34:1
וַיַּ֥עַן אֱלִיה֗וּא וַיֹּאמַֽר׃
ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ελιους λέγει
Pronuntians itaque Eliu, etiam haec locutus est :
ወደገመ፡ ኤልዩስ፡ ወይቤ።
Moreover Elihu answered,
34:2
שִׁמְע֣וּ חֲכָמִ֣ים מִלָּ֑י וְ֝יֹדְעִ֗ים הַאֲזִ֥ינוּ לִֽי׃
ἀκούσατέ μου σοφοί ἐπιστάμενοι ἐνωτίζεσθε τὸ καλόν
Audite, sapientes, verba mea : et eruditi, auscultate me.
ስምዑኒ፡ ጠቢባን፡ ወአጽምኡኒ፡ ሠናየ፡ ማእምራን።
“Hear my words, you wise men. Give ear to me, you who have knowledge.
34:3
כִּי־אֹ֭זֶן מִלִּ֣ין תִּבְחָ֑ן וְ֝חֵ֗ךְ יִטְעַ֥ם לֶאֱכֹֽל׃
ὅτι οὖς λόγους δοκιμάζει καὶ λάρυγξ γεύεται βρῶσιν
Auris enim verba probat, et guttur escas gustu dijudicat.
እስመ፡ ዕዝን፡ ነገረ፡ ይፈልጥ፡ ወጕርዔኒ፡ አክለ፡ ይጥዕም።
For the ear tries words, as the palate tastes food.
34:4
מִשְׁפָּ֥ט נִבְחֲרָה־לָּ֑נוּ נֵדְעָ֖ה בֵינֵ֣ינוּ מַה־טּֽוֹב׃
κρίσιν ἑλώμεθα ἑαυτοῖς γνῶμεν ἀνὰ μέσον ἑαυτῶν ὅ τι καλόν
Judicium eligamus nobis, et inter nos videamus quid sit melius.
ደይነ፡ ንነሥእ፡ ለርእስነ፡ ወነአምር፡ ምንተ፡ ይኄይስ፡ በማእከሌነ።
Let us choose for us that which is right. Let us know among ourselves what is good.
34:5
כִּֽי־אָמַ֣ר אִיּ֣וֹב צָדַ֑קְתִּי וְ֝אֵ֗ל הֵסִ֥יר מִשְׁפָּטִֽי׃
ὅτι εἴρηκεν Ιωβ δίκαιός εἰμι ὁ κύριος ἀπήλλαξέν μου τὸ κρίμα
Quia dixit Job : Justus sum, et Deus subvertit judicium meum.
እስመ፡ ይቤ፡ ኢዮብ፡ ጻድቅ፡ አነ፡ ወሠለጠ፡ ሊተ፡ ኵነኔ፡ ፍትሕየ፡ ወአሐምም፡ በግፍዕ፡ ዘአልብየ፡ አበሳ።
For Job has said, ‘I am righteous, God has taken away my right.
34:6
עַל־מִשְׁפָּטִ֥י אֲכַזֵּ֑ב אָנ֖וּשׁ חִצִּ֣י בְלִי־פָֽשַׁע׃
ἐψεύσατο δὲ τῷ κρίματί μου βίαιον τὸ βέλος μου ἄνευ ἀδικίας
In judicando enim me mendacium est : violenta sagitta mea absque ullo peccato.
መኑ፡ ሰብእ፡ ከመ፡ ኢዮብ፡ ዘይሰትያ፡ ለትዕግሥት፡ ከመ፡ ማይ።
Notwithstanding my right I am considered a liar. My wound is incurable, though I am without disobedience.’
34:7
מִי־גֶ֥בֶר כְּאִיּ֑וֹב יִֽשְׁתֶּה־לַּ֥עַג כַּמָּֽיִם׃
τίς ἀνὴρ ὥσπερ Ιωβ πίνων μυκτηρισμὸν ὥσπερ ὕδωρ
Quis est vir ut est Job, qui bibit subsannationem quasi aquam :
ኢአበሰ፡ ወኢጌገየ፡ ግሙራ፡ ወኢተሳተፈ፡ ምስለ፡ ገበርተ፡ ዓመፃ፡ ወኢሖረ፡ ምስለ፡ ኃጥአን።
What man is like Job, who drinks scorn like water,
34:8
וְאָרַ֣ח לְ֭חֶבְרָה עִם־פֹּ֣עֲלֵי אָ֑וֶן וְ֝לָלֶ֗כֶת עִם־אַנְשֵׁי־רֶֽשַׁע׃
οὐχ ἁμαρτὼν οὐδὲ ἀσεβήσας ἢ ὁδοῦ κοινωνήσας μετὰ ποιούντων τὰ ἄνομα τοῦ πορευθῆναι μετὰ ἀσεβῶν
qui graditur cum operantibus iniquitatem, et ambulat cum viris impiis ?
ወይቤ፡ ኢይዋህይዎ፡ ለሰብእ፡ በሩዐቱ፡ ቅድመ፡ እግዚአብሔር።
who goes in company with the workers of iniquity, and walks with wicked men?
34:9
כִּֽי־אָ֭מַר לֹ֣א יִסְכׇּן־גָּ֑בֶר בִּ֝רְצֹת֗וֹ עִם־אֱלֹהִֽים׃
μὴ γὰρ εἴπῃς ὅτι οὐκ ἔσται ἐπισκοπὴ ἀνδρός καὶ ἐπισκοπὴ αὐτῷ παρὰ κυρίου
Dixit enim : Non placebit vir Deo, etiam si cucurrerit cum eo.

לָכֵ֤ן׀ אַ֥נְשֵׁ֥י לֵבָ֗ב שִׁמְע֫וּ־לִ֥י חָלִ֖לָה לָאֵ֥ל מֵרֶ֗שַׁע וְשַׁדַּ֥י מֵעָֽוֶל׃
διό συνετοὶ καρδίας ἀκούσατέ μου μή μοι εἴη ἔναντι κυρίου ἀσεβῆσαι καὶ ἔναντι παντοκράτορος ταράξαι τὸ δίκαιον
Ideo, viri cordati, audite me : absit a Deo impietas, et ab Omnipotente iniquitas.
ወይፈድዮ፡ ለኵሉ፡ ሰብእ፡ በከመ፡ ምግባሩ፡ ወይረክቦ፡ ለሰብእ፡ በከመ፡ ፍኖቱ።
“Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
34:11
כִּ֤י פֹ֣עַל אָ֭דָם יְשַׁלֶּם־ל֑וֹ וּֽכְאֹ֥רַח אִ֝֗ישׁ יַמְצִאֶֽנּוּ׃
ἀλλὰ ἀποδιδοῖ ἀνθρώπῳ καθὰ ποιεῖ ἕκαστος αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν τρίβῳ ἀνδρὸς εὑρήσει αὐτόν
Opus enim hominis reddet ei, et juxta vias singulorum restituet eis.
ትሬስዮኑ፡ ለእግዚአብሔር፡ ከመ፡ ይገፍዕ፡ ወዘኵሎ፡ ይመልክ፡ ከመ፡ ይዌልጥ፡ ፍትሐ፡ ዘውእቱ፡ ፈጠራ፡ ለምድር።
For the work of a man he will give to him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.
34:12
אַף־אׇמְנָ֗ם אֵ֥ל לֹֽא־יַרְשִׁ֑יעַ וְ֝שַׁדַּ֗י לֹא־יְעַוֵּ֥ת מִשְׁפָּֽט׃
οἴῃ δὲ τὸν κύριον ἄτοπα ποιήσειν ἢ ὁ παντοκράτωρ ταράξει κρίσιν
Vere enim Deus non condemnabit frustra, nec Omnipotens subvertet judicium.
መኑ፡ ውእቱ፡ ዘገብረ፡ ዘታሕተ፡ ሰማይ፡ ወኵሎ፡ ዘውስቴታ።
Yes surely, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice.
34:13
מִֽי־פָקַ֣ד עָלָ֣יו אָ֑רְצָה וּמִ֥י שָׂ֝֗ם תֵּבֵ֥ל כֻּלָּֽהּ׃
ὃς ἐποίησεν τὴν γῆν τίς δέ ἐστιν ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ὑπ’ οὐρανὸν καὶ τὰ ἐνόντα πάντα
Quem constituit alium super terram ? aut quem posuit super orbem quem fabricatus est ?
ወለእመ፡ ውእቱ፡ ፈቀደ፡ ያጸንዕ፡ ወይእኅዝ፡ መንፈሰ፡ ዘኀቤሁ።
Who put him in charge of the earth? Or who has appointed him over the whole world?
34:14
אִם־יָשִׂ֣ים אֵלָ֣יו לִבּ֑וֹ רוּח֥וֹ וְ֝נִשְׁמָת֗וֹ אֵלָ֥יו יֶאֱסֹֽף׃
εἰ γὰρ βούλοιτο συνέχειν καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα παρ’ αὐτῷ κατασχεῖν
Si direxerit ad eum cor suum, spiritum illius et flatum ad se trahet.

If he set his heart on himself, if he gathered to himself his spirit and his breath,
34:15
יִגְוַ֣ע כׇּל־בָּשָׂ֣ר יָ֑חַד וְ֝אָדָ֗ם עַל־עָפָ֥ר יָשֽׁוּב׃
τελευτήσει πᾶσα σὰρξ ὁμοθυμαδόν πᾶς δὲ βροτὸς εἰς γῆν ἀπελεύσεται ὅθεν καὶ ἐπλάσθη

εἰ δὲ μὴ νουθετῇ ἄκουε ταῦτα ἐνωτίζου φωνὴν ῥημάτων
Si habes ergo intellectum, audi quod dicitur, et ausculta vocem eloquii mei :

ጽሩፍ፡ ዘይብሎ፡ ለንጉሥ፡ አበስከ፡ ወእኩይ፡ ብሂል፡ ለመላእክተ።
Should even one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn him who is righteous and mighty,

ዘኢየኃፍር፡ ገጸ፡ ክቡር፡ ወዘኢየአምር፡ አክብሮ፡ ዓቢይ፡ ወዘኢይጌግፅ፡ እምገጾሙ።

ὃς οὐκ ἐπῃσχύνθη πρόσωπον ἐντίμου οὐδὲ οἶδεν τιμὴν θέσθαι ἁδροῖς θαυμασθῆναι πρόσωπα αὐτῶν
qui non accipit personas principum, nec cognovit tyrannum cum disceptaret contra pauperem : opus enim manuum ejus sunt universi.
ከንቱ፡ ይረክቦ፡ ለዘይጽርሕ፡ ወኢያጸምኦ፡ ለሰብእ፡ ወገብረ፡ እኩየ፡ ዲበ፡ ምስኪናን።

ወለሊሁ፡ ይሬኢ፡ ምግባሮ፡ ለሰብእ፡ ወአልቦ፡ ምንትኒ፡ ዘይትኃባእ፡ እምኔሁ።
In a moment they die, even at midnight. The people are shaken and pass away. The mighty are taken away without a hand.

ወዘየአምር፡ ዘአልቦ፡ አሠር፡ ክቡራተ፡ ወመንክራተ፡ ዘአልቦ፡ ኍልቊ።
There is no darkness, nor thick gloom, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
34:23
כִּ֤י לֹ֣א עַל־אִ֭ישׁ יָשִׂ֣ים ע֑וֹד לַהֲלֹ֥ךְ אֶל־אֵ֝֗ל בַּמִּשְׁפָּֽט׃

quia addit super peccata sua blasphemiam, inter nos interim constringatur : et tunc ad judicium provocet sermonibus suis Deum.
—
For he adds rebellion to his sin. He claps his hands among us, and multiplies his words against God.”
