Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ἰὼβ, λέγει,
1Then Job answered and said,
2Ἕως τίνος ἔγκοπον ποιήσετε ψυχήν μου, καὶ καθαιρεῖτέ με λόγοις; γνῶτε μόνον ὅτι ὁ Κύριος ἐποίησέ με οὕτως.
2How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?
3Καταλαλεῖτέ μου, οὐκ αἰσχυνόμενοί με ἐπίκεισθέ μοι.
3These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed that ye make yourselves strange to me.
4Ναὶ δὴ ἐπʼ ἀληθείας ἐγὼ ἐπλανήθην, παρʼ ἐμοὶ δὲ αὐλίζεται πλάνος· λαλῆσαι ῥῆματα ἃ οὐκ ἔδει, τὰ δὲ ῥήματά μου πλανᾶται καὶ οὐκ ἐπὶ καιροῦ.
4And be it indeed that I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.
5Ἔα δὲ, ὅτι ἐπʼ ἐμοὶ μεγαλύνεσθε, ἐνάλλεσθε δέ μοι ὀνείδει.
5If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach:
6Γνῶτε οὖν ὅτι Κύριός ἐστιν ὁ ταράξας, ὀχύρωμα δὲ αὐτοῦ ἐπʼ ἐμὲ ὕψωσεν.
6Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.
7Ἰδοὺ γελῶ ὀνείδει, οὐ λαλήσω· κεκράξομαι, καὶ οὐδαμοῦ κρίμα.
7Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.
8Κύκλῳ περιῳκοδόμημαι, καὶ οὐ μὴ διαβῶ· ἐπὶ πρόσωπόν μου σκότος ἔθετο.
8He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.
9Τὴν δὲ δόξαν ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ ἐξέδυσεν, ἀφεῖλε δὲ στέφανον ἀπὸ κεφαλῆς μου.
9He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.
10Διέσπασέ με κύκλῳ καὶ ᾠχόμην, ἐξέκοψε δὲ ὥσπερ δένδρον τὴν ἐλπίδα μου.
10He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.
11Δεινῶς δέ μοι ὀργῇ ἐχρήσατο, ἡγήσατο δέ με ὥσπερ ἐχθρόν.
11He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me unto him as one of his enemies.
12Ὁμοθυμαδὸν δὲ ἦλθον τὰ πειρατήρια αὐτοῦ ἐπʼ ἐμοὶ, ταῖς ὁδοῖς μου ἐκύκλωσαν ἐγκάθετοι.
12His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle.
13Ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ ἀδελφοί μου ἀπέστησαν, ἔγνωσαν ἀλλοτρίους ἢ ἐμέ· φίλοι δέ μου ἀνελεήμονες γεγόνασιν·
13He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily estranged from me.
14Οὐ προσεποιήσαντό με οἱ ἐγγύτατοί μου, καὶ οἱ εἰδότες μου τὸ ὄνομα ἐπελάθοντό μου.
14My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.
15Γείτονες οἰκίας, θεράπαιναί τε μοῦ, ἀλλογενὴς ἤμην ἐναντίον αὐτῶν.
15They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.
16Θεράποντά μου ἐκάλεσα, καὶ οὐχ ὑπήκουσε· στόμα δέ μου ἐδέετο.
16I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I intreated him with my mouth.
17Καὶ ἱκέτευον τὴν γυναῖκά μου, προσεκαλούμην δὲ καλακευων υἱοὺς παλλακίδων μου·
17My breath is strange to my wife, though I intreated for the children’s sake of mine own body.
18Οἱ δὲ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνά με ἀπεποιήσαντο, ὅταν ἀναστῶ, κατʼ ἐμοῦ λαλοῦσιν.
18Yea, young children despised me; I arose, and they spake against me.
19Ἐβδελύξαντό με οἱ ἰδόντες με· οὓς δὴ ἠγαπήκειν, ἐπανέστησάν μοι.
19All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.
20Ἐν δέρματί μου ἐσάπησαν αἱ σάρκες μου, τὰ δὲ ὀστᾶ μου ἐν ὀδοῦσιν ἔχεται.
20My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
21Ἐλεήσατέ με, ἐλεήσατέ με, ὦ φίλοι, χεὶρ γὰρ Κυρίου ἡ ἁψαμένη μου ἐστί.
21Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.
22Διατί με διώκετε ὥσπερ καὶ ὁ Κύριος; ἀπὸ δὲ σαρκῶν μου οὐκ ἐμπίπλασθε;
22Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?
23Τίς γὰρ ἂν δοίη γραφῆναι τὰ ῥήματά μου, τεθῆναι δὲ αὐτὰ ἐν βιβλίῳ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα,
23Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
24ἐν γραφείῳ σιδηρῷ καὶ μολίβῳ, ἢ ἐν πέτραις ἐγγλυφῆναι;
24That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!
25Οἶδα γὰρ ὅτι ἀένναός ἐστιν ὁ ἐκλύειν με μέλλων,
25For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26ἐπὶ γῆς ἀναστῆσαι τὸ δέρμα μου τὸ ἀναντλοῦν ταῦτα· παρὰ γὰρ Κυρίου ταῦτά μοι συνετελέσθη,
26And though after my skin worms destroy this body , yet in my flesh shall I see God:
27ἃ ἐγὼ ἐμαυτῷ συνεπίσταμαι, ἃ ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου ἑώρακε, καὶ οὐκ ἄλλος, πάντα δέ μοι συντετέλεσται ἐν κόλπῳ.
27Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
28Εἰ δὲ καὶ ἐρεῖτε, τί ἐροῦμεν ἔναντι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ῥίζαν λόγου εὑρήσομεν ἐν αὐτῷ;
28But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?
29Εὐλαβήθητε δὴ καὶ ὑμεῖς ἀπὸ ἐπικαλύμματος, θυμὸς γὰρ ἐπʼ ἀνόμους ἐπελεύσεται· καὶ τότε γνώσονται, ποῦ ἐστιν αὐτῶν ἡ ὕλη
29Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.
