| איוב 7 | Job 7 | |||
| 1 הֲלֹא־צָבָ֣א לֶאֱנ֣וֹשׁ [3] VDechi *על־**עֲלֵי־אָ֑רֶץ [2] Etnachta יָמָֽיו׃ [1] Silluq |
1 “Isn’t a man forced to labor on earth? Aren’t his days like the days of a hired hand? [3] |
|||
| 2 כְּעֶ֥בֶד יִשְׁאַף־צֵ֑ל [2] Etnachta יְקַוֶּ֥ה פָעֳלֽוֹ׃ [1] Silluq |
2 As a servant who earnestly desires the shadow, as a hireling who looks for his wages, [2] |
|||
| 3 כֵּ֤ן הָנְחַ֣לְתִּי לִ֭י [3] Dechi יַרְחֵי־שָׁ֑וְא [2] Etnachta מִנּוּ־לִֽי׃ [1] Silluq |
3 so I am made to possess months of misery, wearisome nights are appointed to me. [3] |
|||
| 4 אִם־שָׁכַ֗בְתִּי [3] Revi'i וְאָמַ֗רְתִּי [3] Revi'i מָתַ֣י אָ֭קוּם [3] Dechi וּמִדַּד־עָ֑רֶב [2] Etnachta עֲדֵי־נָֽשֶׁף׃ [1] Silluq |
4 When I lie down, I say, ‘When will I arise, and the night be gone?’ I toss and turn until the dawning of the day. [3] |
|||
| 5 לָ֘בַ֤שׁ בְּשָׂרִ֣י רִ֭מָּה [3] Dechi *וגיש **וְג֣וּשׁ עָפָ֑ר [2] Etnachta וַיִּמָּאֵֽס׃ [1] Silluq |
5 My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust. My skin closes up, and breaks out afresh. [3] |
|||
| 6 יָמַ֣י קַ֭לּוּ [3] Dechi מִנִּי־אָ֑רֶג [2] Etnachta בְּאֶ֣פֶס תִּקְוָֽה׃ [1] Silluq |
6 My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle, and are spent without hope. [3] |
|||
| 7 זְ֭כֹר [3] Dechi כִּי־ר֣וּחַ חַיָּ֑י [2] Etnachta לִרְא֥וֹת טֽוֹב׃ [1] Silluq |
7 Oh remember that my life is a breath. My eye will no more see good. [3] |
|||
| 8 לֹֽא־תְ֭שׁוּרֵנִי [3] Dechi עֵ֣ין רֹ֑אִי [2] Etnachta וְאֵינֶֽנִּי׃ [1] Silluq |
8 The eye of him who sees me will see me no more. Your eyes will be on me, but I will not be. [3] |
|||
| 9 כָּלָ֣ה עָ֭נָן [3] Dechi וַיֵּלַ֑ךְ [2] Etnachta לֹ֣א יַעֲלֶֽה׃ [1] Silluq |
9 As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away, so he who goes down to Sheol will come up no more. [3] |
|||
| 10 לֹא־יָשׁ֣וּב ע֣וֹד [3] VDechi לְבֵית֑וֹ [2] Etnachta מְקֹמֽוֹ׃ [1] Silluq |
10 He will return no more to his house, neither will his place know him any more. [3] |
|||
| 11 גַּם־אֲנִי֮ [3] Sinnor לֹ֤א אֶחֱשָׂ֫ךְ פִּ֥י [2] Ole Veyored בְּצַ֣ר רוּחִ֑י [2] Etnachta בְּמַ֣ר נַפְשִֽׁי׃ [1] Silluq |
11 “Therefore I will not keep silent. I will speak in the anguish of my spirit. I will complain in the bitterness of my soul. [3] |
|||
| 12 הֲֽיָם־אָ֭נִי [3] Dechi אִם־תַּנִּ֑ין [2] Etnachta מִשְׁמָֽר׃ [1] Silluq |
12 Am I a sea, or a sea monster, that you put a guard over me? [3] |
|||
| 13 כִּֽי־אָ֭מַרְתִּי [3] Dechi תְּנַחֲמֵ֣נִי עַרְשִׂ֑י [2] Etnachta מִשְׁכָּבִֽי׃ [1] Silluq |
13 When I say, ‘My bed will comfort me. My couch will ease my complaint,’ [3] |
|||
| 14 וְחִתַּתַּ֥נִי בַחֲלֹמ֑וֹת [2] Etnachta |
14 then you scare me with dreams, and terrify me through visions: [2] |
|||
| 15 וַתִּבְחַ֣ר מַחֲנָ֣ק [3] VDechi נַפְשִׁ֑י [2] Etnachta מֵֽעַצְמוֹתָֽי׃ [1] Silluq |
15 so that my soul chooses strangling, death rather than my bones. [3] |
|||
| 16 מָ֭אַסְתִּי [3] Dechi לֹא־לְעֹלָ֣ם אֶֽחְיֶ֑ה [2] Etnachta כִּי־הֶ֥בֶל יָמָֽי׃ [1] Silluq |
16 I loathe my life. I don’t want to live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath. [3] |
|||
| 17 מָֽה־אֱ֭נוֹשׁ [3] Dechi כִּ֣י תְגַדְּלֶ֑נּוּ [2] Etnachta לִבֶּֽךָ׃ [1] Silluq |
17 What is man, that you should magnify him, that you should set your mind on him, [3] |
|||
| 18 וַתִּפְקְדֶ֥נּוּ לִבְקָרִ֑ים [2] Etnachta תִּבְחָנֶֽנּוּ׃ [1] Silluq |
18 that you should visit him every morning, and test him every moment? [2] |
|||
| 19 כַּ֭מָּה [3] Dechi לֹא־תִשְׁעֶ֣ה מִמֶּ֑נִּי [2] Etnachta עַד־בִּלְעִ֥י רֻקִּֽי׃ [1] Silluq |
19 How long will you not look away from me, nor leave me alone until I swallow down my spittle? [3] |
|||
| 20 חָטָ֡אתִי [4] Pazer מָ֤ה אֶפְעַ֨ל ׀ [4] Azla Legarmeh לָךְ֮ [3] Sinnor נֹצֵ֪ר הָאָ֫דָ֥ם [2] Ole Veyored לָ֑ךְ [2] Etnachta לְמַשָּֽׂא׃ [1] Silluq |
20 If I have sinned, what do I do to you, you watcher of men? Why have you set me as a mark for you, so that I am a burden to myself? [4] |
|||
| 21 וּמֶ֤ה ׀ [4] Mahpakh Legarmeh לֹא־תִשָּׂ֣א פִשְׁעִי֮ [3] Sinnor וְתַעֲבִ֪יר אֶת־עֲוֺ֫נִ֥י [2] Ole Veyored לֶעָפָ֣ר אֶשְׁכָּ֑ב [2] Etnachta וְאֵינֶֽנִּי׃ [1] Silluq פ |
21 Why do you not pardon my disobedience, and take away my iniquity? For now will I lie down in the dust. You will seek me diligently, but I will not be.” ¶ [4] |
