Law History Wisdom Prophets Gospels Acts Epistles Apocalyptic
1 Then Job answered, | 1 וַיַּ֥עַן אִיֹּ֗וב וַיֹּאמַֽר׃ | |
2 "How have you helped him who is without power! How have you saved the arm that has no strength! | 2 מֶה־עָזַ֥רְתָּ לְלֹא־כֹ֑חַ הֹ֝ושַׁ֗עְתָּ זְרֹ֣ועַ לֹא־עֹֽז׃ | |
3 How have you counseled him who has no wisdom, And plentifully declared sound knowledge! | 3 מַה־יָּ֭עַצְתָּ לְלֹ֣א חָכְמָ֑ה וְ֝תוּשִׁיָּ֗ה לָרֹ֥ב הֹודָֽעְתָּ׃ | |
4 To whom have you uttered words? Whose spirit came forth from you? | 4 אֶת־מִ֭י הִגַּ֣דְתָּ מִלִּ֑ין וְנִשְׁמַת־מִ֝י יָצְאָ֥ה מִמֶּֽךָּ׃ | |
5 "Those who are deceased tremble, Those beneath the waters and all that live in them. | 5 הָרְפָאִ֥ים יְחֹולָ֑לוּ מִתַּ֥חַת מַ֝֗יִם וְשֹׁכְנֵיהֶֽם׃ | |
6 Sheol{Sheol is the lower world or the grave.} is naked before God, And Abaddon{Abaddon means Destroyer.} has no covering. | 6 עָרֹ֣ום שְׁאֹ֣ול נֶגְדֹּ֑ו וְאֵ֥ין כְּ֝ס֗וּת לָֽאֲבַדֹּֽון׃ | |
7 He stretches out the north over empty space, And hangs the earth on nothing. | 7 נֹטֶ֣ה צָפֹ֣ון עַל־תֹּ֑הוּ תֹּ֥לֶה אֶ֝֗רֶץ עַל־בְּלִי־מָֽה׃ | |
8 He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, And the cloud is not burst under them. | 8 צֹרֵֽר־מַ֥יִם בְּעָבָ֑יו וְלֹא־נִבְקַ֖ע עָנָ֣ן תַּחְתָּֽם׃ | |
9 He encloses the face of his throne, And spreads his cloud on it. | 9 מְאַחֵ֥ז פְּנֵי־כִסֵּ֑ה פַּרְשֵׁ֖ז עָלָ֣יו עֲנָנֹֽו׃ | |
10 He has described a boundary on the surface of the waters, And to the confines of light and darkness. | 10 חֹֽק־חָ֭ג עַל־פְּנֵי־מָ֑יִם עַד־תַּכְלִ֖ית אֹ֣ור עִם־חֹֽשֶׁךְ׃ | |
11 The pillars of heaven tremble And are astonished at his rebuke. | 11 עַמּוּדֵ֣י שָׁמַ֣יִם יְרֹופָ֑פוּ וְ֝יִתְמְה֗וּ מִגַּעֲרָתֹֽו׃ | |
12 He stirs up the sea with his power, And by his understanding he strikes through Rahab. | 12 בְּ֭כֹחֹו רָגַ֣ע הַיָּ֑ם וּבִתוּבְנָתֹו וּ֝בִתְבוּנָתֹ֗ו מָ֣חַץ רָֽהַב׃ | |
13 By his Spirit the heavens are garnished. His hand has pierced the swift serpent. | 13 בְּ֭רוּחֹו שָׁמַ֣יִם שִׁפְרָ֑ה חֹֽלֲלָ֥ה3 יָ֝דֹ֗ו נָחָ֥שׁ בָּרִֽיחַ׃ | |
14 Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways. How small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?" | 14 הֶן־אֵ֤לֶּה׀ קְצֹ֬ות דַּרְכֹּו דְּרָכָ֗יו וּמַה־שֵּׁ֣מֶץ דָּ֭בָר נִשְׁמַע־בֹּ֑ו וְרַ֥עַם גְּבוּרָתֹו גְּ֝בוּרֹותָ֗יו3 מִ֣י יִתְבֹּונָֽן׃ | |
