Κεφάλαιο 15
|
|
1
|
1
|
|
Then Eliphaz the Thæmanite answered and said,
|
ΥΠΟΛΑΒΩΝ δὲ ᾿Ελιφὰζ ὁ Θαιμανίτης λέγει·
|
|
2
|
2
|
|
Will a wise man give for answer a mere breath of wisdom? and does he fill up the pain of his belly,
|
πότερον σοφὸς ἀπόκρισιν δώσει συνέσεως πνεῦμα καὶ ἐνέπλησε πόνον γαστρὸς
|
|
3
|
3
|
|
reasoning with improper sayings, and with words wherein is no profit?
|
ἐλέγχων ἐν ρήμασιν, οἷς οὐ δεῖ, καὶ ἐν λόγοις, οἷς οὐδὲν ὄφελος;
|
|
4
|
4
|
|
Hast not thou moreover cast off fear, and accomplished such words before the Lord?
|
οὐ καὶ σὺ ἀπεποιήσω φόβον, συνετελέσω δὲ ρήματα τοιαῦτα ἔναντι τοῦ Κυρίου;
|
|
5
|
5
|
|
Thou art guilty by the words of thy mouth, neither hast thou discerned the words of the mighty.
|
ἔνοχος εἶ ρήμασι στόματός σου, οὐδὲ διέκρινας ρήματα δυναστῶν.
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
Let thine own mouth, and not me, reprove thee: and thy lips shall testify against thee.
|
ἐλέγξαι σε τὸ σὸν στόμα καὶ μὴ ἐγώ, τὰ δὲ χείλη σου καταμαρτυρήσουσί σου·
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
What! art thou the first man that was born? or wert thou established before the hills?
|
τί γάρ; μὴ πρῶτος ἀνθρώπων ἐγεννήθης; ἢ πρὸ θινῶν ἐπάγης;
|
|
8
|
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?
|
ἦ σύνταγμα Κυρίου ἀκήκοας, ἢ συμβούλῳ σοι ἐχρήσατο ὁ Θεός, εἰς δὲ σὲ ἀφίκετο σοφία;
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
For what knowest thou, that we know not? or what understandest thou, which we do not also?
|
τί γὰρ οἶδας, ὃ οὐκ οἴδαμεν; ἢ τί συνίεις σύ, ὃ οὐ καὶ ἡμεῖς;
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
Truly among us are both the old and very aged man, more advanced in days than thy father.
|
καί γε πρεσβύτης καί γε παλαιὸς ἐν ἡμῖν, βαρύτερος τοῦ πατρός σου ἡμέραις.
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
Thou hast been scourged for but few of thy sins: thou hast spoken haughtily and extravagantly.
|
ὀλίγα ὧν ἡμάρτηκας μεμαστίγωσαι, μεγάλως ὑπερβαλλόντως λελάληκας.
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
What has thine heart dared? or what have thine eyes aimed at,
|
τί ἐτόλμησεν ἡ καρδία σου, ἢ τί ὑπένεγκαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοί σου;
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
that thou hast vented thy rage before the Lord, and delivered such words from thy mouth?
|
ὅτι θυμὸν ἔρρηξας ἔναντι Κυρίου, ἐξήγαγες δὲ ἐκ στόματος ρήματα τοιαῦτα.
|
|
14
|
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?
|
τίς γὰρ ὢν βροτός, ὅτι ἔσται ἄμεμπτος, ἢ ὡς ἐσόμενος δίκαιος γεννητὸς γυναικός;
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
Forasmuch as he trusts not his saints; and the heaven is not pure before him.
|
εἰ κατὰ ἁγίων οὐ πιστεύει, οὐρανὸς δὲ οὐ καθαρὸς ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ;
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
Alas then, abominable and unclean is man, drinking unrighteousness as a draught.
|
ἔα δὲ ἐβδελυγμένος καὶ ἀκάθαρτος ἀνήρ, πίνων ἀδικίας ἴσα ποτῷ·
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
But I will tell thee, hearken to me; I will tell thee now what I have seen;
|
ἀναγγελῶ δέ σοι, ἄκουέ μου· ἃ δὴ ἐώρακα, ἀναγγελῶ σοι,
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
things wise men say, and their fathers have not hidden.
|
ἃ σοφοὶ ἐροῦσι καὶ οὐκ ἔκρυψαν πατέρες αὐτῶν·
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
To them alone the earth was given, and no stranger came upon them.
|
αὐτοῖς μόνοις ἐδόθη ἡ γῆ, καὶ οὐκ ἐπῆλθεν ἀλλογενὴς ἐπ᾿ αὐτούς.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
All the life of the ungodly is spent in care, and the years granted to the oppressor are numbered.
|
πᾶς ὁ βίος ἀσεβοῦς ἐν φροντίδι, ἔτη δὲ ἀριθμητὰ δεδομένα δυνάστῃ,
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
And his terror is in his ears: just when he seems to be at peace, his overthrow will come.
|
ὁ δὲ φόβος αὐτοῦ ἐν ὠσὶν αὐτοῦ· ὅταν δοκῇ ἤδη εἰρηνεύειν, ἥξει αὐτοῦ ἡ καταστροφή.
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
Let him not trust that he shall return from darkness, for he has been already made over to the power of the sword.
|
μὴ πιστευέτω ἀποστραφῆναι ἀπὸ σκότους· ἐντέταλται γὰρ ἤδη εἰς χεῖρας σιδήρου,
|
|
23
|
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.
|
κατατέτακται δὲ εἰς σῖτα γυψίν· οἶδε δὲ ἐν ἑαυτῷ ὅτι μένει εἰς πτῶμα. ἡμέρα δὲ σκοτεινὴ αὐτὸν στροβήσει,
|
|
24
|
24
|
|
Distress also and anguish shall come upon him: he shall fall as a captain in the first rank.
|
ἀνάγκη δὲ καὶ θλῖψις αὐτὸν καθέξει ὥσπερ στρατηγὸς πρωτοστάτης πίπτων.
|
|
25
|
25
|
|
For he has lifted his hands against the Lord, and he has hardened his neck against the Almighty Lord.
|
ὅτι ἦρκε χεῖρας ἐναντίον τοῦ Κυρίου, ἔναντι δὲ Κυρίου παντοκράτορος ἐτραχηλίασεν,
|
|
26
|
26
|
|
And he has run against him with insolence, on the thickness of the back of his shield.
|
ἔδραμε δὲ ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ ὕβρει ἐν πάχει νώτου ἀσπίδος αὐτοῦ,
|
|
27
|
27
|
|
For he has covered his face with his fat, and made layers of fat upon his thighs.
|
ὅτι ἐκάλυψε τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐν στέατι αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐποίησε περιστόμιον ἐπὶ τῶν μηρίων.
|
|
28
|
28
|
|
And let him lodge in desolate cities, and enter into houses without inhabitant: and what they have prepared, others shall carry away.
|
αὐλισθείη δὲ πόλεις ἐρήμους, εἰσέλθοι δὲ εἰς οἴκους ἀοικήτους· ἃ δὲ ἐκεῖνοι ἡτοίμασαν, ἄλλοι ἀποίσονται.
|
|
29
|
29
|
|
Neither shall he at all grow rich, nor shall his substance remain: he shall not cast a shadow upon the earth.
|
οὔτε μὴ πλουτισθῇ, οὔτε μὴ μείνῃ αὐτοῦ τὰ ὑπάρχοντα, οὐ μὴ βάλῃ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν σκιὰν
|
|
30
|
30
|
|
Neither shall he in any wise escape the darkness: let the wind blast his blossom, and let his flower fall off.
|
οὐδὲ μὴ ἐκφύγῃ τὸ σκότος. τὸν βλαστὸν αὐτοῦ μαράναι ἄνεμος, ἐκπέσοι δὲ αὐτοῦ τὸ ἄνθος.
|
|
31
|
31
|
|
Let him not think that he shall endure; for his end shall be vanity.
|
μὴ πιστευέτω ὅτι ὑπομενεῖ, κενὰ γὰρ ἀποβήσεται αὐτῷ·
|
|
32
|
32
|
|
His harvest shall perish before the time, and his branch shall not flourish.
|
ἡ τομὴ αὐτοῦ πρὸ ὥρας φθαρήσεται, καὶ ὁ ράδαμνος αὐτοῦ οὐ μὴ πυκάσῃ·
|
|
33
|
33
|
|
And let him be gathered as the unripe grape before the time, and let him fall as the blossom of the olive.
|
τρυγηθείη δὲ ὡς ὄμβραξ πρὸς ὥρας, ἐκπέσοι δὲ ὡς ἄνθος ἐλαίας.
|
|
34
|
34
|
|
For death is the witness of an ungodly man, and fire shall burn the houses of them that receive gifts.
|
μαρτύριον γὰρ ἀσεβοῦς θάνατος, πῦρ δὲ καύσει οἴκους δωροδεκτῶν.
|
|
35
|
35
|
|
And he shall conceive sorrows, and his end shall be vanity, and his belly shall bear deceit.
|
ἐν γαστρὶ δὲ λήψεται ὀδύνας, ἀποβήσεται δὲ ἑαυτῷ κενά, ἡ δὲ κοιλία αὐτοῦ ὑποίσει δόλον.
|
