| 1 Zophar of Naamath spoke next. He said: | 1 Respondens autem Sophar Naamathites dixit: |
| 2 My thoughts urge me to reply to this, and hence the impatience that grips me. | 2 “ Idcirco cogitationes meae reducunt me, eo quod intellectus effulsit in me. |
| 3 I have put up with prating that outrages me and now my mind inspires me with an answer. | 3 Doctrinam, qua me arguis, audiam, at spiritus intellegentiae meae respondebit mihi. |
| 4 Do you not know, that since time began and human beings were set on the earth, | 4 Scisne hoc a principio, ex quo positus est homo super terram, |
| 5 the triumph of the wicked has always been brief, and the sinner's gladness has never lasted long? | 5 quod exsultatio iniquorum brevis sit, et gaudium impiorum ad instar puncti? |
| 6 Towering to the sky he may have been, his head touching the clouds; | 6 si ascenderit usque ad caelum superbia eius, et caput eius nubes tetigerit, |
| 7 but he vanishes, like a phantom, once for al , while those who used to see him, ask, 'Where is he?' | 7 quasi sterquilinium in finem perdetur, et, qui eum viderant, dicent: “Ubi est?”. |
| 8 Like a dream that leaves no trace he takes his flight, like a vision in the night he flies away. | 8 Velut somnium avolans non invenietur, transiet sicut visio nocturna. |
| 9 The eye accustomed to see him sees him no more, his home wil never set eyes on him again. | 9 Oculus, qui eum viderat, non videbit, neque ultra intuebitur eum locus suus. |
| 10 His sons will have to reimburse the poor and his children pay back his riches. | 10 Filii eius satagent complacere pauperibus, et manus illius reddent ei possessionem suam. |
| 11 His bones used to be ful of youthful vigour: and there it lies, in the dust with him, now! | 11 Ossa eius, quae implebantur adulescentia, cum eo in pulvere dormient. |
| 12 Evil was sweet to his mouth, he would shelter it under his tongue; | 12 Cum enim dulce fuerit in ore eius malum, abscondet illud sub lingua sua. |
| 13 cultivating it careful y, he would let it linger on his palate. | 13 Parcet illi et non derelinquet illud et celabit in gutture suo. |
| 14 Such food goes bad in his bel y, working inside him like the poison of a viper. | 14 Panis eius in visceribus illius vertetur in fel aspidum intrinsecus. |
| 15 Now he has to vomit up the wealth that he has swal owed, God makes him disgorge it. | 15 Divitias, quas devoravit, evomet, et de ventre illius extrahet eas Deus. |
| 16 He used to suck vipers' venom, and the tongue of the adder kills him. | 16 Venenum aspidum sugebat, et occidet eum lingua viperae. |
| 17 No more will he know the streams of oil or the torrents of honey and cream. | 17 Non videat rivulos olei, torrentes mellis et butyri. |
| 18 When he gives back his winnings, his cheerfulness wil fade, and the satisfied air he had whenbusiness was thriving. | 18 Restituet quaestum suum nec deglutiet, de opibus venditionum non laetabitur. |
| 19 Since he once destroyed the huts of the poor, plundering houses instead of building them up, | 19 Quoniam confringens deseruit pauperes, domum rapuit et non aedificavit eam. |
| 20 since his avarice could never be satisfied, now al his hoarding will not save him; | 20 Nec est satiatus venter eius; et cum desideriis suis evadere non potuit. |
| 21 since nothing could escape his greed, his prosperity wil not last. | 21 Non fuerunt reliquiae de cibo eius, et propterea nihil permanebit de bonis eius. |
| 22 When he has everything he needs, want wil seize him, and misery wil light on him with all its force. | 22 Cum satiatus fuerit, arctabitur; et omnis dolor irruet super eum. |
| 23 On him God looses al his burning wrath, hurling against his flesh a hail of arrows. | 23 Impleat ventrem suum: emittet Deus in eum iram furoris sui et pluet super illum bellum suum. |
| 24 If he escapes the weapons of iron, the bow of bronze wil transfix him. | 24 Fugiet arma ferrea et irruet in arcum aereum. |
| 25 Out of his back sticks an arrow, from his gal a shining point. The terrors advance on him, | 25 Sagitta transverberabit corpus eius, et fulgur iecur eius; vadent et venient super eum horribilia. |
| 26 all the hidden darknesses are waiting to carry him off. A fire unlit by human hand devours him, andconsumes what is left in his tent. | 26 Omnes tenebrae absconditae sunt in occultis eius, devorabit eum ignis, qui non succenditur; affligetur relictus in tabernaculo suo. |
| 27 The heavens lay bare his iniquity, and the earth rises up against him. | 27 Revelabunt caeli iniquitatem eius, et terra consurget adversus eum. |
| 28 The income of his house pours away, like the torrents, on the day of retribution. | 28 Auferetur germen domus illius, detrahetur in die furoris Dei. |
| 29 Such is the fate God reserves for the wicked, the inheritance he assigns to the accursed! | 29 Haec est pars hominis impii a Deo, et hereditas verborum eius a Domino ”. |
