Job 27

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 And Job again took up the word and said,

2 By the life of God, who has taken away my right; and of the Ruler of all, who has made my soul bitter;

3 (For all my breath is still in me, and the spirit of God is my life;)

4 Truly, there is no deceit in my lips, and my tongue does not say what is false.

5 Let it be far from me! I will certainly not say that you are right! I will come to death before I give up my righteousness.

6 I will keep it safe, and will not let it go: my heart has nothing to say against any part of my life.

7 Let my hater be like the evil man, and let him who comes against me be as the sinner.

8 For what is the hope of the sinner when he is cut off, when God takes back his soul?

9 Will his cry come to the ears of God when he is in trouble?

10 Will he take delight in the Ruler of all, and make his prayer to God at all times?

11 I will give you teaching about the hand of God; I will not keep secret from you what is in the mind of the Ruler of all.

12 Truly, you have all seen it yourselves; why then have you become completely foolish?

13 This is the punishment of the evil-doer from God, and the heritage given to the cruel by the Ruler of all.

14 If his children are increased, it is for the sword; and his offspring have not enough bread.

15 When those of his house who are still living come to their end by disease, they are not put into the earth, and their widows are not weeping for them.

16 Though he may get silver together like dust, and make ready great stores of clothing;

17 He may get them ready, but the upright will put them on, and he who is free from sin will take the silver for a heritage.

18 His house has no more strength than a spider's thread, or a watchman's tent.

19 He goes to rest full of wealth, but does so for the last time: on opening his eyes, he sees it there no longer.

20 Fears overtake him like rushing waters; in the night the storm-wind takes him away.

21 The east wind takes him up and he is gone; he is forced violently out of his place.

22 God sends his arrows against him without mercy; he goes in flight before his hand.

23 Men make signs of joy because of him, driving him from his place with sounds of hissing.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 7 Moreover Iyov continued his mashal, and said,

2 As El liveth, Who hath taken away my mishpat, and Shaddai, Who hath saddened my nefesh;

3 All the while my neshamah is in me, and the ruach of Eloah is in my nostrils,

4 My lips shall not speak falsehood, nor my leshon utter deceit.

5 Far be it from me I should justify you; till I die I will not remove mine tom (integrity) from me.

6 My tzedakah I hold fast, and will not let it go; my lev shall not reproach for any of my days.

7 Let mine enemy be as the rasha (evildoer), and he that riseth up against me as unrighteous.

8 For what is the tikveh of the chanef, when He cutteth off, when Eloah taketh away, his nefesh?

9 Will El hear his cry when tzarah cometh upon him?

10 Will he delight himself in Shaddai? Will he always call upon Eloah?

11 I will teach you concerning the yad El; that which is with Shaddai will I not conceal.

12 Hen (behold), all ye yourselves have seen it; why then are ye thus altogether vain?

13 This is the chelek (lot) of the adam rasha with El and the nachalah of oppressors, which they shall receive from Shaddai.

14 If his banim be multiplied, it is for the cherev, and his offspring shall not have lechem enough.

15 Those that survive him shall be buried in mavet, and his almanot shall not weep.

16 Though he heap up kesef as the aphar, and pile up raiment as the clay,

17 He may prepare it, but the tzaddik shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the kesef.

18 He buildeth his bais as a moth, and as a sukkah that the watchman maketh.

19 The oisher (rich man) shall lie down, but he shall do so no more; he openeth his eyes, and he is not.

20 Terrors take hold on him as a flood, a tempest stealeth him away in the lailah.

21 The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth as a storm hurleth him forth from his makom.

22 For it will hurl against him, without sparing; he desperately flees from its yad.

23 Men shall clap their hands at him, and shall hiss him away from his makom.
