VULGATADOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Respondens autem Baldad Suhites, dixit :1 Then Baldad the Suhite answered, and said:
2 Usque ad quem finem verba jactabitis ?
intelligite prius, et sic loquamur.
2 How long will you throw out words? understand first, and so let us speak.
3 Quare reputati sumus ut jumenta,
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 Nonne lux impii extinguetur,
nec splendebit flamma ignis ejus ?
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 quæ super eum est extinguetur.
6 The light shall be dark in his tabernacle, and the lamp that is over him, shall be put out.
7 Arctabuntur gressus virtutis ejus,
et præcipitabit eum consilium suum.
7 The step of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down headlong.
8 Immisit enim in rete pedes suos,
et in maculis ejus ambulat.
8 For he hath thrust his feet into a net, and walketh in its meshes.
9 Tenebitur planta illius laqueo,
et exardescet contra eum sitis.
9 The sole of his foot shall be held in a snare, and thirst shall burn against him.
10 Abscondita est in terra pedica ejus,
et decipula illius super semitam.
10 A gin is hidden for him in the earth, and his trap upon the path.
11 Undique terrebunt eum formidines,
et involvent pedes ejus.
11 Fears shall terrify him on every side, and shall entangle his feet.
12 Attenuetur fame robur ejus,
et inedia invadat costas illius.
12 Let his strength be wasted with famine, and let hunger invade his ribs.
13 Devoret pulchritudinem cutis ejus ;
consumat brachia illius primogenita mors.
13 Let it devour the beauty of his skin, let the firstborn death consume his arms.
14 Avellatur de tabernaculo suo fiducia ejus,
et calcet super eum, quasi rex, interitus.
14 Let his confidence be rooted out of his tabernacle, and let destruction tread upon him like a king.
15 Habitent in tabernaculo illius socii ejus qui non est ;
aspergatur in tabernaculo ejus sulphur.
15 Let the companions of him that is not, dwell in his tabernacle, let brimstone be sprinkled in his tent.
16 Deorsum radices ejus siccentur :
sursum autem atteratur messis ejus.
16 Let his roots be dried up beneath, and his harvest destroyed above.
17 Memoria illius pereat de terra,
et non celebretur nomen ejus in plateis.
17 Let the memory of him perish from the earth and let not his name be renowned in the streets.
18 Expellet eum de luce in tenebras,
et de orbe transferet eum.
18 He shall drive him out of light into darkness, and shall remove him out of the world.
19 Non erit semen ejus, neque progenies in populo suo,
nec ullæ reliquiæ in regionibus ejus.
19 His seed shall not subsist, nor his offspring among his people, nor any remnants in his country.
20 In die ejus 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 Hæc sunt ergo tabernacula iniqui,
et iste locus ejus qui ignorat Deum.
21 These men are the tabernacles of the wicked, and this the place of him that knoweth not God.
