Job 41
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Smith–Van Dyck Arabic Bible (فان دايك)
1(40-25) Canst thou draw out leviathan with a fish-hook? or press down his tongue with a cord?
1«أَتَصْطَادُ لَوِيَاثَانَ بِشِصٍّ، أَوْ تَضْغَطُ لِسَانَهُ بِحَبْلٍ؟
2(40-26) Canst thou put a ring into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a hook?
2أَتَضَعُ أَسَلَةً فِي خَطْمِهِ، أَمْ تَثْقُبُ فَكَّهُ بِخِزَامَةٍ؟
3(40-27) Will he make many supplications unto thee? or will he speak soft words unto thee?
3أَيُكْثِرُ ٱلتَّضَرُّعَاتِ إِلَيْكَ، أَمْ يَتَكَلَّمُ مَعَكَ بِٱللِّينِ؟
4(40-28) Will he make a covenant with thee, that thou shouldest take him for a servant for ever?
4هَلْ يَقْطَعُ مَعَكَ عَهْدًا فَتَتَّخِذَهُ عَبْدًا مُؤَبَّدًا؟
5(40-29) Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? Or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?
5أَتَلْعَبُ مَعَهُ كَٱلْعُصْفُورِ، أَوْ تَرْبِطُهُ لِأَجْلِ فَتَيَاتِكَ؟
6(40-30) Will the bands of fishermen make a banquet of him? Will they part him among the merchants?
6هَلْ تَحْفِرُ جَمَاعَةُ ٱلصَّيَّادِينَ لِأَجْلِهِ حُفْرَةً، أَوْ يَقْسِمُونَهُ بَيْنَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ؟
7(40-31) Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish-spears?
7أَتَمْلَأُ جِلْدَهُ حِرَابًا وَرَأْسَهُ بِإِلَالِ ٱلسَّمَكِ؟
8(40-32) Lay thy hand upon him; think upon the battle, thou wilt do so no more.
8ضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَيْهِ. لَا تَعُدْ تَذْكُرُ ٱلْقِتَالَ!
9(41-1) Behold, the hope of him is in vain; shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?
9هُوَذَا ٱلرَّجَاءُ بِهِ كَاذِبٌ. أَلَا يُكَبُّ أَيْضًا بِرُؤْيَتِهِ؟
10(41-2) None is so fierce that dare stir him up; who then is able to stand before Me?
10لَيْسَ مِنْ شُجَاعٍ يُوقِظُهُ، فَمَنْ يَقِفُ إِذًا بِوَجْهِي؟
11(41-3) Who hath given Me anything beforehand, that I should repay him? Whatsoever is under the whole heaven is Mine.
11مَنْ تَقَدَّمَنِي فَأُوفِيَهُ؟ مَا تَحْتَ كُلِّ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ هُوَ لِي.
12(41-4) Would I keep silence concerning his boastings, or his proud talk, or his fair array of words?
12«لَا أَسْكُتُ عَنْ أَعْضَائِهِ، وَخَبَرِ قُوَّتِهِ وَبَهْجَةِ عُدَّتِهِ.
13(41-5) Who can uncover the face of his garment? Who shall come within his double bridle?
13مَنْ يَكْشِفُ وَجْهَ لِبْسِهِ، وَمَنْ يَدْنُو مِنْ مَثْنَى لَجَمَتِهِ؟
14(41-6) Who can open the doors of his face? Round about his teeth is terror.
14مَنْ يَفْتَحُ مِصْرَاعَيْ فَمِهِ؟ دَائِرَةُ أَسْنَانِهِ مُرْعِبَةٌ.
15(41-7) His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.
15فَخْرُهُ مَجَانُّ مَانِعَةٌ مُحَكَّمَةٌ مَضْغُوطَةٌ بِخَاتِمٍ.
16(41-8) One is so near to another, that no air can come between them.
16ٱلْوَاحِدُ يَمَسُّ ٱلْآخَرَ، فَٱلرِّيحُ لَا تَدْخُلُ بَيْنَهَا.
17(41-9) They are joined one to another; they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.
17كُلٌّ مِنْهَا مُلْتَصِقٌ بِصَاحِبِهِ، مُتَلَكِّدَةً لَا تَنْفَصِلُ.
18(41-10) His sneezings flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning.
18عُطَاسُهُ يَبْعَثُ نُورًا، وَعَيْنَاهُ كَهُدُبِ ٱلصُّبْحِ.
19(41-11) Out of his mouth go burning torches, and sparks of fire leap forth.
19مِنْ فِيهِ تَخْرُجُ مَصَابِيحُ. شَرَارُ نَارٍ تَتَطَايَرُ مِنْهُ.
20(41-12) Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot and burning rushes.
20مِنْ مَنْخَرَيْهِ يَخْرُجُ دُخَانٌ كَأَنَّهُ مِنْ قِدْرٍ مَنْفُوخٍ أَوْ مِنْ مِرْجَلٍ.
21(41-13) His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.
21نَفَسُهُ يُشْعِلُ جَمْرًا، وَلَهِيبٌ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ فِيهِ.
22(41-14) In his neck abideth strength, and dismay danceth before him.
22فِي عُنُقِهِ تَبِيتُ ٱلْقُوَّةُ، وَأَمَامَهُ يَدُوسُ ٱلْهَوْلُ.
23(41-15) The flakes of his flesh are joined together; they are firm upon him; they cannot be moved.
23مَطَاوِي لَحْمِهِ مُتَلَاصِقَةٌ مَسْبُوكَةٌ عَلَيْهِ لَا تَتَحَرَّكُ.
24(41-16) His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, firm as the nether millstone.
24قَلْبُهُ صُلْبٌ كَٱلْحَجَرِ، وَقَاسٍ كَٱلرَّحَى.
25(41-17) When he raiseth himself up, the mighty are afraid; by reason of despair they are beside themselves.
25عِنْدَ نُهُوضِهِ تَفْزَعُ ٱلْأَقْوِيَاءُ. مِنَ ٱلْمَخَاوِفِ يَتِيهُونَ.
26(41-18) If one lay at him with the sword, it will not hold; nor the spear, the dart, nor the pointed shaft.
26سَيْفُ ٱلَّذِي يَلْحَقُهُ لَا يَقُومُ، وَلَا رُمْحٌ وَلَا مِزْرَاقٌ وَلَا دِرْعٌ.
27(41-19) He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood.
27يَحْسِبُ ٱلْحَدِيدَ كَٱلتِّبْنِ، وَٱلنُّحَاسَ كَٱلْعُودِ ٱلنَّخِرِ.
28(41-20) The arrow cannot make him flee; slingstones are turned with him into stubble.
28لَا يَسْتَفِزُّهُ نُبْلُ ٱلْقَوْسِ. حِجَارَةُ ٱلْمِقْلَاعِ تَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ كَٱلْقَشِّ.
29(41-21) Clubs are accounted as stubble; he laugheth at the rattling of the javelin.
29يَحْسَبُ ٱلْمِقْمَعَةَ كَقَشٍّ، وَيَضْحَكُ عَلَى ٱهْتِزَازِ ٱلرُّمْحِ.
30(41-22) Sharpest potsherds are under him; he spreadeth a threshing-sledge upon the mire.
30تَحْتَهُ قُطَعُ خَزَفٍ حَادَّةٌ. يُمَدِّدُ نَوْرَجًا عَلَى ٱلطِّينِ.
31(41-23) He maketh the deep to boil like a pot; he maketh the sea like a seething mixture.
31يَجْعَلُ ٱلْعُمْقَ يَغْلِي كَٱلْقِدْرِ، وَيَجْعَلُ ٱلْبَحْرَ كَقِدْرِ عِطَارَةٍ.
32(41-24) He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary.
32يُضِيءُ ٱلسَّبِيلُ وَرَاءَهُ فَيُحْسَبُ ٱللُّجُّ أَشْيَبَ.
33(41-25) Upon earth there is not his like, who is made to be fearless.
33لَيْسَ لَهُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ نَظِيرٌ. صُنِعَ لِعَدَمِ ٱلْخَوْفِ.
34(41-26) He looketh at all high things; he is king over all the proud beasts.
34يُشْرِفُ عَلَى كُلِّ مُتَعَالٍ. هُوَ مَلِكٌ عَلَى كُلِّ بَنِي ٱلْكِبْرِيَاءِ».
