Job 5

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

1 “Call out if you please, but who will answer? To which of the holy ones will you turn?

SVD

1 «اُدْعُ ٱلْآنَ. فَهَلْ لَكَ مِنْ مُجِيبٍ؟ وَإِلَى أَيِّ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ تَلْتَفِتُ؟

BSB

2 For resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple.

SVD

2 لِأَنَّ ٱلْغَيْظَ يَقْتُلُ ٱلْغَبِيَّ، وَٱلْغَيْرَةَ تُمِيتُ ٱلْأَحْمَقَ.

BSB

3 I have seen a fool taking root, but suddenly his house was cursed.

SVD

3 إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ ٱلْغَبِيَّ يَتَأَصَّلُ وَبَغْتَةً لَعَنْتُ مَرْبِضَهُ.

BSB

4 His sons are far from safety, crushed in court without a defender.

SVD

4 بَنُوهُ بَعِيدُونَ عَنِ ٱلْأَمْنِ، وَقَدْ تَحَطَّمُوا فِي ٱلْبَابِ وَلَا مُنْقِذَ.

BSB

5 The hungry consume his harvest, taking it even from the thorns, and the thirsty pant after his wealth.

SVD

5 ٱلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُ ٱلْجَوْعَانُ حَصِيدَهُمْ، وَيَأْخُذُهُ حَتَّى مِنَ ٱلشَّوْكِ، وَيَشْتَفُّ ٱلظَّمْآنُ ثَرْوَتَهُمْ.

BSB

6 For distress does not spring from the dust, and trouble does not sprout from the ground.

SVD

6 إِنَّ ٱلْبَلِيَّةَ لَا تَخْرُجُ مِنَ ٱلتُّرَابِ، وَٱلشَّقَاوَةَ لَا تَنْبُتُ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ،

BSB

7 Yet man is born to trouble as surely as sparks fly upward.

SVD

7 وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ مَوْلُودٌ لِلْمَشَقَّةِ كَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْجَوَارِحَ لِٱرْتِفَاعِ ٱلْجَنَاحِ.

BSB

8 However, if I were you, I would appeal to God and lay my cause before Him—

SVD

8 «لَكِنْ كُنْتُ أَطْلُبُ إِلَى ٱللهِ، وَعَلَى ٱللهِ أَجْعَلُ أَمْرِي.

BSB

9 the One who does great and unsearchable things, wonders without number.

SVD

9 ٱلْفَاعِلِ عَظَائِمَ لَا تُفْحَصُ وَعَجَائِبَ لَا تُعَدُّ.

BSB

10 He gives rain to the earth and sends water upon the fields.

SVD

10 ٱلْمُنْزِلِ مَطَرًا عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَٱلْمُرْسِلِ ٱلْمِيَاهَ عَلَى ٱلْبَرَارِيِّ.

BSB

11 He sets the lowly on high, so that mourners are lifted to safety.

SVD

11 ٱلْجَاعِلِ ٱلْمُتَوَاضِعِينَ فِي ٱلْعُلَى، فَيَرْتَفِعُ ٱلْمَحْزُونُونَ إِلَى أَمْنٍ.

BSB

12 He thwarts the schemes of the crafty, so that their hands find no success.

SVD

12 ٱلْمُبْطِلِ أَفْكَارَ ٱلْمُحْتَالِينَ، فَلَا تُجْرِي أَيْدِيهِمْ قَصْدًا.

BSB

13 He catches the wise in their craftiness, and sweeps away the plans of the cunning.

SVD

13 ٱلْآخِذِ ٱلْحُكَمَاءَ بِحِيلَتِهِمْ، فَتَتَهَوَّرُ مَشُورَةُ ٱلْمَاكِرِينَ.

BSB

14 They encounter darkness by day and grope at noon as in the night.

SVD

14 فِي ٱلنَّهَارِ يَصْدِمُونَ ظَلَامًا، وَيَتَلَمَّسُونَ فِي ٱلظَّهِيرَةِ كَمَا فِي ٱللَّيْلِ.

BSB

15 He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth and from the clutches of the powerful.

SVD

15 ٱلْمُنَجِّيَ ٱلْبَائِسَ مِنَ ٱلسَّيْفِ، مِنْ فَمِهِمْ وَمِنْ يَدِ ٱلْقَوِيِّ.

BSB

16 So the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth.

SVD

16 فَيَكُونُ لِلذَّلِيلِ رَجَاءٌ وَتَسُدُّ ٱلْخَطِيَّةُ فَاهَا.

BSB

17 Blessed indeed is the man whom God corrects; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.

SVD

17 «هُوَذَا طُوبَى لِرَجُلٍ يُؤَدِّبُهُ ٱللهُ. فَلَا تَرْفُضْ تَأْدِيبَ ٱلْقَدِيرِ.

BSB

18 For He wounds, but He also binds; He strikes, but His hands also heal.

SVD

18 لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ يَجْرَحُ وَيَعْصِبُ. يَسْحَقُ وَيَدَاهُ تَشْفِيَانِ.

BSB

19 He will rescue you from six calamities; no harm will touch you in seven.

SVD

19 فِي سِتِّ شَدَائِدَ يُنَجِّيكَ، وَفِي سَبْعٍ لَا يَمَسُّكَ سُوءٌ.

BSB

20 In famine He will redeem you from death, and in battle from the stroke of the sword.

SVD

20 فِي ٱلْجُوعِ يَفْدِيكَ مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ، وَفِي ٱلْحَرْبِ مِنْ حَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ.

BSB

21 You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and will not fear havoc when it comes.

SVD

21 مِنْ سَوْطِ ٱللِّسَانِ تُخْتَبَأُ، فَلَا تَخَافُ مِنَ ٱلْخَرَابِ إِذَا جَاءَ.

BSB

22 You will laugh at destruction and famine, and need not fear the beasts of the earth.

SVD

22 تَضْحَكُ عَلَى ٱلْخَرَابِ وَٱلْمَحْلِ، وَلَا تَخْشَى وُحُوشَ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

BSB

23 For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you.

SVD

23 لِأَنَّهُ مَعَ حِجَارَةِ ٱلْحَقْلِ عَهْدُكَ، وَوُحُوشُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ تُسَالِمُكَ.

BSB

24 You will know that your tent is secure, and find nothing amiss when inspecting your home.

SVD

24 فَتَعْلَمُ أَنَّ خَيْمَتَكَ آمِنَةٌ، وَتَتَعَهَّدُ مَرْبِضَكَ وَلَا تَفْقِدُ شَيْئًا.

BSB

25 You will know that your offspring will be many, your descendants like the grass of the earth.

SVD

25 وَتَعْلَمُ أَنَّ زَرْعَكَ كَثِيرٌ وَذُرِّيَّتَكَ كَعُشْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

BSB

26 You will come to the grave in full vigor, like a sheaf of grain gathered in season.

SVD

26 تَدْخُلُ ٱلْمَدْفَنَ فِي شَيْخُوخَةٍ، كَرَفْعِ ٱلْكُدْسِ فِي أَوَانِهِ.

BSB

27 Indeed, we have investigated, and it is true! So hear it and know for yourself.”

SVD

27 هَا إِنَّ ذَا قَدْ بَحَثْنَا عَنْهُ. كَذَا هُوَ. فَٱسْمَعْهُ وَٱعْلَمْ أَنْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ».
