Gióp 31
Kinh Thánh Bản Truyền Thống ⇄ NET Bible
ஆய்வுƯớc nguyện với mắt — Gióp lập một lời thề trọng thể với mắt mình — ông sẽ không nhìn người nữ đồng trinh với lòng dâm dục. Trong văn hóa cổ xưa, một ước nguyện là một lời hứa ràng buộc, vì vậy đây là một sự tự bảo vệ trái tim mình, không chỉ hành động của ông.“I made a covenant with my eyes; how then could I entertain thoughts against a virgin?
What then would be one’s lot from God above, one’s heritage from the Almighty on high?
Is it not misfortune for the unjust, and disaster for those who work iniquity?
Does he not see my ways and count all my steps?
If I have walked in falsehood, and if my foot has hastened to deceit –
let him weigh me with honest scales; then God will discover my integrity.
If my footsteps have strayed from the way, if my heart has gone after my eyes, or if anything has defiled my hands,
then let me sow and let another eat, and let my crops be uprooted.
If my heart has been enticed by a woman, and I have lain in wait at my neighbor’s door,
then let my wife turn the millstone for another man, and may other men have sexual relations with her.
For I would have committed a shameful act, an iniquity to be judged.
For it is a fire that devours even to Destruction, and it would uproot all my harvest.
“If I have disregarded the right of my male servants or my female servants when they disputed with me,
then what will I do when God confronts me in judgment; when he intervenes, how will I respond to him?
Did not the one who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same one form us in the womb?
If I have refused to give the poor what they desired, or caused the eyes of the widow to fail,
If I ate my morsel of bread myself, and did not share any of it with orphans –
but from my youth I raised the orphan like a father, and from my mother’s womb I guided the widow!
If I have seen anyone about to perish for lack of clothing, or a poor man without a coat,
whose heart did not bless me as he warmed himself with the fleece of my sheep,
ஆய்வுGiúp đỡ tại cửa thành — Cửa thành là nơi các vụ kiện pháp lý được xét xử và công lý được thực thi. Gióp nói rằng ông chưa bao giờ sử dụng ảnh hưởng của mình ở đó để làm hại trẻ mồ côi, ngay cả khi ông có thể thắng kiện bằng quyền lực của mình.if I have raised my hand to vote against the orphan, when I saw my support in the court,
then let my arm fall from the shoulder, let my arm be broken off at the socket.
For the calamity from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his majesty I was powerless.
“If I have put my confidence in gold or said to pure gold, ‘You are my security!’
if I have rejoiced because of the extent of my wealth, or because of the great wealth my hand had gained,
if I looked at the sun when it was shining, and the moon advancing as a precious thing,
ஆய்வுHôn tay với mặt trời — Hôn tay về phía mặt trời hoặc mặt trăng là một cử chỉ thờ phượng ngoại giáo phổ biến. Gióp từ chối cả việc thờ lạy bí mật các ánh sáng được tạo ra này, khăng khăng rằng mọi sự thờ phượng thuộc về một mình Đức Chúa Trời.so that my heart was secretly enticed, and my hand threw them a kiss from my mouth,
then this also would be iniquity to be judged, for I would have been false to God above.
If I have rejoiced over the misfortune of my enemy or exulted because calamity found him –
I have not even permitted my mouth to sin by asking for his life through a curse –
if the members of my household have never said, ‘If only there were someone who has not been satisfied from Job’s meat!’ –
But no stranger had to spend the night outside, for I opened my doors to the traveler –
ஆய்வுNhư A-đam đã ẩn náu — Gióp nói rằng ông chưa bao giờ che giấu tội lỗi mình như A-đam đã làm trong vườn Ê-đen (Sáng thế ký 3:8). Ông từ chối che giấu những điều sai trái hoặc giả vờ, ngay cả khi ông biết Đức Chúa Trời thấy mọi thứ.(GEN 3:8)if I have covered my transgressions as men do, by hiding iniquity in my heart,
because I was terrified of the great multitude, and the contempt of families terrified me, so that I remained silent and would not go outdoors –
“If only I had someone to hear me! Here is my signature – let the Almighty answer me! If only I had an indictment that my accuser had written.
Surely I would wear it proudly on my shoulder, I would bind it on me like a crown;
I would give him an accounting of my steps; like a prince I would approach him.
“If my land cried out against me and all its furrows wept together,
if I have eaten its produce without paying, or caused the death of its owners,
then let thorns sprout up in place of wheat, and in place of barley, weeds!” The words of Job are ended.
