Job 20

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
1 Then Sophar the Naamathite answered, and said:	1 Και απεκριθη Σωφαρ ο Νααμαθιτης και ειπε?
2 Therefore various thoughts succeed one another in me, and my mind is hurried away to different things.	2 Δια τουτο οι στοχασμοι μου με κινουσιν εις το να αποκριθω, και δια τουτο σπευδω.
3 The doctrine with which thou reprovest me, I will hear, and the spirit of my understanding shall answer for me.	3 Ηκουσα την εις εμε ονειδιστικην επιπληξιν, και το πνευμα της συνεσεως μου με καμνει να αποκριθω.
4 This I know from the beginning, since man was placed upon the earth,	4 Δεν γνωριζεις τουτο παλαιοθεν αφ' οτου ο ανθρωπος ετεθη επι της γης,
5 that the praise of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment.	5 οτι ο θριαμβος των ασεβων ειναι ολιγοχρονιος, και η χαρα του υποκριτου στιγμαια.
6 If his pride mount up even to heaven, and his head touch the clouds:	6 Και αν το μεγαλειον αυτου αναβη εις τους ουρανους και η κεφαλη αυτου φθαση εως των νεφελων,
7 In the end he shall be destroyed like a dunghill, and they that has seen him shall say: Where is he?	7 θελει αφανισθη διαπαντος ως κοπρος αυτου? οσοι εβλεπον αυτον θελουσι λεγει, Που εκεινος;
8 As a dream that fleeth away he shall not be found, he shall pass as a vision of the night:	8 θελει πεταξει ως ονειρον και δεν θελει ευρεθη? και, ως ορασις της νυκτος θελει εξαφανισθη.
9 The eyes that had seen him, shall see him no more, neither shall his place any more behold him.	9 Και ο οφθαλμος οστις εβλεπεν αυτον δεν θελει ιδει αυτον πλεον? και ο τοπος αυτου δεν θελει πλεον γνωρισει αυτον.
10 His children shall be oppressed with want, and his hands shall render him his sorrow.	10 Οι υιοι αυτου θελουσι ζητησει την ευνοιαν των πτωχων, και αι χειρες αυτου θελουσιν επιστρεψει τα αγαθα αυτων.
11 His bones shall be filled with the vices of his youth, and they shall sleep with him in the dust.	11 Τα οστα αυτου γεμουσιν απο των αμαρτηματων της νεοτητος αυτου, και θελουσι κοιμηθη μετ' αυτου εν χωματι.
12 For when evil shall be sweet in his mouth, he will hide it under his tongue.	12 Αν και η κακια ηναι γλυκεια εν τω στοματι αυτου, κρυπτη αυτην υπο την γλωσσαν αυτου?
13 He will spare it, and not leave it, and will hide it in his throat.	13 αν και περιθαλπη αυτην και δεν αφινη αυτην, αλλα κρατη αυτην εν τω μεσω του ουρανισκου αυτου?
14 His bread in his belly shall be turned into the gall of asps within him.	14 ομως η τροφη αυτου θελει αλλοιωθη εις τα εντοσθια αυτου? χολη ασπιδων θελει γεινει εν αυτω.
15 The riches which he hath swallowed; he shall vomit up, and God shall draw them out of his belly.	15 Τα πλουτη οσα κατεπιε, θελει εξεμεσει? ο Θεος θελει εκσπασει αυτα απο της κοιλιας αυτου.
16 He shall suck the head of asps, and the viper's tongue shall kill him.	16 Φαρμακιον ασπιδων θελει θηλασει? γλωσσα εχιδνης θελει θανατωσει αυτον.
17 (Let him not see the streams of the river, the brooks of honey and of butter.)	17 Δεν θελει ιδει τους ποταμους, τους ρυακας τους ρεοντας μελι και βουτυρον.
18 He shall be punished for all that he did, and yet shall not be consumed: according to the multitude of his devices so also shall he suffer.	18 Εκεινο, δια το οποιον εκοπιασε, θελει αποδωσει και δεν θελει καταπιει αυτο? κατα την αποκτησιν θελει γεινει η αποδοσις αυτου, και δεν θελει χαρη.
19 Because he broke in and stripped the poor: he hath violently taken away a house which he did not build.	19 Διοτι κατεθλιψεν, εγκατελιπε τους πενητας? ηρπασεν οικιαν, την οποιαν δεν ωκοδομησε.
20 And yet his belly was not filled: and when he hath the things he coveted, he shall not be able to possess them.	20 Βεβαιως δεν θελει γνωρισει αναπαυσιν εν τη κοιλια αυτου? δεν θελει διασωσει ουδεν εκ των επιθυμητων αυτου.
21 There was nothing left of his meat, and therefore nothing shall continue of his goods:	21 Δεν θελει μεινει εις αυτον ουδεν προς τροφην? οθεν δεν θελει ελπισει επι τα αγαθα αυτου.
22 When he shall be filled, he shall be straitened, he shall burn, and every sorrow shall fall upon him.	22 Εν τη πληρει αφθονια αυτου θελει επελθει επ' αυτον στενοχωρια? πασα η δυναμις της ταλαιπωριας θελει επιπεσει επ' αυτον.
23 May his belly be filled, that God may send forth the wrath of his indignation upon him, and rain down his war upon him.	23 Ενω καταγινεται να εμπληση την κοιλιαν αυτου, ο Θεος θελει αποστειλει τον θυμον της οργης αυτου επ' αυτον, και θελει επιβρεξει αυτον κατ' αυτου ενω τρωγει.
24 He shall flee from weapons of iron, and shall fall upon a bow of brass.	24 Ενω φευγει το οπλον το σιδηρουν, το χαλκινον τοξον θελει διαπερασει αυτον.
25 The sword is drawn out, and cometh forth from its scabbard, and glittereth in his bitterness: the terrible ones shall go and come upon him.	25 Το βελος συρεται και διαπερα το σωμα, και η αστραπτουσα ακμη εξερχεται εκ της χολης αυτου. Τρομοι ειναι επ' αυτον,
26 All darkness is hid in his secret places: a fire that is not kindled shall devour him, he shall be afflicted when left in his tabernacle.	26 παν σκοτος κρυπτεται εν τοις ταμειοις αυτου? πυρ ασβεστον θελει κατατρωγει αυτον? οσοι εναπελειφθησαν εν τη σκηνη αυτου θελουσι δυστυχει.
27 The heavens shall reveal his iniquity, and the earth shall rise up against him.	27 Ο ουρανος θελει ανακαλυψει την ανομιαν αυτου? και η γη θελει σηκωθη κατ' αυτου.
28 The offspring of his house shall be exposed, he shall be pulled down in the day of God's wrath.	28 Η περιουσια του οικου αυτου θελει αφανισθη? θελει διαρρευσει εν τη ημερα της κατ' αυτου οργης.
29 This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the inheritance of his doings from the Lord.	29 Αυτη ειναι η παρα του Θεου μερις του ασεβους ανθρωπου, και η κληρονομια η διωρισμενη εις αυτον παρα του Θεου.
