- 1. And Job addeth to lift up his simile, and saith: --
- 2. God liveth! He turned aside my judgment, And the Mighty -- He made my soul bitter.
- 3. For all the while my breath `is' in me, And the spirit of God in my nostrils.
- 4. My lips do not speak perverseness, And my tongue doth not utter deceit.
- 5. Pollution to me -- if I justify you, Till I expire I turn not aside mine integrity from me.
- 6. On my righteousness I have laid hold, And I do not let it go, My heart doth not reproach me while I live.
- 7. As the wicked is my enemy, And my withstander as the perverse.
- 8. For what `is' the hope of the profane, When He doth cut off? When God doth cast off his soul?
- 9. His cry doth God hear, When distress cometh on him?
- 10. On the Mighty doth he delight himself? Call God at all times?
- 11. I shew you by the hand of God, That which `is' with the Mighty I hide not.
- 12. Lo, ye -- all of you -- have seen, And why `is' this -- ye are altogether vain?
- 13. This `is' the portion of wicked man with God, And the inheritance of terrible ones From the Mighty they receive.
- 14. If his sons multiply -- for them `is' a sword. And his offspring `are' not satisfied `with' bread.
- 15. His remnant in death are buried, And his widows do not weep.
- 16. If he heap up as dust silver, And as clay prepare clothing,
- 17. He prepareth -- and the righteous putteth `it' on, And the silver the innocent doth apportion.
- 18. He hath built as a moth his house, And as a booth a watchman hath made.
- 19. Rich he lieth down, and he is not gathered, His eyes he hath opened, and he is not.
- 20. Overtake him as waters do terrors, By night stolen him away hath a whirlwind.
- 21. Take him up doth an east wind, and he goeth, And it frighteneth him from his place,
- 22. And it casteth at him, and doth not spare, From its hand he diligently fleeth.
- 23. It clappeth at him its hands, And it hisseth at him from his place.
