Chapter 29

Κεφάλαιο 29
|
|
1
|
1
|
|
And Job continued and said in his parable,
|
ΕΤΙ δὲ προσθεὶς ᾿Ιὼβ εἶπε τῷ προοιμίῳ·
|
|
2
|
2
|
|
Oh that I were as in months past, wherein God preserved me!
|
τίς ἄν με θείη κατὰ μῆνα ἔμπροσθεν ἡμερῶν, ὧν με ὁ Θεὸς ἐφύλαξεν;
|
|
3
|
3
|
|
As when his lamp shone over my head; when by his light I walked through darkness.
|
ὡς ὅτε ηὔγει ὁ λύχνος αὐτοῦ ὑπὲρ κεφαλῆς μου, ὅτε τῷ φωτὶ αὐτοῦ ἐπορευόμην ἐν σκότει·
|
|
4
|
4
|
|
As when I steadfastly pursued my ways, when God took care of my house.
|
ὅτε ἤμην ἐπιβρίθων ὁδούς, ὅτε ὁ Θεὸς ἐπισκοπὴν ἐποιεῖτο τοῦ οἴκου μου·
|
|
5
|
5
|
|
When I was very fruitful, and my children were about me;
|
ὅτε ἤμην ὑλώδης λίαν, κύκλῳ δέ μου οἱ παῖδες·
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
when my ways were moistened with butter, and the mountains flowed for me with milk.
|
ὅτε ἐχέοντο αἱ ὁδοί μου βουτύρῳ, τὰ δὲ ὄρη μου ἐχέοντο γάλακτι·
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
When I went forth early in the city, and the seat was placed for me in the streets.
|
ὅτε ἐξεπορευόμην ὄρθιος ἐν πόλει, ἐν δὲ πλατείαις ἐτίθετό μου ὁ δίφρος.
|
|
8
|
8
|
|
The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and all the old men stood up.
|
ἰδόντες με νεανίσκοι ἐκρύβησαν, πρεσβῦται δὲ πάντες ἔστησαν·
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
And the great men ceased speaking, and laid their finger on their mouth.
|
ἁδροὶ δὲ ἐπαύσαντο λαλοῦντες, δάκτυλον ἐπιθέντες ἐπὶ στόματι.
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
And they that heard me blessed me, and their tongue clave to their throat.
|
οἱ δὲ ἀκούσαντες ἐμακάρισάν με, καὶ γλῶσσα αὐτῶν τῷ λάρυγγι αὐτῶν ἐκολλήθη·
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
For the ear heard, and blessed me; and the eye saw me, and turned aside.
|
ὅτι οὖς ἤκουσε καὶ ἐμακάρισέ με, ὀφθαλμὸς δὲ ἰδών με ἐξέκλινε·
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
For I saved the poor out of the hand of the oppressor, and helped the fatherless who had no helper.
|
διέσωσα γὰρ πτωχὸν ἐκ χειρὸς δυνάστου καὶ ὀρφανῷ, ᾧ οὐκ ἦν βοηθός, ἐβοήθησα.
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
Let the blessing of the perishing one come upon me; yea, the mouth of the widow has blessed me.
|
εὐλογία ἀπολλυμένου ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ ἔλθοι, στόμα δὲ χήρας με εὐλόγησε.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
Also I put on righteousness, and clothed myself with judgment like a mantle.
|
δικαιοσύνην δὲ ἐνδεδύκειν, ἠμφιασάμην δὲ κρίμα ἴσα διπλοΐδι.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
I was the eye of the blind, and the foot of the lame.
|
ὀφθαλμὸς ἤμην τυφλῶν, ποὺς δὲ χωλῶν.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
I was the father of the helpless; and I searched out the cause which I knew not.
|
ἐγὼ ἤμην πατὴρ ἀδυνάτων, δίκην δὲ ἣν οὐκ ᾔδειν ἐξιχνίασα·
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
And I broke the jaw-teeth of the unrighteous; I plucked the spoil out of the midst of their teeth.
|
συνέτριψα δὲ μύλας ἀδίκων, ἐκ μέσου τῶν ὀδόντων αὐτῶν ἅρπαγμα ἐξήρπασα.
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
And I said, My age shall continue as the stem of a palm-tree; I shall live a long while.
|
εἶπα δέ· ἡ ἡλικία μου γηράσει ὥσπερ στέλεχος φοίνικος, πολὺν χρόνον βιώσω·
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
My root was spread out by the water, and the dew would lodge on my crop.
|
ἡ ρίζα διήνοικται ἐπὶ ὕδατος, καὶ δρόσος αὐλισθήσεται ἐν τῷ θερισμῷ μου·
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
My glory was fresh in me, and my bow prospered in his hand.
|
ἡ δόξα μου κενὴ μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ, καὶ τὸ τόξον μου ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ πορεύεται.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
Men heard me, and gave heed, and they were silent at my counsel.
|
ἐμοῦ ἀκούσαντες προσέσχον, ἐσιώπησαν δὲ ἐπὶ τῇ ἐμῇ βουλῇ·
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
At my word they spoke not again, and they were very glad whenever I spoke to them.
|
ἐπὶ τῷ ἐμῷ ρήματι οὐ προσέθεντο, περιχαρεῖς δὲ ἐγίνοντο ὁπόταν αὐτοῖς ἐλάλουν·
|
|
23
|
23
|
|
As the thirsty earth expecting the rain, so they waited for my speech.
|
ὥσπερ γῆ διψῶσα προσδεχομένη τὸν ὑετόν, οὕτως οὗτοι τὴν ἐμὴν λαλιάν.
|
|
24
|
24
|
|
Were I to laugh on them, they would not believe it; and the light of my face has not failed.
|
ἐὰν γελάσω πρὸς αὐτούς, οὐ μὴ πιστεύσωσι, καὶ φῶς τοῦ προσώπου μου οὐκ ἀπέπιπτεν·
|
|
25
|
25
|
|
I chose out their way, and sat chief, and dwelt as a king in the midst of warriors, as one comforting mourners.
|
ἐξελεξάμην ὁδὸν αὐτῶν καὶ ἐκάθισα ἄρχων καὶ κατεσκήνουν ὡσεὶ βασιλεὺς ἐν μονοζώνοις ὃν τρόπον παθεινοὺς παρακαλῶν.
