1Then Job answered:

1וַיַּ֥עַן אִיּ֗וֹב וַיֹּאמַֽר׃

2I have heard many things like these. You are all miserable comforters.

2שָׁמַ֣עְתִּי כְאֵ֣לֶּה רַבּ֑וֹת מְנַחֲמֵ֖י עָמָ֣ל כֻּלְּכֶֽם׃

3Is there no end to your empty words? What provokes you that you continue testifying?

3הֲקֵ֥ץ לְדִבְרֵי־ ר֑וּחַ א֥וֹ מַה־ יַּ֝מְרִֽיצְךָ֗ כִּ֣י תַעֲנֶֽה׃

4If you were in my place I could also talk like you. I could string words together against you and shake my head at you.

4גַּ֤ם ׀ אָנֹכִי֮ כָּכֶ֪ם אֲדַ֫בֵּ֥רָה ל֤וּ־ יֵ֪שׁ נַפְשְׁכֶ֡ם תַּ֤חַת נַפְשִׁ֗י אַחְבִּ֣ירָה עֲלֵיכֶ֣ם בְּמִלִּ֑ים וְאָנִ֥יעָה עֲ֝לֵיכֶ֗ם בְּמ֣וֹ רֹאשִֽׁי׃

5Instead, I would encourage you with my mouth, and the consolation from my lips would bring relief.

5אֲאַמִּצְכֶ֥ם בְּמוֹ־ פִ֑י וְנִ֖יד שְׂפָתַ֣י יַחְשֹֽׂךְ׃

6If I speak, my suffering is not relieved, and if I hold back, does any of it leave me?

6אִֽם־ אֲ֭דַבְּרָה לֹא־ יֵחָשֵׂ֣ךְ כְּאֵבִ֑י וְ֝אַחְדְּלָ֗ה מַה־ מִנִּ֥י יַהֲלֹֽךְ׃

7Surely he has now exhausted me. You have devastated my entire family.

7אַךְ־ עַתָּ֥ה הֶלְאָ֑נִי הֲ֝שִׁמּ֗וֹתָ כָּל־ עֲדָתִֽי׃

8You have shriveled me up--it has become a witness; my frailty rises up against me and testifies to my face.

8וַֽ֭תִּקְמְטֵנִי לְעֵ֣ד הָיָ֑ה וַיָּ֥קָם בִּ֥י כַ֝חֲשִׁ֗י בְּפָנַ֥י יַעֲנֶֽה׃

9His anger tears at me, and he harasses me. He gnashes his teeth at me. My enemy pierces me with his eyes.

9אַפּ֤וֹ טָרַ֨ף ׀ וַֽיִּשְׂטְמֵ֗נִי חָרַ֣ק עָלַ֣י בְּשִׁנָּ֑יו צָרִ֓י ׀ יִלְט֖וֹשׁ עֵינָ֣יו לִֽי׃

10They open their mouths against me and strike my cheeks with contempt; they join themselves together against me.

10פָּעֲר֬וּ עָלַ֨י ׀ בְּפִיהֶ֗ם בְּ֭חֶרְפָּה הִכּ֣וּ לְחָיָ֑י יַ֝֗חַד עָלַ֥י יִתְמַלָּאֽוּן׃

11God hands me over to the unjust; he throws me to the wicked.

11יַסְגִּירֵ֣נִי אֵ֭ל אֶ֣ל עֲוִ֑יל וְעַל־ יְדֵ֖י רְשָׁעִ֣ים יִרְטֵֽנִי׃

12I was at ease, but he shattered me; he seized me by the scruff of the neck and smashed me to pieces. He set me up as his target;

12שָׁ֘לֵ֤ו הָיִ֨יתִי ׀ וַֽיְפַרְפְּרֵ֗נִי וְאָחַ֣ז בְּ֭עָרְפִּי וַֽיְפַצְפְּצֵ֑נִי וַיְקִימֵ֥נִי ל֝֗וֹ לְמַטָּרָֽה׃

13his archers surround me. He pierces my kidneys without mercy and pours my bile on the ground.

13יָ֘סֹ֤בּוּ עָלַ֨י ׀ רַבָּ֗יו יְפַלַּ֣ח כִּ֭לְיוֹתַי וְלֹ֣א יַחְמ֑וֹל יִשְׁפֹּ֥ךְ לָ֝אָ֗רֶץ מְרֵרָֽתִי׃

14He breaks through my defenses again and again; he charges at me like a warrior.

14יִפְרְצֵ֣נִי פֶ֭רֶץ עַל־ פְּנֵי־ פָ֑רֶץ יָרֻ֖ץ עָלַ֣י כְּגִבּֽוֹר׃

15I have sewn sackcloth over my skin; I have buried my strength in the dust.

15שַׂ֣ק תָּ֭פַרְתִּי עֲלֵ֣י גִלְדִּ֑י וְעֹלַ֖לְתִּי בֶעָפָ֣ר קַרְנִֽי׃

16My face has grown red with weeping, and darkness covers my eyes,

16פָּנַ֣י [חמרמרה] (חֳ֭מַרְמְרוּ) מִנִּי־ בֶ֑כִי וְעַ֖ל עַפְעַפַּ֣י צַלְמָֽוֶת׃

17although my hands are free from violence and my prayer is pure.

17עַ֭ל לֹא־ חָמָ֣ס בְּכַפָּ֑י וּֽתְפִלָּתִ֥י זַכָּֽה׃

18Earth, do not cover my blood; may my cry for help find no resting place.

18אֶ֭רֶץ אַל־ תְּכַסִּ֣י דָמִ֑י וְֽאַל־ יְהִ֥י מָ֝ק֗וֹם לְזַעֲקָתִֽי׃

19Even now my witness is in heaven, and my advocate is in the heights!

19גַּם־ עַ֭תָּה הִנֵּה־ בַשָּׁמַ֣יִם עֵדִ֑י וְ֝שָׂהֲדִ֗י בַּמְּרוֹמִֽים׃

20My friends scoff at me as I weep before God.

20מְלִיצַ֥י רֵעָ֑י אֶל־ אֱ֝ל֗וֹהַ דָּלְפָ֥ה עֵינִֽי׃

21I wish that someone might argue for a man with God just as anyone would for a friend.

21וְיוֹכַ֣ח לְגֶ֣בֶר עִם־ אֱל֑וֹהַּ וּֽבֶן־ אָדָ֥ם לְרֵעֵֽהוּ׃

22For only a few years will pass before I go the way of no return.

22כִּֽי־ שְׁנ֣וֹת מִסְפָּ֣ר יֶאֱתָ֑יוּ וְאֹ֖רַח לֹא־ אָשׁ֣וּב אֶהֱלֹֽךְ׃
