The Latin Vulgate w/ Apocrypha VULA
King James Version w/ Apocrypha KJVA
1 pronuntians itaque Heliu etiam haec locutus est
1
Furthermore Elihu answered and said ,
2 audite sapientes verba mea et eruditi auscultate me
2
Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge .
3 auris enim verba probat et guttur escas gustu diiudicat
3
For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat .
4 iudicium eligamus nobis et inter nos videamus quid sit melius
4
Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good.
5 quia dixit Iob iustus sum et Deus subvertit iudicium meum
5
For Job hath said , I am righteous : and God hath taken away my judgment.
6 in iudicando enim me mendacium est violenta sagitta mea absque ullo peccato
6
Should I lie against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression.
7 quis est vir ut est Iob qui bibit subsannationem quasi aquam
7
What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water?
8 qui graditur cum operantibus iniquitatem et ambulat cum viris impiis
8
Which goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.
9 dixit enim non placebit vir Deo etiam si cucurrerit cum eo
9
For he hath said , It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God.
10 ideo viri cordati audite me absit a Deo impietas et ab Omnipotente iniquitas
10
Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
11 opus enim hominis reddet ei et iuxta vias singulorum restituet
11
For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.
12 vere enim Deus non condemnabit frustra nec Omnipotens subvertet iudicium
12
Yea, surely God will not do wickedly , neither will the Almighty pervert judgment.
13 quem constituit alium super terram aut quem posuit super orbem quem fabricatus est
13
Who hath given him a charge over the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world?
14 si direxerit ad eum cor suum spiritum illius et flatum ad se trahet
14
If he set his heart upon man, if he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;
15 deficiet omnis caro simul et homo in cinerem revertetur
15
All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust.
16 si habes ergo intellectum audi quod dicitur et ausculta vocem eloquii mei
16
If now thou hast understanding, hear this: hearken to the voice of my words.
17 numquid qui non amat iudicium sanare potest et quomodo tu eum qui iustus est in tantum condemnas
17
Shall even he that hateth right govern ? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just?
18 qui dicit regi apostata qui vocat duces impios
18
Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly?
19 qui non accipit personas principum nec cognovit tyrannum cum disceptaret contra pauperem opus enim manuum eius sunt universi
19
How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands.
20 subito morientur et in media nocte turbabuntur populi et pertransibunt et auferent violentum absque manu
20
In a moment shall they die , and the people shall be troubled at midnight , and pass away : and the mighty shall be taken away without hand.
21 oculi enim eius super vias hominum et omnes gressus eorum considerat
21
For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings.
22 non sunt tenebrae et non est umbra mortis ut abscondantur ibi qui operantur iniquitatem
22
There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
23 neque enim ultra in hominis potestate est ut veniat ad Deum in iudicium
23
For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God.
24 conteret multos innumerabiles et stare faciet alios pro eis
24
He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead.
25 novit enim opera eorum et idcirco inducet noctem et conterentur
25
Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed .
26 quasi impios percussit eos in loco videntium
26
He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others;
27 qui quasi de industria recesserunt ab eo et omnes vias eius intellegere noluerunt
27
Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways:
28 ut pervenire facerent ad eum clamorem egeni et audiret vocem pauperum
28
So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted.
29 ipso enim concedente pacem quis est qui condemnet ex quo absconderit vultum quis est qui contempletur eum et super gentem et super omnes homines
29
When he giveth quietness , who then can make trouble ? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only:
30 qui regnare facit hominem hypocritam propter peccata populi
30
That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared.
31 quia ergo ego locutus sum ad Deum te quoque non prohibeo
31
Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more:
32 si erravi tu doce me si iniquitatem locutus sum ultra non addam
32
That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more.
33 numquid a te Deus expetit eam quia displicuit tibi tu enim coepisti loqui et non ego quod si quid nosti melius loquere
33
Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse , or whether thou choose ; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest .
34 viri intellegentes loquantur mihi et vir sapiens audiat me
34
Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken unto me.
35 Iob autem stulte locutus est et verba illius non sonant disciplinam
35
Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom .
36 pater mi probetur Iob usque ad finem ne desinas in hominibus iniquitatis
36
My desire is that Job may be tried unto the end because of his answers for wicked men.
37 quia addit super peccata sua blasphemiam inter nos interim constringatur et tunc ad iudicium provocet sermonibus suis Deum
37
For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God.
