Job 2

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	LXX
1 But it happened that, on a certain day, when the sons of God had arrived and they stood before the Lord, Satan likewise arrived among them, and he stood in his sight.	1 εγενετο δε ως η ημερα αυτη και ηλθον οι αγγελοι του θεου παραστηναι εναντι κυριου και ο διαβολος ηλθεν εν μεσω αυτων παραστηναι εναντιον του κυριου
2 So the Lord said to Satan, “Where do you come from?” Answering, he said, “I have circled the land, and walked around in it.”	2 και ειπεν ο κυριος τω διαβολω ποθεν συ ερχη τοτε ειπεν ο διαβολος ενωπιον του κυριου διαπορευθεις την υπ' ουρανον και εμπεριπατησας την συμπασαν παρειμι
3 And the Lord said to Satan, “Have you not considered my servant, Job, that there is no one like him in the land, a simple and honest man, fearing God and withdrawing from evil, and still retaining his innocence? Yet you have stirred me against him, so that I would afflict him to no purpose.”	3 ειπεν δε ο κυριος προς τον διαβολον προσεσχες ουν τω θεραποντι μου ιωβ οτι ουκ εστιν κατ' αυτον των επι της γης ανθρωπος ακακος αληθινος αμεμπτος θεοσεβης απεχομενος απο παντος κακου ετι δε εχεται ακακιας συ δε ειπας τα υπαρχοντα αυτου δια κενης απολεσαι
4 Answering him, Satan said, “Skin for skin; and everything that a man has, he will give for his life.	4 υπολαβων δε ο διαβολος ειπεν τω κυριω δερμα υπερ δερματος οσα υπαρχει ανθρωπω υπερ της ψυχης αυτου εκτεισει
5 Yet send your hand and touch his bone and his flesh, and then you will see whether or not he blesses you to your face.”	5 ου μην δε αλλα αποστειλας την χειρα σου αψαι των οστων αυτου και των σαρκων αυτου ει μην εις προσωπον σε ευλογησει
6 Therefore, the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand, but even so, spare his life.”	6 ειπεν δε ο κυριος τω διαβολω ιδου παραδιδωμι σοι αυτον μονον την ψυχην αυτου διαφυλαξον
7 And so, Satan departed from the face of the Lord and he struck Job with a very serious ulcer from the sole of the foot all the way to the crown of his head.	7 εξηλθεν δε ο διαβολος απο του κυριου και επαισεν τον ιωβ ελκει πονηρω απο ποδων εως κεφαλης
8 So he took a shard of earthenware and scraped the discharge, while sitting on a heap of refuse.	8 και ελαβεν οστρακον ινα τον ιχωρα ξυη και εκαθητο επι της κοπριας εξω της πολεως
9 But his wife said to him, “Do you still continue in your simplicity? Bless God and die.”	9 χρονου δε πολλου προβεβηκοτος ειπεν αυτω η γυνη αυτου μεχρι τινος καρτερησεις λεγων [9α] ιδου αναμενω χρονον ετι μικρον προσδεχομενος την ελπιδα της σωτηριας μου [9β] ιδου γαρ ηφανισται σου το μνημοσυνον απο της γης υιοι και θυγατερες εμης κοιλιας ωδινες και πονοι ους εις το κενον εκοπιασα μετα μοχθων [9χ] συ τε αυτος εν σαπρια σκωληκων καθησαι διανυκτερευων αιθριος [9δ] καγω πλανητις και λατρις τοπον εκ τοπου περιερχομενη και οικιαν εξ οικιας προσδεχομενη τον ηλιον ποτε δυσεται ινα αναπαυσωμαι των μοχθων και των οδυνων αι με νυν συνεχουσιν [9ε] αλλα ειπον τι ρημα εις κυριον και τελευτα
10 He said to her, “You have spoken like one of the foolish wives. If we accepted good things from the hand of God, why should we not accept bad things?” In all this, Job did not sin with his lips.	10 ο δε εμβλεψας ειπεν αυτη ωσπερ μια των αφρονων γυναικων ελαλησας ει τα αγαθα εδεξαμεθα εκ χειρος κυριου τα κακα ουχ υποισομεν εν πασιν τουτοις τοις συμβεβηκοσιν αυτω ουδεν ημαρτεν ιωβ τοις χειλεσιν εναντιον του θεου
11 And so, three friends of Job, hearing about all the evil that had befallen him, arrived, each one from his own place, Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had agreed to come together to visit and console him.	11 ακουσαντες δε οι τρεις φιλοι αυτου τα κακα παντα τα επελθοντα αυτω παρεγενοντο εκαστος εκ της ιδιας χωρας προς αυτον ελιφας ο θαιμανων βασιλευς βαλδαδ ο σαυχαιων τυραννος σωφαρ ο μιναιων βασιλευς και παρεγενοντο προς αυτον ομοθυμαδον του παρακαλεσαι και επισκεψασθαι αυτον
12 And when they had raised up their eyes from a distance, they did not recognize him, and, crying out, they wept, and, tearing their garments, they scattered dust over their heads into the sky.	12 ιδοντες δε αυτον πορρωθεν ουκ επεγνωσαν και βοησαντες φωνη μεγαλη εκλαυσαν ρηξαντες εκαστος την εαυτου στολην και καταπασαμενοι γην
13 And they sat with him on the ground for seven day and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his sorrow was very great.	13 παρεκαθισαν αυτω επτα ημερας και επτα νυκτας και ουδεις αυτων ελαλησεν εωρων γαρ την πληγην δεινην ουσαν και μεγαλην σφοδρα
