Job 6:14-30
English Standard Version
Job 6:14-30
English Standard Version
14 “He who (A)withholds[a] kindness from a (B)friend
forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
15 My (C)brothers are (D)treacherous as a torrent-bed,
as torrential (E)streams that pass away,
16 which are dark with ice,
and where the snow hides itself.
17 When they melt, they disappear;
when it is hot, they vanish from their place.
18 The caravans turn aside from their course;
they go up into (F)the waste and perish.
19 The caravans of (G)Tema look,
the travelers of (H)Sheba hope.
20 They are (I)ashamed because they were confident;
they come there and are (J)disappointed.
21 For you have now become nothing;
you see my calamity and are afraid.
22 Have I said, ‘Make me a gift’?
Or, ‘From your wealth offer a bribe for me’?
23 Or, ‘Deliver me from the adversary's hand’?
Or, ‘Redeem me from the hand of (K)the ruthless’?
24 “Teach me, and I will be silent;
make me understand how I have gone astray.
25 How forceful are upright words!
But what does reproof from you reprove?
26 Do you think that you can reprove words,
when the speech of a despairing man is (L)wind?
27 You would even (M)cast lots over the fatherless,
and bargain over your friend.
28 “But now, be pleased to look at me,
for I will not lie to your face.
29 (N)Please turn; let no injustice be done.
Turn now; my vindication is at stake.
30 Is there any injustice on my tongue?
Cannot my palate discern the cause of calamity?

GOD’S WORD Translation
You Have Not Treated Me Like True Friends
14 “A friend should treat a troubled person kindly,
even if he abandons the fear of the Almighty.
15 My brothers have been as deceptive as seasonal rivers,
like the seasonal riverbeds that flood.
16 They are dark with ice.
They are hidden by snow.
17 They vanish during a scorching summer.
In the heat their riverbeds dry up.
18 They change their course.
They go into a wasteland and disappear.
19 Caravans from Tema look for them.
Travelers from Sheba search for them.
20 They are ashamed because they relied on the streams.
Arriving there, they are disappointed.
21 “So you are as unreliable to me ⌞as they are⌟.
You see something terrifying, and you are afraid.
22 Did I ever say, ‘Give me a gift,’
or ‘Offer me a bribe from your wealth,’
23 or ‘Rescue me from an enemy,’
or ‘Ransom me from a tyrant’?
24 Teach me, and I’ll be silent.
Show me where I’ve been wrong.
25 How painful an honest discussion can be!
In correcting me, you correct yourselves!
26 Do you think my words need correction?
Do you think they’re what a desperate person says to the wind?
27 Would you also throw dice for an orphan?
Would you buy and sell your friend?
28 “But now, if you’re willing, look at me.
I won’t lie to your face.
29 Please change your mind.
Don’t permit any injustice.
Change your mind because I am still right about this!
30 Is there injustice on my tongue,
or is my mouth unable to tell the difference between right and wrong?

Reina-Valera 1960
14 El atribulado es consolado por su compañero;
Aun aquel que abandona el temor del Omnipotente.
15 Pero mis hermanos me traicionaron como un torrente;
Pasan como corrientes impetuosas
16 Que están escondidas por la helada,
Y encubiertas por la nieve;
17 Que al tiempo del calor son deshechas,
Y al calentarse, desaparecen de su lugar;
18 Se apartan de la senda de su rumbo,
Van menguando, y se pierden.
19 Miraron los caminantes de Temán,
Los caminantes de Sabá esperaron en ellas;
20 Pero fueron avergonzados por su esperanza;
Porque vinieron hasta ellas, y se hallaron confusos.
21 Ahora ciertamente como ellas sois vosotros;
Pues habéis visto el tormento, y teméis.
22 ¿Os he dicho yo: Traedme,
Y pagad por mí de vuestra hacienda;
23 Libradme de la mano del opresor,
Y redimidme del poder de los violentos?
24 Enseñadme, y yo callaré;
Hacedme entender en qué he errado.
25 ¡Cuán eficaces son las palabras rectas!
Pero ¿qué reprende la censura vuestra?
26 ¿Pensáis censurar palabras,
Y los discursos de un desesperado, que son como el viento?
27 También os arrojáis sobre el huérfano,
Y caváis un hoyo para vuestro amigo.
28 Ahora, pues, si queréis, miradme,
Y ved si digo mentira delante de vosotros.
29 Volved ahora, y no haya iniquidad;
Volved aún a considerar mi justicia en esto.
30 ¿Hay iniquidad en mi lengua?
¿Acaso no puede mi paladar discernir las cosas inicuas?
Иов 6:14-30
Russian Synodal Version
Иов 6:14-30
Russian Synodal Version
14 К страждущему должно быть сожаление от друга его, если только он не оставил страха к Вседержителю.
15 Но братья мои неверны, как поток, как быстро текущие ручьи,
16 которые черны от льда и в которых скрывается снег.
17 Когда становится тепло, они умаляются, а во время жары исчезают с мест своих.
18 Уклоняют они направление путей своих, заходят в пустыню и теряются;
19 смотрят на них дороги Фемайские, надеются на них пути Савейские,
20 но остаются пристыженными в своей надежде; приходят туда и от стыда краснеют.
21 Так и вы теперь ничто: увидели страшное и испугались.
22 Говорил ли я: дайте мне, или от достатка вашего заплатите за меня;
23 и избавьте меня от руки врага, и от руки мучителей выкупите меня?
24 Научите меня, и я замолчу; укажите, в чем я погрешил.
25 Как сильны слова правды! Но что доказывают обличения ваши?
26 Вы придумываете речи для обличения? На ветер пускаете слова ваши.
27 Вы нападаете на сироту и роете яму другу вашему.
28 Но прошу вас, взгляните на меня; буду ли я говорить ложь пред лицем вашим?
29 Пересмотрите, есть ли неправда? пересмотрите, --правда моя.
30 Есть ли на языке моем неправда? Неужели гортань моя не может различить горечи?

John 3:22-4:6
English Standard Version
John the Baptist Exalts Christ
22 After this Jesus and his disciples went into the Judean countryside, and he remained there with them and (A)was baptizing. 23 John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because water was plentiful there, and people were coming and being baptized 24 (for (B)John had not yet been put in prison).
25 Now a discussion arose between some of John's disciples and a Jew over (C)purification. 26 And they came to John and said to him, (D)“Rabbi, he who was with you across the Jordan, (E)to whom you bore witness—look, he is baptizing, and (F)all are going to him.” 27 John answered, (G)“A person cannot receive even one thing (H)unless it is given him (I)from heaven. 28 You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, (J)‘I am not the Christ, but (K)I have been sent before him.’ 29 (L)The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. (M)The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, (N)rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete. 30 (O)He must increase, but I must decrease.”[a]
31 (P)He who comes from above (Q)is above all. He who is of the earth belongs to the earth and (R)speaks in an earthly way. (S)He who comes from heaven (T)is above all. 32 (U)He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, (V)yet no one receives his testimony. 33 Whoever receives his testimony (W)sets his seal to this, (X)that God is true. 34 For he whom (Y)God has sent utters the words of God, for he gives the Spirit (Z)without measure. 35 (AA)The Father loves the Son and (AB)has given all things into his hand. 36 (AC)Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; (AD)whoever does not obey the Son shall not (AE)see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.
Jesus and the Woman of Samaria
4 Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and (AF)baptizing more disciples than John 2 (although Jesus himself did not baptize, but only his disciples), 3 he left Judea and departed (AG)again for Galilee. 4 (AH)And he had to pass through Samaria. 5 So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the field (AI)that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. 6 Jacob's well was there; so Jesus, (AJ)wearied as he was from his journey, was sitting beside the well. It was about the sixth hour.[b]

John the Baptizer Talks about Christ
22 Later, Jesus and his disciples went to the Judean countryside, where he spent some time with them and baptized people. 23 John was baptizing in Aenon, near Salim. Water was plentiful there. (People came to John to be baptized, 24 since John had not yet been put in prison.)
25 Some of John’s disciples had an argument with a Jew about purification ceremonies. 26 So they went to John and asked him, “Rabbi, do you remember the man you spoke so favorably about when he was with you on the other side of the Jordan River? Well, he’s baptizing, and everyone is going to him!”
27 John answered, “People can’t receive anything unless it has been given to them from heaven. 28 You are witnesses that I said, ‘I’m not the Messiah, but I’ve been sent ahead of him.’
29 “The groom is the person to whom the bride belongs. The best man, who stands and listens to him, is overjoyed when the groom speaks. This is the joy that I feel. 30 He must increase in importance, while I must decrease in importance.
31 “The person who comes from above is superior to everyone. I, a person from the earth, know nothing but what is on earth, and that’s all I can talk about. The person who comes from heaven is superior to everyone 32 and tells what he has seen and heard. Yet, no one accepts what he says. 33 I have accepted what that person said, and I have affirmed that God is truthful. 34 The man whom God has sent speaks God’s message. After all, God gives him the Spirit without limit. 35 The Father loves his Son and has put everything in his power. 36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life. Instead, he will see God’s constant anger.”
A Samaritan Woman Meets Jesus at a Well
4 Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard that he was making and baptizing more disciples than John. 2 (Actually, Jesus was not baptizing people. His disciples were.) 3 So he left the Judean countryside and went back to Galilee.
4 Jesus had to go through Samaria. 5 He arrived at a city in Samaria called Sychar. Sychar was near the piece of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. 6 Jacob’s Well was there. Jesus sat down by the well because he was tired from traveling. The time was about noon.

El amigo del esposo
22 Después de esto, vino Jesús con sus discípulos a la tierra de Judea, y estuvo allí con ellos, y bautizaba. 23 Juan bautizaba también en Enón, junto a Salim, porque había allí muchas aguas; y venían, y eran bautizados. 24 Porque Juan no había sido aún encarcelado.(A)
25 Entonces hubo discusión entre los discípulos de Juan y los judíos acerca de la purificación. 26 Y vinieron a Juan y le dijeron: Rabí, mira que el que estaba contigo al otro lado del Jordán, de quien tú diste testimonio, bautiza, y todos vienen a él. 27 Respondió Juan y dijo: No puede el hombre recibir nada, si no le fuere dado del cielo. 28 Vosotros mismos me sois testigos de que dije: Yo no soy el Cristo,(B) sino que soy enviado delante de él. 29 El que tiene la esposa, es el esposo; mas el amigo del esposo, que está a su lado y le oye, se goza grandemente de la voz del esposo; así pues, este mi gozo está cumplido. 30 Es necesario que él crezca, pero que yo mengüe.
El que viene de arriba
31 El que de arriba viene, es sobre todos; el que es de la tierra, es terrenal, y cosas terrenales habla; el que viene del cielo, es sobre todos. 32 Y lo que vio y oyó, esto testifica; y nadie recibe su testimonio. 33 El que recibe su testimonio, este atestigua que Dios es veraz. 34 Porque el que Dios envió, las palabras de Dios habla; pues Dios no da el Espíritu por medida. 35 El Padre ama al Hijo, y todas las cosas ha entregado en su mano.(C)
36 El que cree en el Hijo tiene vida eterna; pero el que rehúsa creer en el Hijo no verá la vida, sino que la ira de Dios está sobre él.
Jesús y la mujer samaritana
4 Cuando, pues, el Señor entendió que los fariseos habían oído decir: Jesús hace y bautiza más discípulos que Juan 2 (aunque Jesús no bautizaba, sino sus discípulos), 3 salió de Judea, y se fue otra vez a Galilea. 4 Y le era necesario pasar por Samaria. 5 Vino, pues, a una ciudad de Samaria llamada Sicar, junto a la heredad que Jacob dio a su hijo José.(D) 6 Y estaba allí el pozo de Jacob. Entonces Jesús, cansado del camino, se sentó así junto al pozo. Era como la hora sexta.

От Иоанна 3:22-4:6
Russian Synodal Version
22 После сего пришел Иисус с учениками Своими в землю Иудейскую и там жил с ними и крестил.
23 А Иоанн также крестил в Еноне, близ Салима, потому что там было много воды; и приходили [туда] и крестились,
24 ибо Иоанн еще не был заключен в темницу.
25 Тогда у Иоанновых учеников произошел спор с Иудеями об очищении.
26 И пришли к Иоанну и сказали ему: равви! Тот, Который был с тобою при Иордане и о Котором ты свидетельствовал, вот Он крестит, и все идут к Нему.
27 Иоанн сказал в ответ: не может человек ничего принимать [на] [себя], если не будет дано ему с неба.
28 Вы сами мне свидетели в том, что я сказал: не я Христос, но я послан пред Ним.
29 Имеющий невесту есть жених, а друг жениха, стоящий и внимающий ему, радостью радуется, слыша голос жениха. Сия-то радость моя исполнилась.
30 Ему должно расти, а мне умаляться.
31 Приходящий свыше и есть выше всех; а сущий от земли земной и есть и говорит, как сущий от земли; Приходящий с небес есть выше всех,
32 и что Он видел и слышал, о том и свидетельствует; и никто не принимает свидетельства Его.
33 Принявший Его свидетельство сим запечатлел, что Бог истинен,
34 ибо Тот, Которого послал Бог, говорит слова Божии; ибо не мерою дает Бог Духа.
35 Отец любит Сына и все дал в руку Его.
36 Верующий в Сына имеет жизнь вечную, а не верующий в Сына не увидит жизни, но гнев Божий пребывает на нем.
4 Когда же узнал Иисус о [дошедшем до] фарисеев слухе, что Он более приобретает учеников и крестит, нежели Иоанн, --
2 хотя Сам Иисус не крестил, а ученики Его, --
3 то оставил Иудею и пошел опять в Галилею.
4 Надлежало же Ему проходить через Самарию.
5 Итак приходит Он в город Самарийский, называемый Сихарь, близ участка земли, данного Иаковом сыну своему Иосифу.
6 Там был колодезь Иаковлев. Иисус, утрудившись от пути, сел у колодезя. Было около шестого часа.
