| וַיַּ֥עַן אֱלִיה֗וּא וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ | א | 1 | Moreover Elihu answered and said: |
| שִׁמְע֣וּ חֲכָמִ֣ים מִלָּ֑י וְ֝יֹדְעִ֗ים הַאֲזִ֥ינוּ לִֽי׃ | ב | 2 | Hear my words, ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge. |
| כִּי־אֹ֭זֶן מִלִּ֣ין תִּבְחָ֑ן וְ֝חֵ֗ךְ יִטְעַ֥ם לֶאֱכֹֽל׃ | ג | 3 | For the ear trieth words, as the palate tasteth food. |
| מִשְׁפָּ֥ט נִבְחֲרָה־לָּ֑נוּ נֵדְעָ֖ה בֵינֵ֣ינוּ מַה־טּֽוֹב׃ | ד | 4 | Let us choose for us that which is right; let us know among ourselves what is good. |
| כִּֽי־אָ֭מַר אִיּ֣וֹב צָדַ֑קְתִּי וְ֝אֵ֗ל הֵסִ֥יר מִשְׁפָּטִֽי׃ | ה | 5 | For Job hath said: 'I am righteous, and God hath taken away my right; |
| עַל־מִשְׁפָּטִ֥י אֲכַזֵּ֑ב אָנ֖וּשׁ חִצִּ֣י בְלִי־פָֽשַׁע׃ | ו | 6 | Notwithstanding my right I am accounted a liar; my wound is incurable, though I am without transgression.' |
| מִי־גֶ֥בֶר כְּאִיּ֑וֹב יִֽשְׁתֶּה־לַּ֥עַג כַּמָּֽיִם׃ | ז | 7 | What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water? |
| וְאָרַ֣ח לְ֭חֶבְרָה עִם־פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן וְ֝לָלֶ֗כֶת עִם־אַנְשֵׁי־רֶֽשַׁע׃ | ח | 8 | Who goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men. |
| כִּֽי־אָ֭מַר לֹ֣א יִסְכָּן־גָּ֑בֶר בִּ֝רְצֹת֗וֹ עִם־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | ט | 9 | For he hath said: 'It profiteth a man nothing that he should be in accord with God.' |
לָכֵ֤ן ׀ אַ֥נֲשֵׁ֥י לֵבָ֗ב שִׁמְע֫וּ לִ֥י חָלִ֖לָה לָאֵ֥ל מֵרֶ֗שַׁע וְשַׁדַּ֥י מֵעָֽוֶל׃
|
י | 10 | Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: {N} Far be it from God, that He should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that He should commit iniquity. |
| כִּ֤י פֹ֣עַל אָ֭דָם יְשַׁלֶּם־ל֑וֹ וּֽכְאֹ֥רַח אִ֝֗ישׁ יַמְצִאֶֽנּוּ׃ | יא | 11 | For the work of a man will He requite unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways. |
| אַף־אָמְנָ֗ם אֵ֥ל לֹֽא־יַרְשִׁ֑יעַ וְ֝שַׁדַּ֗י לֹֽא־יְעַוֵּ֥ת מִשְׁפָּֽט׃ | יב | 12 | Yea, of a surety, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice. |
| מִֽי־פָקַ֣ד עָלָ֣יו אָ֑רְצָה וּמִ֥י שָׂ֝֗ם תֵּבֵ֥ל כֻּלָּֽהּ׃ | יג | 13 | Who gave Him a charge over the earth? Or who hath disposed the whole world? |
| אִם־יָשִׂ֣ים אֵלָ֣יו לִבּ֑וֹ רוּח֥וֹ וְ֝נִשְׁמָת֗וֹ אֵלָ֥יו יֶאֱסֹֽף׃ | יד | 14 | If He set His heart upon man, if He gather unto Himself his spirit and his breath; |
| יִגְוַ֣ע כָּל־בָּשָׂ֣ר יָ֑חַד וְ֝אָדָ֗ם עַל־עָפָ֥ר יָשֽׁוּב׃ | יה | 15 | All flesh shall perish together, and man shall return unto dust. |
| וְאִם־בִּ֥ינָה שִׁמְעָה־זֹּ֑את הַ֝אֲזִ֗ינָה לְק֣וֹל מִלָּֽי׃ | יו | 16 | If now thou hast understanding, hear this; hearken to the voice of my words. |
| הַאַ֬ף שׂוֹנֵ֣א מִשְׁפָּ֣ט יַחֲב֑וֹשׁ וְאִם־צַדִּ֖יק כַּבִּ֣יר תַּרְשִֽׁיעַ׃ | יז | 17 | Shall even one that hateth right govern? And wilt thou condemn Him that is just and mighty-- |
| הַאֲמֹ֣ר לְמֶ֣לֶךְ בְּלִיָּ֑עַל רָ֝שָׁ֗ע אֶל־נְדִיבִֽים׃ | יח | 18 | Is it fit to say to a king: 'Thou art base'? Or to nobles: 'Ye are wicked'?-- |
|
אֲשֶׁ֤ר לֹֽא־נָשָׂ֨א ׀ פְּנֵ֥י שָׂרִ֗ים וְלֹ֣א נִכַּר־שׁ֭וֹעַ לִפְנֵי־דָ֑ל כִּֽי־מַעֲשֵׂ֖ה יָדָ֣יו כֻּלָּֽם׃
|
יט | 19 | That respecteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? {N} For they all are the work of His hands. |
| רֶ֤גַע ׀ יָמֻתוּ֮ וַחֲצ֪וֹת לָ֥יְלָה יְגֹעֲשׁ֣וּ עָ֣ם וְיַעֲבֹ֑רוּ וְיָסִ֥ירוּ אַ֝בִּ֗יר לֹ֣א בְיָֽד׃ | כ | 20 | In a moment they die, even at midnight; {N} the people are shaken and pass away, and the mighty are taken away without hand. |
| כִּי־עֵ֭ינָיו עַל־דַּרְכֵי־אִ֑ישׁ וְֽכָל־צְעָדָ֥יו יִרְאֶֽה׃ | כא | 21 | For His eyes are upon the ways of a man, and He seeth all his goings. |
|
אֵֽין־חֹ֭שֶׁךְ וְאֵ֣ין צַלְמָ֑וֶת לְהִסָּ֥תֶר שָׁ֝֗ם פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃
|
כב | 22 | There is no darkness, nor great darkness, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. |
| כִּ֤י לֹ֣א עַל־אִ֭ישׁ יָשִׂ֣ים ע֑וֹד לַהֲלֹ֥ךְ אֶל־אֵ֝֗ל בַּמִּשְׁפָּֽט׃ | כג | 23 | For He doth not appoint a time unto any man, when he should go before God in judgment. |
| יָרֹ֣עַ כַּבִּירִ֣ים לֹא־חֵ֑קֶר וַיַּעֲמֵ֖ד אֲחֵרִ֣ים תַּחְתָּֽם׃ | כד | 24 | He breaketh in pieces mighty men without inquisition, and setteth others in their stead. |
| לָכֵ֗ן יַ֭כִּיר מַעְבָּֽדֵיהֶ֑ם וְהָ֥פַךְ לַ֝֗יְלָה וְיִדַּכָּֽאוּ׃ | כה | 25 | Therefore He taketh knowledge of their works; and He overturneth them in the night, so that they are crushed. |
| תַּֽחַת־רְשָׁעִ֥ים סְפָקָ֗ם בִּמְק֥וֹם רֹאִֽים׃ | כו | 26 | He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others; |
| אֲשֶׁ֣ר עַל־כֵּ֭ן סָ֣רוּ מֵֽאַחֲרָ֑יו וְכָל־דְּ֝רָכָ֗יו לֹ֣א הִשְׂכִּֽילוּ׃ | כז | 27 | Because they turned aside from following Him, and would not have regard to any of His ways; |
| לְהָבִ֣יא עָ֭לָיו צַֽעֲקַת־דָּ֑ל וְצַעֲקַ֖ת עֲנִיִּ֣ים יִשְׁמָֽע׃ | כח | 28 | So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto Him, and He heareth the cry of the afflicted. |
| וְה֤וּא יַשְׁקִ֨ט ׀ וּמִ֥י יַרְשִׁ֗עַ וְיַסְתֵּ֣ר פָּ֭נִים וּמִ֣י יְשׁוּרֶ֑נּוּ וְעַל־גּ֖וֹי וְעַל־אָדָ֣ם יָֽחַד׃ | כט | 29 | When He giveth quietness, who then can condemn? And when He hideth His face, who then can behold Him? {N} whether it be done unto a nation, or unto a man, alike; |
| מִ֭מְּלֹךְ אָדָ֥ם חָנֵ֗ף מִמֹּ֥קְשֵׁי עָֽם׃ | ל | 30 | That the godless man reign not, that there be none to ensnare the people. |
| כִּֽי־אֶל־אֵ֭ל הֶאָמַ֥ר נָשָׂ֗אתִי לֹ֣א אֶחְבֹּֽל׃ | לא | 31 | For hath any said unto God: 'I have borne chastisement, though I offend not; |
| בִּלְעֲדֵ֣י אֶ֭חֱזֶה אַתָּ֣ה הֹרֵ֑נִי אִֽם־עָ֥וֶל פָּ֝עַ֗לְתִּי לֹ֣א אֹסִֽיף׃ | לב | 32 | That which I see not teach Thou me; if I have done iniquity, I will do it no more'? |
| הַֽמֵעִמְּךָ֬ יְשַׁלְמֶ֨נָּה כִּֽי־מָאַ֗סְתָּ כִּי־אַתָּ֣ה תִבְחַ֣ר וְלֹא־אָ֑נִי וּֽמַה־יָדַ֥עְתָּ דַבֵּֽר׃ | לג | 33 | Shall His recompense be as thou wilt? For thou loathest it, so that thou must choose, and not I; therefore speak what thou knowest. |
| אַנְשֵׁ֣י לֵ֭בָב יֹ֣אמְרוּ לִ֑י וְגֶ֥בֶר חָ֝כָ֗ם שֹׁמֵ֥עַֽ לִֽי׃ | לד | 34 | Men of understanding will say unto me, yea, every wise man that heareth me: |
| אִ֭יּוֹב לֹא־בְדַ֣עַת יְדַבֵּ֑ר וּ֝דְבָרָ֗יו לֹ֣א בְהַשְׂכֵּֽיל׃ | לה | 35 | 'Job speaketh without knowledge, and his words are without discernment.' |
| אָבִ֗י יִבָּחֵ֣ן אִיּ֣וֹב עַד־נֶ֑צַח עַל־תְּ֝שֻׁבֹ֗ת בְּאַנְשֵׁי־אָֽוֶן׃ | לו | 36 | Would that Job were tried unto the end, because of his answering like wicked men. |
| כִּ֥י יֹ֘סִ֤יף עַֽל־חַטָּאת֣וֹ פֶ֭שַׁע בֵּינֵ֣ינוּ יִסְפּ֑וֹק וְיֶ֖רֶב אֲמָרָ֣יו לָאֵֽל׃ ס | לז | 37 | For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God. |
