Berean Standard Bible tier 2Smith–Van Dyck tier 2
BSB

1 And Elihu continued:

SVD

1 وَعَادَ أَلِيهُو فَقَالَ:

BSB

2 “Bear with me a little longer, and I will show you that there is more to be said on God’s behalf.

SVD

2 «ٱصْبِرْ عَلَيَّ قَلِيلًا، فَأُبْدِيَ لَكَ أَنَّهُ بَعْدُ لِأَجْلِ ٱللهِ كَلَامٌ.

BSB

3 I get my knowledge from afar, and I will ascribe justice to my Maker.

SVD

3 أَحْمِلُ مَعْرِفَتِي مِنْ بَعِيدٍ، وَأَنْسُبُ بِرًّا لِصَانِعِي.

BSB

4 For truly my words are free of falsehood; one perfect in knowledge is with you.

SVD

4 حَقًّا لَا يَكْذِبُ كَلَامِي. صَحِيحُ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ عِنْدَكَ.

BSB

5 Indeed, God is mighty, but He despises no one; He is mighty in strength of understanding.

SVD

5 «هُوَذَا ٱللهُ عَزِيزٌ، وَلَكِنَّهُ لَا يَرْذُلُ أَحَدًا. عَزِيزُ قُدْرَةِ ٱلْقَلْبِ.

BSB

6 He does not keep the wicked alive, but He grants justice to the afflicted.

SVD

6 لَا يُحْيي ٱلشِّرِّيرَ، بَلْ يُجْرِي قَضَاءَ ٱلْبَائِسِينَ.

BSB

7 He does not take His eyes off the righteous, but He enthrones them with kings and exalts them forever.

SVD

7 لَا يُحَوِّلُ عَيْنَيْهِ عَنِ ٱلْبَارِّ، بَلْ مَعَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ يُجْلِسُهُمْ عَلَى ٱلْكُرْسِيِّ أَبَدًا، فَيَرْتَفِعُونَ.

BSB

8 And if men are bound with chains, caught in cords of affliction,

SVD

8 إِنْ أُوثِقُوا بِٱلْقُيُودِ، إِنْ أُخِذُوا فِي حِبَالَةِ ٱلذِّلِّ،

BSB

9 then He tells them their deeds and how arrogantly they have transgressed.

SVD

9 فَيُظْهِرُ لَهُمْ أَفْعَالَهُمْ وَمَعَاصِيَهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ تَجَبَّرُوا،

BSB

10 He opens their ears to correction and commands that they turn from iniquity.

SVD

10 وَيَفْتَحُ آذَانَهُمْ لِلْإِنْذَارِ، وَيَأْمُرُ بِأَنْ يَرْجِعُوا عَنِ ٱلْإِثْمِ.

BSB

11 If they obey and serve Him, then they end their days in prosperity and their years in happiness.

SVD

11 إِنْ سَمِعُوا وَأَطَاعُوا قَضَوْا أَيَّامَهُمْ بِٱلْخَيْرِ وَسِنِيهِمْ بِٱلنِّعَمِ.

BSB

12 But if they do not obey, then they perish by the sword and die without knowledge.

SVD

12 وَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا، فَبِحَرْبَةِ ٱلْمَوْتِ يَزُولُونَ، وَيَمُوتُونَ بِعَدَمِ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ.

BSB

13 The godless in heart harbor resentment; even when He binds them, they do not cry for help.

SVD

13 أَمَّا فُجَّارُ ٱلْقَلْبِ فَيَذْخَرُونَ غَضَبًا. لَا يَسْتَغِيثُونَ إِذَا هُوَ قَيَّدَهُمْ.

BSB

14 They die in their youth, among the male shrine prostitutes.

SVD

14 تَمُوتُ نَفْسُهُمْ فِي ٱلصِّبَا وَحَيَاتُهُمْ بَيْنَ ٱلْمَأْبُونِينَ.

BSB

15 God rescues the afflicted by their affliction and opens their ears in oppression.

SVD

15 يُنَجِّي ٱلْبَائِسَ فِي ذِلِّهِ، وَيَفْتَحُ آذَانَهُمْ فِي ٱلضِّيقِ.

BSB

16 Indeed, He drew you from the jaws of distress to a spacious and broad place, to a table full of richness.

SVD

16 «وَأَيْضًا يَقُودُكَ مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلضِّيقِ إِلَى رَحْبٍ لَا حَصْرَ فِيهِ، وَيَمْلَأُ مَؤُونَةَ مَائِدَتِكَ دُهْنًا.

BSB

17 But now you are laden with the judgment due the wicked; judgment and justice have seized you.

SVD

17 حُجَّةَ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ أَكْمَلْتَ، فَٱلْحُجَّةُ وَٱلْقَضَاءُ يُمْسِكَانِكَ.

BSB

18 Be careful that no one lures you with riches; do not let a large bribe lead you astray.

SVD

18 عِنْدَ غَضَبِهِ لَعَلَّهُ يَقُودُكَ بِصَفْقَةٍ. فَكَثْرَةُ ٱلْفِدْيَةِ لَا تَفُكُّكَ.

BSB

19 Can your wealth or all your mighty effort keep you from distress?

SVD

19 هَلْ يَعْتَبِرُ غِنَاكَ؟ لَا ٱلتِّبْرَ وَلَا جَمِيعَ قُوَى ٱلثَّرْوَةِ!

BSB

20 Do not long for the night, when people vanish from their homes.

SVD

20 لَا تَشْتَاقُ إِلَى ٱللَّيْلِ ٱلَّذِي يَرْفَعُ شُعُوبًا مِنْ مَوَاضِعِهِمْ.

BSB

21 Be careful not to turn to iniquity, for this you have preferred to affliction.

SVD

21 اِحْذَرْ. لَا تَلْتَفِتْ إِلَى ٱلْإِثْمِ لِأَنَّكَ ٱخْتَرْتَ هَذَا عَلَى ٱلذِّلِّ.

BSB

22 Behold, God is exalted in His power. Who is a teacher like Him?

SVD

22 «هُوَذَا ٱللهُ يَتَعَالَى بِقُدْرَتِهِ. مَنْ مِثْلُهُ مُعَلِّمًا؟

BSB

23 Who has appointed His way for Him, or told Him, ‘You have done wrong’?

SVD

23 مَنْ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ طَرِيقَهُ، أَوْ مَنْ يَقُولُ لَهُ: قَدْ فَعَلْتَ شَرًّا؟

BSB

24 Remember to magnify His work, which men have praised in song.

SVD

24 اُذْكُرْ أَنْ تُعَظِّمَ عَمَلَهُ ٱلَّذِي يُغَنِّي بِهِ ٱلنَّاسُ.

BSB

25 All mankind has seen it; men behold it from afar.

SVD

25 كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ يُبْصِرُ بِهِ. ٱلنَّاسُ يَنْظُرُونَهُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ.

BSB

26 Indeed, God is great—beyond our knowledge; the number of His years is unsearchable.

SVD

26 هُوَذَا ٱللهُ عَظِيمٌ وَلَا نَعْرِفُهُ وَعَدَدُ سِنِيهِ لَا يُفْحَصُ.

BSB

27 For He draws up drops of water which distill the rain from the mist,

SVD

27 لِأَنَّهُ يَجْذُبُ قِطَارَ ٱلْمَاءِ. تَسُحُّ مَطَرًا مِنْ ضَبَابِهَا

BSB

28 which the clouds pour out and shower abundantly on mankind.

SVD

28 ٱلَّذِي تَهْطِلُهُ ٱلسُّحُبُ وَتَقْطُرُهُ عَلَى أُنَاسٍ كَثِيرِينَ.

BSB

29 Furthermore, who can understand how the clouds spread out, how the thunder roars from His pavilion?

SVD

29 فَهَلْ يُعَلِّلُ أَحَدٌ عَنْ شَقِّ ٱلْغَيْمِ أَوْ قَصِيفِ مِظَلَّتِهِ؟

BSB

30 See how He scatters His lightning around Him and covers the depths of the sea.

SVD

30 هُوَذَا بَسَطَ نُورَهُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ، ثُمَّ يَتَغَطَّى بِأُصُولِ ٱلْيَمِّ.

BSB

31 For by these He judges the nations and provides food in abundance.

SVD

31 لِأَنَّهُ بِهَذِهِ يَدِينُ ٱلشُّعُوبَ، وَيَرْزُقُ ٱلْقُوتَ بِكَثْرَةٍ.

BSB

32 He fills His hands with lightning and commands it to strike its mark.

SVD

32 يُغَطِّي كَفَّيْهِ بِٱلنُّورِ، وَيَأْمُرُهُ عَلَى ٱلْعَدُوِّ.

BSB

33 The thunder declares His presence; even the cattle regard the rising storm.

SVD

33 يُخْبِرُ بِهِ رَعْدُهُ، ٱلْمَوَاشِيَ أَيْضًا بِصُعُودِهِ.
