Job 2

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
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 وكان ذات يوم انه جاء بنو الله ليمثلوا امام الرب وجاء الشيطان ايضا في وسطهم ليمثل امام الرب.
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 فقال الرب للشيطان من اين جئت. فاجاب الشيطان الرب وقال من الجولان في الارض ومن التمشي فيها.
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 فقال الرب للشيطان هل جعلت قلبك على عبدي ايوب. لانه ليس مثله في الارض. رجل كامل ومستقيم يتقي الله ويحيد عن الشر. والى الآن هو متمسك بكماله وقد هيّجتني عليه لابتلعه بلا سبب.
4 Answering him, Satan said, “Skin for skin; and everything that a man has, he will give for his life.	4 فاجاب الشيطان الرب وقال. جلد بجلد وكل ما للانسان يعطيه لاجل نفسه.
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 ولكن ابسط الآن يدك ومس عظمه ولحمه فانه في وجهك يجدّف عليك.
6 Therefore, the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand, but even so, spare his life.”	6 فقال الرب للشيطان ها هو في يدك ولكن احفظ نفسه
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 فخرج الشيطان من حضرة الرب وضرب ايوب بقرح رديء من باطن قدمه الى هامته.
8 So he took a shard of earthenware and scraped the discharge, while sitting on a heap of refuse.	8 فاخذ لنفسه شقفة ليحتك بها وهو جالس في وسط الرماد.
9 But his wife said to him, “Do you still continue in your simplicity? Bless God and die.”	9 فقالت له امرأته انت متمسك بعد بكمالك. بارك الله ومت.
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 فقال لها تتكلمين كلاما كاحدى الجاهلات. أالخير نقبل من عند الله والشر لا نقبل . ‎ في كل هذا لم يخطئ ايوب بشفتيه
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 فلما سمع اصحاب ايوب الثلاثة بكل الشر الذي أتى عليه جاءوا كل واحد من مكانه. اليفاز التيماني وبلدد الشوحي وصوفر النعماتي وتواعدوا ان يأتوا ليرثوا له ويعّزوه.
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 ورفعوا اعينهم من بعيد ولم يعرفوه فرفعوا اصواتهم وبكوا ومزّق كل واحد جبّته وذروا ترابا فوق رؤوسهم نحو السماء.
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 وقعدوا معه على الارض سبعة ايام وسبع ليال ولم يكلمه احد بكلمة لانهم رأوا ان كآبته كانت عظيمة جدا
