσων χείλη πιστῶν, σύνεσιν δὲ πρεσβυτέρων ἔγνω.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
He pours dishonour upon princes, and heals the lowly.
|
ἐκχέων ἀτιμίαν ἐπ᾿ ἄρχοντας, ταπεινοὺς δὲ ἰάσατο.
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
Revealing deep things out of darkness: and he has brought into light the shadow of death.
|
ἀνακαλύπτων βαθέα ἐκ σκότους, ἐξήγαγε δὲ εἰς φῶς σκιὰν θανάτου.
|
|
23
|
23
|
|
Causing the nations to wander, and destroying them: overthrowing the nations, and leading them away.
|
πλανῶν ἔθνη καὶ ἀπολλύων αὐτά, καταστρωνύων ἔθνη καὶ καθοδηγῶν αὐτά.
|
|
24
|
24
|
|
Perplexing the minds of the princes of the earth: and he causes them to wander in a way they have not known, saying,
|
διαλλάσσων καρδίας ἀρχόντων γῆς, ἐπλάνησε δὲ αὐτοὺς ἐν ὁδῷ, ᾗ οὐκ ᾔδεισαν.
|
|
25
|
25
|
|
Let them grope in darkness, and let there be no light, and let them wander as a drunken man.
|
ψηλαφήσαισαν σκότος καὶ μὴ φῶς, πλανηθείησαν δὲ ὥσπερ ὁ μεθύων.
