Job 14

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
1 Man born of a woman, living for a short time, is filled with many miseries.	1 Ανθρωπος γεγεννημενος εκ γυναικος ειναι ολιγοβιος και πληρης ταραχης?
2 Who cometh forth like a flower, and is destroyed, and fleeth as a shadow, and never continueth in the same state.	2 αναβλαστανει ως ανθος και κοπτεται? φευγει ως σκια και δεν διαμενει.
3 And dost thou think it meet to open thy eyes upon such an one, and to bring him into judgment with thee?	3 Και επι τοιουτον ανοιγεις τους οφθαλμους σου, και με φερεις εις κρισιν μετα σου;
4 Who can make him clean that is conceived of unclean seed ? is it not thou who only art?	4 Τις δυναται να εξαγαγη καθαρον απο ακαθαρτου; ουδεις.
5 The days of man are short, and the number of his months is with thee: thou hast appointed his bounds which cannot be passed.	5 Επειδη αι ημεραι αυτου ειναι προσδιωρισμεναι, ο αριθμος των μηνων αυτου ευρισκεται παρα σοι, και συ εθεσας τα ορια αυτου, και δεν δυναται να υπερβη αυτα,
6 Depart a little from him, that he may rest, until his wished for day come, as that of the hireling.	6 αποστρεψον απ' αυτου, δια να ησυχαση, εωσου χαιρων εκπληρωση ως μισθωτος την ημεραν αυτου.
7 A tree hath hope: if it be cut, it groweth green again, and the boughs thereof sprout.	7 Διοτι περι του δενδρου, εαν κοπη, ειναι ελπις οτι θελει αναβλαστησει, και οτι ο τρυφερος αυτου βλαστος δεν θελει εκλειψει.
8 If its root be old in the earth, and its stock be dead in the dust:	8 Και αν η ριζα αυτου παλαιωθη εν τη γη και ο κορμος αυτου αποθανη εν τω χωματι,
9 At the scent of water, it shall spring, and bring forth leaves, as when it was first planted.	9 ομως δια της οσμης του υδατος θελει αναβλαστησει και θελει εκβαλει κλαδους ως νεοφυτον.
10 But man when he shall be dead, and stripped and consumed, I pray you where is he?	10 Αλλ' ο ανθρωπος αποθνησκει και παρερχεται? και ο ανθρωπος εκπνεει, και που ειναι;
11 As if the waters should depart out of the sea, and an emptied river should be dried up:	11 Καθως τα υδατα εκλειπουσιν εκ της θαλασσης και ο ποταμος στειρευει και ξηραινεται,
12 So man when he is fallen asleep shall not rise again; till the heavens be broken, he shall not awake, nor rise up out of his sleep.	12 ουτως ο ανθρωπος, αφου κοιμηθη, δεν ανισταται? εωσου οι ουρανοι μη υπαρξωσι, δεν θελουσιν εξυπνησει, και δεν θελουσιν εγερθη εκ του υπνου αυτων.
13 Who will grant me this, that thou mayest protect me in hell, and hide me till thy wrath pass, and appoint me a. time when thou wilt remember me?	13 Ειθε να με εκρυπτες εν τω ταφω, να με εσκεπαζες εωσου παρελθη η οργη σου, να προσδιωριζες εις εμε προθεσμιαν, και τοτε να με ενθυμηθης
14 Shall man that is dead, thinkest thou, live again? all the days in which I am now in warfare, I expect until my change come.	14 Εαν αποθανη ο ανθρωπος, θελει αναζησει; πασας τας ημερας της εκστρατειας μου θελω περιμενει, εωσου ελθη η απαλλαγη μου.
15 Thou shalt call me, and I will answer thee: to the work of thy hands thou shalt reach out thy right hand.	15 Θελεις καλεσει, και εγω θελω σοι αποκριθη? θελεις επιβλεψει εις το εργον των χειρων σου.
16 Thou indeed hast numbered my steps, but spare my sins.	16 Διοτι τωρα αριθμεις τα διαβηματα μου? δεν παραφυλαττεις τας αμαρτιας μου;
17 Thou hast sealed up my offences as it were in a bag, but hast cured my iniquity.	17 Η παραβασις μου ειναι επεσφραγισμενη εν βαλαντιω, και επισημειονεις την ανομιαν μου.
18 A mountain falling cometh to nought, and a rock is removed out of its place.	18 Βεβαιως το μεν ορος πιπτον εξουδενουται, ο δε βραχος μετακινειται απο του τοπου αυτου.
19 Waters wear away the stones, and with inundation the ground by little and little is washed away: so in like manner thou shalt destroy man.	19 Τα υδατα τρωγουσι τας πετρας? αι πλημμυραι αυτων παρασυρουσι το χωμα της γης? ουτω συ καταστρεφεις την ελπιδα του ανθρωπου,
20 Thou hast strengthened him for a little while, that he may pass away for ever: thou shalt change his face, and shalt send him away.	20 υπερισχυεις παντοτε εναντιον αυτου, και αυτος παρερχεται? μεταβαλλεις την οψιν αυτου και αποπεμπεις αυτον.
21 Whether his children come to honour or dishonour, he shall not understand.	21 Οι υιοι αυτου υψουνται, και αυτος δεν εξευρει? και ταπεινουνται, και αυτος δεν εννοει ουδεν περι αυτων.
22 But yet his flesh, while he shall live, shall have pain, and his soul shall mourn over him.	22 Μονον η σαρξ αυτου επ' αυτου θελει πονει, και η ψυχη αυτου εν αυτω θελει πενθει.
