STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 וַיַּעַן אִיֹּוב וַיֹּאמַר	1 Then Job answered and said,
2 עַד־אָנָה תֹּוגְיוּן נַפְשִׁי וּתְדַכְּאוּנַנִי בְמִלִּים	2 How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?
3 זֶה עֶשֶׂר פְּעָמִים תַּכְלִימוּנִי לֹא־תֵבֹשׁוּ תַּהְכְּרוּ־לִי	3 These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed that ye make yourselves strange to me.
4 וְאַף־אָמְנָם שָׁגִיתִי אִתִּי תָּלִין מְשׁוּגָתִי	4 And be it indeed that I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.
5 אִם־אָמְנָם עָלַי תַּגְדִּילוּ וְתֹוכִיחוּ עָלַי חֶרְפָּתִּי	5 If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach:
6 דְּעוּ־אֵפֹו כִּי־אֱלֹוהַּ עִוְּתָנִי וּמְצוּדֹו עָלַי הִקִּיף	6 Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.
7 הֵן אֶצְעַק חָמָס וְלֹא אֵעָנֶה אֲשַׁוַּע וְאֵין מִשְׁפָּט	7 Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.
8 אָרְחִי גָדַר וְלֹא אֶעֱבֹור וְעַל נְתִיבֹותַי חֹשֶׁךְ יָשִׂים	8 He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.
9 כְּבֹודִי מֵעָלַי הִפְשִׁיט וַיָּסַר עֲטֶרֶת רֹאשִׁי	9 He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.
10 יִתְּצֵנִי סָבִיב וָאֵלַךְ וַיַּסַּע כָּעֵץ תִּקְוָתִי	10 He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.
11 וַיַּחַר עָלַי אַפֹּו וַיַּחְשְׁבֵנִי לֹו כְצָרָיו	11 He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me unto him as one of his enemies.
12 יַחַד ׀ יָבֹאוּ גְדוּדָיו וַיָּסֹלּוּ עָלַי דַּרְכָּם וַיַּחֲנוּ סָבִיב לְאָהֳלִי	12 His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle.
13 אַחַי מֵעָלַי הִרְחִיק וְיֹדְעַי אַךְ־זָרוּ מִמֶּנִּי	13 He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily estranged from me.
14 חָדְלוּ קְרֹובָי וּמְיֻדָּעַי שְׁכֵחוּנִי	14 My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.
15 גָּרֵי בֵיתִי וְאַמְהֹתַי לְזָר תַּחְשְׁבֻנִי נָכְרִי הָיִיתִי בְעֵינֵיהֶם	15 They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.
16 לְעַבְדִּי קָרָאתִי וְלֹא יַעֲנֶה בְּמֹו־פִי אֶתְחַנֶּן־לֹו	16 I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I intreated him with my mouth.
17 רוּחִי זָרָה לְאִשְׁתִּי וְחַנֹּתִי לִבְנֵי בִטְנִי	17 My breath is strange to my wife, though I intreated for the children's sake of mine own body.
18 גַּם־עֲוִילִים מָאֲסוּ בִי אָקוּמָה וַיְדַבְּרוּ־בִי	18 Yea, young children despised me; I arose, and they spake against me.
19 תִּעֲבוּנִי כָּל־מְתֵי סֹודִי וְזֶה־אָהַבְתִּי נֶהְפְּכוּ־בִי	19 All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.
20 בְּעֹורִי וּבִבְשָׂרִי דָּבְקָה עַצְמִי וָאֶתְמַלְּטָה בְּעֹור שִׁנָּי	20 My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
21 חָנֻּנִי חָנֻּנִי אַתֶּם רֵעָי כִּי יַד־אֱלֹוהַּ נָגְעָה בִּי	21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.
22 לָמָּה תִּרְדְּפֻנִי כְמֹו־אֵל וּמִבְּשָׂרִי לֹא תִשְׂבָּעוּ	22 Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?
23 מִי־יִתֵּן אֵפֹו וְיִכָּתְבוּן מִלָּי מִי־יִתֵּן בַּסֵּפֶר וְיֻחָקוּ	23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
24 בְּעֵט־בַּרְזֶל וְעֹפָרֶת לָעַד בַּצּוּר יֵחָצְבוּן	24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!
25 וַאֲנִי יָדַעְתִּי גֹּאֲלִי חָי וְאַחֲרֹון עַל־עָפָר יָקוּם	25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26 וְאַחַר עֹורִי נִקְּפוּ־זֹאת וּמִבְּשָׂרִי אֶחֱזֶה אֱלֹוהַּ	26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
27 אֲשֶׁר אֲנִי ׀ אֶחֱזֶה־לִּי וְעֵינַי רָאוּ וְלֹא־זָר כָּלוּ כִלְיֹתַי בְּחֵקִי	27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
28 כִּי תֹאמְרוּ מַה־נִּרְדָּף־לֹו וְשֹׁרֶשׁ דָּבָר נִמְצָא־בִי	28 But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?
29 גּוּרוּ לָכֶם ׀ מִפְּנֵי־חֶרֶב כִּי־חֵמָה עֲוֹנֹות חָרֶב לְמַעַן תֵּדְעוּן [שַׁדִּין כ] (שַׁדּוּן׃ ק) ס	29 Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.
