1E il Signore parlò di nuovo a Giobbe dal turbo, e disse:
1And the Lord answering Job out of the whirlwind, said:
2Cingiti ora i lombi, come un valente uomo; Io ti farò delle domande, e tu insegnami.
2Gird up thy loins like a man: I will ask thee, and do thou tell me.
3Annullerai tu pure il mio giudicio, E mi condannerai tu per giustificarti?
3Wilt thou make void my judgment: and condemn me, that thou mayst be justified?
4Hai tu un braccio simile a quel di Dio? O tuoni tu con la voce come egli?
4And hast thou an arm like God, and canst thou thunder with a voice like him?
5Adornati pur di magnificenza e di altezza; E vestiti di maestà e di gloria.
5Clothe thyself with beauty, and set thyself up on high and be glorious, and put on goodly garments.
6Spandi i furori dell'ira tua, E riguarda ogni altiero, ed abbassalo;
6Scatter the proud in thy indignation, and behold every arrogant man, and humble him.
7Riguarda ogni altiero, ed atterralo; E trita gli empi, e spronfondali;
7Look on all that are proud, and confound them, and crush the wicked in their place.
8Nascondili tutti nella polvere, E tura loro la faccia in grotte;
8Hide them in the dust together, and plunge their faces into the pit.
9Allora anch'io ti darò questa lode, Che la tua destra ti può salvare.
9Then I will confess that thy right hand is able to save thee.
10Ecco l'ippopotamo, il quale io ho fatto teco; Egli mangia l'erba come il bue.
10Behold behemoth whom I made with thee, he eateth grass like an ox.
11Ecco, la sua forza è ne' lombi, E la sua possa nei muscoli del suo ventre.
11His strength is in his loins, and his force in the navel of his belly.
12Egli rizza la sua coda come un cedro; Ed i nervi delle sue coscie sono intralciati.
12He setteth up his tail like a cedar, the sinews of his testicles are wrapped together.
13Le sue ossa son come sbarre di rame, Come mazze di ferro.
13His bones are like pipes of brass, his gristle like plates of iron.
14Egli è la principale delle opere di Dio; Sol colui che l'ha fatto può accostargli la sua spada.
14He is the beginning of the ways of God, who made him, he will apply his sword.
15Perchè i monti gli producono il pasco, Tutte le bestie della campagna vi scherzano.
15To him the mountains bring forth grass: there all the beasts of the field shall play.
16Egli giace sotto gli alberi ombrosi, In ricetti di canne e di paludi.
16He sleepeth under the shadow, in the covert of the reed, and in moist places.
17Gli alberi ombrosi lo coprono con l'ombra loro; I salci de' torrenti l'intorniano.
17The shades cover his shadow, the willows of the brook shall compass him about.
18Ecco, egli può far forza ad un fiume, sì che non corra; Egli si fida di potersi attrarre il Giordano nella gola.
18Behold, he will drink up a river, and not wonder: and he trusteth that the Jordan may run into his mouth.
19Prenderallo alcuno alla sua vista? Forera gli egli il naso, per mettervi de' lacci?
19In his eyes as with a hook he shall take him, and bore through his nostrils with stakes.
