| BSB 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite replied: | SVD 1 فَأجَابَ أَلِيفَازُ ٱلتَّيمَانِيُّ وَقَالَ: |
| BSB 2 “If one ventures a word with you, will you be wearied? Yet who can keep from speaking? | SVD 2 «إِنِ ٱمْتَحَنَ أَحَدٌ كَلِمَةً مَعَكَ، فَهَلْ تَسْتَاءُ؟ وَلَكِنْ مَنْ يَسْتَطِيعُ ٱلِٱمْتِنَاعَ عَنِ ٱلْكَلَامِ؟ |
| BSB 3 Surely you have instructed many, and have strengthened their feeble hands. | SVD 3 هَا أَنْتَ قَدْ أَرْشَدْتَ كَثِيرِينَ، وَشَدَّدْتَ أَيَادِيَ مُرْتَخِيَةً. |
| BSB 4 Your words have steadied those who stumbled; you have braced the knees that were buckling. | SVD 4 قَدْ أَقَامَ كَلَامُكَ ٱلْعَاثِرَ، وَثَبَّتَّ ٱلرُّكَبَ ٱلْمُرْتَعِشَةَ! |
| BSB 5 But now trouble has come upon you, and you are weary. It strikes you, and you are dismayed. | SVD 5 وَٱلْآنَ إِذْ جَاءَ عَلَيْكَ ضَجِرْتَ، إِذْ مَسَّكَ ٱرْتَعْتَ. |
| BSB 6 Is your reverence not your confidence, and the uprightness of your ways your hope? | SVD 6 أَلَيْسَتْ تَقْوَاكَ هِيَ مُعْتَمَدَكَ، وَرَجَاؤُكَ كَمَالَ طُرُقِكَ؟ |
| BSB 7 Consider now, I plead: Who, being innocent, has ever perished? Or where have the upright been destroyed? | SVD 7 اُذْكُرْ: مَنْ هَلَكَ وَهُوَ بَرِيءٌ، وَأَيْنَ أُبِيدَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمُونَ؟ |
| BSB 8 As I have observed, those who plow iniquity and those who sow trouble reap the same. | SVD 8 كَمَا قَدْ رَأَيْتَ: أَنَّ ٱلْحَارِثِينَ إِثْمًا، وَٱلزَّارِعِينَ شَقَاوَةً يَحْصُدُونَهَا. |
| BSB 9 By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of His anger they are consumed. | SVD 9 بِنَسَمَةِ ٱللهِ يَبِيدُونَ، وَبِرِيحِ أَنْفِهِ يَفْنَوْنَ. |
| BSB 10 The lion may roar, and the fierce lion may growl, yet the teeth of the young lions are broken. | SVD 10 زَمْجَرَةُ ٱلْأَسَدِ وَصَوْتُ ٱلزَّئِيرِ وَأَنْيَابُ ٱلْأَشْبَالِ تَكَسَّرَتْ. |
| BSB 11 The old lion perishes for lack of prey, and the cubs of the lioness are scattered. | SVD 11 اَللَّيْثُ هَالِكٌ لِعَدَمِ ٱلْفَرِيسَةِ، وَأَشْبَالُ ٱللَّبْوَةِ تَبَدَّدَتْ. |
| BSB 12 Now a word came to me secretly; my ears caught a whisper of it. | SVD 12 «ثُمَّ إِلَيَّ تَسَلَّلَتْ كَلِمَةٌ، فَقَبِلَتْ أُذُنِي مِنْهَا رِكْزًا. |
| BSB 13 In disquieting visions in the night, when deep sleep falls on men, | SVD 13 فِي ٱلْهَوَاجِسِ مِنْ رُؤَى ٱللَّيْلِ، عِنْدَ وُقُوعِ سُبَاتٍ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ، |
| BSB 14 fear and trembling came over me and made all my bones shudder. | SVD 14 أَصَابَنِي رُعْبٌ وَرِعْدَةٌ، فَرَجَفَتْ كُلَّ عِظَامِي. |
| BSB 15 Then a spirit glided past my face, and the hair on my body bristled. | SVD 15 فَمَرَّتْ رُوحٌ عَلَى وَجْهِي، ٱقْشَعَرَّ شَعْرُ جَسَدِي. |
| BSB 16 It stood still, but I could not discern its appearance; a form loomed before my eyes, and I heard a whispering voice: | SVD 16 وَقَفَتْ وَلَكِنِّي لَمْ أَعْرِفْ مَنْظَرَهَا، شِبْهٌ قُدَّامَ عَيْنَيَّ. سَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا مُنْخَفِضًا: |
| BSB 17 ‘Can a mortal be more righteous than God, or a man more pure than his Maker? | SVD 17 أَٱلْإِنْسَانُ أَبَرُّ مِنَ ٱللهِ؟ أَمِ ٱلرَّجُلُ أَطْهَرُ مِنْ خَالِقِهِ؟ |
| BSB 18 If God puts no trust in His servants, and He charges His angels with error, | SVD 18 هُوَذَا عَبِيدُهُ لَا يَأْتَمِنُهُمْ، وَإِلَى مَلَائِكَتِهِ يَنْسِبُ حَمَاقَةً، |
| BSB 19 how much more those who dwell in houses of clay, whose foundations are in the dust, who can be crushed like a moth! | SVD 19 فَكَمْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ سُكَّانُ بُيُوتٍ مِنْ طِينٍ، ٱلَّذِينَ أَسَاسُهُمْ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ، وَيُسْحَقُونَ مِثْلَ ٱلْعُثِّ؟ |
| BSB 20 They are smashed to pieces from dawn to dusk; unnoticed, they perish forever. | SVD 20 بَيْنَ ٱلصَّبَاحِ وَٱلْمَسَاءِ يُحَطَّمُونَ. بِدُونِ مُنْتَبِهٍ إِلَيْهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يَبِيدُونَ. |
| BSB 21 Are not their tent cords pulled up, so that they die without wisdom?’ | SVD 21 أَمَا ٱنْتُزِعَتْ مِنْهُمْ طُنُبُهُمْ؟ يَمُوتُونَ بِلَا حِكْمَةٍ. |
