1Then Zophar the Naamathite answered,1וַ֭יַּעַן צֹפַ֥ר הַֽנַּעֲמָתִ֗י וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
2"Shall a multitude of words go unanswered, And a talkative man be acquitted?2הֲרֹ֣ב דְּ֭בָרִים לֹ֣א יֵעָנֶ֑ה וְאִם־ אִ֖ישׁ שְׂפָתַ֣יִם יִצְדָּֽק׃
3"Shall your boasts silence men? And shall you scoff and none rebuke?3בַּ֭דֶּיךָ מְתִ֣ים יַחֲרִ֑ישׁו‪‬ וַ֝תִּלְעַ֗ג וְאֵ֣ין מַכְלִֽם׃
4"For you have said, 'My teaching is pure, And I am innocent in your eyes.'4וַ֭תֹּאמֶר זַ֣ךְ לִקְחִ֑י וּ֝בַ֗ר הָיִ֥יתִי בְעֵינֶֽיךָ׃
5"But would that God might speak, And open His lips against you,5וְֽאוּלָ֗ם מִֽי־ יִתֵּ֣ן אֱל֣וֹהַּ דַּבֵּ֑ר וְיִפְתַּ֖ח שְׂפָתָ֣יו עִמָּֽךְ׃
6And show you the secrets of wisdom! For sound wisdom has two sides. Know then that God forgets a part of your iniquity.6וְיַגֶּד־ לְךָ֨ ׀ תַּֽעֲלֻמ֣וֹת חָכְמָה֮ כִּֽי־ כִפְלַ֪יִם לְֽת֫וּשִׁיָּ֥ה וְדַ֡ע כִּֽי־ יַשֶּׁ֥ה לְךָ֥ אֱ֝ל֗וֹהַ מֵעֲוֺנֶֽךָ׃
7"Can you discover the depths of God? Can you discover the limits of the Almighty?7הַחֵ֣קֶר אֱל֣וֹהַ תִּמְצָ֑א אִ֤ם עַד־ תַּכְלִ֖ית שַׁדַּ֣י תִּמְצָֽא׃
8"They are high as the heavens, what can you do? Deeper than Sheol, what can you know?8גָּבְהֵ֣י שָׁ֭מַיִם מַה־ תִּפְעָ֑ל עֲמֻקָּ֥ה מִ֝שְּׁא֗וֹל מַה־ תֵּדָֽע׃
9"Its measure is longer than the earth And broader than the sea.9אֲרֻכָּ֣ה מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִדָּ֑הּ וּ֝רְחָבָ֗ה מִנִּי־ יָֽם׃
10"If He passes by or shuts up, Or calls an assembly, who can restrain Him?10אִם־ יַחֲלֹ֥ף וְיַסְגִּ֑יר וְ֝יַקְהִ֗יל וּמִ֣י יְשִׁיבֶֽנּוּ׃
11"For He knows false men, And He sees iniquity without investigating.11כִּי־ ה֭וּא יָדַ֣ע מְתֵי־ שָׁ֑וְא וַיַּרְא־ אָ֝֗וֶן וְלֹ֣א יִתְבּוֹנָֽן׃
12"An idiot will become intelligent When the foal of a wild donkey is born a man.12וְאִ֣ישׁ נָ֭בוּב יִלָּבֵ֑ב וְעַ֥יִר פֶּ֝֗רֶא אָדָ֥ם יִוָּלֵֽד׃
13"If you would direct your heart right And spread out your hand to Him,13אִם־ אַ֭תָּ֗ה‪‬ הֲכִינ֣וֹתָ לִבֶּ֑ךָ וּפָרַשְׂתָּ֖ אֵלָ֣יו כַּפֶּֽךָ׃
14If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, And do not let wickedness dwell in your tents;14אִם־ אָ֣וֶן בְּ֭יָדְךָ הַרְחִיקֵ֑הוּ וְאַל־ תַּשְׁכֵּ֖ן בְּאֹהָלֶ֣יךָ עַוְלָֽה׃
15"Then, indeed, you could lift up your face without moral defect, And you would be steadfast and not fear.15כִּי־ אָ֤ז ׀ תִּשָּׂ֣א פָנֶ֣יךָ מִמּ֑וּם וְהָיִ֥יתָ מֻ֝צָ֗ק וְלֹ֣א תִירָֽא׃
16"For you would forget your trouble, As waters that have passed by, you would remember it.16כִּי־ אַ֭תָּה עָמָ֣ל תִּשְׁכָּ֑ח כְּמַ֖יִם עָבְר֣וּ תִזְכֹּֽר׃
17"Your life would be brighter than noonday; Darkness would be like the morning.17וּֽ֭מִצָּהֳרַיִם יָק֣וּם חָ֑לֶד תָּ֝עֻ֗פָה כַּבֹּ֥קֶר תִּהְיֶֽה׃
18"Then you would trust, because there is hope; And you would look around and rest securely.18וּֽ֭בָטַחְתָּ כִּי־ יֵ֣שׁ תִּקְוָ֑ה וְ֝חָפַרְתָּ֗ לָבֶ֥טַח תִּשְׁכָּֽב׃
19"You would lie down and none would disturb you, And many would entreat your favor.19וְֽ֭רָבַצְתָּ וְאֵ֣ין מַחֲרִ֑יד וְחִלּ֖וּ פָנֶ֣יךָ רַבִּֽים׃
20"But the eyes of the wicked will fail, And there will be no escape for them; And their hope is to breathe their last."20וְעֵינֵ֥י רְשָׁעִ֗ים תִּ֫כְלֶ֥ינָה וּ֭מָנוֹס אָבַ֣ד מִנְהֶ֑ם וְ֝תִקְוָתָ֗ם מַֽפַּח־ נָֽפֶשׁ׃ פ
