ΙΩΒ - Giobbe - Job 15

LXX	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 υπολαβων δε ελιφας ο θαιμανιτης λεγει	1 And Eliphaz the Themanite, answered, and said:
2 ποτερον σοφος αποκρισιν δωσει συνεσεως πνευματος και ενεπλησεν πονον γαστρος	2 Will a wise man answer as if he were speaking in the wind, and fill his stomach with burning heat?
3 ελεγχων εν ρημασιν οις ου δει εν λογοις οις ουδεν οφελος	3 Thou reprovest him by words, who is not equal to thee, and thou speakest that which is not good for thee.
4 ου και συ απεποιησω φοβον συνετελεσω δε ρηματα τοιαυτα εναντι του κυριου	4 As much as is in thee, thou hast made void fear, and hast taken away prayers from before God.
5 ενοχος ει ρημασιν στοματος σου ουδε διεκρινας ρηματα δυναστων	5 For thy iniquity hath taught thy mouth, and thou imitatest the tongue of blasphemers.
6 ελεγξαι σε το σον στομα και μη εγω τα δε χειλη σου καταμαρτυρησουσιν σου	6 Thy own mouth shall condemn thee, and not I: and thy own lips shall answer thee.
7 τι γαρ μη πρωτος ανθρωπων εγενηθης η προ θινων επαγης	7 Art thou the first man that was born, or wast thou made before the hills ?
8 η συνταγμα κυριου ακηκοας εις δε σε αφικετο σοφια	8 Hast thou heard God's counsel, and shall his wisdom be inferior to thee?
9 τι γαρ οιδας ο ουκ οιδαμεν η τι συνιεις ο ουχι και ημεις	9 What knowest thou that we are ignorant of? what dost thou understand that we know not?
10 και γε πρεσβυτης και γε παλαιος εν ημιν βαρυτερος του πατρος σου ημεραις	10 There are with us also aged and ancient men, much elder than thy fathers.
11 ολιγα ων ημαρτηκας μεμαστιγωσαι μεγαλως υπερβαλλοντως λελαληκας	11 Is it a great matter that God should comfort thee? but thy wicked words hinder this.
12 τι ετολμησεν η καρδια σου η τι επηνεγκαν οι οφθαλμοι σου	12 Why doth thy heart elevate thee, and why dost thou stare with thy eyes, as if they were thinking great things ?
13 οτι θυμον ερρηξας εναντι κυριου εξηγαγες δε εκ στοματος ρηματα τοιαυτα	13 Why doth thy spirit swell against God, to utter such words out of thy mouth ?
14 τις γαρ ων βροτος οτι εσται αμεμπτος η ως εσομενος δικαιος γεννητος γυναικος	14 What is man that he should be without spot, and he that is born of a woman that he should appear just?
15 ει κατα αγιων ου πιστευει ουρανος δε ου καθαρος εναντιον αυτου	15 Behold among his saints none is unchangeable, and the heavens are not pure in his sight.
16 εα δε εβδελυγμενος και ακαθαρτος ανηρ πινων αδικιας ισα ποτω	16 How much more is man abominable, and unprofitable, who drinketh iniquity like water?
17 αναγγελω δε σοι ακουε μου α δη εωρακα αναγγελω σοι	17 I will shew thee, hear me : and I mill tell thee what I have seen.
18 α σοφοι ερουσιν και ουκ εκρυψαν πατερας αυτων	18 Wise men confess and hide not their fathers.
19 αυτοις μονοις εδοθη η γη και ουκ επηλθεν αλλογενης επ' αυτους	19 To whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger hath passed among them.
20 πας ο βιος ασεβους εν φροντιδι ετη δε αριθμητα δεδομενα δυναστη	20 The wicked man is proud all his days, and the number of the years of his tyranny is uncertain.
21 ο δε φοβος αυτου εν ωσιν αυτου οταν δοκη ηδη ειρηνευειν ηξει αυτου η καταστροφη	21 The sound of dread is always in his ears: and when there is peace, he always suspecteth treason.
22 μη πιστευετω αποστραφηναι απο σκοτους εντεταλται γαρ ηδη εις χειρας σιδηρου	22 He believeth not that he may return from darkness to light, looking round about for the sword on every side.
23 κατατετακται δε εις σιτα γυψιν οιδεν δε εν εαυτω οτι μενει εις πτωμα ημερα δε αυτον σκοτεινη στροβησει	23 When he moveth himself to seek bread, he knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.
24 αναγκη δε και θλιψις αυτον καθεξει ωσπερ στρατηγος πρωτοστατης πιπτων	24 Tribulation shall terrify him, and distress shall surround him, as a king that is prepared for the battle.
25 οτι ηρκεν χειρας εναντιον του κυριου εναντι δε κυριου παντοκρατορος ετραχηλιασεν	25 For he hath stretched out his hand against God, and hath strengthened himself against the Almighty.
26 εδραμεν δε εναντιον αυτου υβρει εν παχει νωτου ασπιδος αυτου	26 He hath run against him with his neck raised up, and is armed with a fat neck.
27 οτι εκαλυψεν το προσωπον αυτου εν στεατι αυτου και εποιησεν περιστομιον επι των μηριων	27 Fatness hath covered his face, and the fat hangeth down on his sides.
28 αυλισθειη δε πολεις ερημους εισελθοι δε εις οικους αοικητους α δε εκεινοι ητοιμασαν αλλοι αποισονται	28 He hath dwelt in desolate cities, and in desert houses that are reduced into heaps.
29 ουτε μη πλουτισθη ουτε μη μεινη αυτου τα υπαρχοντα ου μη βαλη επι την γην σκιαν	29 He shall not be enriched, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he push his root in the earth.
30 ουδε μη εκφυγη το σκοτος τον βλαστον αυτου μαραναι ανεμος εκπεσοι δε αυτου το ανθος	30 He shall not depart out of darkness: the flame shall dry up his branches, and he shall be taken away by the breath of his own month.
31 μη πιστευετω οτι υπομενει κενα γαρ αποβησεται αυτω	31 He shall not believe, being vainly deceived by error, that he may be redeemed with any price.
32 η τομη αυτου προ ωρας φθαρησεται και ο ραδαμνος αυτου ου μη πυκαση	32 Before his days be full he shall perish: and his hands shall wither away.
33 τρυγηθειη δε ωσπερ ομφαξ προ ωρας εκπεσοι δε ως ανθος ελαιας	33 He shall be blasted as a vine when its grapes are in the first flower, and as an olive tree that casteth its flower.
34 μαρτυριον γαρ ασεβους θανατος πυρ δε καυσει οικους δωροδεκτων	34 For the congregation of the hypocrite is barren, and fire shall devour their tabernacles, who love to take bribes.
35 εν γαστρι δε λημψεται οδυνας αποβησεται δε αυτω κενα η δε κοιλια αυτου υποισει δολον	35 He hath conceived sorrow, and hath brought forth iniquity, and his womb prepareth deceits.
