욥기 27장 Coverdale Bible
- 1 Iob also proceaded and wete forth in his communicacion, sayege:
- 2 As truly as God lyueth (which hath taken awaye my power fro me) & the Allmightie, that hath vexed my mynde:
- 3 My lippes shall talke of no vanite, and my tonge shal speake no disceate,
- 4 whyle my breth is in me, and as longe as the wynde (that God hath geuen me) is in my nostrels.
- 5 God forbydde, that I shulde graunte youre cause to be right. As for me, vntill myne ende come wil I neuer go fro myne innocency.
- 6 My rightuous dealynge wil I kepe fast, & not forsake it: For my conscience reproueth me not in all my conuersacion.
- 7 Therfore myne enemy shalbe founde as the vngodly, & he yt taketh parte agaynst me, as the vnrightuous.
- 8 What hope hath ye Ypocrite, though he haue greate good, and though God geue him riches after his hertes desyre?
- 9 Doth God heare him the sooner, whe he crieth vnto him in his necessite?
- 10 Hath he soch pleasure & delyte in the Allmightie, that he darre allwaye call vpon God?
- 11 I wil teach you in the name of God, & the thinge that I haue of ye Allmightie, wil I not kepe from you.
- 12 Beholde, ye stonde in yor owne conceate, as though ye knew all thinges. Wherfore then do ye go aboute wt soch vayne wordes,
- 13 sayege: This is the porcion that the wicked shall haue of God, & the heretage that Tyrauntes shal receaue of ye Allmightie.
- 14 Yf he get many childre, they shal perish wt the swearde, & his posterite shall haue scarcenesse of bred.
- 15 Loke whom he leaueth behinde him, they shal dye & be buried, & no man shall haue pite of his wyddowes.
- 16 Though he haue as moch money as the dust of the earth, & raymet as ready as the claye,
- 17 he maye well prepare it: but the godly shal put it vpon him, and the innocet shal deale out the money.
- 18 His house shal endure as the moth, & as a bothe that the watch man maketh.
- 19 When the rich man dyeth, he carieth nothinge with him: he is gone in ye twincklynge of an eye.
- 20 Destruccion taketh holde vpo him as a water floude, & ye tepest stealeth him awaye in the night season.
- 21 A vehement wynde carieth him hence, & departeth: a storme plucketh him out of his place.
- 22 It ru?sheth in vpon him, and spareth him not, he maye not escape from the power therof.
- 23 Than clappe me their hodes at him, yee and ieast of him, whe they loke vpon his place.
