Giobbe 18

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Respondens autem Baldad Suhites dixit:	1 Then Baldad the Suhite answered, and said:
2 “ Usque ad quem finem verba iactabitis? Intellegite prius, et sic loquamur.	2 How long will you throw out words? understand first, and so let us speak.
3 Quare reputati sumus ut iumenta et sorduimus coram vobis?	3 Why are we reputed as beasts, and counted vile before you?
4 Qui perdis animam tuam in furore tuo, numquid propter te derelinquetur terra, et transferentur rupes de loco suo?	4 Thou that destroyest thy soul in thy fury, shall the earth be forsaken for thee, and shall rocks be removed out of their place?
5 Etenim lux impii exstinguetur, nec splendebit flamma ignis eius.	5 Shall not the light of the wicked be extinguished, and the flame of his fire not shine?
6 Lux obtenebrescet in tabernaculo illius, et lucerna, quae super eum est, exstinguetur.	6 The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and the lamp that is over him, shall be put out.
7 Arctabuntur gressus virtutis eius, et praecipitabit eum consilium suum.	7 The step of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down headlong.
8 Immissi sunt in rete pedes eius, et in reticulo ambulat.	8 For he hath thrust his feet into a net, and walketh in its meshes.
9 Tenet plantam illius laqueus, et firmatur super eum tendiculum.	9 The sole of his foot shall be held in a snare, and thirst shall burn against him.
10 Abscondita est in terra pedica eius, et decipula illius super semitam.	10 A gin is hidden for him in the earth, and his trap upon the path.
11 Undique terrent eum formidines et involvunt pedes eius.	11 Fears shall terrify him on every side, and shall entangle his feet.
12 Attenuatur fame robur eius, et pernicies parata costis illius.	12 Let his strength be wasted with famine, and let hunger invade his ribs.
13 Devorat partes cutis eius, consumat membra illius primogenitus mortis.	13 Let it devour the beauty of his skin, let the firstborn death consume his arms.
14 Avellitur de tabernaculo suo fiducia eius, et urges eum ad regem formidinum.	14 Let his confidence be rooted out of his tabernacle, and let destruction tread upon him like a king.
15 Habitas in tabernaculo, quod iam non est ei; aspergitur in habitatione eius sulphur.	15 Let the companions of him that is not, dwell in his tabernacle, let brimstone be sprinkled in his tent.
16 Deorsum radices eius siccantur, sursum autem atteruntur rami eius.	16 Let his roots be dried up beneath, and his harvest destroyed above.
17 Memoria illius periit de terra, et non celebrabitur nomen eius in plateis.	17 Let the memory of him perish from the earth and let not his name be renowned in the streets.
18 Expellent eum de luce in tenebras et de orbe transferent eum.	18 He shall drive him out of light into darkness, and shall remove him out of the world.
19 Non erit semen eius neque progenies in populo suo, nec ullae reliquiae in commoratione eius.	19 His seed shall not subsist, nor his offspring among his people, nor any remnants in his country.
20 In die eius stupebunt novissimi, et primos invadet horror.	20 They that come after him shall be astonished at his day, and horror shall fall upon them that went before.
21 Haec sunt ergo tabernacula iniqui; et iste locus eius, qui ignorat Deum ”.	21 These men are the tabernacles of the wicked, and this the place of him that knoweth not God.
