Chapter Text

1

So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he seemed just to himself.

Omiserunt autem tres viri isti respondere Job, eo quod justus sibi videretur.

ἡσύχασαν δὲ καὶ οἱ τρεῖς φίλοι αὐτοῦ ἔτι ἀντειπεῖν Ιωβ ἦν γὰρ Ιωβ δίκαιος ἐναντίον αὐτῶν

2

And Eliu the son of Barachel the Buzite of the kindred of Ram, was angry and was moved to indignation: now he was angry against Job, because he said he was just before God.

Et iratus indignatusque est Eliu filius Barachel Buzites, de cognatione Ram : iratus est autem adversum Job, eo quod justum se esse diceret coram Deo.

ὠργίσθη δὲ Ελιους ὁ τοῦ Βαραχιηλ ὁ Βουζίτης ἐκ τῆς συγγενείας Ραμ τῆς Αυσίτιδος χώρας ὠργίσθη δὲ τῷ Ιωβ σφόδρα διότι ἀπέφηνεν ἑαυτὸν δίκαιον ἐναντίον κυρίου

3

And he was angry with his friends, because they had not found a reasonable answer, but only had condemned Job.

Porro adversum amicos ejus indignatus est, eo quod non invenissent responsionem rationabilem, sed tantummodo condemnassent Job.

καὶ κατὰ τῶν τριῶν δὲ φίλων ὠργίσθη σφόδρα διότι οὐκ ἠδυνήθησαν ἀποκριθῆναι ἀντίθετα Ιωβ καὶ ἔθεντο αὐτὸν εἶναι ἀσεβῆ

4

So Eliu waited while Job was speaking because they were his elders that were speaking.

Igitur Eliu expectavit Job loquentem, eo quod seniores essent qui loquebantur.

Ελιους δὲ ὑπέμεινεν δοῦναι ἀπόκρισιν Ιωβ ὅτι πρεσβύτεροι αὐτοῦ εἰσιν ἡμέραις

5

But when he saw that the three were not able to answer, he was exceedingly angry.

Cum autem vidisset quod tres respondere non potuissent, iratus est vehementer.

καὶ εἶδεν Ελιους ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἀπόκρισις ἐν στόματι τῶν τριῶν ἀνδρῶν καὶ ἐθυμώθη ὀργὴ αὐτοῦ

6

Then Eliu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said: I am younger in days, and you are more ancient; therefore hanging down my head, I was afraid to shew you my opinion.

Respondensque Eliu filius Barachel Buzites, dixit : Junior sum tempore, vos autem antiquiores : idcirco, demisso capite, veritus sum vobis indicare meam sententiam.

ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ελιους ὁ τοῦ Βαραχιηλ ὁ Βουζίτης εἶπεν νεώτερος μέν εἰμι τῷ χρόνῳ ὑμεῖς δέ ἐστε πρεσβύτεροι διὸ ἡσύχασα φοβηθεὶς τοῦ ὑμῖν ἀναγγεῖλαι τὴν ἐμαυτοῦ ἐπιστήμην

7

For I hoped that greater age would speak, and that a multitude of years would teach wisdom.

Sperabam enim quod ætas prolixior loqueretur, et annorum multitudo doceret sapientiam.

εἶπα δὲ ὅτι ὁ χρόνος ἐστὶν ὁ λαλῶν ἐν πολλοῖς δὲ ἔτεσιν οἴδασιν σοφίαν

8

But, as I see, there is a spirit in men, and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth understanding.

Sed, ut video, spiritus est in hominibus, et inspiratio Omnipotentis dat intelligentiam.

ἀλλὰ πνεῦμά ἐστιν ἐν βροτοῖς πνοὴ δὲ παντοκράτορός ἐστιν ἡ διδάσκουσα

9

They that are aged are not the wise men, neither do the ancients understand judgment.

Non sunt longævi sapientes, nec senes intelligunt judicium.

οὐχ οἱ πολυχρόνιοί εἰσιν σοφοί οὐδ' οἱ γέροντες οἴδασιν κρίμα

10

Therefore I will speak: Hearken to me, I also will show you my wisdom.

Ideo dicam : Audite me : ostendam vobis etiam ego meam sapientiam.

διὸ εἶπα ἀκούσατέ μου καὶ ἀναγγελῶ ὑμῖν ἃ οἶδα

11

For I have waited for your words, I have given ear to your wisdom, as long as you were disputing in words.

Expectavi enim sermones vestros; audivi prudentiam vestram, donec disceptaremini sermonibus;

ἐνωτίζεσθέ μου τὰ ῥήματα ἐρῶ γὰρ ὑμῶν ἀκουόντων ἄχρι οὗ ἐτάσητε λόγους

12

And as long as I thought you said some thing, I considered: but, as I see, there is none of you that can convince Job, and answer his words.

et donec putabam vos aliquid dicere, considerabam : sed, ut video, non est qui possit arguere Job, et respondere ex vobis sermonibus ejus.

καὶ μέχρι ὑμῶν συνήσω καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἦν τῷ Ιωβ ἐλέγχων ἀνταποκρινόμενος ῥήματα αὐτοῦ ἐξ ὑμῶν

13

Lest you should say: We have found wisdom, God hath cast him down, not man.

Ne forte dicatis : Invenimus sapientiam : Deus projecit eum, non homo.

ἵνα μὴ εἴπητε εὕρομεν σοφίαν κυρίῳ προσθέμενοι

14

He hath spoken nothing to me, and I will not answer him according to your words.

Nihil locutus est mihi : et ego non secundum sermones vestros respondebo illi.

ἀνθρώπῳ δὲ ἐπετρέψατε λαλῆσαι τοιαῦτα ῥήματα

15

They were afraid, and answered no more, and they left off speaking.

Extimuerunt, nec responderunt ultra, abstuleruntque a se eloquia.

ἐπτοήθησαν οὐκ ἀπεκρίθησαν ἔτι ἐπαλαίωσαν ἐξ αὐτῶν λόγους

16

Therefore because I have waited, and they have not spoken: they stood, and answered no more:

Quoniam igitur expectavi, et non sunt locuti : steterunt, nec ultra responderunt :

ὑπέμεινα οὐ γὰρ ἐλάλησαν ὅτι ἔστησαν οὐκ ἀπεκρίθησαν

17

I also will answer my part, and will show my knowledge.

respondebo et ego partem meam, et ostendam scientiam meam.

ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ελιους λέγει

18

For I am full of matter to speak of, and the spirit of my bowels straiteneth me.

Plenus sum enim sermonibus, et coarctat me spiritus uteri mei.

πάλιν λαλήσω πλήρης γάρ εἰμι ῥημάτων ὀλέκει γάρ με τὸ πνεῦμα τῆς γαστρός

19

Behold, my belly is as new wine which wanteth vent, which bursteth the new vessels.

En venter meus quasi mustum absque spiraculo, quod lagunculas novas disrumpit.

ἡ δὲ γαστήρ μου ὥσπερ ἀσκὸς γλεύκους ζέων δεδεμένος ἢ ὥσπερ φυσητὴρ χαλκέως ἐρρηγώς

20

I will speak and take breath a little: I will open my lips, and will answer.

Loquar, et respirabo paululum : aperiam labia mea, et respondebo.

λαλήσω ἵνα ἀναπαύσωμαι ἀνοίξας τὰ χείλη

21

I will not accept the person of man, and I will not level God with man.

Non accipiam personam viri, et Deum homini non æquabo.

ἄνθρωπον γὰρ οὐ μὴ αἰσχυνθῶ ἀλλὰ μὴν οὐδὲ βροτὸν οὐ μὴ ἐντραπῶ

22

For I know not how long I shall continue, and whether after a while my Maker may take me away.

Nescio enim quamdiu subsistam, et si post modicum tollat me factor meus.

οὐ γὰρ ἐπίσταμαι θαυμάσαι πρόσωπον εἰ δὲ μή καὶ ἐμὲ σῆτες ἔδονται
