1 Бы́сть же ꙗ҆́кѡ де́нь се́й, и҆ прїидо́ша а҆́гг҃ли бж҃їи предста́ти пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ, и҆ дїа́волъ прїи́де посредѣ̀ и҆́хъ предста́ти пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ.
1 Again, on the day when God’s sons came to present themselves before Yahweh, Satan came also among them to present himself before Yahweh.
2 И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь дїа́волꙋ: ѿкꙋ́дꙋ ты̀ грѧде́ши; тогда̀ речѐ дїа́волъ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ: проше́дъ поднебе́снꙋю и҆ ѡ҆бше́дъ всю̀ зе́млю, прїидо́хъ.
2 Yahweh said to Satan, “Where have you come from?” Satan answered Yahweh, and said, “From going back and forth on the earth, and from walking up and down in it.”
3 И҆ речѐ гдⷭ҇ь ко дїа́волꙋ: внѧ́лъ ли є҆сѝ ᲂу҆̀бо (мы́слїю твое́ю) рабꙋ̀ моемꙋ̀ і҆́ѡвꙋ; ꙗ҆́кѡ нѣ́сть такова̀ ѿ сꙋ́щихъ на землѝ: человѣ́къ неѕло́бивъ, и҆́стиненъ, непоро́ченъ, бг҃очести́въ, ᲂу҆далѧ́ѧсѧ ѿ всѧ́кагѡ ѕла̀, є҆ще́ же придержи́тсѧ неѕло́бїѧ: ты́ же ре́клъ є҆сѝ и҆мѣ̑нїѧ є҆гѡ̀ погꙋби́ти вотщѐ.
3 Yahweh said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil. He still maintains his integrity, although you incited me against him, to ruin him without cause.”
4 Ѿвѣща́въ же дїа́волъ гдⷭ҇еви, речѐ: ко́жꙋ за ко́жꙋ, и҆ всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка и҆́мать человѣ́къ, да́стъ за дꙋ́шꙋ свою̀:
4 Satan answered Yahweh, and said, “Skin for skin. Yes, all that a man has he will give for his life.
5 ѻ҆ба́че послѝ рꙋ́кꙋ твою̀ и҆ косни́сѧ косте́мъ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ пло́ти є҆гѡ̀, а҆́ще не въ лице́ тѧ благослови́тъ.
5 But stretch out your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will renounce you to your face.”
6 Рече́ же гдⷭ҇ь дїа́волꙋ: сѐ, предаю̀ тѝ є҆го̀, то́кмѡ дꙋ́шꙋ є҆гѡ̀ соблюдѝ.
6 Yahweh said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand. Only spare his life.”
7 И҆зы́де же дїа́волъ ѿ лица̀ гдⷭ҇нѧ и҆ поразѝ і҆́ѡва гно́емъ лю́тымъ ѿ ногꙋ̀ да́же до главы̀.
7 So Satan went out from the presence of Yahweh, and struck Job with painful sores from the sole of his foot to his head.
8 И҆ взѧ̀ (꙳і҆́ѡвъ) чре́пъ, да ѡ҆строга́етъ гно́й сво́й, и҆ то́й сѣдѧ́ше на гно́ищи внѣ̀ гра́да.
8 He took for himself a potsherd to scrape himself with, and he sat among the ashes.
9 Вре́мени же мно́гꙋ минꙋ́вшꙋ, речѐ къ немꙋ̀ жена̀ є҆гѡ̀: доко́лѣ терпи́ши глаго́лѧ: сѐ, пождꙋ̀ вре́мѧ є҆щѐ ма́ло, ча́ѧ наде́жди спасе́нїѧ моегѡ̀; се́ бо, потреби́сѧ ѿ землѝ па́мѧть твоѧ̀, сы́нове твоѝ и҆ дщє́ри, моегѡ̀ чре́ва болѣ̑зни и҆ трꙋды̀, и҆́миже вотщѐ трꙋди́хсѧ съ болѣ́зньми: ты́ же са́мъ въ гноѝ черве́й сѣди́ши, ѡ҆бнощева́ѧ внѣ̀ без̾ покро́ва, и҆ а҆́зъ скита́ющисѧ и҆ слꙋжа́щи, мѣ́сто ѿ мѣ́ста преходѧ́щи, и҆ до́мъ ѿ до́мꙋ, ѡ҆жида́ющи со́лнца, когда̀ за́йдетъ, да почі́ю ѿ трꙋдѡ́въ мои́хъ и҆ ѿ болѣ́зней, ꙗ҆̀же мѧ̀ нн҃ѣ ѡ҆бдержа́тъ: но рцы̀ глаго́лъ нѣ́кїй ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ и҆ ᲂу҆мрѝ.
9 Then his wife said to him, “Do you still maintain your integrity? Renounce God, and die.”
10 Ѻ҆́нъ же воззрѣ́въ речѐ къ не́й: вскꙋ́ю ꙗ҆́кѡ є҆ди́на ѿ безꙋ́мныхъ же́нъ возглаго́лала є҆сѝ; а҆́ще бл҃га̑ѧ прїѧ́хомъ ѿ рꙋкѝ гдⷭ҇ни, ѕлы́хъ ли не стерпи́мъ; во всѣ́хъ си́хъ приключи́вшихсѧ є҆мꙋ̀, ничи́мже согрѣшѝ і҆́ѡвъ ᲂу҆стна́ма пред̾ бг҃омъ (и҆ не дадѐ безꙋ́мїѧ бг҃ꙋ).
10 But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all this Job didn’t sin with his lips.
11 Оу҆слы́шавше же трїѐ дрꙋ́зїе є҆гѡ̀ всѧ̑ ѕла̑ѧ нашє́дшаѧ на́нь, прїидо́ша кі́йждо ѿ своеѧ̀ страны̀ къ немꙋ̀: є҆лїфа́зъ ѳема́нскїй ца́рь, валда́дъ саѵхе́йскїй власти́тель, сѡфа́ръ мїне́йскїй ца́рь: и҆ прїидо́ша къ немꙋ̀ є҆динодꙋ́шнѡ ᲂу҆тѣ́шити и҆ посѣти́ти є҆го̀.
11 Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that had come on him, they each came from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite; and they made an appointment together to come to sympathize with him and to comfort him.
12 Оу҆ви́дѣвше же є҆го̀ и҆здале́ча, не позна́ша, и҆ возопи́вше гла́сомъ ве́лїимъ воспла́кашасѧ, растерза́вше кі́йждо ѻ҆де́ждꙋ свою̀ и҆ посы́павше пе́рстїю главы̑ своѧ̑:
12 When they lifted up their eyes from a distance, and didn’t recognize him, they raised their voices, and wept; and they each tore his robe, and sprinkled dust on their heads toward the sky.
13 сѣдѣ́ша при не́мъ се́дмь дні́й и҆ се́дмь ноще́й, и҆ никто́же ѿ ни́хъ возглаго́ла къ немꙋ̀ словесѐ: ви́дѧхꙋ бо ꙗ҆́звꙋ лю́тꙋ сꙋ́щꙋ и҆ вели́кꙋ ѕѣлѡ̀.
13 So they sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his grief was very great.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 2:10 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon XXXI)

    If we have received good from the hand of the Lord, shall we not bear the evil?"
