JOB 5:14 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

MSG ^(8-16)“If I were in your shoes, I’d go straight to God,
  I’d throw myself on the mercy of God.
After all, he’s famous for great and unexpected acts;
  there’s no end to his surprises.
He gives rain, for instance, across the wide earth,
  sends water to irrigate the fields.
He raises up the down-and-out,
  gives firm footing to those sinking in grief.
He aborts the schemes of conniving crooks,
  so that none of their plots come to term.
He catches the know-it-alls in their conspiracies—
  all that intricate intrigue swept out with the trash!
Suddenly they’re disoriented, plunged into darkness;
  they can’t see to put one foot in front of the other.
But the downtrodden are saved by God,
  saved from the murderous plots, saved from the iron fist.
And so the poor continue to hope,
  while injustice is bound and gagged.

ClVg Per diem incurrent tenebras, et quasi in nocte, sic palpabunt in meridie.[fn]
(Per diem incurrent tenebras, and as_if in nocte, so palpabunt in meridie. )

5.14 Per diem incurrent. Quia in ipsa veritatis præsentia, perfidiæ errore cæcati sunt, videntes miracula Christi et de ejus deitate dubitantes. Quasi in nocte. Palpando quærimus quæ oculis non videmus: Judæi miracula viderant, et adhuc quasi palpantes quærebant: Si tu es Christus, dic nobis palam Joan. 10.. Sed horum manibus diu retineri non potuit Christus. Per diem incurrent tenebras. Ibid. Mens invidi cum de bono alieno affligitur, de radio solis obscuratur. Et quasi in nocte sic palpabunt in meridie. Dies boni operis in proximo exterius lucet: quasi in nocte palpant, quia, livore cæci, aliqua quæ reprehendant, invenire satagunt. Ecce Loth, id est, justus malis adversantibus intra domum recluditur et munitur, id est ad mentem revertitur et manet interius, Sodomitæ cæci circumeunt, id est, invidentes facta dictaque scrutantur, nec ostium, id est, aditum reprehensionis, inveniunt, sed parietem palpant, quia ubique laudabilis actio justi eis obviat. Palpabunt. Sed pauper spiritu, id est, qui apud se non est elatus: salvatur a gladio oris, id est, iniqua persuasione.

But horum manibus diu retineri not/no potuit Christus. Per diem incurrent tenebras. Ibid. Mens invidi when/with about bono alieno affligitur, about radio solis obscuratur. And as_if in nocte so palpabunt in meridie. The_day boni operis in the_next exterius lucet: as_if in nocte palpant, quia, livore cæci, aliqua which reprehendant, invenire satagunt. Behold Loth, id it_is, justus malis adversantibus intra home recluditur and munitur, id it_is to mentem revertitur and manet interius, Sodomitæ cæci circumeunt, id it_is, invidentes facts dictaque scrutantur, but_not ostium, id it_is, aditum reprehensionis, inveniunt, but parietem palpant, because ubique laudabilis actio justi to_them obviat. Palpabunt. But pauper spiritu, id it_is, who apud se not/no it_is elatus: salvatur from gladio oris, id it_is, iniqua persuasione.
