¹

Then Eliphaz the Thæmanite answered and said,

¹

Tвэщaвъ же є3ліфaзъ fеманjтинъ, речE:

²

Will a wise man give for answer a mere breath of wisdom? and does he fill up the pain of his belly,

²

є3дA премyдрый дaстъ tвётъ разyменъ на вётръ, и3 нап0лни болёзнію чрeво,

³

reasoning with improper sayings, and with words wherein is no profit?

³

њбличaz глагHлы, и4миже не подобaетъ, и3 словесы2, и4хже ни кaz п0льза;

⁴

Hast not thou moreover cast off fear, and accomplished such words before the Lord?

⁴

Не и3 тh ли tри1нулъ є3си2 стрaхъ; скончaлъ же є3си2 глаг0лы таковы6 пред8 гDемъ;

⁵

Thou art guilty by the words of thy mouth, neither hast thou discerned the words of the mighty.

⁵

Пови1ненъ є3си2 глаг0лwмъ ќстъ твои1хъ, нижE разсуди1лъ є3си2 глаг0лы си1льныхъ.

⁶

Let thine own mouth, and not me, reprove thee: and thy lips shall testify against thee.

⁶

Да њбличaтъ тS ўстA тво‰, ґ не ѓзъ, и3 ўстнЁ твои2 на тS возсвидётелствуютъ.

⁷

What! art thou the first man that was born? or wert thou established before the hills?

⁷

Чт0 бо; є3дA пeрвый t человBкъ рождeнъ є3си2; и3ли2 прeжде холмHвъ сгусти1лсz є3си2;

⁸

Or hast thou heard the ordinance of the Lord? or has God used thee as his counsellor? and has wisdom come only to thee?

⁸

и3ли2 строeніе гDне слhшалъ є3си2; и3ли2 въ совётника тS ўпотреби2 бGъ; и3 на тS (є3ди1наго) ли пріи1де премyдрость;

⁹

For what knowest thou, that we know not? or what understandest thou, which we do not also?

⁹

чт0 бо вёси, є3гHже не вёмы; и3ли2 что2 разумёеши ты2, є3гHже и3 мы2 (не разумёемъ);

¹⁰

Truly among us are both the old and very aged man, more advanced in days than thy father.

¹⁰

И# стaръ и3 дрeвенъ є4сть въ нaсъ, стaршій nтцA твоегw2 дeньми.

¹¹

Thou hast been scourged for but few of thy sins: thou hast spoken haughtily and extravagantly.

¹¹

Мaлw, њ ни1хже согрэши1лъ є3си2, ўsзвленъ є3си2, вельми2 вhше мёры возглаг0лалъ є3си2.

¹²

What has thine heart dared? or what have thine eyes aimed at,

¹²

Что2 дeрзостно бhсть сeрдце твоE; и3ли2 что2 вознес0стэсz џчи твои2;

¹³

that thou hast vented thy rage before the Lord, and delivered such words from thy mouth?

¹³

Ћкw ћрость и3зрhгнулъ є3си2 пред8 гDемъ, и3знeслъ же є3си2 и3зо ќстъ такwвA словесA;

¹⁴

For who, being a mortal, is such that he shall be blameless? or, who that is born of a woman, that he should be just?

¹⁴

Кт0 бо сhй человёкъ ћкw бyдетъ непор0ченъ; и3ли2 ѓки бyдущій прaведникъ рождeнъ t жены2;

¹⁵

Forasmuch as he trusts not his saints; and the heaven is not pure before him.

¹⁵

Ѓще во с™hхъ не вёритъ, нб7о же нечи1сто пред8 ни1мъ,

¹⁶

Alas then, abominable and unclean is man, drinking unrighteousness as a draught.

¹⁶

кольми2 пaче мeрзкій и3 нечи1стый мyжъ, піsй непр†вды, ћкоже питіE.

¹⁷

But I will tell thee, hearken to me; I will tell thee now what I have seen;

¹⁷

Возвэщy же ти2, послyшай менE: ±же нн7э ви1дэхъ, возвэщY ти2,

¹⁸

things wise men say, and their fathers have not hidden.

¹⁸

±же премyдріи рекyтъ, и3 не ўтаи1ша nтцы2 и4хъ,

¹⁹

To them alone the earth was given, and no stranger came upon them.

¹⁹

и5мже є3ди6нымъ данA бhсть землS, и3 не нaйде и3ноплемeнникъ на нS.

²⁰

All the life of the ungodly is spent in care, and the years granted to the oppressor are numbered.

²⁰

ВсE житіE нечести1вагw въ попечeніи, лBта же и3зочтє1на дан† си1льному,

²¹

And his terror is in his ears: just when he seems to be at peace, his overthrow will come.

²¹

стрaхъ же є3гw2 во ўшесёхъ є3гw2: є3гдA мни1тъ ўжE въ ми1рэ бhти, тогдA пріи1детъ нaнь низвращeніе:

²²

Let him not trust that he shall return from darkness, for he has been already made over to the power of the sword.

²²

да не вёруетъ tврати1тисz t тмы2, њсуждeнъ бо ўжE въ рyки желёза,

²³

And he has been appointed to be food for vultures; and he knows within himself that he is doomed to be a carcase: and a dark day shall carry him away as with a whirlwind.

²³

ўчинeнъ же є4сть въ брaшно неsсытємъ: вёсть же въ себЁ, ћкw ждeтъ падeніz, дeнь же тeменъ преврати1тъ є3го2,

²⁴

Distress also and anguish shall come upon him: he shall fall as a captain in the first rank.

²⁴

бэдa же и3 ск0рбь њб8и1метъ є3го2, ћкоже военачaлникъ напреди2 стоsй пaдаетъ,

²⁵

For he has lifted his hands against the Lord, and he has hardened his neck against the Almighty Lord.

²⁵

ћкw вознесE рyцэ на гDа, пред8 гDемъ же вседержи1телемъ њжесточи2 вhю,

²⁶

And he has run against him with insolence, on the thickness of the back of his shield.

²⁶

течe же проти1ву є3мY ўкори1зною въ т0лщи хребтA щитA своегw2:

²⁷

For he has covered his face with his fat, and made layers of fat upon his thighs.

²⁷

ћкw покры2 лицE своE тyкомъ свои1мъ и3 сотвори2 њмeтъ на стeгнахъ: (хвалa же є3гw2 ўкори1зна).

²⁸

And let him lodge in desolate cities, and enter into houses without inhabitant: and what they have prepared, others shall carry away.

²⁸

Да всели1тсz же во градёхъ пустhхъ, вни1детъ же въ д0мы ненаселє1нныz: ґ ±же nни2 ўгот0ваша, и3нjи tнесyтъ.

²⁹

Neither shall he at all grow rich, nor shall his substance remain: he shall not cast a shadow upon the earth.

²⁹

НижE њбогати1тсz, нижE њстaнетъ и3мёніе є3гw2, не и4мать положи1ти на зeмлю сёни,

³⁰

Neither shall he in any wise escape the darkness: let the wind blast his blossom, and let his flower fall off.

³⁰

нижE и3збэжи1тъ тмы2: прозzбeніе є3гw2 да ўсуши1тъ вётръ, и3 да tпадeтъ цвётъ є3гw2:

³¹

Let him not think that he shall endure; for his end shall be vanity.

³¹

да не вёритъ, ћкw стерпи1тъ, тщє1тнаz бо сбyдутсz є3мY.

³²

His harvest shall perish before the time, and his branch shall not flourish.

³²

Посэчeніе є3гw2 прeжде часA растлёетъ, и3 лёторасль є3гw2 не њбли1ственэетъ:

³³

And let him be gathered as the unripe grape before the time, and let him fall as the blossom of the olive.

³³

да њб8имaнъ бyдетъ ћкоже недозрёлаz ћгода прeжде часA, да tпадeтъ же ћкw цвётъ мaсличіz.

³⁴

For death is the witness of an ungodly man, and fire shall burn the houses of them that receive gifts.

³⁴

Послyшество бо нечести1вагw смeрть, џгнь же пожжeтъ д0мы мздои1мцєвъ:

³⁵

And he shall conceive sorrows, and his end shall be vanity, and his belly shall bear deceit.

³⁵

во чрeвэ же пріи1метъ бwлёзни, сбyдетсz же є3мY тщетA,чрeво же є3гw2 понесeтъ лeсть.
