1.
אַחֲרֵי-כֵן, פָּתַח אִיּוֹב אֶת-פִּיהוּ, וַיְקַלֵּל, אֶת-יוֹמוֹ.
akharei-khen, patakh iyov et-pihu, vaykallel, et-yomo.
After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.
Hebrew to Tamil - Job - Chapter 3
← Homeof 42
2.
וַיַּעַן אִיּוֹב, וַיֹּאמַר.
vaya'an iyov, vayomar.
And Job spoke, and said:
3.
יֹאבַד יוֹם, אִוָּלֶד בּוֹ; וְהַלַּיְלָה אָמַר, הֹרָה גָבֶר.
yo'vad yom, i'valed bo; vehallaylah amar, horah gaver.
Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night wherein it was said: 'A man-child is brought forth.'
4.
הַיּוֹם הַהוּא, יְהִי-חֹשֶׁךְ:אַל-יִדְרְשֵׁהוּ אֱלוֹהַּ מִמַּעַל; וְאַל-תּוֹפַע עָלָיו נְהָרָה.
hayyom hahu, yehi-choshek: al-yidreshehu Elohim mimma'al; ve'al-tofa'a alav neharah.
Let that day be darkness; let not God inquire after it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.
5.
יִגְאָלֻהוּ, חֹשֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָוֶת--תִּשְׁכָּן-עָלָיו עֲנָנָה; יְבַעֲתֻהוּ, כִּמְרִירֵי יוֹם.
yig'aluhu, choshek vetzalmavet--tishkan-alav ananah; yeva'atuhu, kimrerei yom.
Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own; let a cloud dwell upon it; let all that maketh black the day terrify it.
6.
הַלַּיְלָה הַהוּא, יִקָּחֵהוּ-אֹפֶל:אַל-יִחַדְּ, בִּימֵי שָׁנָה; בְּמִסְפַּר יְרָחִים, אַל-יָבֹא.
hallaylah hahu, yikka'hehu-ofel: al-yichad, bimei shanah; bemispar yerachim, al-yavo.
As for that night, let thick darkness seize upon it; let it not rejoice among the days of the year; let it not come into the number of the months.
7.
הִנֵּה הַלַּיְלָה הַהוּא, יְהִי גַלְמוּד; אַל-תָּבוֹא רְנָנָה בוֹ.
hinneh hallaylah hahu, yehi galmud; al-tavo renanah vo.
Lo, let that night be desolate; let no joyful voice come therein.
8.
יִקְּבֻהוּ אֹרְרֵי-יוֹם; הָעֲתִידִים, עֹרֵר לִוְיָתָן.
yikquhu orrei-yom; ha'atidim, orer livyatan.
Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to rouse up leviathan.
9.
יֶחְשְׁכוּ, כּוֹכְבֵי נִשְׁפּוֹ: יְקַו-לְאוֹר וָאַיִן; וְאַל-יִרְאֶה, בְּעַפְעַפֵּי-שָׁחַר.
yekhshekhu, kokhvei nishpo: yikav-le'or va'ayin; ve'al-yir'eh, be'af'apei-shakhar.
Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; let it look for light, but have none; neither let it behold the eyelids of the morning;
10.
כִּי לֹא סָגַר, דַּלְתֵי בִטְנִי; וַיַּסְתֵּר עָמָל, מֵעֵינָי.
ki lo sagar, daltei vitni; vayaster amal, me'einay.
Because it shut not up the doors of my [mother's] womb, nor hid trouble from mine eyes.
11.
לָמָּה לֹּא מֵרֶחֶם אָמוּת; מִבֶּטֶן יָצָאתִי וְאֶגְוָע.
lamah lo merakhem amut mibeten yatzeati ve'egva.
Why died I not from the womb? Why did I not perish at birth?
12.
מַדּוּעַ, קִדְּמוּנִי בִרְכָּיִם; וּמַה-שָּׁדַיִם, כִּי אִינָק.
madu'a kidmuni virkayim umah shadayim ki inak.
Why did the knees receive me? And wherefore the breasts, that I should suck?
13.
כִּי-עַתָּה, שָׁכַבְתִּי וְאֶשְׁקוֹט; יָשַׁנְתִּי, אָז יָנוּחַ לִי.
ki-atah shakhavti ve'eshkot yashanti az yanli nakh.
For now should I have lain still and been quiet; I should have slept; then had I been at rest--
14.
עִם-מְלָכִים, וְיֹעֲצֵי אָרֶץ; הַבֹּנִים חֳרָבוֹת לָמוֹ.
im-melakhim veyo'atzei aretz habonim khoravot lamo.
With kings and counsellors of the earth, who built up waste places for themselves;
15.
אוֹ עִם-שָׂרִים, זָהָב לָהֶם; הַמְמַלְאִים בָּתֵּיהֶם כָּסֶף.
o im-sarim, zahav lahem; hamamle'im batteihem kasef.
Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver;
16.
אוֹ כְנֵפֶל טָמוּן, לֹא אֶהְיֶה; כְּעֹלְלִים, לֹא-רָאוּ אוֹר.
o khnefel tamun, lo ehyeh; ke'olelim, lo-ra'u or.
Or as a hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants that never saw light.
17.
שָׁם רְשָׁעִים, חָדְלוּ רֹגֶז; וְשָׁם יָנוּחוּ, יְגִיעֵי כֹחַ.
sham resha'im, khadlu rogez; vesham yanukhu, yegi'ei koakh.
There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary are at rest.
18.
יַחַד, אֲסִירִים שַׁאֲנָנוּ; לֹא שָׁמְעוּ, קוֹל נֹגֵשׂ.
yakhad, asirim sha'ananu; lo shame'u, kol noges.
There the prisoners are at ease together; they hear not the voice of the taskmaster.
19.
קָטֹן וְגָדוֹל, שָׁם הוּא; וְעֶבֶד, חָפְשִׁי מֵאֲדֹנָיו.
qaton vegadol, sham hu; ve'eved, khafshi me'adonav.
The small and great are there alike; and the servant is free from his master.
20.
לָמָּה יִתֵּן לְעָמֵל אוֹר; וְחַיִּים, לְמָרֵי נָפֶשׁ.
lammah yitten le'amel or; vechayim, lemarei nafesh.
Wherewith is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul--
21.
הַמְחַכִּים לַמָּוֶת וְאֵינֶנּוּ; וַיַּחְפְּרֻהוּ, מִמַּטְמוֹנִים.
hamchakim lammavet ve'enennu; vayachperuhu, mimmatmonim.
Who long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;
22.
הַשְּׂמֵחִים אֱלֵי-גִיל-- יָשִׂישׂוּ, כִּי יִמְצְאוּ-קָבֶר.
hassemechim elei-gil-- yasishu, ki yimtze'u-kaver.
Who rejoice unto exultation, and are glad, when they can find the grave?--
23.
לְגֶבֶר, אֲשֶׁר-דַּרְכּוֹ נִסְתָּרָה; וַיָּסֶךְ אֱלוֹהַּ בַּעֲדוֹ.
le'gever, asher-darko nistarah; vayasekh eloah ba'ado.
To a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?
24.
כִּי-לִפְנֵי לַחְמִי, אַנְחָתִי תָבֹא; וַיִּתְּכוּ כַמַּיִם, שַׁאֲגֹתָי.
ki-lifnei lakhmi, anhati tavo; vayitekhu khamayim, sha'agotai.
For my sighing cometh instead of my food, and my roarings are poured out like water.
25.
כִּי פַחַד פָּחַדְתִּי, וַיֶּאֱתָיֵנִי; וַאֲשֶׁר יָגֹרְתִּי, יָבֹא לִי.
ki fakhad pakhadti, vaye'etayeni; va'asher yagorti, yavo li.
For the thing which I did fear is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of hath overtaken me.
26.
לֹא שָׁלַוְתִּי, וְלֹא שָׁקַטְתִּי וְלֹא-נָחְתִּי; וַיָּבֹא רֹגֶז.
lo shalavti, velo shaqati velo-nakhti; vayavo rogez.
I was not at ease, neither was I quiet, neither had I rest; but trouble came.
