ΙΩΒ - Giobbe - Job 6

LXX	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 υπολαβων δε ιωβ λεγει	1 But Job answered and said,
2 ει γαρ τις ιστων στησαι μου την οργην τας δε οδυνας μου αραι εν ζυγω ομοθυμαδον	2 Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!
3 και δη αμμου παραλιας βαρυτερα εσται αλλ' ως εοικεν τα ρηματα μου εστιν φαυλα	3 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up.
4 βελη γαρ κυριου εν τω σωματι μου εστιν ων ο θυμος αυτων εκπινει μου το αιμα οταν αρξωμαι λαλειν κεντουσι με	4 For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.
5 τι γαρ μη δια κενης κεκραξεται ονος αγριος αλλ' η τα σιτα ζητων ει δε και ρηξει φωνην βους επι φατνης εχων τα βρωματα	5 Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?
6 ει βρωθησεται αρτος ανευ αλος ει δε και εστιν γευμα εν ρημασιν κενοις	6 Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
7 ου δυναται γαρ παυσασθαι μου η ψυχη βρομον γαρ ορω τα σιτα μου ωσπερ οσμην λεοντος	7 The things that my soul refused to touch are as my sorrowful meat.
8 ει γαρ δωη και ελθοι μου η αιτησις και την ελπιδα μου δωη ο κυριος	8 Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant me the thing that I long for!
9 αρξαμενος ο κυριος τρωσατω με εις τελος δε μη με ανελετω	9 Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
10 ειη δε μου πολις ταφος εφ' ης επι τειχεων ηλλομην επ' αυτης ου μη φεισωμαι ου γαρ εψευσαμην ρηματα αγια θεου μου	10 Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
11 τις γαρ μου η ισχυς οτι υπομενω η τις μου ο χρονος οτι ανεχεται μου η ψυχη	11 What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end, that I should prolong my life?
12 μη ισχυς λιθων η ισχυς μου η αι σαρκες μου εισιν χαλκειαι	12 Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of brass?
13 η ουκ επ' αυτω επεποιθειν βοηθεια δε απ' εμου απεστιν	13 Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?
14 απειπατο με ελεος επισκοπη δε κυριου υπερειδεν με	14 To him that is afflicted pity should be shewed from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.
15 ου προσειδον με οι εγγυτατοι μου ωσπερ χειμαρρους εκλειπων η ωσπερ κυμα παρηλθον με	15 My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the stream of brooks they pass away;
16 οιτινες με διευλαβουντο νυν επιπεπτωκασιν μοι ωσπερ χιων η κρυσταλλος πεπηγως	16 Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow is hid:
17 καθως τακεισα θερμης γενομενης ουκ επεγνωσθη οπερ ην	17 What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
18 ουτως καγω κατελειφθην υπο παντων απωλομην δε και εξοικος εγενομην	18 The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish.
19 ιδετε οδους θαιμανων ατραπους σαβων οι διορωντες	19 The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them.
20 και αισχυνην οφειλησουσιν οι επι πολεσιν και χρημασιν πεποιθοτες	20 They were confounded because they had hoped; they came thither, and were ashamed.
21 αταρ δε και υμεις επεβητε μοι ανελεημονως ωστε ιδοντες το εμον τραυμα φοβηθητε	21 For now ye are nothing; ye see my casting down, and are afraid.
22 τι γαρ μη τι υμας ητησα η της παρ' υμων ισχυος επιδεομαι	22 Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance?
23 ωστε σωσαι με εξ εχθρων η εκ χειρος δυναστων ρυσασθαι με	23 Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?
24 διδαξατε με εγω δε κωφευσω ει τι πεπλανημαι φρασατε μοι	24 Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
25 αλλ' ως εοικεν φαυλα αληθινου ρηματα ου γαρ παρ' υμων ισχυν αιτουμαι	25 How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?
26 ουδε ο ελεγχος υμων ρημασιν με παυσει ουδε γαρ υμων φθεγμα ρηματος ανεξομαι	26 Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind?
27 πλην οτι επ' ορφανω επιπιπτετε εναλλεσθε δε επι φιλω υμων	27 Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend.
28 νυνι δε εισβλεψας εις προσωπα υμων ου ψευσομαι	28 Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie.
29 καθισατε δη και μη ειη αδικον και παλιν τω δικαιω συνερχεσθε	29 Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness is in it.
30 ου γαρ εστιν εν γλωσση μου αδικον η ο λαρυγξ μου ουχι συνεσιν μελετα	30 Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?
