Eliphaz Says Job Presumes Much
1Maka Elifas, orang Teman, menjawab: 2"Apakah orang yang mempunyai hikmat menjawab dengan pengetahuan kosong, dan mengisi pikirannya dengan angin ? 3Apakah ia menegur dengan percakapan yang tidak berguna, dan dengan perkataan yang tidak berfaedah ? 4Lagipula engkau melenyapkan rasa takut dan mengurangi rasa hormat kepada Allah. 5Kesalahanmulah yang mengajar mulutmu, dan bahasa orang licik yang kaupilih. 6Mulutmu sendirilah yang mempersalahkan engkau, bukan aku; bibirmu sendiri menjadi saksi menentang engkau.
1Then Eliphaz the Temanite responded, 2“Should a wise man answer with windy knowledge,
And fill himself with the east wind? 3“Should he argue with useless talk,
Or with words which do not benefit? 4“Indeed, you do away with reverence,
And hinder meditation before God. 5“For your wrongdoing teaches your mouth,
And you choose the language of the cunning. 6“Your own mouth condemns you, and not I;
And your own lips testify against you.
And fill himself with the east wind? 3“Should he argue with useless talk,
Or with words which do not benefit? 4“Indeed, you do away with reverence,
And hinder meditation before God. 5“For your wrongdoing teaches your mouth,
And you choose the language of the cunning. 6“Your own mouth condemns you, and not I;
And your own lips testify against you.
7Apakah engkau dilahirkan sebagai manusia yang pertama, atau dijadikan lebih dahulu dari pada bukit-bukit ? 8Apakah engkau turut mendengarkan di dalam musyawarah Allah dan meraih hikmat bagi dirimu? 9Apakah yang kauketahui, yang tidak kami ketahui ? Apakah yang kaumengerti, yang tidak terang bagi kami ? 10Di antara kami juga ada orang yang beruban dan yang lanjut umurnya, yang lebih tua umurnya dari pada ayahmu. 11Kurangkah artinya bagimu penghiburan Allah, dan perkataan yang dengan lemah lembut ditujukan kepadamu ? 12Mengapa engkau dihanyutkan oleh perasaan hatimu dan mengapa matamu menyala-nyala, 13sehingga engkau memalingkan hatimu menentang Allah, dan mulutmu mengeluarkan perkataan serupa itu? 14Masakan manusia bersih, masakan benar yang lahir dari perempuan ? 15Sesungguhnya, para suci-Nya tidak dipercayai-Nya, seluruh langitpun tidak bersih pada pandangan-Nya; 16lebih-lebih lagi orang yang keji dan bejat, yang menghirup kecurangan seperti air.
7“Were you the first person to be born,
Or were you brought forth before the hills? 8“Do you hear the secret discussion of God,
And limit wisdom to yourself? 9“What do you know that we do not know?
What do you understand that we do not? 10“Both the gray-haired and the aged are among us,
Older than your father. 11“Are the consolations of God too little for you,
Or the word spoken gently to you? 12“Why does your heart take you away?
And why do your eyes wink, 13That you can turn your spirit against God
And produce such words from your mouth? 14“What is man, that he would be pure,
Or he who is born of a woman, that he would be righteous? 15“Behold, He has no trust in His holy ones,
And the heavens are not pure in His sight; 16How much less one who is detestable and corrupt:
A person who drinks malice like water!

What Eliphaz Has Seen of Life
17Aku hendak menerangkan sesuatu kepadamu, dengarkanlah aku, dan apa yang telah kulihat, hendak kuceritakan, 18yakni apa yang diberitakan oleh orang yang mempunyai hikmat, yang nenek moyang mereka tidak sembunyikan, 19ketika hanya kepada mereka negeri itu diberikan, dan tidak ada seorang asingpun masuk ke tengah-tengah mereka. 20Orang fasik menggeletar sepanjang hidupnya, demikian juga orang lalim selama tahun-tahun yang disediakan baginya. 21Bunyi yang dahsyat sampai ke telinganya, pada masa damai ia didatangi perusak. 22Ia tidak percaya, bahwa ia akan kembali dari kegelapan: ia sudah ditentukan untuk dimakan pedang. 23Ia mengembara untuk mencari makan, entah ke mana. Ia tahu, bahwa hari kegelapan siap menantikan dia. 24Ia ditakutkan oleh kesesakan dan kesempitan, yang menggagahinya laksana raja yang siap menyergap. 25Karena ia telah mengedangkan tangannya melawan Allah dan berani menantang Yang Mahakuasa; 26dengan bertegang leher ia berlari-lari menghadapi Dia, dengan perisainya yang berlapis tebal. 27Mukanya telah ditutupinya dengan lemak, dan lapisan lemak dikenakannya pada pinggangnya; 28ia menetap di kota-kota yang telah hancur, di rumah-rumah yang tidak dapat didiami orang, yang ditentukan untuk tetap menjadi reruntuhan. 29Ia takkan menjadi kaya dan hartanya tidak kekal, serta miliknyapun tidak bertambah-tambah di bumi. 30Ia tidak akan luput dari kegelapan, tunasnya akan dilayukan oleh nyala api, dan ia akan dilenyapkan oleh nafas mulut-Nya. 31Janganlah ia percaya kepada kesia-siaan, akan tertipulah ia, karena kesia-siaan akan menjadi ganjarannya. 32Sebelum genap masanya, ajalnya akan sampai; dan rantingnyapun tidak akan menghijau. 33Ia seperti pohon anggur yang gugur buahnya dan seperti pohon zaitun yang jatuh bunganya. 34Karena kawanan orang-orang fasik tidak berhasil, dan api memakan habis kemah-kemah orang yang makan suap. 35Mereka menghamilkan bencana dan melahirkan kejahatan, dan tipu daya dikandung hati mereka."
17“I will tell you, listen to me;
And what I have seen I will also declare; 18What wise people have told,
And have not concealed from their fathers, 19To whom alone the land was given,
And no stranger passed among them. 20“The wicked person writhes in pain all his days,
And the years reserved for the ruthless are numbered. 21“Sounds of terror are in his ears;
While he is at peace the destroyer comes upon him. 22“He does not believe that he will return from darkness,
And he is destined for the sword. 23“He wanders about for food, saying, ‘Where is it?’
He knows that a day of darkness is at hand. 24“Distress and anguish terrify him,
They overpower him like a king ready for the attack, 25Because he has reached out with his hand against God,
And is arrogant toward the Almighty. 26“He rushes headlong at Him
With his massive shield. 27“For he has covered his face with his fat,
And put fat on his waist. 28“He has lived in desolate cities,
In houses no one would inhabit,
Which are destined to become ruins. 29“He will not become rich, nor will his wealth endure;
And his property will not stretch out on the earth. 30“He will not escape from darkness;
The flame will dry up his shoot,
And he will go away by the breath of His mouth. 31“Let him not trust in emptiness, deceiving himself;
For his reward will be emptiness. 32“It will be accomplished before his time,
And his palm branch will not be green. 33“He will drop off his unripe grape like the vine,
And will cast off his flower like the olive tree. 34“For the company of the godless is barren,
And fire consumes the tents of the corrupt. 35“They conceive harm and give birth to wrongdoing,
And their mind prepares deception.”
