LXX Brenton's Greek Septuagint
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Ἔτι δὲ προσθεὶς Ἰὼβ εἶπεν τῷ προοιμίῳ,
1 Job again took up his parable, and said,
2 Ζῇ ὁ Θεὸς, ὃς οὕτω με κέκρικε, καὶ ὁ παντοκράτωρ ὁ πικράνας μου τὴν ψυχὴν,
2 “As God lives, who has taken away my right, the Almighty, who has made my soul bitter
3 εἰ μὴν ἔτι τῆς πνοῆς μου ἐνούσης, πνεῦμα δὲ θεῖον τὸ περιόν μοι ἐν ῥινὶ,
3 (for the length of my life is still in me, and the spirit of God is in my nostrils);
4 μὴ λαλήσειν τὰ χείλη μου ὄνομα, οὐδὲ ἡ ψυχή μου μελετήσει ἄδικα.
4 surely my lips will not speak unrighteousness, neither will my tongue utter deceit.
5 Μή μοι εἴη δικαίους ὑμᾶς ἀποφῆναι ἕως ἂν ἀποθάνω, οὐ γὰρ ἀπαλλάξω μου τὴν ἀκακίαν μου.
5 Far be it from me that I should justify you. Until I die I will not put away my integrity from me.
6 Δικαιοσύνῃ δὲ προσέχων οὐ μὴν προῶμαι, οὐ γὰρ σύνοιδα ἐμαυτῷ ἄτοπα πράξας.
6 I hold fast to my righteousness, and will not let it go. My heart will not reproach me so long as I live.
7 Οὐ μὴν δὲ ἀλλὰ εἴησαν οἱ ἐχθροί μου ὥσπερ ἡ καταστροφὴ τῶν ἀσεβῶν, καὶ οἱ ἐπʼ ἐμὲ ἐπανιστάμενοι, ὥσπερ ἡ ἀπώλεια τῶν παρανόμων.
7 “Let my enemy be as the wicked. Let him who rises up against me be as the unrighteous.
8 Καὶ τίς γάρ ἐστιν ἐλπὶς ἀσεβεῖ, ὅτι ἐπέχει; πεποιθὼς ἐπὶ κύριον ἄρα σωθήσεται;
8 For what is the hope of the godless, when he is cut off, when God takes away his life?
9 Ἢ τὴν δέησιν αὐτοῦ εἰσακούσεται ὁ Θεός; ἢ ἐπελθούσης αὐτῷ ἀνάγκης
9 Will God hear his cry when trouble comes on him?
10 μὴ ἔχει τινὰ παῤῥησίαν ἔναντι αὐτοῦ; ἢ ὡς ἐπικαλεσαμένου αὐτοῦ εἰσακούσεται αὐτοῦ;
10 Will he delight himself in the Almighty, and call on God at all times?
11 Ἀλλὰ δὴ ἀναγγελῶ ὑμῖν τί ἐστιν ἐν χειρὶ Κυρίου, ἅ ἐστι παρὰ παντοκράτορι, οὐ ψεύσομαι.
11 I will teach you about the hand of God. I will not conceal that which is with the Almighty.
12 Ἰδοὺ πάντες οἴδατε, ὅτι κενὰ κενοῖς ἐπιβάλλετε.
12 Behold, all of you have seen it yourselves; why then have you become altogether vain?
13 Αὕτη ἡ μερὶς ἀνθρώπου ἀσεβοῦς παρὰ Κυρίου, κτῆμα δὲ δυναστῶν ἐλεύσεται παρὰ παντοκράτορος ἐπʼ αὐτούς.
13 “This is the portion of a wicked man with God, the heritage of oppressors, which they receive from the Almighty.
14 Ἐὰν δἐ πολλοὶ γένωνται οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν, εἰς σφαγὴν ἔσονται· ἐὰν δὲ καὶ ἀνδρωθῶσι, προσαιτήσουσιν.
14 If his children are multiplied, it is for the sword. His offspring will not be satisfied with bread.
15 Οἱ δὲ περιόντες αὐτοῦ ἐν θανάτῳ τελευτήσουσι, χήρας δὲ αὐτῶν οὐδεὶς ἐλεήσει.
15 Those who remain of him will be buried in death. His widows will make no lamentation.
16 Ἐὰν συναγάγῃ ὥσπερ γῆν ἀργύριον, ἶσα δὲ πηλῷ ἑτοιμάσῃ χρυσίον,
16 Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare clothing as the clay;
17 ταῦτα πάντα δίκαιοι περιποιήσονται, τὰ δὲ χρήματα αὐτοῦ ἀληθινοὶ καθέξουσιν.
17 he may prepare it, but the just will put it on, and the innocent will divide the silver.
18 Ἀπέβη δὲ ὁ οἶκος αὐτοῦ ὥσπερ σῆτες, καὶ ὥσπερ ἀράχνη.
18 He builds his house as the moth, as a booth which the watchman makes.
19 Πλούσιος κοιμηθήσεται καὶ οὐ προσθήσει, ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ διήνοιξε καὶ οὐκ ἔστι.
19 He lies down rich, but he will not do so again. He opens his eyes, and he is not.
20 Συνήντησαν αὐτῷ ὥσπερ ὕδωρ αἱ ὀδύναι, νυκτὶ δὲ ὑφείλατο αὐτὸν γνόφος.
20 Terrors overtake him like waters. A storm steals him away in the night.
21 Ἀναλήψεται δὲ αὐτὸν καύσων καὶ ἀπελεύσεται, καὶ λικμήσει αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ.
21 The east wind carries him away, and he departs. It sweeps him out of his place.
22 Καὶ ἐπιῤῥίψει ἐπʼ αὐτὸν καὶ οὐ φείσεται, ἐκ χειρὸς αὐτοῦ φυγῇ φεύξεται.
22 For it hurls at him, and does not spare, as he flees away from his hand.
23 Κροτήσει ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς χεῖρας αὐτῶν, καὶ συριεῖ αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ.
23 Men will clap their hands at him, and will hiss him out of his place.
