Job 20

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 respondens autem Sophar Naamathites dixit

2 idcirco cogitationes meae variae succedunt sibi et mens in diversa rapitur

3 doctrinam qua me arguis audiam et spiritus intellegentiae meae respondebit mihi

4 hoc scio a principio ex quo positus est homo super terram

5 quod laus impiorum brevis sit et gaudium hypocritae ad instar puncti

6 si ascenderit usque ad caelum superbia eius et caput eius nubes tetigerit

7 quasi sterquilinium in fine perdetur et qui eum viderant dicent ubi est

8 velut somnium avolans non invenietur transiet sicut visio nocturna

9 oculus qui eum viderat non videbit neque ultra intuebitur eum locus suus

10 filii eius adterentur egestate et manus illius reddent ei dolorem suum

11 ossa eius implebuntur vitiis adulescentiae eius et cum eo in pulverem dormient

12 cum enim dulce fuerit in ore eius malum abscondet illud sub lingua sua

13 parcet illi et non derelinquet illud et celabit in gutture suo

14 panis eius in utero illius vertetur in fel aspidum intrinsecus

15 divitias quas devoravit evomet et de ventre illius extrahet eas Deus

16 caput aspidum suget occidet eum lingua viperae

17 non videat rivulos fluminis torrentes mellis et butyri

18 luet quae fecit omnia nec tamen consumetur iuxta multitudinem adinventionum suarum sic et sustinebit

19 quoniam confringens nudavit pauperes domum rapuit et non aedificavit eam

20 nec est satiatus venter eius et cum habuerit quae cupierat possidere non poterit

21 non remansit de cibo eius et propterea nihil permanebit de bonis eius

22 cum satiatus fuerit artabitur aestuabit et omnis dolor inruet in eum

23 utinam impleatur venter eius ut emittat in eum iram furoris sui et pluat super illum bellum suum

24 fugiet arma ferrea et inruet in arcum aereum

25 eductus et egrediens de vagina sua et fulgurans in amaritudine sua vadent et venient super eum horribiles

26 omnes tenebrae absconditae sunt in occultis eius devorabit eum ignis qui non succenditur adfligetur relictus in tabernaculo suo

27 revelabunt caeli iniquitatem eius et terra consurget adversus eum

28 apertum erit germen domus illius detrahetur in die furoris Dei

29 haec est pars hominis impii a Deo et hereditas verborum eius a Domino

English Standard Version ESV

1 Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:

2 “Therefore my thoughts answer me, because of my haste within me.

3 I hear censure that insults me, and out of my understanding a spirit answers me.

4 Do you not know this from of old, since man was placed on earth,

5 that the exulting of the wicked is short, and the joy of the godless but for a moment?

6 Though his height mount up to the heavens, and his head reach to the clouds,

7 he will perish forever like his own dung; those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he? ’

8 He will fly away like a dream and not be found; he will be chased away like a vision of the night.

9 The eye that saw him will see him no more, nor will his place any more behold him.

10 His children will seek the favor of the poor, and his hands will give back his wealth.

11 His bones are full of his youthful vigor, but it will lie down with him in the dust.

12 “Though evil is sweet in his mouth, though he hides it under his tongue,

13 though he is loath to let it go and holds it in his mouth,

14 yet his food is turned in his stomach; it is the venom of cobras within him.

15 He swallows down riches and vomits them up again; God casts them out of his belly.

16 He will suck the poison of cobras; the tongue of a viper will kill him.

17 He will not look upon the rivers, the streams flowing with honey and curds.

18 He will give back the fruit of his toil and will not swallow it down; from the profit of his trading he will get no enjoyment.

19 For he has crushed and abandoned the poor; he has seized a house that he did not build.

20 “Because he knew no contentment in his belly, he will not let anything in which he delights escape him.

21 There was nothing left after he had eaten; therefore his prosperity will not endure.

22 In the fullness of his sufficiency he will be in distress; the hand of everyone in misery will come against him.

23 To fill his belly to the full, God will send his burning anger against him and rain it upon him into his body.

24 He will flee from an iron weapon; a bronze arrow will strike him through.

25 It is drawn forth and comes out of his body; the glittering point comes out of his gallbladder; terrors come upon him.

26 Utter darkness is laid up for his treasures; a fire not fanned will devour him; what is left in his tent will be consumed.

27 The heavens will reveal his iniquity, and the earth will rise up against him.

28 The possessions of his house will be carried away, dragged off in the day of God’s wrath.

29 This is the wicked man’s portion from God, the heritage decreed for him by God. ”
