King James Version with Apocrypha
1ἌΝΘΡΩΠΟΣ τις ἦν ἐν χώρᾳ τῇ Αὐσίτιδι, ᾧ ὄνομα Ἰὼβ, καὶ ἦν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος ἀληθινὸς, ἄμεμπτος, δίκαιος, θεοσεβὴς, ἀπεχόμενος ἀπὸ παντὸς πονηροῦ πράγματος.
1There 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.
2Ἐγένοντο δὲ αὐτῷ υἱοὶ ἑπτὰ καὶ θυγατέρες τρεῖς.
2And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.
3Καὶ ἦν τὰ κτήνη αὐτοῦ πρόβατα ἑπτακισχίλια, κάμηλοι τρισχίλιαι, ζεύγη βοῶν πεντακόσια, θήλειαι ὄνοι νομάδες πεντακόσιαι, καὶ ὑπηρεσία πολλὴ σφόδρα, καὶ ἔργα μεγάλα ἦν αὐτῷ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἦν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος εὐγενὴς τῶν ἀφʼ ἡλίου ἀνατολῶν.
3His 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.
4Συμπορευόμενοι δὲ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ πρὸς ἀλλήλους, ἐποιοῦσαν πότον καθʼ ἑκάστην ἡμέραν, συμπαραλαμβάνοντες ἅμα καὶ τὰς τρεῖς ἀδελφὰς αὐτῶν, ἐσθίειν καὶ πίνειν μετʼ αὐτῶν.
4And 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.
5Καὶ ὡς ἂν συνετελέσθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ πότου, ἀπέστελλεν Ἰὼβ καὶ ἐκαθάριζεν αὐτοὺς ἀνιστάμενος τοπρωῒ, καὶ προσέφερε περὶ αὐτῶν θυσίας, κατὰ τὸν ἀριθμὸν αὐτῶν, καὶ μόσχον ἕνα περὶ ἁμαρτίας περὶ τῶν ψυχῶν αὐτῶν· ἔλεγε γὰρ Ἰὼβ, μή ποτε οἱ υἱοί μου ἐν τῇ διανοίᾳ αὐτῶν κακὰ ἐνενόησαν πρὸς Θεόν· οὕτως οὖν ἐποίει Ἰὼβ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας.
5And 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.
6Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἦλθον οἱ ἄγγελοι τοῦ Θεοῦ παραστῆναι ἐνώπιον τοῦ Κυρίου, καὶ ὁ διάβολος ἦλθε μετʼ αὐτῶν.
6¶ Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD , and Satan came also among them.
7Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος τῷ διαβόλῳ, πόθεν παραγέγονας; καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ διάβολος τῷ Κυρίῳ, εἶπε, περιελθὼν τὴν γῆν καὶ ἐμπεριπατήσας τὴν ὑπʼ οὐρανὸν πάρειμι.
7And 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.
8Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ Κύριος, προσέσχες τῇ διανοίᾳ σου κατὰ τοῦ παιδός μου Ἰώβ; ὅτι οὐκ ἔστι κατʼ αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς; ἄνθρωπος ἄμεμπτος, ἀληθινὸς, θεοσεβὴς, ἀπεχόμενος ἀπὸ παντὸς πονηροῦ πράγματος;
8And 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?
9Ἀπεκρίθη δὲ ὁ διάβολος, καὶ εἶπεν ἐναντίον τοῦ Κυρίου, μὴ δωρεὰν Ἰὼβ σέβεται τὸν Κύριον;
9Then Satan answered the LORD , and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
10Οὐ σὺ περιέφραξας τὰ ἔξω αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰ ἔσω τῆς οἰκίας αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰ ἔξω πάντων τῶν ὄντων αὐτοῦ κύκλῳ; τὰ δὲ ἔργα τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ εὐλόγησας; καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτοῦ πολλὰ ἐποίησας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς;
10Hast 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.
11Ἀλλὰ ἀπόστειλον τὴν χεῖρά σου, καὶ ἅψαι πάντων ὧν ἔχει· ἦ μὴν εἰς πρόσωπόν σε εὐλογήσει.
11But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.
12Τότε εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος τῷ διαβόλῳ, ἰδοὺ πάντα ὅσα ἐστὶν αὐτῷ, δίδωμι ἐν τῇ χειρί σου, ἀλλʼ αὐτοῦ μὴ ἅψῃ· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ διάβολος παρὰ τοῦ Κυρίου.
12And 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 .
13Καὶ ἦν ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη, οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰὼβ καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτοῦ ἔπινον οἶνον ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτῶν τοῦ πρεσβυτέρου.
13¶ And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house:
14Καὶ ἰδοὺ ἄγγελος ἦλθε πρὸς Ἰὼβ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, τὰ ζεύγη τῶν βοῶν ἠροτρία, καὶ αἱ θήλειαι ὄνοι ἐβόσκοντο ἐχόμεναι αὐτῶν,
14And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:
15καὶ ἐλθόντες οἱ αἰχμαλωτεύοντες ᾐχμαλώτευσαν αὐτὰς, καὶ τοὺς παῖδας ἀπέκτειναν ἐν μαχαίραις· σωθεὶς δὲ ἐγὼ μόνος ἦλθον τοῦ ἀπαγγεῖλαί σοι.
15And 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.
16Ἔτι τούτου λαλοῦντος, ἦλθεν ἕτερος ἄγγελος, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς Ἰὼβ, πῦρ ἔπεσεν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ κατέκαυσε τὰ πρόβατα, καὶ τοὺς ποιμένας κατέφαγεν ὁμοίως· σωθεὶς δέ ἐγὼ μόνος ἦλθον τοῦ ἀπαγγεῖλαί σοι.
16While 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.
17Ἔτι τούτου λαλοῦντος, ἦλθεν ἕτερος ἄγγελος, καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Ἰὼβ, οἱ ἱππεῖς ἐποίησαν ἡμῖν κεφαλᾶς τρεῖς, καὶ ἐκύκλωσαν τὰς καμήλους, καὶ ᾐχμαλώτευσαν αὐτὰς, καὶ τοὺς παῖδας ἀπέκτειναν ἐν μαχαίραις· ἐσώθην δὲ ἐγὼ μόνος, καὶ ἦλθον τοῦ ἀπαγγεῖλαί σοι.
17While 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.
18Ἔτι τούτου λαλοῦντος, ἄλλος ἄγγελος ἔρχεται λέγων τῷ Ἰὼβ, τῶν υἱῶν σου καὶ τῶν θυγατέρων σου ἐσθίοντων καὶ πινόντων παρὰ τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτῶν τῷ πρεσβυτέρῳ,
18While 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:
19ἐξαίφνης πνεῦμα μέγα ἐπῆλθεν ἐκ τῆς ἐρήμου, καὶ ἥψατο τῶν τεσσάρων γωνιῶν τῆς οἰκίας, καὶ ἔπεσεν ἡ οἰκία ἐπὶ τὰ παιδία σου, καὶ ἐτελεύτησαν· ἐσώθην δὲ ἐγὼ μόνος, καὶ ἦλθον τοῦ ἀπαγγεῖλαί σοι.
19And, 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.
20Οὕτως ἀναστὰς Ἰὼβ ἔῤῥξε τὰ ἱμάτια ἑαυτοῦ, καὶ ἐκείρατο τὴν κόμην τῆς κεφαλῆς, καὶ πεσὼν χαμαὶ, προσεκύνησε, καὶ εἶπεν,
20Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,
21αὐτὸς γυμνὸς ἐξῆλθον ἐκ κοιλίας μητρός μου, γυμνὸς καὶ ἀπελεύσομαι ἐκεῖ· ὁ Κύριος ἔδωκεν, ὁ Κύριος ἀφείλατο· ὡς τῷ Κυρίῳ ἔδοξεν, οὕτως ἐγένετο· εἴη τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου εὐλογημένον.
21And 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 .
22Ἐν τούτοις πᾶσι τοῖς συμβεβηκόσιν αὐτῷ οὐδὲν ἥμαρτεν Ἰὼβ ἐναντίον τοῦ Κυρίου· καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκεν ἀφροσύνην τῷ Θεῷ.
22In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.
