1 ἔτι δὲ προσθεὶς Ιωβ εἶπεν τῷ προοιμίῳ 2 ζῇ κύριος ὃς οὕτω με κέκρικεν καὶ ὁ παντοκράτωρ ὁ πικράνας μου τὴν ψυχήν 3 ἦ μὴν ἔτι τῆς πνοῆς μου ἐνούσης πνεῦμα δὲ θεῖον τὸ περιόν μοι ἐν ῥισίν 4 μὴ λαλήσειν τὰ χείλη μου ἄνομα οὐδὲ ἡ ψυχή μου μελετήσει ἄδικα 5 μή μοι εἴη δικαίους ὑμᾶς ἀποφῆναι ἕως ἂν ἀποθάνω οὐ γὰρ ἀπαλλάξω μου τὴν ἀκακίαν 6 δικαιοσύνῃ δὲ προσέχων οὐ μὴ προῶμαι οὐ γὰρ σύνοιδα ἐμαυτῷ ἄτοπα πράξας 7 οὐ μὴν δὲ ἀλλὰ εἴησαν οἱ ἐχθροί μου ὥσπερ ἡ καταστροφὴ τῶν ἀσεβῶν καὶ οἱ ἐπ' ἐμὲ ἐπανιστανόμενοι ὥσπερ ἡ ἀπώλεια τῶν παρανόμων 8 καὶ τίς γάρ ἐστιν ἐλπὶς ἀσεβεῖ ὅτι ἐπέχει πεποιθὼς ἐπὶ κύριον ἆρα σωθήσεται 9 ἦ τὴν δέησιν αὐτοῦ εἰσακούσεται κύριος ἢ ἐπελθούσης αὐτῷ ἀνάγκης 10 μὴ ἔχει τινὰ παρρησίαν ἔναντι αὐτοῦ ἢ ὡς ἐπικαλεσαμένου αὐτοῦ εἰσακούσεται αὐτοῦ 11 ἀλλὰ δὴ ἀναγγελῶ ὑμῖν τί ἐστιν ἐν χειρὶ κυρίου ἅ ἐστιν παρὰ παντοκράτορι οὐ ψεύσομαι 12 ἰδοὺ δὴ πάντες οἴδατε ὅτι κενὰ κενοῖς ἐπιβάλλετε 13 αὕτη ἡ μερὶς ἀνθρώπου ἀσεβοῦς παρὰ κυρίου κτῆμα δὲ δυναστῶν ἐλεύσεται παρὰ παντοκράτορος ἐπ' αὐτούς 14 ἐὰν δὲ πολλοὶ γένωνται οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς σφαγὴν ἔσονται ἐὰν δὲ καὶ ἀνδρωθῶσιν προσαιτήσουσιν 15 οἱ δὲ περιόντες αὐτοῦ ἐν θανάτῳ τελευτήσουσιν χήρας δὲ αὐτῶν οὐθεὶς ἐλεήσει 16 ἐὰν συναγάγῃ ὥσπερ γῆν ἀργύριον ἴσα δὲ πηλῷ ἑτοιμάσῃ χρυσίον 17 ταῦτα πάντα δίκαιοι περιποιήσονται τὰ δὲ χρήματα αὐτοῦ ἀληθινοὶ καθέξουσιν 18 ἀπέβη δὲ ὁ οἶκος αὐτοῦ ὥσπερ σῆτες καὶ ὥσπερ ἀράχνη 19 πλούσιος κοιμηθεὶς καὶ οὐ προσθήσει ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ διήνοιξεν καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν 20 συνήντησαν αὐτῷ ὥσπερ ὕδωρ αἱ ὀδύναι νυκτὶ δὲ ὑφείλατο αὐτὸν γνόφος 21 ἀναλήμψεται αὐτὸν καύσων καὶ ἀπελεύσεται καὶ λικμήσει αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ 22 καὶ ἐπιρρίψει ἐπ' αὐτὸν καὶ οὐ φείσεται ἐκ χειρὸς αὐτοῦ φυγῇ φεύξεται 23 κροτήσει ἐπ' αὐτοῦ χεῖρας αὐτοῦ καὶ συριεῖ αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ

ob also added, taking up his parable, and said: 2 As God lives, who has taken away my judgment, and the Almighty, who has brought my soul to bitterness, 3 as long as breath remains in me, and the spirit of God in my nostrils, 4 my lips shall not speak iniquity, neither shall my tongue contrive lying. 5 God forbid that I should judge you to be just: till I die I will not depart from my innocence. 6 My justification, which I have begun to hold, I will not forsake: for my heart does not reprehend me in all my life. 7 Let my enemy be as the ungodly, and my adversary as the wicked one. 8 For what is the hope of the hypocrite if through covetousness he take by violence, and God deliver not his soul? 9 Will God hear his cry, when distress shall come upon him? 10 Or can he delight himself in the Almighty, and call upon God at all times? 11 I will teach you by the hand of God, what the Almighty has, and I will not conceal it. 12 Behold you all know it, and why do you speak vain things without cause? 13 This is the portion of a wicked man with God, and the inheritance of the violent, which they shall receive of the Almighty. 14 If his sons be multiplied, they shall be for the sword, and his grandsons shall not be filled with bread. 15 They that shall remain of him, shall be buried in death, and his widows shall not weep. 16 If he shall heap together silver as earth, and prepare raiment as clay, 17 he shall prepare indeed, but the just man shall be clothed with it: and the innocent shall divide the silver. 18 He has built his house as a moth, and as a keeper he has made a booth. 19 The rich man when he shall sleep shall take away nothing with him: he shall open his eyes and find nothing. 20 Poverty like water shall take hold on him, a tempest shall oppress him in the night: 21 A burning wind shall take him up, and carry him away, and as a whirlwind shall snatch him from his place. 22 And he shall cast upon him, and shall not spare: out of his hand he would willingly flee. 23 He shall clasp his hands upon him, and shall hiss at him, beholding his place.

1 Addidit quoque Job, assumens parabolam suam, et dixit: 2 Vivit Deus, qui abstulit judicium 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 justos vos esse judicem : donec deficiam, non recedam ab innocentia mea. 6 Justificationem meam, quam cœpi tenere, non deseram : neque enim reprehendit me cor meum in omni vita mea. 7 Sit ut impius, inimicus meus, et adversarius meus quasi iniquus. 8 Quæ est enim spes hypocritæ, si avare rapiat, et non liberet Deus animam ejus? 9 Numquid Deus audiet clamorem ejus, cum venerit super eum angustia? 10 aut poterit in Omnipotente delectari, et invocare Deum omni tempore? 11 Docebo vos per manum Dei quæ Omnipotens habeat, nec abscondam. 12 Ecce vos omnes nostis : et quid sine causa vana loquimini? 13 Hæc est pars hominis impii apud Deum, et hæreditas violentorum, quam ob Omnipotente suscipient. 14 Si multiplicati fuerint filii ejus, in gladio erunt, et nepotes ejus non saturabuntur pane : 15 qui reliqui fuerint ex eo sepelientur in interitu, et viduæ illius non plorabunt. 16 Si comportaverit quasi terram argentum, et sicut lutum præparaverit vestimenta : 17 præparabit quidem, sed justus vestietur illis, et argentum innocens dividet. 18 Ædificavit sicut tinea domum suam, et sicut custos fecit umbraculum. 19 Dives, cum dormierit, nihil secum auferet : aperiet oculos suos, et nihil inveniet. 20 Apprehendet 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 ejus fugiens fugiet. 23 Stringet super eum manus suas, et sibilabit super illum, intuens locum ejus.
