Giobbe (ايوب) 22

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 فاجاب اليفاز التيماني وقال	1 Eliphaz of Teman spoke next. He said:
2 هل ينفع الانسان الله. بل ينفع نفسه الفطن.	2 Can a human being contribute anything to God, when even someone intel igent can benefit onlyhimself?
3 هل من مسرّة للقدير اذا تبررت او من فائدة اذا قوّمت طرقك.	3 Does Shaddai derive any benefit from your uprightness, or profit from your blameless conduct?
4 هل على تقواك يوبّخك او يدخل معك في المحاكمة.	4 Do you think he is punishing you for your piety and bringing you to justice for that?
5 أليس شرك عظيما وآثامك لا نهاية لها.	5 No, for your great wickedness, more likely, for your unlimited sins!
6 لانك ارتهنت اخاك بلا سبب وسلبت ثياب العراة.	6 You have exacted unearned pledges from your brothers, stripped people naked of their clothes,
7 ماء لم تسق العطشان وعن الجوعان منعت خبزا	7 failed to give water to the thirsty and refused bread to the hungry;
8 اما صاحب القوة فله الارض والمترفّع الوجه ساكن فيها.	8 handed the land over to a strong man, for some favoured person to move in,
9 الارامل ارسلت خاليات وذراع اليتامى انسحقت.	9 sent widows away empty-handed and crushed the arms of orphans.
10 لاجل ذلك حواليك فخاخ ويريعك رعب بغتة	10 No wonder, then, if snares are al around you, and sudden terrors make you afraid;
11 او ظلمة فلا ترى وفيض المياه يغطيك	11 if light has turned to darkness, so that you cannot see, and you have been submerged in the flood.
12 هوذا الله في علو السموات. وانظر راس الكواكب ما اعلاه.	12 Does not God live high in the heavens, does he not see the zenith of the stars?
13 فقلت كيف يعلم الله. هل من وراء الضباب يقضي.	13 And because he is up there, you have said, 'What does God know? Can he judge through the darkcloud?
14 السحاب ستر له فلا يرى وعلى دائرة السموات يتمشى.	14 The clouds, to him, are an impenetrable veil, as he goes his way on the rim of the heavens.'
15 هل تحفظ طريق القدم الذي داسه رجال الاثم	15 And wil you stil fol ow the ancient trail trodden by the wicked,
16 الذين قبض عليهم قبل الوقت. الغمر انصبّ على اساسهم.	16 those who were borne off before their time, whose foundations were swamped by a flood,
17 القائلين لله ابعد عنا. وماذا يفعل القدير لهم.	17 for having said to God, 'Go away! What can Shaddai do to us?'
18 وهو قد ملأ بيوتهم خيرا. لتبعد عني مشورة الاشرار.	18 Yet he himself had filled their houses with good things, although excluded from the plans of thewicked!
19 الابرار ينظرون ويفرحون والبريء يستهزئ بهم قائلين	19 At such a spectacle, the upright rejoice, and the innocent deride them:
20 ألم يبد مقاومونا وبقيتهم قد اكلها النار	20 'See how our enemies have been destroyed! See how their wealth has perished in the flames!'
21 تعرّف به واسلم. بذلك ياتيك خير.	21 Wel then! Make peace with him, be reconciled, and al your happiness will be restored to you.
22 اقبل الشريعة من فيه وضع كلامه في قلبك.	22 Welcome the teaching from his lips, and keep his words close to your heart.
23 ان رجعت الى القدير تبنى. ان ابعدت ظلما من خيمتك	23 If you return, humbled, to Shaddai and drive wickedness far from your tent,
24 والقيت التبر على التراب وذهب اوفير بين حصا الاودية.	24 if you lay your gold down on the dust, Ophir down among the pebbles of the torrent,
25 يكون القدير تبرك وفضة اتعاب لك.	25 Shaddai wil be bars of gold to you and silver piled in heaps.
26 لانك حينئذ تتلذذ بالقدير وترفع الى الله وجهك.	26 Then Shaddai will be al your delight, and you wil lift your face to God.
27 تصلّي له فيستمع لك ونذورك توفيها.	27 You wil pray, and he wil hear; and you wil be able to fulfil your vows.
28 وتجزم امرا فيثبت لك وعلى طرقك يضيء نور.	28 Whatever you undertake wil go wel , and light will shine on your path;
29 اذا وضعوا تقول رفع. ويخلص المنخفض العينين.	29 for he casts down the pride of the arrogant, but he saves those of downcast eyes.
30 ينجي غير البريء وينجي بطهارة يديك	30 He rescues anyone who is innocent; have your hands clean, and you wil be saved.
