Douai-Rheims Pattloch Bibel
1 He that liveth for ever created all things together. God only shall be justified, and he remaineth an invincible king for ever.1 Der lebt in Ewigkeit, schuf alles insgesamt, der Herr allein steht über allem Urteil.
2 Who is able to declare his works?2 (Vers fehlt)
3 For who shall search out his glorious acts?3 (Vers fehlt)
4 And who shall shew forth the power of his majesty? or who shall be able to declare his mercy?4 Niemand kann geziemend seine Werke kundtun, und wer ergründet seine Wundertaten?
5 Nothing may be taken away, nor added, neither is it possible to find out the glorious works of God:5 Wer kann beschreiben seine Kraft und Größe, und wer beendet je die Zählung seiner Machterweise?
6 When a man hath done, then shall he begin: and when he leaveth off, he shall be at a loss.6 Man braucht nichts wegzunehmen, nichts hinzuzufügen, und unerforschlich bleiben seine Wundertaten.
7 What is man, and what is his grace? and what is his good, or what is his evil?7 Wer fertig ist, steht immer noch am Anfang, und wenn er aufhört, ist er gar verlegen.
8 The number of the days of men at the most are a hundred years: as a drop of water of the sea are they esteemed: and as a pebble of the sand, so are a few years compared to eternity.8 Was ist der Mensch, und wozu ist er nötig? Worin besteht sein Nutzen und worin sein Schaden?
9 Therefore God is patient in them, and poureth forth his mercy upon them.9 Die Zahl der Lebenstage eines Menschen sind hundert Jahre, wenn es viele sind.
10 He hath seen the presumption of their heart that it is wicked, and hath known their end that it is evil.10 Einem Tropfen aus dem Meer und einem Sandkorn gleichen diese kurzen Jahre in der Zeit der Ewigkeit.
11 Therefore bath he filled up his mercy in their favour, and hath shewn them the way of justice.11 Drum ist der Herr mit ihnen so geduldig und schüttet sein Erbarmen aus auf sie.
12 The compassion of man is toward his neighbour: but the mercy of God is upon all flesh.12 Er schaut und weiß, daß schlimm ihr Ende ist, deshalb erzeigt er ihnen große Nachsicht.
13 He hath mercy, and teacheth, and correcteth, as a shepherd doth his hock.13 Nur auf den Nächsten zielt das Mitleid eines Menschen, jedoch auf alle Wesen die Barmherzigkeit des Herrn. Er weist zurecht, erziehet und belehrt und führt zurück gleichwie ein Hirt die Herde.
14 He hath mercy on him that receiveth the discipline of mercy, and that maketh haste in his judgments.14 Selig, die auf sein Erbarmen hoffen, und die entgegennehmen seine Forderungen!
15 My son, in thy good deeds, make no complaint, and when thou givest any thing, add not grief by an evil word.15 Mein Sohn, der Wohltat hänge keinen Makel an, und keiner Gabe Worte, die verletzen!
16 Shall not the dew assuage the heat? so also the good word is better than the gift.16 Macht nicht der Tau die Hitze schwinden? So übertrifft ein gutes Wort die Gabe.
17 Lo, is not a word better than a gift? but both are with a justified man.17 Gewiß, ist nicht ein (gutes) Wort noch besser als die Gabe? Doch beides ziert den Mann, der Gutes tut.
18 A fool will upbraid bitterly: and a gift of one ill taught consumeth the eyes.18 Der Tor spricht lieblos Worte bitterer Schmähung, und des Ergrimmten Gabe macht die Augen trübe.
19 Before judgment prepare thee justice, and learn before thou speak.
20 Before sickness take a medicine, and before judgment examine thyself, and thou shalt find mercy in the sight of God.
21 Humble thyself before thou art sick, and in the time of sickness shew thy conversation.
22 Let nothing hinder thee from praying always, and be not afraid to be justified even to death: for the reward of God continueth for ever.
23 Before prayer prepare thy soul: and be not as a man that tempteth God.
24 Remember the wrath that shall be at the last day, and the time of repaying when he shall turn away his face.
25 Remember poverty is the time of abundance, and the necessities of poverty in the day of riches.
26 From the morning until the evening the time shall be changed, and all these are swift in the eyes of God.
27 A wise man will fear in every thing, and in the days of sine will beware of sloth.
28 Every man of understanding knoweth wisdom, and will give praise to him that findeth her.
29 They that were of good understanding in words, have also done wisely themselves: and have understood truth and justice, and have poured forth proverbs and judgments.
30 Go not after thy lusts, but turn away from thy own will.
31 If thou give to thy soul her desires, she will make thee a joy to thy enemies.
32 Take no pleasure in riotous assemblies, be they ever so small: for their concertation is continual.
33 Make not thyself poor by borrowing to contribute to feasts when thou hast nothing in thy purse : for thou shalt be an enemy to thy own life.
