| 1:1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job. That man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God, and turned away from evil. | 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. | 1 ウヅの地にヨブという名の人があった。そのひととなりは全く、かつ正しく、神を恐れ、悪に遠ざかった。 |
| 1:2 There were born to him seven sons and three daughters. | 2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters. | 2 彼に男の子七人と女の子三人があり、 |
| 1:3 His possessions also were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children of the east. | 3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east. | 3 その家畜は羊七千頭、らくだ三千頭、牛五百くびき、雌ろば五百頭で、しもべも非常に多く、この人は東の人々のうちで最も大いなる者であった。 |
| 1:4 His sons went and held a feast in the house of each one on his birthday; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them. | 4 And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them. | 4 そのむすこたちは、めいめい自分の日に、自分の家でふるまいを設け、その三人の姉妹をも招いて一緒に食い飲みするのを常とした。 |
| 1:5 It was so, when the days of their feasting had run their course, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, “It may be that my sons have sinned, and renounced God in their hearts.” Job did so continually. | 5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually. | 5 そのふるまいの日がひとめぐり終るごとに、ヨブは彼らを呼び寄せて聖別し、朝早く起きて、彼らすべての数にしたがって燔祭をささげた。これはヨブが「わたしのむすこたちは、ことによったら罪を犯し、その心に神をのろったかもしれない」と思ったからである。ヨブはいつも、このように行った。 |
| 1:6 Now it happened on the day when God’s sons came to present themselves before Yahweh, that Satan also came among them. | 6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. | 6 ある日、神の子たちが来て、主の前に立った。サタンも来てその中にいた。 |
| 1:7 Yahweh said to Satan, “Where have you come from?” Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, “From going back and forth in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.” | 7 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. | 7 主は言われた、「あなたはどこから来たか」。サタンは主に答えて言った、「地を行きめぐり、あちらこちら歩いてきました」。 |
| 1:8 Yahweh said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil.” | 8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? | 8 主はサタンに言われた、「あなたはわたしのしもべヨブのように全く、かつ正しく、神を恐れ、悪に遠ざかる者の世にないことを気づいたか」。 |
| 1:9 Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, “Does Job fear God for nothing? | 9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? | 9 サタンは主に答えて言った、「ヨブはいたずらに神を恐れましょうか。 |
| 1:10 Haven’t you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. | 10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. | 10 あなたは彼とその家およびすべての所有物のまわりにくまなく、まがきを設けられたではありませんか。あなたは彼の勤労を祝福されたので、その家畜は地にふえたのです。 |
| 1:11 But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face.” | 11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face. | 11 しかし今あなたの手を伸べて、彼のすべての所有物を撃ってごらんなさい。彼は必ずあなたの顔に向かって、あなたをのろうでしょう」。 |
| 1:12 Yahweh said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your power. Only on himself don’t put forth your hand.” So Satan went forth from the presence of Yahweh. | 12 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD. | 12 主はサタンに言われた、「見よ、彼のすべての所有物をあなたの手にまかせる。ただ彼の身に手をつけてはならない」。サタンは主の前から出て行った。 |
| 1:13 It fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house, | 13 And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: | 13 ある日ヨブのむすこ、娘たちが第一の兄の家で食事をし、酒を飲んでいたとき、 |
| 1:14 that there came a messenger to Job, and said, “The oxen were plowing, and the donkeys feeding beside them, | 14 And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them: | 14 使者がヨブのもとに来て言った、「牛が耕し、ろばがそのかたわらで草を食っていると、 |
| 1:15 and the Sabeans attacked, and took them away. Yes, they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you.” | 15 And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. | 15 シバびとが襲ってきて、これを奪い、つるぎをもってしもべたちを打ち殺しました。わたしはただひとりのがれて、あなたに告げるために来ました」。 |
| 1:16 While he was still speaking, there also came another, and said, “The fire of God has fallen from the sky, and has burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them, and I alone have escaped to tell you.” | 16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. | 16 彼がなお語っているうちに、またひとりが来て言った、「神の火が天から下って、羊およびしもべたちを焼き滅ぼしました。わたしはただひとりのがれて、あなたに告げるために来ました」。 |
| 1:17 While he was still speaking, there came also another, and said, “The Chaldeans made three bands, and swept down on the camels, and have taken them away, yes, and killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you.” | 17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. | 17 彼がなお語っているうちに、またひとりが来て言った、「カルデヤびとが三組に分れて来て、らくだを襲ってこれを奪い、つるぎをもってしもべたちを打ち殺しました。わたしはただひとりのがれて、あなたに告げるために来ました」。 |
| 1:18 While he was still speaking, there came also another, and said, “Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house, | 18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: | 18 彼がなお語っているうちに、またひとりが来て言った、「あなたのむすこ、娘たちが第一の兄の家で食事をし、酒を飲んでいると、 |
| 1:19 and behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young men, and they are dead. I alone have escaped to tell you.” | 19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. | 19 荒野の方から大風が吹いてきて、家の四すみを撃ったので、あの若い人たちの上につぶれ落ちて、皆死にました。わたしはただひとりのがれて、あなたに告げるために来ました」。 |
| 1:20 Then Job arose, and tore his robe, and shaved his head, and fell down on the ground, and worshiped. | 20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, | 20 このときヨブは起き上がり、上着を裂き、頭をそり、地に伏して拝し、 |
| 1:21 He said, “Naked I came out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return there. Yahweh gave, and Yahweh has taken away. Blessed be the name of Yahweh.” | 21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. | 21 そして言った、「わたしは裸で母の胎を出た。また裸でかしこに帰ろう。主が与え、主が取られたのだ。主のみ名はほむべきかな」。 |
| 1:22 In all this, Job did not sin, nor charge God with wrongdoing. | 22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly. | 22 すべてこの事においてヨブは罪を犯さず、また神に向かって愚かなことを言わなかった。 |

| 2:4 Satan answered Yahweh, and said, “Skin for skin. Yes, all that a man has he will give for his life. | 4 And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life. | 4 サタンは主に答えて言った、「皮には皮をもってします。人は自分の命のために、その持っているすべての物をも与えます。 |

| 2:6 Yahweh said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand. Only spare his life.” | 6 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life. | 6 主はサタンに言われた、「見よ、彼はあなたの手にある。ただ彼の命を助けよ」。 |
| 2:7 So Satan went forth from the presence of Yahweh, and struck Job with painful sores from the sole of his foot to his head. | 7 So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown. | 7 サタンは主の前から出て行って、ヨブを撃ち、その足の裏から頭の頂まで、いやな腫物をもって彼を悩ました。 |

| 2:10 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. | 10 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?

| 2:11 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. | 11 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him. | 11 時に、ヨブの三人の友がこのすべての災のヨブに臨んだのを聞いて、めいめい自分の所から尋ねて来た。すなわちテマンびとエリパズ、シュヒびとビルダデ、ナアマびとゾパルである。彼らはヨブをいたわり、慰めようとして、たがいに約束してきたのである。 |
| 2:12 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. | 12 And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven. | 12 彼らは目をあげて遠方から見たが、彼のヨブであることを認めがたいほどであったので、声をあげて泣き、めいめい自分の上着を裂き、天に向かって、ちりをうちあげ、自分たちの頭の上にまき散らした。 |
| 2:13 So they sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spoke a word to him, for they saw that his grief was very great. | 13 So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spake a word unto him: for they saw that his grief was very great. | 13 こうして七日七夜、彼と共に地に座していて、ひと言も彼に話しかける者がなかった。彼の苦しみの非常に大きいのを見たからである。 |

| 16:13 His archers surround me. He splits my kidneys apart, and does not spare. He pours out my gall on the ground. | 13 His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground. | 13 その射手はわたしを囲む。彼は無慈悲にもわたしの腰を射通し、わたしの肝を地に流れ出させられる。 |

| 32:1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes. | 1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes. | 1 このようにヨブが自分の正しいことを主張したので、これら三人の者はヨブに答えるのをやめた。 |
| 32:2 Then the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel, the Buzite, of the family of Ram, was kindled against Job. His wrath was kindled because he justified himself rather than God. | 2 Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God. | 2 その時ラム族のブズびとバラケルの子エリフは怒りを起した。すなわちヨブが神よりも自分の正しいことを主張するので、彼はヨブに向かって怒りを起した。 |
| 32:3 Also his wrath was kindled against his three friends, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job. | 3 Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job. | 3 またヨブの三人の友がヨブを罪ありとしながら、答える言葉がなかったので、エリフは彼らにむかっても怒りを起した。 |
| 32:4 Now Elihu had waited to speak to Job, because they were elder than he. | 4 Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken, because they were elder than he. | 4 エリフは彼らが皆、自分よりも年長者であったので、ヨブに物言うことをひかえて待っていたが、 |
| 32:5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, his wrath was kindled. | 5 When Elihu saw that there was no answer in the mouth of these three men, then his wrath was kindled. | 5 ここにエリフは三人の口に答える言葉のないのを見て怒りを起した。 |
| 32:6 Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered, “I am young, and you are very old; Therefore I held back, and didn’t dare show you my opinion. | 6 And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion. | 6 ブズびとバラケルの子エリフは答えて言った、「わたしは年若く、あなたがたは年老いている。それゆえ、わたしははばかって、わたしの意見を述べることをあえてしなかった。 |
| 32:7 I said, ‘Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.’ | 7 I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom. | 7 わたしは思った、『日を重ねた者が語るべきだ、年を積んだ者が知恵を教えるべきだ』と。 |
| 32:8 But there is a spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty gives them understanding. | 8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. | 8 しかし人のうちには霊があり、全能者の息が人に悟りを与える。 |
| 32:9 It is not the great who are wise, nor the aged who understand justice. | 9 Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment. | 9 老いた者、必ずしも知恵があるのではなく、年とった者、必ずしも道理をわきまえるのではない。 |
| 32:10 Therefore I said, ‘Listen to me; I also will show my opinion.’ | 10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion. | 10 ゆえにわたしは言う、『わたしに聞け、わたしもまたわが意見を述べよう』。 |
| 32:11 “Behold, I waited for your words, and I listened for your reasoning, while you searched out what to say. | 11 Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say. | 11 見よ、わたしはあなたがたの言葉に期待し、その知恵ある言葉に耳を傾け、あなたがたが言うべき言葉を捜し出すのを待っていた。 |
| 32:12 Yes, I gave you my full attention, but there was no one who convinced Job, or who answered his words, among you. | 12 Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words: | 12 わたしはあなたがたに心をとめたが、あなたがたのうちにヨブを言いふせる者はひとりもなく、また彼の言葉に答える者はひとりもなかった。 |
| 32:13 Beware lest you say, ‘We have found wisdom, God may refute him, not man;’ | 13 Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man. | 13 おそらくあなたがたは言うだろう、『われわれは知恵を見いだした、彼に勝つことのできるのは神だけで、人にはできない』と。 |
| 32:14 for he has not directed his words against me; neither will I answer him with your speeches. | 14 Now he hath not directed his words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches. | 14 彼はその言葉をわたしに向けて言わなかった。わたしはあなたがたの言葉をもって彼に答えることはしない。 |
| 32:15 “They are amazed. They answer no more. They don’t have a word to say. | 15 They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking. | 15 彼らは驚いて、もはや答えることをせず、彼らには、もはや言うべき言葉がない。 |
| 32:16 Shall I wait, because they don’t speak, because they stand still, and answer no more? | 16 When I had waited, (for they spake not, but stood still, and answered no more;) | 16 彼らは物言わず、立ちとどまって、もはや答えるところがないので、わたしはこれ以上待つ必要があろうか。 |
| 32:17 I also will answer my part, and I also will show my opinion. | 17 I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion. | 17 わたしもまたわたしの分を答え、わたしの意見を述べよう。 |
| 32:18 For I am full of words. The spirit within me constrains me. | 18 For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me. | 18 わたしには言葉が満ち、わたしのうちの霊がわたしに迫るからだ。 |
| 32:19 Behold, my breast is as wine which has no vent; like new wineskins it is ready to burst. | 19 Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles. | 19 見よ、わたしの心は口を開かないぶどう酒のように、新しいぶどう酒の皮袋のように、今にも張りさけようとしている。 |
| 32:20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed. I will open my lips and answer. | 20 I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer. | 20 わたしは語って、気を晴らし、くちびるを開いて答えよう。 |
| 32:21 Please don’t let me respect any man’s person, neither will I give flattering titles to any man. | 21 Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man. | 21 わたしはだれをもかたより見ることなく、また何人にもへつらうことをしない。 |
| 32:22 For I don’t know how to give flattering titles; or else my Maker would soon take me away. | 22 For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away. | 22 わたしはへつらうことを知らないからだ。もしへつらうならば、わたしの造り主は直ちにわたしを滅ぼされるであろう。 |

| 33:1 “However, Job, please hear my speech, and listen to all my words. | 1 Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words. | 1 だから、ヨブよ、今わたしの言うことを聞け、わたしのすべての言葉に耳を傾けよ。 |
| 33:2 See now, I have opened my mouth. My tongue has spoken in my mouth. | 2 Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth. | 2 見よ、わたしは口を開き、口の中の舌は物言う。 |
| 33:3 My words shall utter the uprightness of my heart. That which my lips know they shall speak sincerely. | 3 My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly. | 3 わたしの言葉はわが心の正しきを語り、わたしのくちびるは真実をもってその知識を語る。 |
| 33:4 The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life. | 4 The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life. | 4 神の霊はわたしを造り、全能者の息はわたしを生かす。 |
| 33:5 If you can, answer me. Set your words in order before me, and stand forth. | 5 If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up. | 5 あなたがもしできるなら、わたしに答えよ、わたしの前に言葉を整えて、立て。 |
| 33:6 Behold, I am toward God even as you are. I am also formed out of the clay. | 6 Behold, I am according to thy wish in God's stead: I also am formed out of the clay. | 6 見よ、神に対しては、わたしもあなたと同様であり、わたしもまた土から取って造られた者だ。 |
| 33:7 Behold, my terror shall not make you afraid, neither shall my pressure be heavy on you. | 7 Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee. | 7 見よ、わたしの威厳はあなたを恐れさせない、わたしの勢いはあなたを圧しない。 |
| 33:8 “Surely you have spoken in my hearing, I have heard the voice of your words, saying, | 8 Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying, | 8 確かに、あなたはわたしの聞くところで言った、わたしはあなたの言葉の声を聞いた。 |
| 33:9‘I am clean, without disobedience. I am innocent, neither is there iniquity in me. | 9 I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me. | 9 あなたは言う、『わたしはいさぎよく、とがはない。わたしは清く、不義はない。 |
| 33:10 Behold, he finds occasions against me. He counts me for his enemy. | 10 Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy, | 10 見よ、彼はわたしを攻める口実を見つけ、わたしを自分の敵とみなし、 |
| 33:11 He puts my feet in the stocks. He marks all my paths.’ | 11 He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths. | 11 わたしの足をかせにはめ、わたしのすべての行いに目をとめられる』と。 |
| 33:12 “Behold, I will answer you. In this you are not just, for God is greater than man. | 12 Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man. | 12 見よ、わたしはあなたに答える、あなたはこの事において正しくない。神は人よりも大いなる者だ。 |
| 33:13 Why do you strive against him, because he doesn’t give account of any of his matters? | 13 Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters. | 13 あなたが『彼はわたしの言葉に少しも答えられない』といって、彼に向かって言い争うのは、どういうわけであるか。 |
| 33:14 For God speaks once, yes twice, though man pays no attention. | 14 For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not. | 14 神は一つの方法によって語られ、また二つの方法によって語られるのだが、人はそれを悟らないのだ。 |
| 33:15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men,in slumbering on the bed; | 15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; | 15 人々が熟睡するとき、または床にまどろむとき、夢あるいは夜の幻のうちで、 |
| 33:16 Then he opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction, | 16 Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction, | 16 彼は人々の耳を開き、警告をもって彼らを恐れさせ、 |
| 33:17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man. | 17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man. | 17 こうして人にその悪しきわざを離れさせ、高ぶりを人から除き、 |
| 33:18 He keeps back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword. | 18 He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword. | 18 その魂を守って、墓に至らせず、その命を守って、つるぎに滅びないようにされる。 |
| 33:19 He is chastened also with pain on his bed, with continual strife in his bones; | 19 He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain: | 19 人はまたその床の上で痛みによって懲らされ、その骨に戦いが絶えることなく、 |
| 33:20 So that his life abhors bread, and his soul dainty food. | 20 So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat. | 20 その命は、食物をいとい、その食欲は、おいしい食物をきらう。 |
| 33:21 His flesh is so consumed away, that it can’t be seen. His bones that were not seen stick out. | 21 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out. | 21 その肉はやせ落ちて見えず、その骨は見えなかったものまでもあらわになり、 |
| 33:22 Yes, his soul draws near to the pit, and his life to the destroyers. | 22 Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers. | 22 その魂は墓に近づき、その命は滅ぼす者に近づく。 |
| 33:23 “If there is beside him an angel, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to show to man what is right for him; | 23 If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness: | 23 もしそこに彼のためにひとりの天使があり、千のうちのひとりであって、仲保となり、人にその正しい道を示すならば、 |
| 33:24 then God is gracious to him, and says, ‘Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.’ | 24 Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom. | 24 神は彼をあわれんで言われる、『彼を救って、墓に下ることを免れさせよ、わたしはすでにあがないしろを得た。 |
| 33:25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s. He returns to the days of his youth. | 25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth: | 25 彼の肉を幼な子の肉よりもみずみずしくならせ、彼を若い時の元気に帰らせよ』と。 |
| 33:26 He prays to God, and he is favorable to him, so that he sees his face with joy.He restores to man his righteousness. | 26 He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness. | 26 その時、彼が神に祈るならば、神は彼を顧み、喜びをもって、み前にいたらせ、その救を人に告げ知らせられる。 |
| 33:27 He sings before men, and says, ‘I have sinned, and perverted that which was right,and it didn’t profit me. | 27 He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not; | 27 彼は人々の前に歌って言う、『わたしは罪を犯し、正しい事を曲げた。しかしわたしに報復がなかった。 |
| 33:28 He has redeemed my soul from going into the pit. My life shall see the light.’ | 28 He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light. | 28 彼はわたしの魂をあがなって、墓に下らせられなかった。わたしの命は光を見ることができる』と。 |

| 33:30 to bring back his soul from the pit, that he may be enlightened with the light of the living. | 30 To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living. | 30 その魂を墓から引き返し、彼に命の光を見させられる。 |
| 33:31 Mark well, Job, and listen to me. Hold your peace, and I will speak. | 31 Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak. | 31 ヨブよ、耳を傾けてわたしに聞け、黙せよ、わたしは語ろう。 |

| 34:1 Moreover Elihu answered, | 1 Furthermore Elihu answered and said, | 1 エリフはまた答えて言った、 |
| 34:2 “Hear my words, you wise men. Give ear to me, you who have knowledge. | 2 Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge. | 2 「あなたがた知恵ある人々よ、わたしの言葉を聞け、あなたがた知識ある人々よ、わたしに耳を傾けよ。 |
| 34:3 For the ear tries words, as the palate tastes food. | 3 For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat. | 3 口が食物を味わうように、耳は言葉をわきまえるからだ。 |
| 34:4 Let us choose for us that which is right. Let us know among ourselves what is good. | 4 Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good. | 4 われわれは正しい事を選び、われわれの間に良い事の何であるかを明らかにしよう。 |
| 34:5 For Job has said, ‘I am righteous, God has taken away my right: | 5 For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment. | 5 ヨブは言った、『わたしは正しい、神はわたしの公義を奪われた。 |
| 34:6 Notwithstanding my right I am considered a liar. My wound is incurable, though I am without disobedience.’ | 6 Should I lie against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression. | 6 わたしは正しいにもかかわらず、偽る者とされた。わたしにはとががないけれども、わたしの矢傷はいえない』と。 |
| 34:7 What man is like Job, who drinks scorn like water, | 7 What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water? | 7 だれかヨブのような人があろう。彼はあざけりを水のように飲み、 |
| 34:8 Who goes in company with the workers of iniquity, and walks with wicked men? | 8 Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men. | 8 悪をなす者どもと交わり、悪人と共に歩む。 |
| 34:9 For he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.’ | 9 For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God. | 9 彼は言った、『人は神と親しんでも、なんの益もない』と。 |
| 34:10 “Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity. | 10 Therefore hearken unto me ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity. | 10 それであなたがた理解ある人々よ、わたしに聞け、神は断じて悪を行うことなく、全能者は断じて不義を行うことはない。 |
| 34:11 For the work of a man he will render to him, and cause every man to find according to his ways. | 11 For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways. | 11 神は人のわざにしたがってその身に報い、おのおのの道にしたがって、その身に振りかからせられる。 |
| 34:12 Yes surely, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice. | 12 Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment. | 12 まことに神は悪しき事を行われない。全能者はさばきをまげられない。 |
| 34:13 Who put him in charge of the earth? or who has appointed him over the whole world? | 13 Who hath given him a charge over the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world? | 13 だれかこの地を彼にゆだねた者があるか。だれか全世界を彼に負わせた者があるか。 |
| 34:14 If he set his heart on himself, If he gathered to himself his spirit and his breath, | 14 If he set his heart upon man, if he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath; | 14 神がもしその霊をご自分に取りもどし、その息をご自分に取りあつめられるならば、 |
| 34:15 all flesh would perish together, and man would turn again to dust. | 15 All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust. | 15 すべての肉は共に滅び、人はちりに帰るであろう。 |
| 34:16 “If now you have understanding, hear this. Listen to the voice of my words. | 16 If now thou hast understanding, hear this: hearken to the voice of my words. | 16 もし、あなたに悟りがあるならば、これを聞け、わたしの言うところに耳を傾けよ。 |
| 34:17 Shall even one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn him who is righteous and mighty?— | 17 Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just? | 17 公義を憎む者は世を治めることができようか。正しく力ある者を、あなたは非難するであろうか。 |
| 34:18 Who says to a king, ‘Vile!’ or to nobles, ‘Wicked!’? | 18 Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly? | 18 王たる者に向かって『よこしまな者』と言い、つかさたる者に向かって、『悪しき者』と言うことができるであろうか。 |
| 34:19 Who doesn’t respect the persons of princes, nor respects the rich more than the poor; for they all are the work of his hands. | 19 How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands. | 19 神は君たる者をもかたより見られることなく、富める者を貧しき者にまさって顧みられることはない。彼らは皆み手のわざだからである。 |
| 34:20 In a moment they die, even at midnight. The people are shaken and pass away. The mighty are taken away without a hand. | 20 In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand. | 20 彼らはまたたく間に死に、民は夜の間に振われて、消えうせ、力ある者も人手によらずに除かれる。 |
| 34:21 “For his eyes are on the ways of a man. He sees all his goings. | 21 For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings. | 21 神の目が人の道の上にあって、そのすべての歩みを見られるからだ。 |
| 34:22 There is no darkness, nor thick gloom, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. | 22 There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. | 22 悪を行う者には身を隠すべき暗やみもなく、暗黒もない。 |
| 34:23 For he doesn’t need to consider a man further, that he should go before God in judgment. | 23 For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God. | 23 人がさばきのために神の前に出るとき、神は人のために時を定めておかれない。 |
| 34:24 He breaks in pieces mighty men in ways past finding out, and sets others in their place. | 24 He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead. | 24 彼は力ある者をも調べることなく打ち滅ぼし、他の人々を立てて、これに替えられる。 |
| 34:25 Therefore he takes knowledge of their works. He overturns them in the night, so that they are destroyed. | 25 Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed. | 25 このように、神は彼らのわざを知り、夜の間に彼らをくつがえされるので、彼らはやがて滅びる。 |
| 34:26 He strikes them as wicked men in the open sight of others; | 26 He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others; | 26 彼は人々の見る所で、彼らをその悪のために撃たれる。 |
| 34:27 because they turned aside from following him, and wouldn’t pay attention to any of his ways, | 27 Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways: | 27 これは彼らがそむいて彼に従わず、その道を全く顧みないからだ。 |
| 34:28 so that they caused the cry of the poor to come to him. He heard the cry of the afflicted. | 28 So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. | 28 こうして彼らは貧しき者の叫びを彼のもとにいたらせ、悩める者の叫びを彼に聞かせる。 |
| 34:29 When he gives quietness, who then can condemn? When he hides his face, who then can see him? Alike whether to a nation, or to a man, | 29 When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only: | 29 彼が黙っておられるとき、だれが非難することができようか。彼が顔を隠されるとき、だれが彼を見ることができようか。一国の上にも、一人の上にも同様だ。 |
| 34:30 that the godless man may not reign, that there be no one to ensnare the people. | 30 That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared. | 30 これは神を信じない者が世を治めることがなく、民をわなにかける事のないようにするためである。 |
| 34:31 “For has any said to God, ‘I am guilty, but I will not offend any more. | 31 Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more: | 31 だれが神に向かって言ったか、『わたしは罪を犯さないのに、懲らしめられた。 |
| 34:32 Teach me that which I don’t see. If I have done iniquity, I will do it no more’? | 32 That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more. | 32 わたしの見ないものをわたしに教えられたい。もしわたしが悪い事をしたなら、重ねてこれをしない』と。 |
| 34:33 Shall his recompense be as you desire, that you refuse it? For you must choose, and not I.Therefore speak what you know. | 33 Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest. | 33 あなたが拒むゆえに、彼はあなたの好むように報いをされるであろうか。あなたみずから選ぶがよい、わたしはしない。あなたの知るところを言いなさい。 |
| 34:34 Men of understanding will tell me, yes, every wise man who hears me: | 34 Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me. | 34 悟りある人々はわたしに言うだろう、わたしに聞くところの知恵ある人は言うだろう、 |
| 34:35‘Job speaks without knowledge. His words are without wisdom.’ | 35 Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom. | 35 『ヨブの言うところは知識がなく、その言葉は悟りがない』と。 |
| 34:36 I wish that Job were tried to the end, because of his answering like wicked men. | 36 My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men. | 36 どうかヨブが終りまで試みられるように、彼は悪人のように答えるからである。 |
| 34:37 For he adds rebellion to his sin. He claps his hands among us, and multiplies his words against God.” | 37 For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God. | 37 彼は自分の罪に、とがを加え、われわれの中にあって手をうち、神に逆らって、その言葉をしげくする」。 |
