Job 2

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	GREEK BIBLE
1 Once again the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them.	1 Ημεραν δε τινα ηλθον οι υιοι του Θεου δια να παρασταθωσιν ενωπιον του Κυριου? και μεταξυ αυτων ηλθε και ο Σατανας, δια να παρασταθη ενωπιον του Κυριου.
2 And the LORD said to Satan, "Whence do you come?" And Satan answered the LORD and said, "From roaming the earth and patrolling it."	2 Και ειπεν ο Κυριος προς τον Σαταναν, Ποθεν ερχεσαι; Και ο Σατανας απεκριθη προς τον Κυριον και ειπε, Περιελθων την γην και εμπεριπατησας εν αυτη παρειμι.
3 And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you noticed my servant Job, and that there is no one on earth like him, faultless and upright, fearing God and avoiding evil? He still holds fast to his innocence although you incited me against him to ruin him without cause."	3 Και ειπεν ο Κυριος προς τον Σαταναν, Εβαλες τον νουν σου επι τον δουλον μου Ιωβ, οτι δεν υπαρχει ομοιος αυτου εν τη γη, ανθρωπος αμεμπτος και ευθυς, φοβουμενος τον Θεον και απεχομενος απο κακου; και ετι κρατει την ακεραιοτητα αυτου, αν και με παρωξυνας κατ' αυτου, δια να εξολοθρευσω αυτον ανευ αιτιας.
4 And Satan answered the LORD and said, "Skin for skin! All that a man has will he give for his life.	4 Και απεκριθη ο Σατανας προς τον Κυριον και ειπε, Δερμα υπερ δερματος, και παντα οσα εχει ο ανθρωπος θελει δωσει υπερ της ζωης αυτου?
5 But now put forth your hand and touch his bone and his flesh, and surely he will blaspheme you to your face."	5 πλην τωρα εκτεινον την χειρα σου και εγγισον τα οστα αυτου και την σαρκα αυτου, δια να ιδης εαν δεν σε βλασφημηση κατα προσωπον.
6 And the LORD said to Satan, "He is in your power; only spare his life."	6 Και ειπεν ο Κυριος προς τον Σαταναν, Ιδου, αυτος εις την χειρα σου? μονον την ζωην αυτου φυλαξον.
7 So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD and smote Job with severe boils from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head.	7 Τοτε εξηλθεν ο Σατανας απ' εμπροσθεν του Κυριου και επαταξε τον Ιωβ με ελκος κακον απο του ιχνους των ποδων αυτου εως της κορυφης αυτου.
8 And he took a potsherd to scrape himself, as he sat among the ashes.	8 Και ελαβεν εις εαυτον οστρακον, δια να ξυηται με αυτο? και εκαθητο εν μεσω της σποδου.
9 Then his wife said to him, "Are you still holding to your innocence? Curse God and die."	9 Τοτε ειπε προς αυτον γυνη αυτου, Ετι κρατεις την ακεραιοτητα σου; Βλασφημησον τον Θεον και αποθανε.
10 But he said to her, "Are even you going to speak as senseless women do? We accept good things from God; and should we not accept evil?" Through all this, Job said nothing sinful.	10 Ο δε ειπε προς αυτην, Ελαλησας ως λαλει μια εκ των αφρονων γυναικων? τα αγαθα μονον θελομεν δεχθη εκ του Θεου, και τα κακα δεν θελομεν δεχθη; Εν πασι τουτοις δεν ημαρτησεν ο Ιωβ με τα χειλη αυτου.
11 Now when three of Job's friends heard of all the misfortune that had come upon him, they set out each one from his own place: Eliphaz from Teman, Bildad from Shuh, and Zophar from Naamath. They met and journeyed together to give him sympathy and comfort.	11 Ακουσαντες δε οι τρεις φιλοι του Ιωβ παντα ταυτα τα κακα τα επελθοντα επ' αυτον, ηλθον εκαστος εκ του τοπου αυτου? Ελιφας ο Θαιμανιτης και Βιλδαδ ο Σαυχιτης και Σωφαρ ο Νααμαθιτης? διοτι ειχον συμφωνησει να ελθωσιν ομου, δια να συλλυπηθωσιν αυτον και να παρηγορησωσιν αυτον.
12 But when, at a distance, they lifted up their eyes and did not recognize him, they began to weep aloud; they tore their cloaks and threw dust upon their heads.	12 Και οτε εσηκωσαν τους οφθαλμους αυτων μακροθεν και δεν εγνωρισαν αυτον, υψωσαν την φωνην αυτων και εκλαυσαν? και διεσχισαν εκαστος το ιματιον αυτου και ερριψαν χωμα επι τας κεφαλας αυτων προς τον ουρανον.
13 Then they sat down upon the ground with him seven days and seven nights, but none of them spoke a word to him; for they saw how great was his suffering.	13 Και εκαθησαν μετ' αυτου κατα γης επτα ημερας και επτα νυκτας, και ουδεις ελαλησε λογον προς αυτον, διοτι εβλεπον οτι ο πονος αυτου ητο μεγας σφοδρα.
