NEW JERUSALEMLXX
1 Bildad of Shuah spoke next. He said:1 υπολαβων δε βαλδαδ ο σαυχιτης λεγει
2 What prevents you others from saying something? Think -- for it is our turn to speak!2 μεχρι τινος ου παυση επισχες ινα και αυτοι λαλησωμεν
3 Why do you regard us as animals, considering us no more than brutes?3 δια τι ωσπερ τετραποδα σεσιωπηκαμεν εναντιον σου
4 Tear yourself to pieces if you will, but the world, for al your rage, wil not turn to desert, the rocks wilnot shift from their places.4 κεχρηται σοι οργη τι γαρ εαν συ αποθανης αοικητος η υπ' ουρανον η καταστραφησεται ορη εκ θεμελιων
5 The light of the wicked must certainly be put out, the lamp that gives him light cease to shine.5 και φως ασεβων σβεσθησεται και ουκ αποβησεται αυτων η φλοξ
6 In his tent the light is dimmed, the lamp that shone on him is snuffed.6 το φως αυτου σκοτος εν διαιτη ο δε λυχνος επ' αυτω σβεσθησεται
7 His vigorous stride loses its power, his own designs falter.7 θηρευσαισαν ελαχιστοι τα υπαρχοντα αυτου σφαλαι δε αυτου η βουλη
8 For into the net his own feet carry him, he walks into the snares.8 εμβεβληται δε ο πους αυτου εν παγιδι εν δικτυω ελιχθειη
9 A spring grips him by the heel, a trap snaps shut, and he is caught.9 ελθοισαν δε επ' αυτον παγιδες κατισχυσει επ' αυτον διψωντας
10 Hidden in the ground is a snare to catch him, pitfal s lie across his path.10 κεκρυπται εν τη γη σχοινιον αυτου και η συλλημψις αυτου επι τριβων
11 Terrors threaten him from al sides following him step by step.11 κυκλω ολεσαισαν αυτον οδυναι πολλοι δε περι ποδας αυτου ελθοισαν εν λιμω στενω
12 Hunger becomes his companion, by his side Disaster stands.12 πτωμα δε αυτω ητοιμασται εξαισιον
13 Disease devours his skin, Death's First-Born gnaws his limbs.13 βρωθειησαν αυτου κλωνες ποδων κατεδεται δε τα ωραια αυτου θανατος
14 He wil be torn from the shelter of his tent, and you wil drag him to the King of Terrors.14 εκραγειη δε εκ διαιτης αυτου ιασις σχοιη δε αυτον αναγκη αιτια βασιλικη
15 You can live in the tent, since it is no longer his, and brimstone wil be scattered on his sheepfold.15 κατασκηνωσει εν τη σκηνη αυτου εν νυκτι αυτου κατασπαρησονται τα ευπρεπη αυτου θειω
16 Below, his roots dry out and his branches are blasted above.16 υποκατωθεν αι ριζαι αυτου ξηρανθησονται και επανωθεν επιπεσειται θερισμος αυτου
17 His memory fades from the land, his name is forgotten in the countryside.17 το μνημοσυνον αυτου απολοιτο εκ γης και υπαρχει ονομα αυτω επι προσωπον εξωτερω
18 Driven from the light into the darkness, he is banished from the world,18 απωσειεν αυτον εκ φωτος εις σκοτος
19 without issue or posterity among his own people or a single survivor where he used to live.19 ουκ εσται επιγνωστος εν λαω αυτου ουδε σεσωσμενος εν τη υπ' ουρανον ο οικος αυτου αλλ' εν τοις αυτου ζησονται ετεροι
20 His end appals the west and fills the east with terror.20 επ' αυτω εστεναξαν εσχατοι πρωτους δε εσχεν θαυμα
21 Such indeed is the fate of the places where wickedness dwel s -- the home of everyone who knowsnot God.21 ουτοι εισιν οικοι αδικων ουτος δε ο τοπος των μη ειδοτων τον κυριον
