Job 27

The Message Bible MSG

1 Having waited for Zophar, Job now resumed his defense:

2 "God-Alive! He's denied me justice! God Almighty! He's ruined my life!

3 But for as long as I draw breath, and for as long as God breathes life into me,

4 I refuse to say one word that isn't true. I refuse to confess to any charge that's false.

5 There is no way I'll ever agree to your accusations. I'll not deny my integrity even if it costs me my life.

6 I'm holding fast to my integrity and not loosening my grip - and, believe me, I'll never regret it.

7 "Let my enemy be exposed as wicked! Let my adversary be proven guilty!

8 What hope do people without God have when life is cut short? when God puts an end to life?

9 Do you think God will listen to their cry for help when disaster hits?

10 What interest have they ever shown in the Almighty? Have they ever been known to pray before?

11 "I've given you a clear account of God in action, suppressed nothing regarding God Almighty.

12 The evidence is right before you. You can all see it for yourselves, so why do you keep talking nonsense?

13 "I'll quote your own words back to you: "'This is how God treats the wicked, this is what evil people can expect from God Almighty:

14 Their children - all of them - will die violent deaths; they'll never have enough bread to put on the table.

15 They'll be wiped out by the plague, and none of the widows will shed a tear when they're gone.

16 Even if they make a lot of money and are resplendent in the latest fashions,

17 It's the good who will end up wearing the clothes and the decent who will divide up the money.

18 They build elaborate houses that won't survive a single winter.

19 They go to bed wealthy and wake up poor.

20 Terrors pour in on them like flash floods - a tornado snatches them away in the middle of the night,

21 A cyclone sweeps them up - gone! Not a trace of them left, not even a footprint.

22 Catastrophes relentlessly pursue them; they run this way and that, but there's no place to hide -

23 Pummeled by the weather, blown to kingdom come by the storm.'

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 addidit quoque Iob adsumens parabolam suam et dixit

2 vivit Deus qui abstulit iudicium meum et Omnipotens qui ad amaritudinem adduxit animam meam

3 quia donec superest halitus in me et spiritus Dei in naribus meis

4 non loquentur labia mea iniquitatem nec lingua mea meditabitur mendacium

5 absit a me ut iustos vos esse iudicem donec deficiam non recedam ab innocentia mea

6 iustificationem meam quam coepi tenere non deseram nec enim reprehendit me cor meum in omni vita mea

7 sit ut impius inimicus meus et adversarius meus quasi iniquus

8 quae enim spes est hypocritae si avare rapiat et non liberet Deus animam eius

9 numquid clamorem eius Deus audiet cum venerit super illum angustia

10 aut poterit in Omnipotente delectari et invocare Deum in omni tempore

11 docebo vos per manum Dei quae Omnipotens habeat nec abscondam

12 ecce vos omnes nostis et quid sine causa vana loquimini

13 haec est pars hominis impii apud Deum et hereditas violentorum quam ab Omnipotente suscipient

14 si multiplicati fuerint filii eius in gladio erunt et nepotes eius non saturabuntur pane

15 qui reliqui fuerint ex eo sepelientur in interitu et viduae illius non plorabunt

16 si conportaverit quasi terram argentum et sicut lutum praeparaverit vestimenta

17 praeparabit quidem sed iustus vestietur illis et argentum innocens dividet

18 aedificavit sicut tinea domum suam et sicut custos fecit umbraculum

19 dives cum dormierit nihil secum auferet aperit oculos suos et nihil inveniet

20 adprehendit eum quasi aqua inopia nocte opprimet eum tempestas

21 tollet eum ventus urens et auferet et velut turbo rapiet eum de loco suo

22 et mittet super eum et non parcet de manu eius fugiens fugiet

23 stringet super eum manus suas et sibilabit super illum intuens locum eius
