וַ֭יַּעַן
בִּלְדַּ֥ד
הַשּׁוּחִ֗י
וַיֹאמַֽר׃
Then Bildad
the Shuhite
replied:
Then answered
Bildad
the Shuhite,
and said,
2
עַד־
אָ֥ן
תְּמַלֶּל־
אֵ֑לֶּה
וְר֥וּחַ
כַּ֝בִּיר
אִמְרֵי־
פִֽיךָ׃
“How long
will you go on saying
such things?
The words
of your mouth
are a blustering
wind.
How
long
wilt thou speak
these [things]? and [how long shall] the words
of thy mouth
[be like] a strong
wind?
3
הַ֭אֵל
יְעַוֵּ֣ת
מִשְׁפָּ֑ט
וְאִם־
שַׁ֝דַּ֗י
יְעַוֵּֽת־
צֶֽדֶק׃
Does God
pervert
justice?
Does the Almighty
pervert
what is right?
Doth God
pervert
judgment?
or doth the Almighty
pervert
justice?
4
אִם־
בָּנֶ֥יךָ
חָֽטְאוּ־
ל֑וֹ
וַֽ֝יְשַׁלְּחֵ֗ם
בְּיַד־
פִּשְׁעָֽם׃
When
your children
sinned
against Him,
He gave them over
to their rebellion.
If thy children
have sinned
against him, and he have cast them away
for
their transgression;
5
אִם־
אַ֭תָּה
תְּשַׁחֵ֣ר
אֶל־
אֵ֑ל
וְאֶל־
שַׁ֝דַּ֗י
תִּתְחַנָּֽן׃
But if
you
would earnestly seek
God
and ask the Almighty
for mercy,
If thou wouldest seek
unto God
betimes,
and make thy supplication
to the Almighty;
6
אִם־
זַ֥ךְ
וְיָשָׁ֗ר
אָ֥תָּה
כִּי־
עַ֭תָּה
יָעִ֣יר
עָלֶ֑יךָ
וְ֝שִׁלַּ֗ם
נְוַ֣ת
צִדְקֶֽךָ׃
if
you
are pure
and upright,
even
now
He will rouse Himself
on your behalf
and restore
your righteous
estate.
If thou [wert] pure
and upright;
surely now he would awake
for thee, and make the habitation
of thy righteousness
prosperous.
7
וְהָיָ֣ה
רֵאשִׁיתְךָ֣
מִצְעָ֑ר
וְ֝אַחֲרִיתְךָ֗
יִשְׂגֶּ֥ה
מְאֹֽד׃
Though your beginnings
were
modest,
your latter days
will flourish.
Though thy beginning
was small,
yet thy latter end
should greatly
increase.
8
כִּֽי־
שְׁאַל־
נָ֭א
לְדֹ֣ר
רִישׁ֑וֹן
וְ֝כוֹנֵ֗ן
לְחֵ֣קֶר
אֲבוֹתָֽם׃
Please
inquire
of past
generations
and consider
the discoveries
of their fathers.
For enquire,
I pray thee, of the former
age,
and prepare
thyself to the search
of their fathers:
9
כִּֽי־
תְמ֣וֹל
אֲ֭נַחְנוּ
וְלֹ֣א
נֵדָ֑ע
כִּ֤י
צֵ֖ל
יָמֵ֣ינוּ
עֲלֵי־
אָֽרֶץ׃
For
we were born
yesterday
and know
nothing;
our days
on
earth
are but a shadow.
(For we [are but of] yesterday,
and know
nothing, because our days
upon earth
[are] a shadow:
)
10
הֲלֹא־
הֵ֣ם
י֭וֹרוּךָ
יֹ֣אמְרוּ
לָ֑ךְ
וּ֝מִלִּבָּ֗ם
יוֹצִ֥אוּ
מִלִּֽים׃
Will they
not
teach you
and tell
you,
and speak
from their understanding?
Shall not they teach
thee, [and] tell
thee, and utter
words
out of their heart?
11
הֲיִֽגְאֶה־
גֹּ֭מֶא
בְּלֹ֣א
בִצָּ֑ה
יִשְׂגֶּה־
אָ֥חוּ
בְלִי־
מָֽיִם׃
Does papyrus
grow
where there is no
marsh?
Do reeds
flourish
without
water?
Can the rush
grow up
without mire?
can
the flag
grow
without
water?
12
עֹדֶ֣נּוּ
בְ֭אִבּוֹ
לֹ֣א
יִקָּטֵ֑ף
וְלִפְנֵ֖י
כָל־
חָצִ֣יר
יִיבָֽשׁ׃
While
the shoots
are still uncut,
they dry up
quicker than
grass.
Whilst it [is] yet in his greenness,
[and] not cut down,
it withereth
before
any [other] herb.
13
כֵּ֗ן
אָ֭רְחוֹת
כָּל־
שֹׁ֣כְחֵי
אֵ֑ל
וְתִקְוַ֖ת
חָנֵ֣ף
תֹּאבֵֽד׃
Such
is the destiny
of all
who forget
God;
so the hope
of the godless
will perish.
So [are] the paths
of all that forget
God;
and the hypocrite's
hope
shall perish:
14
אֲשֶׁר־
יָק֥וֹט
כִּסְל֑וֹ
וּבֵ֥ית
עַ֝כָּבִ֗ישׁ
מִבְטַחֽוֹ׃
His
confidence
is fragile;
his security
is in a spider’s
web.
Whose hope
shall be cut off,
and whose trust
[shall be] a spider's
web.
15
יִשָּׁעֵ֣ן
עַל־
בֵּ֭יתוֹ
וְלֹ֣א
יַעֲמֹ֑ד
יַחֲזִ֥יק
בּ֝֗וֹ
וְלֹ֣א
יָקֽוּם׃
He leans
on
his web,
but it gives way;
he holds fast,
but it does not
endure.
He shall lean
upon his house,
but it shall not stand:
he shall hold
it fast, but it shall not endure.
16
רָטֹ֣ב
ה֭וּא
לִפְנֵי־
שָׁ֑מֶשׁ
וְעַ֥ל
גַּ֝נָּת֗וֹ
יֹֽנַקְתּ֥וֹ
תֵצֵֽא׃
He
is a well-watered plant
in
the sunshine,
spreading
its shoots
over
the garden.
He [is] green
before
the sun,
and his branch
shooteth forth
in his garden.
17
עַל־
גַּ֭ל
שָֽׁרָשָׁ֣יו
יְסֻבָּ֑כוּ
בֵּ֖ית
אֲבָנִ֣ים
יֶחֱזֶֽה׃
His roots
wrap
around
the rock heap;
he looks for
a home among
the stones.
His roots
are wrapped about
the heap,
[and] seeth
the place
of stones.
18
אִם־
יְבַלְּעֶ֥נּוּ
מִמְּקוֹמ֑וֹ
וְכִ֥חֶשׁ
בּ֝֗וֹ
לֹ֣א
רְאִיתִֽיךָ׃
If
he is uprooted
from his place,
it will disown
him,
saying, ‘I never
saw you.’
If he destroy
him from his place,
then [it] shall deny
him, [saying], I have not seen
thee.
19
הֶן־
ה֭וּא
מְשׂ֣וֹשׂ
דַּרְכּ֑וֹ
וּ֝מֵעָפָ֗ר
אַחֵ֥ר
יִצְמָֽחוּ׃
Surely
this
is the joy
of his way;
yet others
will spring
from the dust.
Behold, this [is] the joy
of his way,
and out of the earth
shall others
grow.
20
הֶן־
אֵ֭ל
לֹ֣א
יִמְאַס־
תָּ֑ם
וְלֹֽא־
יַ֝חֲזִ֗יק
בְּיַד־
מְרֵעִֽים׃
Behold,
God
does not
reject
the blameless,
nor will He
strengthen
the hand
of evildoers.
Behold, God
will not cast away
a perfect
[man], neither will he help
the evil doers:
21
עַד־
יְמַלֵּ֣ה
שְׂח֣וֹק
פִּ֑יךָ
וּשְׂפָתֶ֥יךָ
תְרוּעָֽה׃
He will yet
fill your mouth
with
laughter,
and your lips
with a shout of joy.
Till he fill
thy mouth
with laughing,
and thy lips
with rejoicing.
22
שֹׂנְאֶ֥יךָ
יִלְבְּשׁוּ־
בֹ֑שֶׁת
וְאֹ֖הֶל
רְשָׁעִ֣ים
אֵינֶֽנּוּ׃
פ
Your enemies
will be clothed
in shame,
and the tent
of the wicked
will be no more.”
They that hate
thee shall be clothed
with shame;
and the dwelling
place of the wicked
shall come to nought.
