Job 35

VUL

NIV

1 igitur Heliu haec rursum locutus est
1 Then Elihu said:
2 numquid aequa tibi videtur tua cogitatio ut diceres iustior Deo sum
2 “Do you think this is just? You say, ‘I am in the right, not God.’
3 dixisti enim non tibi placet quod rectum est vel quid tibi proderit si ego peccavero
3 Yet you ask him, ‘What profit is it to me,and what do I gain by not sinning?’
4 itaque ego respondebo sermonibus tuis et amicis tuis tecum
4 “I would like to reply to you and to your friends with you.
5 suspice caelum et intuere et contemplare aethera quod altior te sit
5 Look up at the heavens and see; gaze at the clouds so high above you.
6 si peccaveris quid ei nocebis et si multiplicatae fuerint iniquitates tuae quid facies contra eum
6 If you sin, how does that affect him? If your sins are many, what does that do to him?
7 porro si iuste egeris quid donabis ei aut quid de manu tua accipiet
7 If you are righteous, what do you give to him, or what does he receive from your hand?
8 homini qui similis tui est nocebit impietas tua et filium hominis adiuvabit iustitia tua
8 Your wickedness only affects humans like yourself, and your righteousness only other people.
9 propter multitudinem calumniatorum clamabunt et heiulabunt propter vim brachii tyrannorum
9 “People cry out under a load of oppression; they plead for relief from the arm of the powerful.
10 et non dixit ubi est Deus qui fecit me qui dedit carmina in nocte
10 But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night,
11 qui docet nos super iumenta terrae et super volucres caeli erudit nos
11 who teaches us more than he teaches the beasts of the earth and makes us wiser than the birds in the sky?’
12 ibi clamabunt et non exaudiet propter superbiam malorum
12 He does not answer when people cry out because of the arrogance of the wicked.
13 non ergo frustra audiet Deus et Omnipotens singulorum causas intuebitur
13 Indeed, God does not listen to their empty plea; the Almighty pays no attention to it.
14 etiam cum dixeris non considerat iudicare coram eo et expecta eum
14 How much less, then, will he listen when you say that you do not see him, that your case is before him and you must wait for him,
15 nunc enim non infert furorem suum nec ulciscitur scelus valde
15 and further, that his anger never punishes and he does not take the least notice of wickedness.
16 ergo Iob frustra aperit os suum et absque scientia verba multiplicat
16 So Job opens his mouth with empty talk; without knowledge he multiplies words.”
