33:1  Hear therefore, O Job, my speeches, and hearken to all my words.

33:1  Audi igitur, Job, eloquia mea, et omnes sermones meos ausculta.

33:1  Wherefore, Job, I pray thee, hear my speeches, and hearken to all my words.

33:2  Behold now I have opened my mouth, let my tongue speak within my jaws.

33:2  Ecce aperui os meum : loquatur lingua mea in faucibus meis.

33:2  Behold, now I have opened my mouth, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth.

33:3  My words are from my upright heart, and my lips shall speak a pure sentence.

33:3  Simplici corde meo sermones mei, et sententiam puram labia mea loquentur.

33:3  My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.

33:4  The spirit of God made me, and the breath of the Almighty gave me life.

33:4  Spiritus Dei fecit me, et spiraculum Omnipotentis vivificavit me.

33:4  The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.

33:5  If thou canst, answer me, and stand up against my face.

33:5  Si potes, responde mihi, et adversus faciem meam consiste.

33:5  If thou canst answer me, set thy words in order before me, stand up.

33:6  Behold God hath made me as well as thee, and of the same clay I also was formed.

33:6  Ecce, et me sicut et te fecit Deus, et de eodem luto ego quoque formatus sum.

33:6  Behold, I am according to thy wish in God’s stead: I also am formed out of the clay.

33:7  But yet let not my wonder terrify thee, and let not my eloquence be burdensome to thee.

33:7  Verumtamen miraculum meum non te terreat, et eloquentia mea non sit tibi gravis.

33:7  Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my hand be heavy upon thee.

33:8  Now thou hast said in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words:

33:8  Dixisti ergo in auribus meis, et vocem verborum tuorum audivi :

33:8  Surely thou hast spoken in mine hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words, saying,

33:9  I am clean, and without sin: I am unspotted, and there is no iniquity in me.

33:9  Mundus sum ego, et absque delicto : immaculatus, et non est iniquitas in me.

33:9  I am clean without transgression, I am innocent; neither is there iniquity in me.

33:10  Because he hath found complaints against me, therefore he hath counted me for his enemy.

33:10  Quia querelas in me reperit, ideo arbitratus est me inimicum sibi.

33:10  Behold, he findeth occasions against me, he counteth me for his enemy,

33:11  He hath put my feet in the stocks, he hath observed all my paths.

33:11  Posuit in nervo pedes meos ; custodivit omnes semitas meas.

33:11  He putteth my feet in the stocks, he marketh all my paths.

33:12  Now this is the thing in which thou art not justified: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.

33:12  Hoc est ergo in quo non es justificatus : respondebo tibi, quia major sit Deus homine.

33:12  Behold, in this thou art not just: I will answer thee, that God is greater than man.

33:13  Dost thou strive against him, because he hath not answered thee to all words?

33:13  Adversus eum contendis, quod non ad omnia verba responderit tibi ?

33:13  Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters.

33:14  God speaketh once, and repeateth not the selfsame thing the second time.

33:14  Semel loquitur Deus, et secundo idipsum non repetit.

33:14  For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.

33:15  By a dream in a vision by night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, and they are sleeping in their beds:

33:15  Per somnium, in visione nocturna, quando irruit sopor super homines, et dormiunt in lectulo,

33:15  In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;

33:16  Then he openeth the ears of men, and teaching instructeth them in what they are to learn.

33:16  tunc aperit aures virorum, et erudiens eos instruit disciplina,

33:16  Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,

33:17  That he may withdraw a man from the things he is doing, and may deliver him from pride.

33:17  ut avertat hominem ab his quæ facit, et liberet eum de superbia,

33:17  That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.

33:18  Rescuing his soul from corruption: and his life from passing to the sword.

33:18  eruens animam ejus a corruptione, et vitam illius ut non transeat in gladium.

33:18  He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

33:19  He rebuketh also by sorrow in the bed, and he maketh all his bones to wither.

33:19  Increpat quoque per dolorem in lectulo, et omnia ossa ejus marcescere facit.

33:19  He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:

33:20  Bread becometh abominable to him in his life, and to his soul the meat which before he desired.

33:20  Abominabilis ei fit in vita sua panis, et animæ illius cibus ante desiderabilis.

33:20  So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.

33:21  His flesh shall be consumed away, and his bones that were covered shall be made bare.

33:21  Tabescet caro ejus, et ossa, quæ tecta fuerant, nudabuntur.

33:21  His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.

33:22  His soul hath drawn near to corruption, and his life to the destroyers.

33:22  Appropinquavit corruptioni anima ejus, et vita illius mortiferis.

33:22  Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.

33:23  If there shall be an angel speaking for him, one among thousands, to declare man's uprightness,

33:23  Si fuerit pro eo angelus loquens, unus de millibus, ut annuntiet hominis æquitatem,

33:23  If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:

33:24  He shall have mercy on him, and shall say: Deliver him, that he may not go down to corruption: I have found wherein I may be merciful to him.

33:24  miserebitur ejus, et dicet : Libera eum, ut non descendat in corruptionem : inveni in quo ei propitier.

33:24  Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.

33:25  His flesh is consumed with punishments, let him return to the days of his youth.

33:25  Consumpta est caro ejus a suppliciis : revertatur ad dies adolescentiæ suæ.

33:25  His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s: he shall return to the days of his youth:

33:26  He shall pray to God, and he will be gracious to him: and he shall see his face with joy, and he will render to man his justice.

33:26  Deprecabitur Deum, et placabilis ei erit : et videbit faciem ejus in jubilo, et reddet homini justitiam suam.

33:26  He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.

33:27  He shall look upon men, and shall say: I have sinned, and indeed I have offended, and I have not received what I have deserved.

33:27  Respiciet homines, et dicet : Peccavi, et vere deliqui, et ut eram dignus, non recepi.

33:27  He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;

33:28  He hath delivered his soul from going into destruction, that it may live and see the light.

33:28  Liberavit animam suam, ne pergeret in interitum, sed vivens lucem videret.

33:28  He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.

33:29  Behold, all these things God worketh three times within every one.

33:29  Ecce hæc omnia operatur Deus tribus vicibus per singulos,

33:29  Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,

33:30  That he may withdraw their souls from corruption, and enlighten them with the light of the living.

33:30  ut revocet animas eorum a corruptione, et illuminet luce viventium.

33:30  To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.

33:31  Attend, Job, and hearken to me, and hold thy peace, whilst I speak.

33:31  Attende, Job, et audi me : et tace, dum ego loquor.

33:31  Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I will speak.

33:32  But if thou hast any thing to say, answer me, speak: for I would have thee to appear just.

33:32  Si autem habes quod loquaris, responde mihi : loquere, volo enim te apparere justum.

33:32  If thou hast any thing to say, answer me: speak, for I desire to justify thee.

33:33  And if thou have not, hear me: hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom.

33:33  Quod si non habes, audi me : tace, et docebo te sapientiam.

33:33  If not, hearken unto me: hold thy peace, and I shall teach thee wisdom.
