Chapter 8
|
|
1
|
1
|
|
ΥΠΟΛΑΒΩΝ δὲ Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχίτης λέγει·
|
Then Baldad the Sauchite answered, and said,
|
|
2
|
2
|
|
μέχρι τίνος λαλήσεις ταῦτα, πνεῦμα πολυρρῆμον τοῦ στόματός σου;
|
How long wilt thou speak these things, how long shall the breath of thy mouth be abundant in words?
|
|
3
|
3
|
|
μὴ ὁ Κύριος ἀδικήσει κρίνων ἢ ὁ τὰ πάντα ποιήσας ταράξει τὸ δίκαιον;
|
Will the Lord be unjust when he judges; or will he that has made all things pervert justice?
|
|
4
|
4
|
|
εἰ οἱ υἱοί σου ἥμαρτον ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ, ἀπέστειλεν ἐν χειρὶ ἀνομίας αὐτῶν.
|
If thy sons have sinned before him, he has cast them away because of their transgression.
|
|
5
|
5
|
|
σὺ δὲ ὄρθριζε πρὸς Κύριον παντοκράτορα δεόμενος.
|
But be thou early in prayer to the Lord Almighty.
|
|
6
|
6
|
|
εἰ καθαρὸς εἶ καὶ ἀληθινός, δεήσεως ἐπακούσεταί σου, ἀποκαταστήσει δέ σοι δίαιταν δικαιοσύνης·
|
If thou art pure and true, he will hearken to thy supplication, and will restore to thee the habitation of righteousness.
|
|
7
|
7
|
|
ἔσται οὖν τὰ μὲν πρῶτά σου ὀλίγα, τὰ δὲ ἔσχατά σου ἀμύθητα.
|
Though then thy beginning should be small, yet thy end should be unspeakably great.
|
|
8
|
8
|
|
ἐπερώτησον γὰρ γενεὰν πρώτην, ἐξιχνίασον δὲ κατὰ γένος πατέρων·
|
For ask of the former generation, and search diligently among the race of our fathers:
|
|
9
|
9
|
|
χθιζοὶ γάρ ἐσμεν καὶ οὐκ οἴδαμεν, σκιὰ γάρ ἐστιν ἡμῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ὁ βίος.
|
(for we are of yesterday, and know nothing; for our life upon the earth is a shadow:)
|
|
10
|
10
|
|
ἦ οὐχ οὗτοί σε διδάξουσι καὶ ἀναγγελοῦσι καὶ ἐκ καρδίας ἐξάξουσι ρήματα;
|
shall not these teach thee, and report to thee, and bring out words from their heart?
|
|
11
|
11
|
|
μὴ θάλλει πάπυρος ἄνευ ὕδατος ἢ ὑψωθήσεται βούτομον ἄνευ πότου;
|
Does the rush flourish without water, or shall the flag grow up without moisture?
|
|
12
|
12
|
|
ἔτι ὂν ἐπὶ ρίζης καὶ οὐ μὴ θερισθῇ, πρὸ τοῦ πιεῖν πᾶσα βοτάνη οὐχὶ ξηραίνεται;
|
When it is yet on the root, and though it has not been cut down, does not any herb wither before it has received moisture?
|
|
13
|
13
|
|
οὕτως τοίνυν ἔσται τὰ ἔσχατα πάντων τῶν ἐπιλανθανομένων τοῦ Κυρίου· ἐλπὶς γὰρ ἀσεβοῦς ἀπολεῖται.
|
Thus then shall be the end of all that forget the Lord: for the hope of the ungodly shall perish.
|
|
14
|
14
|
|
ἀοίκητος γὰρ αὐτοῦ ἔσται ὁ οἶκος, ἀράχνη δὲ αὐτοῦ ἀποβήσεται ἡ σκηνή.
|
For his house shall be without inhabitants, and his tent shall prove a spider's web.
|
|
15
|
15
|
|
ἐὰν ὑπερείσῃ τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ, οὐ μὴ στῇ· ἐπιλαβομένου δὲ αὐτοῦ, οὐ μὴ ὑπομείνῃ·
|
If he should prop up his house, it shall not stand: and when he has taken hold of it, it shall not remain.
|
|
16
|
16
|
|
ὑγρὸς γάρ ἐστιν ὑπὸ ἡλίου, καὶ ἐκ σαπρίας αὐτοῦ ὁ ράδαμνος αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται.
|
For it is moist under the sun, and his branch shall come forth out of his dung-heap.
|
|
17
|
17
|
|
ἐπὶ συναγωγὴν λίθων κοιμᾶται, ἐν δὲ μέσῳ χαλίκων ζήσεται.
|
He lies down upon a gathering of stones, and shall live in the midst of flints.
|
|
18
|
18
|
|
ἐὰν καταπίῃ, ὁ τόπος ψεύσεται αὐτόν· οὐχ ἑώρακας τοιαῦτα,
|
If God should destroy him, his place shall deny him. Hast thou not seen such things,
|
|
19
|
19
|
|
ὅτι καταστροφὴ ἀσεβοῦς τοιαύτη, ἐκ δὲ γῆς ἄλλον ἀναβλαστήσει.
|
that such is the overthrow of the ungodly? and out of the earth another shall grow.
|
|
20
|
20
|
|
ὁ γὰρ Κύριος οὐ μὴ ἀποποιήσεται τὸν ἄκακον, πᾶν δὲ δῶρον ἀσεβοῦς οὐ δέξεται.
|
For the Lord will by no means reject the harmless man; but he will not receive any gift of the ungodly.
|
|
21
|
21
|
|
ἀληθινῶν δὲ στόμα ἐμπλήσει γέλωτος, τὰ δὲ χείλη αὐτῶν ἐξομολογήσεως·
|
But he will fill with laughter the mouth of the sincere, and their lips with thanksgiving.
|
|
22
|
22
|
|
οἱ δὲ ἐχθροὶ αὐτῶν ἐνδύσονται αἰσχύνην, δίαιτα δὲ ἀσεβοῦς οὐκ ἔσται.
|
But their adversaries shall clothe themselves with shame; and the habitation of the ungodly shall perish.
|
