Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Elihu also proceeded, and said,
1ΠΡΟΣΘΕΙΣ δὲ ἔτι Ἐλιοὺς λέγει·
2Suffer me a little, and I will shew thee that I have yet to speak on God’s behalf.
2μεῖνόν με μικρὸν ἔτι, ἵνα διδάξω σε· ἔτι γὰρ ἐν ἐμοί ἐστι λέξις.
3I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.
3ἀναλαβὼν τὴν ἐπιστήμην μου μακράν, ἔργοις δέ μου δίκαια ἐρῶ ἐπ᾿ ἀληθείας
4For truly my words shall not be false: he that is perfect in knowledge is with thee.
4καὶ οὐκ ἄδικα ρήματα ἀδίκως συνιεῖς.
5Behold, God is mighty, and despiseth not any: he is mighty in strength and wisdom.
5γίνωσκε δὲ ὅτι ὁ Κύριος οὐ μὴ ἀποποιήσηται τὸν ἄκακον. δυνατὸς ἰσχύϊ καρδίας
6He preserveth not the life of the wicked: but giveth right to the poor.
6ἀσεβῆ οὐ μὴ ζωοποιήσει καὶ κρίμα πτωχῶν δώσει.
7He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.
7οὐκ ἀφελεῖ ἀπὸ δικαίου ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ· καὶ μετὰ βασιλέων εἰς θρόνον καὶ καθιεῖ αὐτοὺς εἰς νῖκος, καὶ ὑψωθήσονται.
8And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;
8καὶ οἱ πεπεδημένοι ἐν χειροπέδαις συσχεθήσονται ἐν σχοινίοις πενίας,
9Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.
9καὶ ἀναγγελεῖ αὐτοῖς τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ παραπτώματα αὐτῶν, ὅτι ἰσχύσουσιν.
10He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
10ἀλλὰ τοῦ δικαίου εἰσακούσεται· καὶ εἶπεν ὅτι ἐπιστραφήσονται ἐξ ἀδικίας.
11If they obey and serve him , they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
11ἐὰν ἀκούσωσι καὶ δουλεύσωσι, συντελέσουσι τὰς ἡμέρας αὐτῶν ἐν ἀγαθοῖς καὶ τὰ ἔτη αὐτῶν ἐν εὐπρεπείαις.
12But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.
12ἀσεβεῖς δὲ οὐ διασῴζει παρὰ τὸ μὴ βούλεσθαι αὐτοὺς εἰδέναι τὸν Κύριον καὶ διότι νουθετούμενοι ἀνήκοοι ἦσαν.
13But the hypocrites in heart heap up wrath: they cry not when he bindeth them.
13καὶ ὑποκριταὶ καρδίᾳ τάξουσι θυμόν· οὐ βοήσονται, ὅτι ἔδησεν αὐτούς.
14They die in youth, and their life is among the unclean.
14ἀποθάνοι τοίνυν ἐν νεότητι ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτῶν, ἡ δὲ ζωὴ αὐτῶν τιτρωσκομένη ὑπὸ ἀγγέλων,
15He delivereth the poor in his affliction, and openeth their ears in oppression.
15ἀνθ᾿ ὧν ἔθλιψαν ἀσθενῆ καὶ ἀδύνατον, κρίμα δὲ πρᾳέων ἐκθήσει.
16Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which should be set on thy table should be full of fatness.
16καὶ προσέτι ἠπάτησέ σε ἐκ στόματος ἐχθροῦ· ἄβυσσος, κατάχυσις ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς, καὶ κατέβη τράπεζά σου πλήρης πιότητος.
17But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold on thee .
17οὐχ ὑστερήσει δὲ ἀπὸ δικαίων κρίμα,
18Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee.
18θυμὸς δὲ ἐπ᾿ ἀσεβεῖς ἔσται δι᾿ ἀσέβειαν δώρων, ὧν ἐδέχοντο ἐπ᾿ ἀδικίαις.
19Will he esteem thy riches? no , not gold, nor all the forces of strength.
19μή σε ἐκκλινάτω ἑκὼν ὁ νοῦς δεήσεως ἐν ἀνάγκῃ ὄντων ἀδυνάτων, καὶ πάντας τοὺς κραταιοῦντας ἰσχύν.
20Desire not the night, when people are cut off in their place.
20μὴ ἐξελκύσῃς τὴν νύκτα τοῦ ἀναβῆναι λαοὺς ἀντ᾿ αὐτῶν·
21Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.
21ἀλλὰ φύλαξαι μὴ πράξῃς ἄτοπα· ἐπὶ τούτων γὰρ ἐξείλω ἀπὸ πτωχείας.
22Behold, God exalteth by his power: who teacheth like him?
22ἰδοὺ ὁ Ἰσχυρὸς κραταιώσει ἐν ἰσχύϊ αὐτοῦ· τίς γάρ ἐστι κατ᾿ αὐτὸν δυνάστης;
23Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity?
23τίς δέ ἐστιν ὁ ἐτάζων αὐτοῦ τὰ ἔργα; ἢ τίς ὁ εἰπών· ἔπραξεν ἄδικα;
24Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold.
24μνήσθητι, ὅτι μεγάλα ἐστὶν αὐτοῦ τὰ ἔργα, ὧν ἦρξαν ἄνδρες.
25Every man may see it; man may behold it afar off.
25πᾶς ἄνθρωπος εἶδεν ἐν ἑαυτῷ, ὅσοι τιτρωσκόμενοί εἰσι βροτοί.
26Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out.
26ἰδοὺ ὁ Ἰσχυρὸς πολύς, καὶ οὐ γνωσόμεθα· ἀριθμὸς ἐτῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀπέραντος.
27For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof:
27ἀριθμηταὶ δὲ αὐτῷ σταγόνες ὑετοῦ, καὶ ἐπιχυθήσονται ὑετῷ εἰς νεφέλην·
28Which the clouds do drop and distil upon man abundantly.
28ρυήσονται παλαιώματα, ἐσκίασε δὲ νέφη ἐπὶ ἀμυθήτων βροτῶν. 28α ὥραν ἔθετο κτήνεσιν, οἴδασι δὲ κοίτης τάξιν. 28β ἐπὶ τούτοις πᾶσιν οὐκ ἐξίσταταί σου ἡ διάνοια οὐδὲ διαλλάσσεταί σου ἡ καρδία ἀπὸ σώματος;
29Also can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, or the noise of his tabernacle?
29καὶ ἐὰν συνῇ ἀπεκτάσεις νεφέλης, ἰσότητα σκηνῆς αὐτοῦ,
30Behold, he spreadeth his light upon it, and covereth the bottom of the sea.
30ἰδοὺ ἐκτενεῖ ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν ἠδὼ καὶ ριζώματα τῆς θαλάσσης ἐκάλυψεν·
31For by them judgeth he the people; he giveth meat in abundance.
31ἐν γὰρ αὐτοῖς κρινεῖ λαούς, δώσει τροφὴν τῷ ἰσχύοντι.
32With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it not to shine by the cloud that cometh betwixt.
32ἐπὶ χειρῶν ἐκάλυψε φῶς καὶ ἐνετείλατο περὶ αὐτῆς ἐν ἀπαντῶντι·
33The noise thereof sheweth concerning it, the cattle also concerning the vapour.
33ἀναγγελεῖ περὶ αὐτοῦ φίλον αὐτοῦ Κύριος, κτῆσις καὶ περὶ ἀδικίας.
