Job 4:12-21 And to me it was spoken clandestinely in stealth; shall not my ear receive extraordinary things by him,

ABP_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

12 G4314 [²to G1473 ³me G1161 ¹And] G2980 it was spoken G2977.1 clandestinely G1722 in G2829 stealth; G4220 shall G3756 not G1209 [³receive G1473 ¹my G3588 G3775 ²ear] G1808.1 extraordinary things G3844 by G1473 him,

14 G5424.1 But a shuddering awe G1161 G1473 met with me, G4876 G2532 and G5156 trembling, G2532 and G3171 [⁴greatly G1473 ¹my G3588 G3747 ²bones G4952.3 ³quaked].

15 G2532 And G4151 a spirit G1909 [²upon G4383 ³my face G1473 G1904 ¹came], G5425 [⁶shuddered G1161 ¹and G1473 ²my G2359 ³hair G2532 ⁴and G4561 ⁵flesh].

16 G450 I rose up, G2532 and G3756 knew not; G1921 G1492 I saw G2532 and G3756 [³no G1510.7.3 ²was G3444 ¹there] appearance G4253 before G3788 my eyes, G1473 G237.1 but only G838.1 a breeze; G2532 and G5456 [²a voice G191 ¹I heard], saying,

17 G5100 For what, G1063 G3361 Shall G2513 [³pure G1510.8.3 ²be G1027.1 ¹a mortal] G1726 before G3588 the G2962 lord ? G2228 or G575 [³from G3588 G2041 ⁴his works G1473 G273 ² be blameless G435 ¹ shall a man]?

18 G1487 If G2596 [²even G3816 ⁴his servants G1473 G3756 ¹he does not G4100 ³trust], G2596 and even G1161 G32 considers his angels G1473 G4646 as crooked G5100 in what G1962.1 he thinks about,

19 G3588 then the ones G1161 G2730 dwelling in G3614 houses G4080.1 of clay, G1537 of G3739 whom G2532 also G1473 we G1537 [²from out of G3588 ³the G1473 ⁴same G4081 ⁵mortar G1510.2.4 ¹are] -- G3817 he smites G1473 them G4597 [²of a moth G5158 ¹in the manner].

20 G2532 And G575 from G4405.1 morning G2193 until G2073 evening G3765 [²no longer G1510.2.6 ¹they are]; G3844 by G3588 their G3361 not G1410 being able G1473 [³themselves G1438 ¹to help themselves G997 G622 ²they] perish.

21 G4900.2 You raised up together G3588 G5274.1 their vestige G1722 in G1473 them; G622 they perished G3844 by G3588 G3361 [²not G2192 ³having G1473 ¹their] G4678 wisdom.

12 H1697 Now a thing H1589 [H8792] was secretly brought H241 to me, and my ear H3947 [H8799] received H8102 a whisper of it.

13 H5587 In thoughts H2384 from the visions H3915 of the night, H8639 when deep sleep H5307 [H8800] falleth H582 on men,

14 H6343 Fear H7122 [H8804] came H7461 upon me, and trembling, H7230 which made all H6106 my bones H6342 [H8689] to shake.

15 H7307 Then a spirit H2498 [H8799] passed H6440 before my face; H8185 the hair H1320 of my flesh H5568 [H8762] stood up:

16 H5975 [H8799] It stood still, H5234 [H8686] but I could not discern H4758 its form: H8544 an image H5869 was before my eyes, H1827 there was silence, H8085 [H8799] and I heard H6963 a voice, saying,

17 H582 Shall mortal man H6663 [H8799] be more just H433 than God? H1397 shall a man H2891 [H8799] be more pure H6213 [H8802] than his maker?

18 H539 [H8686] Behold, he put no trust H5650 in his servants; H4397 and his messengers H7760 [H8799] he charged H8417 with folly:

19 H637 How much less H7931 [H8802] in them that dwell H1004 in houses H2563 of clay, H3247 whose foundation H6083 is in the dust, H1792 [H8762] who are crushed H6440 at the face of H6211 the moth?

20 H3807 [H8714] They are bruised H1242 from morning H6153 to evening: H6 [H8799] they are lost H5331 for ever H7760 [H8688] without any regarding it.

21 H3499 Doth not their excellency H5265 [H8738] which is in them depart? H4191 [H8799] they die, H2451 even without wisdom.

Clementine_Vulgate⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Porro ad me dictum est verbum absconditum, et quasi furtive suscepit auris mea venas susurri ejus. ¹³ In horrore visionis nocturnæ, quando solet sopor occupare homines, ¹⁴ pavor tenuit me, et tremor, et omnia ossa mea perterrita sunt; ¹⁵ et cum spiritus, me præsente, transiret, inhorruerunt pili carnis meæ. ¹⁶ Stetit quidam, cujus non agnoscebam vultum, imago coram oculis meis, et vocem quasi auræ lenis audivi. ¹⁷ Numquid homo, Dei comparatione, justificabitur? aut factore suo purior erit vir? ¹⁸ Ecce qui serviunt ei, non sunt stabiles, et in angelis suis reperit pravitatem; ¹⁹ quanto magis hi qui habitant domos luteas, qui terrenum habent fundamentum, consumentur velut a tinea? ²⁰ De mane usque ad vesperam succidentur; et quia nullus intelligit, in æternum peribunt. ²¹ Qui autem reliqui fuerint, auferentur ex eis; morientur, et non in sapientia.]

Wycliffe⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Certis an hid word was seid to me, and myn eere took as theueli the veynes of priuy noise therof. ¹³ In the hidousnesse of `nyytis siyt, whanne heuy sleep is wont to occupie men, ¹⁴ drede and tremblyng helde me; and alle my boonys weren aferd. ¹⁵ And whanne the spirit `yede in my presence, the heiris of `my fleisch hadden hidousnesse. ¹⁶ Oon stood, whos chere Y knewe not, an ymage bifor myn iyen; and Y herde a vois as of softe wynd. ¹⁷ Whether a man schal be maad iust in comparisoun of God? ethir whethir a man schal be clennere than his Makere? ¹⁸ Lo! thei that seruen hym ben not stidefast; and he findith schrewidnesse in hise aungels. ¹⁹ Hou myche more thei that dwellen in housis of cley, that han an ertheli foundement, schulen be wastyd as of a mouyte. ²⁰ Fro morewtid til to euentid thei schulen be kit doun; and for no man vndurstondith, thei schulen perische with outen ende. ²¹ Sotheli thei, that ben residue, schulen be takun awei; thei schulen die, and not in wisdom.

Coverdale⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² There is spoken vnto me a thynge in councell, which hath geuen a terrible sounde in myne eare, ¹³ with a vision in the night, when men are fallen a slepe. ¹⁴ Soch feare and drede came vpo me, that all my bones shoke. ¹⁵ And when the wynde passed ouer by me, the hayres of my flesh stode vp. ¹⁶ Then stode there one before me, whose face I knewe not: an ymage there was, and the wether was still, so that I herde this voyce: ¹⁷ Maye a man be iustified before God? Maye there eny man be iudged to be clene, by reason of his owne workes? ¹⁸ Beholde, he hath founde vnfaythfulnesse amonge his owne seruauntes, and proude disobedience amonge his angels. ¹⁹ How moch more the shal they (that dwell in houses of claye, whose foundacion is but earth) be moth eaten? ²⁰ They shalbe destroyed from the mornynge vnto the euenynge: yee they shall perish, or euer they be awarre: ²¹ and be taken awaye so clene, that none of the shall remayne, but be deed, or euer they be awarre off it.

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² "And unto me came the word secretly, and mine ear hath received a little thereof. ¹³ In the fantasies and thoughts of the visions of the night, when sleep cometh on men: ¹⁴ Fear came upon me, and dread, and made all my bones to shake. ¹⁵ And when the wind passed by before my presence it made the hairs of my flesh stand up. ¹⁶ He stood there, and I knew not his face. An image there was, before mine eyes, and in the stillness heard I a voice. ¹⁷ 'Shall man be more just than God? Or shall man be purer than his maker? ¹⁸ Behold, he hath found unfaithfulness among his own servants, and proud disobedience among his angels. ¹⁹ How much more then shall they that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is but earth: which shall be consumed by the moth? ²⁰ They shall be destroyed from morning unto the evening: yea, they shall perish everlastingly, and no man think thereon. ²¹ Is not their dignity taken away with them? They shall die - and not in wisdom.'

Matthew⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And vnto me was the worde hydde, and myne eare hathe receyued a lytell therof. ¹³ In the phantasyes and thoughtes of the vysyons of the nyght, when slepe cometh on men: ¹⁴ feare came vpon me and drede & made my bones to shake. ¹⁵ And when the wynd passed by before my presence it made the heares of my flesshe stande vp. ¹⁶ He stode there and I knew not his face, an ymage there was before me & there was stylnes, so that I heard thys voyce. ¹⁷ Shall man be moare iust then God? Or shall man be purer then his maker? ¹⁸ Behold there is no trust to his seruauntes, and in his aungelles hath he founde frowardnes. ¹⁹ How moche moare in them that dwell in houses of claye whose foundacion is but earth, which shalbe consumed by the Moth. ²⁰ They shalbe smytten from the mornynge vnto the euenyng yee they shall perysh euerlastynglye, and no man thincke theron. ²¹ Is not their dignitie taken awaye with them, they shall dye and not in wysdome.

Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And vnto me came the worde secretly, & myne eare hath receaueth a lytell therof. ¹³ In the thoughtes and visyons of the night (when slepe commeth on men) ¹⁴ feare came vpon me, and drede, which made all my bones to shake. ¹⁵ The wynde passed by, before my presence, and made the heares of my flesh to stande vp. ¹⁶ He stode there, and I knew not hys face, an ymage ther was before myne eyes, and in the stylnesse hearde I a voyce. ¹⁷ Shall man be more iust than God? Or shall a man be purer than hys maker? ¹⁸ Beholde, He founde no treuth in hys seruauntes, and in hys aungels ther was foly. ¹⁹ How moch more in them that dwell in houses of claye, and whose foundacyon is but dust: which shalbe consumed as it were with a Moth? ²⁰ They shalbe smitten from the mornynge vnto the euenyng: yee, they shall perysh for euer, when no man thincketh theron. ²¹ It is not their royaltye gone awaye with them: they shal dye trulye, and not in wysdome.

17 H582 Zou een mens H6663 H8799 rechtvaardiger H4480 zijn dan H433 God H518 ? H1397 Zou een man H2891 H8799 reiner H4480 zijn dan H6213 H8802 zijn Maker?

18 H2005 Zie H5650 , op Zijn knechten H3808 zou Hij niet H539 H8686 vertrouwen H4397 ; hoewel Hij in Zijn engelen H8417 klaarheid H7760 H8799 gesteld heeft.

19 H637 Hoeveel te min H2563 [op] degenen, die lemen H1004 huizen H7931 H8802 bewonen H834 , welker H3247 grondslag H6083 in het stof H1792 H8762 is? Zij worden verbrijzeld H6440 voor H6211 de motten.

20 H4480 Van H1242 den morgen H5704 tot H6153 den avond H3807 H8714 worden zij vermorzeld H4480 H1097 ; zonder H7760 H8688 dat men er acht op slaat H6 H8799 , vergaan zij H5331 in eeuwigheid.

21 H5265 H8738 Verreist H3808 niet H3499 hun uitnemendheid H4191 H8799 met hen? Zij sterven H3808 , maar niet H2451 in wijsheid.

Giguet⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² ¶ S’il y a quelque chose de vrai dans tes paroles, il n’en est résulté aucun soulagement à tes maux. Et moi, dois-je négliger les avertissements extraordinaires qui, de la part du Seigneur, sont venus à mes oreilles? ¹³ Ecoute: comme l’effroi se répandait parmi les hommes pendant l’horreur et les bruits sinistres de la nuit, ¹⁴ Un tremblement, un frisson me saisirent, et mes os s’entrechoquèrent. ¹⁵ Et un esprit se posa sur mon visage, et mes cheveux et mes chairs en frémirent. ¹⁶ Je me levai et ne vis rien; je reconnus qu’il n’y avait aucune forme devant mes yeux; et je sentis un souffle et j’entendis une voix, et elle disait: ¹⁷ Quoi donc! Est-ce qu’un mortel sera pur devant le Seigneur? Est-ce qu’un homme sera irréprochable en ses œuvres, ¹⁸ Puisque Dieu ne peut se fier à ses serviteurs et qu’il découvre des défauts à ses anges? ¹⁹ Il écrase comme des vermisseaux ceux qui habitent des maisons de boue, de cette boue d’où nous avons été tirés. ²⁰ L’aurore se lève sur eux et le soir ils ne sont plus; pour n’avoir pu s’aider eux-mêmes, ils ont péri. ²¹ Car Dieu d’un souffle les a desséchés, et ils sont morts parce qu’ils manquaient de sagesse.

DarbyFR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹²
Une parole vint à moi secrètement, et mon oreille en saisit la susurration. ¹³ Au milieu des pensées que font naître les visions de la nuit, quand un sommeil profond tombe sur les hommes, ¹⁴ La frayeur vint sur moi, et le frisson, et elle fit trembler la multitude de mes os; ¹⁵ Et un esprit passa devant moi: les cheveux de ma chair se dressèrent. ¹⁶ Il se tint là; je ne reconnus pas son apparence: une forme était devant mes yeux. J'entendis un léger murmure et une voix: ¹⁷ Un mortel sera-t-il plus juste que +Dieu, l'homme sera-t-il plus pur que celui qui l'a fait? ¹⁸ Voici, il ne se fie pas à ses serviteurs, et ses anges il les charge de folie; ¹⁹ Combien plus à ceux qui habitent dans des maisons d'argile dont le fondement est dans la poussière, qui sont écrasés comme la teigne! ²⁰ Du matin au soir, ils sont frappés; ils périssent pour toujours sans qu'on y fasse attention. ²¹ Leurs cordes ne leur sont-elles pas arrachées? Ils meurent, et sans sagesse.

Martin⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Mais quant à moi, une parole m'a été adressée en secret, et mon oreille en a entendu quelque peu. ¹³ Pendant les pensées diverses des visions de la nuit, quand un profond sommeil saisit les hommes, ¹⁴ Une frayeur et un tremblement me saisirent qui étonnèrent tous mes os. ¹⁵ Un esprit passa devant moi, et mes cheveux en furent tout hérissés. ¹⁶ Il se tint là, mais je ne connus point son visage; une représentation était devant mes yeux, et j'ouïs une voix basse qui disait : ¹⁷ L'homme sera-t-il plus juste que Dieu ? l'homme sera-t-il plus pur que celui qui l'a fait ? ¹⁸ Voici, il ne s'assure point sur ses serviteurs, et il met la lumière dans ses Anges : ¹⁹ Combien moins s'assurera-t-il en ceux qui demeurent dans des maisons d'argile; en ceux dont le fondement est dans la poussière, et qui sont consumés à la rencontre d'un vermisseau ? ²⁰ Du matin au soir ils sont brisés, et, sans qu'on s'en aperçoive, ils périssent pour toujours. ²¹ L'excellence qui était en eux, n'a-t-elle pas été emportée ? Ils meurent sans être sages.

Segond⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Une parole est arrivée furtivement jusqu'à moi, Et mon oreille en a recueilli les sons légers. ¹³ Au moment où les visions de la nuit agitent la pensée, Quand les hommes sont livrés à un profond sommeil, ¹⁴ Je fus saisi de frayeur et d'épouvante, Et tous mes os tremblèrent. ¹⁵ Un esprit passa près de moi.... Tous mes cheveux se hérissèrent.... ¹⁶ Une figure d'un aspect inconnu était devant mes yeux, Et j'entendis une voix qui murmurait doucement: ¹⁷ L'homme serait-il juste devant Dieu? Serait-il pur devant celui qui l'a fait? ¹⁸ Si Dieu n'a pas confiance en ses serviteurs, S'il trouve de la folie chez ses anges, ¹⁹ Combien plus chez ceux qui habitent des maisons d'argile, Qui tirent leur origine de la poussière, Et qui peuvent être écrasés comme un vermisseau! ²⁰ Du matin au soir ils sont brisés, Ils périssent pour toujours, et nul n'y prend garde; ²¹ Le fil de leur vie est coupé, Ils meurent, et ils n'ont pas acquis la sagesse.

SE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² El negocio también me era a mí oculto; mas mi oído ha percibido algo de ello. ¹³ En imaginaciones de visiones nocturnas, cuando el sueño cae sobre los hombres, ¹⁴ me sobrevino un espanto y un temblor, que estremeció todos mis huesos. ¹⁵ Y un espíritu que pasó por delante de mí, hizo que se erizara el vello de mi carne. ¹⁶ Se paró un fantasma delante de mis ojos, cuyo rostro yo no conocí, y quedo, oí que decía: ¹⁷ ¿Por ventura será el hombre más justo que Dios? ¿Será el varón más limpio que el que lo hizo? ¹⁸ He aquí que en sus siervos no confía, y en sus ángeles halló locura. ¹⁹ Cuánto más en los que habitan en casas de lodo, cuyo fundamento está en el polvo, y que serán quebrantados de la polilla! ²⁰ De la mañana a la tarde son quebrantados, y se pierden para siempre, sin haber quien lo considere. ²¹ ¿Su hermosura, no se pierde con ellos mismos?

Albanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Një fjalë më ka ardhur fshehurazi dhe veshi im ka zënë pëshpëritjen e saj. ¹³ Midis mendimeve të vizioneve të natës, kur një gjumë i rëndë bie mbi njerëzit, ¹⁴ më pushtoi një llahtari e madhe dhe një rrëqethje që bëri të dridhen gjithë kockat e mia. ¹⁵ Një frymë më kaloi përpara, dhe m'u ngritën përpjetë qimet e trupit. ¹⁶ Ai u ndal, por nuk munda ta dalloj pamjen e tij; një figurë më rrinte para syve; kishte heshtje, pastaj dëgjova një zë që thoshte: ¹⁷ "A mund të jetë një i vdekshëm më i drejtë se Perëndia? A mund të jetë një njeri më i pastër se Krijuesi i tij? ¹⁸ Ja, ai nuk u zë besë as shërbëtorëve të tij, dhe gjen madje të meta edhe tek engjëjt e tij; ¹⁹ aq më tepër tek ata që banojnë në shtëpi prej argjile, themelet e të cilave janë në pluhur, dhe shtypen si një tenjë. ²⁰ Nga mëngjesi deri në mbrëmje shkatërrohen; zhduken për fare, dhe asnjeri nuk i vë re. ²¹ Litarin e çadrës së tyre vallë a nuk ua këpusin? Ata vdesin, por pa dituri"".

RST⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² И вот, ко мне тайно принеслось слово, и ухо мое приняло нечто от него. ¹³ Среди размышлений о ночных видениях, когда сон находит на людей, ¹⁴ объял меня ужас и трепет и потряс все кости мои. ¹⁵ И дух прошел надо мною; дыбом стали волосы на мне. ¹⁶ Он стал, – но я не распознал вида его, – только облик был пред глазами моими; тихое веяние, – и я слышу голос: ¹⁷ человек праведнее ли Бога? и муж чище ли Творцасвоего? ¹⁸ Вот, Он и слугам Своим не доверяет и в Ангелах Своих усматривает недостатки: ¹⁹ тем более – в обитающих в храминах из брения, которых основание прах, которые истребляются скорее моли. ²⁰ Между утром и вечером они распадаются; не увидишь, как они вовсе исчезнут. ²¹ Не погибают ли с ними и достоинства их? Они умирают, не достигнув мудрости.

Arabic⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² ثم اليّ تسللت كلمة فقبلت اذني منها ركزا. ¹³ في الهواجس من رؤى الليل عند وقوع سبات على الناس ¹⁴ اصابني رعب ورعدة فرجفت كل عظامي. ¹⁵ فمرّت روح على وجهي. اقشعر شعر جسدي. ¹⁶ وقفت ولكني لم اعرف منظرها. شبه قدام عينيّ. سمعت صوتا منخفضا ¹⁷ أالانسان ابرّ من الله ام الرجل اطهر من خالقه. ¹⁸ هوذا عبيده لا يأتمنهم والى ملائكته ينسب حماقة. ¹⁹ فكم بالحري سكان بيوت من طين الذين اساسهم في التراب ويسحقون مثل العث. ²⁰ بين الصباح والمساء يحطمون. بدون منتبه اليهم الى الابد يبيدون ²¹ أما انتزعت منهم طنبهم. يموتون بلا حكمة

Bulgarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² А до мен достигна скришно дума и ухото ми от нея шепот долови. ¹³ Сред мислите от нощните видения, когато дълбок сън хората напада, ¹⁴ ужас ме обзе и потреперих, и всичките ми кости се разтресоха. ¹⁵ Тогава дух премина пред лицето ми и космите на тялото ми се изправиха. ¹⁶ Застана — но аз изгледа му не познах — като образ пред очите ми, мълчание, и чувам глас: ¹⁷ Може ли смъртен човек да е по-праведен от Бога? Може ли човек да е по-чист от Създателя си? ¹⁸ Той на слугите Си не се доверява и ангелите Си в заблуда обвинява, ¹⁹ а колко повече онези, които живеят в къщи от кал, чиято основа е в пръстта, и които се смазват по-бързо от молеца! ²⁰ От сутринта до вечерта се съсипват, без някой да забележи, погиват завинаги. ²¹ Щом се дръпнат въжетата на шатрите им, те умират; и то умират без мъдрост.

Croatian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Tajna riječ se meni objavila, šapat njen je uho moje čulo. ¹³ Noću, kada snovi duh obuzmu i san dubok kad na ljude pada, ¹⁴ strah i trepet mene su svladali, kosti moje žestoko se stresle. ¹⁵ Dah mi neki preko lica prođe, digoše se dlake na mom tijelu. ¹⁶ Stajao je netko - lica mu ne poznah - ali likom bješe pred očima mojim. Posvuda tišina; uto začuh šapat: ¹⁷ 'Zar je smrtnik koji pred Bogom pravedan? Zar je čovjek čist pred svojim Stvoriteljem? ¹⁸ Ni slugama svojim više ne vjeruje, i anđele svoje za grijeh okrivljuje - ¹⁹ kako ne bi onda goste stanova glinenih kojima je temelj u prahu zemaljskom. Gle, kao moljce njih sveudilj satiru: ²⁰ od jutra do mraka u prah pretvore, nestaju zasvagda - nitko i ne vidi. ²¹ Iščupan je kolčić njihova šatora, pogibaju skoro, mudrost ne spoznavši.'

BKR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Nebo i tajně doneslo se mne slovo, a pochopilo ucho mé něco maličko toho. ¹³ V přemyšlováních z vidění nočních, když připadá tvrdý sen na lidi, ¹⁴ Strach připadl na mne a lekání, kteréž předěsilo všecky kosti mé. ¹⁵ Duch zajisté před tváří mou šel, tak že vlasové vstávali na těle mém. ¹⁶ Zastavil se, ale neznal jsem tváři jeho; tvárnost jen byla před očima mýma. Mezi tím mlče, slyšel jsem hlas: ¹⁷ Zdaliž může člověk spravedlivějším býti než Bůh, aneb muž čistším nad toho, kterýž ho učinil? ¹⁸ Ano mezi služebníky jeho není dokonalosti, a při andělích svých zanechal nedostatku. ¹⁹ Čím více při těch, kteříž bydlejí v domích hliněných, jejichž základ jest na prachu, a setříni bývají snáze než mol. ²⁰ Od jitra až do večera stíráni bývají, a kdož toho nerozvažují, na věky zahynou. ²¹ Zdaliž nepomíjí sláva jejich s nimi? Umírají, ale ne v moudrosti.

Danish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Men mig, er et Ord tilbragt hemmeligt, og mit Øre fattede en sagte Lyd deraf ¹³ i Tanker, fremkaldte ved Syner om Natten, naar dyb Søvn falder paa Folk; ¹⁴ da kom Frygt og Bævelse paa mig og bragte mine Ben til at skælve; ¹⁵ og en Aand gik frem for mit Ansigt; Haarene rejste sig paa mit Legeme; ¹⁶ den blev staaende, og jeg kunde ikke kende dens Skikkelse; der svævede et Billede for mine Øjne; det var stille, og jeg hørte en Røst: ¹⁷ Mon et Menneske kan holdes retfærdigt for Gud monne en Mand være ren for den, som skabte ham? ¹⁸ Se, han tror ikke paa sine Tjenere, og sine Engle tillægger han Daarskab, ¹⁹ endsige da dem, som bo i Lerhuse, og hvis Grundvold er i Støvet; man kan støde dem smaa før Møl; ²⁰ fra Morgen og indtil Aften sønderknuses de; uden at der er nogen, som lægger det paa Hjerte, gaa de til Grunde. ²¹ Farer ikke deres Herlighed, som var i dem bort? ja, de dø, men ikke i Visdom.

Ata zanj li yo, li jwenn bagay pou l' repwoche yo. ¹⁹ Ale wè atò pou moun ki fèt ak labou, pou moun ki soti nan pousyè tè, pou moun yo kapab kraze tankou poudbwa! ²⁰ Yon sèl jou kont pou yo tounen pousyè, yo disparèt nèt. Pesonn pa wè sa. ²¹ Yo rete konsa yo kase kòd. Yo mouri san yo pa janm rive fin gen bon konprann.

Hungarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Szó lopódzék hozzám, s valami nesz üté meg abból fülemet. ¹³ Éjjeli látásokon való töprengések között, mikor mély álom fogja el az embereket. ¹⁴ Félelem szálla rám, és rettegés, s megreszketteté minden csontomat. ¹⁵ Valami szellem suhant el elõttem, s testemnek szõre felborzolódék. ¹⁶ Megálla, de ábrázatját föl nem ismerém, egy alak vala szemeim elõtt, mély csend, és [ilyen] szót hallék: ¹⁷ Vajjon a halandó igaz-é Istennél: az õ teremtõje elõtt tiszta-é az ember? ¹⁸ Ímé az õ szolgáiban sem bízhatik és az õ angyalaiban is talál hibát: ¹⁹ Mennyivel inkább a sárházak lakosaiban, a kiknek fundamentumok a porban van, és könnyebben szétnyomhatók a molynál?! ²⁰ Reggeltõl estig gyötrõdnek, s a nélkül, hogy észrevennék, elvesznek örökre. ²¹ Ha kiszakíttatik belõlök sátoruk kötele, nem halnak-é meg, és pedig bölcsesség nélkül?

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Pernah suatu wahyu sampai kepadaku, bagaikan bisikan halus dalam telingaku. ¹³ Tidurku terganggu dan terusik olehnya, seperti mendapat mimpi yang buruk di malam buta. ¹⁴ Aku pun terkejut dan menggigil gentar; seluruh tubuhku bergundang, gemetar. ¹⁵ Angin sepoi menyentuh wajahku, maka tegaklah bulu romaku. ¹⁶ Suatu sosok berdiri di hadapanku; kutatap, tetapi ia asing bagiku. Lalu kudengar bunyi suara memecah heningnya suasana, ¹⁷ 'Mungkinkah manusia tanpa salah di hadapan Allah? Mungkinkah ia tidak bercela di mata Penciptanya? ¹⁸ Bahkan hamba-hamba Allah di surga, tak dapat dipercayai oleh-Nya. Bahkan pada malaikat-malaikat-Nya didapati-Nya kesalahan dan cela. ¹⁹ Apalagi makhluk dari tanah liat makhluk debu yang dapat dipencet seperti ngengat! ²⁰ Makhluk itu hidup di waktu pagi, lalu mati terlantar di senja hari, dan untuk selamanya ia tak diingat lagi. ²¹ Maka hilanglah segala yang dimiliki; ia pun mati tanpa beroleh akal budi.'

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Or mi è stata di nascosto significata una parola, E l’orecchio mio ne ha ritenuto un poco. ¹³ Fra le immaginazioni delle visioni notturne, Quando il più profondo sonno cade sopra gli uomini, ¹⁴ Mi è venuto uno spavento ed un tremito, Che ha spaventate tutte quante le mie ossa. ¹⁵ Ed uno spirito è passato davanti a me, Che mi ha fatto arricciare i peli della mia carne; ¹⁶ Egli si è fermato, ed io non ho riconosciuto il suo aspetto; Una sembianza è stata davanti agli occhi miei, Ed io ho udita una voce sommessa che diceva: ¹⁷ L’uomo sarebbe egli giustificato da Dio? L’uomo sarebbe egli giudicato puro dal suo fattore? ¹⁸ Ecco, egli non si fida ne’ suoi servitori, E scorge della temerità ne’ suoi Angeli. ¹⁹ Quanto più in coloro che abitano in case di fango, Il cui fondamento è nella polvere, E che son ridotti in polvere, esposti a’ vermi? ²⁰ Dalla mattina alla sera sono stritolati, E periscono in perpetuo, senza che alcuno vi ponga mente. ²¹ L’eccellenza ch’era in loro non si diparte ella? Muoiono, ma non con sapienza.

ItalianRiveduta⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Una parola m’è furtivamente giunta, e il mio orecchio ne ha còlto il lieve sussurro. ¹³ Fra i pensieri delle visioni notturne, quando un sonno profondo cade sui mortali, ¹⁴ uno spavento mi prese, un tremore che mi fece fremer tutte l’ossa. ¹⁵ Uno spirito mi passò dinanzi, e i peli mi si rizzarono addosso. ¹⁶ Si fermò, ma non riconobbi il suo sembiante; una figura mi stava davanti agli occhi e udii una voce sommessa che diceva: ¹⁷ "Può il mortale esser giusto dinanzi a Dio? Può l’uomo esser puro dinanzi al suo Fattore? ¹⁸ Ecco, Iddio non si fida de’ suoi propri servi, e trova difetti nei suoi angeli; ¹⁹ quanto più in quelli che stanno in case d’argilla, che han per fondamento la polvere e son schiacciati al par delle tignuole! ²⁰ Tra la mattina e la sera sono infranti; periscono per sempre, senza che alcuno se ne accorga. ²¹ La corda della lor tenda, ecco, è strappata, e muoion senza posseder la sapienza".

Korean⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² 무슨 말씀이 내게 가만히 임하고 그 가는 소리가 내 귀에 들렸었나니 ¹³ 곧 사람이 깊이 잠들 때쯤 하여서니라 내가 그 밤의 이상으로 하여 생각이 번거로울 때에 ¹⁴ 두려움과 떨림이 내게 이르러서 모든 골절이 흔들렸었느니라 ¹⁵ 그 때에 영이 내 앞으로 지나매 내 몸에 털이 주뼛하였었느니라 ¹⁶ 그 영이 서는데 그 형상을 분변치는 못하여도 오직 한 형상이 내 눈 앞에 있었느니라 그 때 내가 종용한 중에 목소리를 들으니 이르기를 ¹⁷ 인생이 어찌 하나님보다 의롭겠느냐 ? 사람이 어찌 그 창조하신 이보다 성결하겠느냐 ? ¹⁸ 하나님은 그 종이라도 오히려 믿지 아니하시며 그 사자라도 미련하다 하시나니 ¹⁹ 하물며 흙 집에 살며 티끌로 터를 삼고 하루살이에게라도 눌려 죽을 자이겠느냐 ? ²⁰ 조석 사이에 멸한 바 되며 영원히 망하되 생각하는 자가 없으리라 ²¹ 장막 줄을 그들에게서 뽑지 아니하겠느냐 ? 그들이 죽나니 지혜가 있느니라

Lithuanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Paslaptis mane aplankė ir mano ausis ją nugirdo. ¹³ Mąstant apie nakties regėjimus, kai gilus miegas buvo apėmęs žmones, ¹⁴ mane apėmė išgąstis ir drebėjimas, ir visi mano kaulai tirtėjo. ¹⁵ Dvasia praėjo pro mano veidą, ir mano plaukai pasišiaušė. ¹⁶ Ji stovėjo, tačiau jos neatpažinau. Pavidalas buvo prieš mano akis; buvo tylu, ir aš išgirdau balsą: ¹⁷ ‘Ar mirtingas žmogus gali būti teisesnis už Dievą? Ar jis gali būti tyresnis už savo Kūrėją? ¹⁸ Savo tarnais Jis nepasitiki ir mato angelų klaidas. ¹⁹ Juo labiau tie, kurie gyvena molio namuose, kurių pamataidulkės. Jie sunyks kandžių suėsti. ²⁰ Jie naikinami nuo ryto iki vakaro ir pražūna niekieno nepastebimi. ²¹ Argi jų didybė nepranyksta? Jie miršta tiesos nesuvokdami’ ”.

PBG⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Nadto doszło mię słowo potajemnie, i pojęło ucho moje cokolwiek z niego. ¹³ W rozmyślaniu widzenia nocnego, gdy przypada twardy sen na ludzi, ¹⁴ Zdjął mię strach i lękanie, które wszystkie kości moje przestraszyło. ¹⁵ A duch szedł przed twarzą moją, tak, iż włosy wstały na ciele mojem. ¹⁶ Stanął, a nie znałem twarzy jego, kształt tylko jakiś był przed oczyma memi; uciszyłem się, i słyszałem głos mówiący: ¹⁷ Izali człowiek może być sprawiedliwszy niżeli Bóg; albo mąż czystszy niż Stworzyciel jego? ¹⁸ Oto w sługach jego niemasz doskonałości, a w Aniołach swoich znalazł niedostatek; ¹⁹ Daleko więcej w tych, co mieszkają w domach glinianych, których grunt jest na prochu, i starci bywają snadniej niżeli mól. ²⁰ Od poranku aż do wieczora bywają starci; a iż tego nie uważają, na wieki zginą. ²¹ Azaż zacność ich nie pomija z nimi? umierają, ale nie w mądrości.

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Ora, uma palavra se me disse em segredo, e os meus ouvidos perceberam um sussurro dela. ¹³ Entre pensamentos nascidos de visões nocturnas, quando cai sobre os homens o sono profundo, ¹⁴ sobrevieram-me o espanto e o tremor, que fizeram estremecer todos os meus ossos. ¹⁵ Então um espírito passou por diante de mim; arrepiaram-se os cabelos do meu corpo. ¹⁶ Parou ele, mas não pude discernir a sua aparência; um vulto estava diante dos meus olhos; houve silêncio, então ouvi uma voz que dizia: ¹⁷ Pode o homem mortal ser justo diante de Deus? Pode o varão ser puro diante do seu Criador? ¹⁸ Eis que Deus não confia nos seus servos, e até a seus anjos atribui loucura; ¹⁹ quanto mais aos que habitam em casas de lodo, cujo fundamento está no pó, e que são esmagados pela traça! ²⁰ Entre a manhã e a tarde são destruídos; perecem para sempre sem que disso se faça caso. ²¹ Se dentro deles é arrancada a corda da sua tenda, porventura não morrem, e isso sem atingir a sabedoria?

Norwegian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Og til mig stjal sig et ord; det lød for mitt øre som en hvisken, ¹³ under skiftende tanker ved nattlige syner, når dyp søvn faller på menneskene. ¹⁴ Frykt og beven kom over mig, så alle mine ben tok til å skjelve. ¹⁵ Og en ånd fór forbi mitt åsyn; hårene på mitt legeme reiste sig. ¹⁶ Den blev stående, men jeg skjelnet ikke klart hvorledes den så ut - det var en skikkelse som stod der for mine øine; jeg hørte en stille susen og en røst: ¹⁷ Er et menneske rettferdig for Gud, eller en mann ren for sin skaper? ¹⁸ Se, på sine tjenere stoler han ikke, og hos sine engler finner han feil*, / {* d.e. ufullkommenhet.} ¹⁹ hvor meget mere da hos dem som bor i hus av ler, og som har sin grunnvoll i støvet - de som knuses lettere enn møll. ²⁰ Fra morgen til aften - så er de sønderslått; uten at nogen akter på det, går de til grunne for alltid. ²¹ Blir ikke teltsnoren dradd ut* hos dem? De dør, men ikke i visdom. / {* så deres jordiske telt (2KO 5, 1.) faller sammen.}

Romanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Un cuvînt s'a furişat pînă la mine, şi urechea mea i -a prins sunetele uşoare. ¹³ În clipa cînd vedeniile de noapte frămîntă gîndul, cînd oamenii sînt cufundaţi într'un somn adînc, ¹⁴ m'a apucat groaza şi spaima, şi toate oasele mi-au tremut. ¹⁵ Un duh a trecut pe lîngă mine... Tot părul mi s'a sbîrlit ca ariciul... ¹⁶ Un chip cu o înfăţişare necunoscută era înaintea ochilor mei. Şi am auzit un glas care şoptea încetişor: ¹⁷ ,,Fi-va omul fără vină înaintea lui Dumnezeu? Fi-va el curat înaintea Celui ce l -a făcut? ¹⁸ Dacă n'are încredere Dumnezeu nici în slujitorii Săi, dacă găseşte El greşeli chiar la îngerii Săi, ¹⁹ cu cît mai mult la cei ce locuiesc în case de lut, cari îşi trag obîrşia din ţărînă, şi pot fi zdrobiţi ca un vierme! ²⁰ De dimineaţă pînă seara sînt zdrobiţi, pier pentru totdeauna, şi nimeni nu ţine seama de ei. ²¹ Li se taie firul vieţii: mor, şi tot n'au căpătat înţelepciunea!

Ukrainian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² І закрадається слово до мене, і моє ухо почуло ось дещо від нього. ¹³ у роздумуваннях над нічними видіннями, коли міцний сон обіймає людей, ¹⁴ спіткав мене жах та тремтіння, і багато костей моїх він струсонув, ¹⁵ і дух перейшов по обличчі моїм, стало дуба волосся на тілі моїм... ¹⁶ Він стояв, але я не пізнав його вигляду, образ навпроти очей моїх був, і тихий голос почув я: ¹⁷ Хіба праведніша людина за Бога, хіба чоловік за свойого Творця є чистіший? ¹⁸ Таж рабам Своїм Він не йме віри, і накладає вину й на Своїх Анголів! ¹⁹ Що ж тоді мешканці глиняних хат, що в поросі їхня основа? Як міль, вони будуть розчавлені! ²⁰ Вони товчені зранку до вечора, і без помочі гинуть назавжди... ²¹ Слава їхня минається з ними, вони помирають не в мудрості!...
