Giobbe 1	Job 1
Giobbe 1:1 C’era nel paese di Uz un uomo che si chiamava Giobbe. Quest’uomo era integro e retto; temeva Iddio e fuggiva il male.	Job 1:1 There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job. He was without sin and upright, fearing God and keeping himself far from evil.
Giobbe 1:2 Gli erano nati sette figliuoli e tre figliuole;	Job 1:2 And he had seven sons and three daughters.
Giobbe 1:3 possedeva settemila pecore, tremila cammelli, cinquecento paia di bovi, cinquecento asine e una servitù molto numerosa. E quest’uomo era il più grande di tutti gli Orientali.	Job 1:3 And of cattle he had seven thousand sheep and goats, and three thousand camels, and a thousand oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a very great number of servants. And the man was greater than any of the sons of the east.
Giobbe 1:4 I suoi figliuoli solevano andare gli uni dagli altri e darsi un convito, ciascuno nel suo giorno: e mandavano a chiamare le loro tre sorelle perché venissero a mangiare e a bere con loro.	Job 1:4 His sons regularly went to one another's houses, and every one on his day gave a feast: and at these times they sent for their three sisters to take part in their feasts with them.
Giobbe 1:5 E quando la serie dei giorni di convito era finita Giobbe li faceva venire per purificarli; si levava di buon mattino, e offriva un olocausto per ciascun d’essi, perché diceva: "Può darsi che i miei figliuoli abbian peccato ed abbiano rinnegato Iddio in cuor loro". E Giobbe faceva sempre così.	Job 1:5 And at the end of their days of feasting, Job sent and made them clean, getting up early in the morning and offering burned offerings for them all. For, Job said, It may be that my sons have done wrong and said evil of God in their hearts. And Job did this whenever the feasts came round.
Giobbe 1:6 Or accadde un giorno, che i figliuoli di Dio vennero a presentarsi davanti all’Eterno, e Satana venne anch’egli in mezzo a loro.	Job 1:6 And there was a day when the sons of the gods came together before the Lord, and the Satan came with them.
Giobbe 1:7 E l’Eterno disse a Satana: "Donde vieni?" E Satana rispose all’Eterno: "Dal percorrere la terra e dal passeggiare per essa".	Job 1:7 And the Lord said to the Satan, Where do you come from? And the Satan said in answer, From wandering this way and that on the earth, and walking about on it.
Giobbe 1:8 E l’Eterno disse a Satana: "Hai tu notato il mio servo Giobbe? Non ce n’è un altro sulla terra che come lui sia integro, retto, tema Iddio e fugga il male".	Job 1:8 And the Lord said to the Satan, Have you taken note of my servant Job, for there is no one like him on the earth, a man without sin and upright, fearing God and keeping himself far from evil?
Giobbe 1:9 E Satana rispose all’Eterno: "E’ egli forse per nulla che Giobbe teme Iddio?	Job 1:9 And the Satan said in answer to the Lord, Is it for nothing that Job is a god-fearing man?
Giobbe 1:10 Non l’hai tu circondato d’un riparo, lui, la sua casa, e tutto quel che possiede? Tu hai benedetto l’opera delle e mani, e il suo bestiame ricopre tutto il paese.	Job 1:10 Have you yourself not put a wall round him and his house and all he has on every side, blessing the work of his hands, and increasing his cattle in the land?
Giobbe 1:11 Ma stendi un po’ la tua mano, tocca quanto egli possiede, e vedrai se non ti rinnega in faccia".	Job 1:11 But now, put out your hand against all he has, and he will be cursing you to your face.
Giobbe 1:12 E l’Eterno disse a Satana: "Ebbene! tutto quello che possiede e in tuo potere; soltanto, non stender la mano sulla sua persona". E Satana si ritirò dalla presenza dell’Eterno.	Job 1:12 And the Lord said to the Satan, See, I give all he has into your hands, only do not put a finger on the man himself. And the Satan went out from before the Lord.
Giobbe 1:13 Or accadde che un giorno, mentre suoi figliuoli e le sue figliuole mangiavano e bevevano del vino in casa del loro fratello maggiore, giunse a Giobbe un messaggero a dirgli:	Job 1:13 And there was a day when his sons and daughters were feasting in the house of their oldest brother,
Giobbe 1:14 "I buoi stavano arando e le asine pascevano lì appresso,	Job 1:14 And a man came to Job, and said, The oxen were ploughing, and the asses were taking their food by their side:
Giobbe 1:15 quand’ecco i Sabei son piombati loro addosso e li hanno portati via; hanno passato a fil di spada servitori, e io solo son potuto scampare per venire a dirtelo".	Job 1:15 And the men of Sheba came against them and took them away, putting the young men to the sword, and I was the only one who got away safe to give you the news.
Giobbe 1:16 Quello parlava ancora, quando ne giunse un altro a dire: "Il fuoco di Dio e caduto dal cielo, ha colpito le pecore e i servitori, e li ha divorati; e io solo son potuto scampare per venire a dirtelo".	Job 1:16 And this one was still talking when another came, and said, The fire of God came down from heaven, burning up the sheep and the goats and the young men completely, and I was the only one who got away safe to give you the news.
Giobbe 1:17 Quello parlava ancora, quando ne giunse un altro a dire: "I Caldei hanno formato tre bande, si son gettati sui cammelli e li han portati via; hanno passato a fil di spada i servitori, e io solo son potuto scampare per venire a dirtelo".	Job 1:17 And this one was still talking when another came, and said, The Chaldaeans made themselves into three bands, and came down on the camels and took them away, putting the young men to the sword, and I was the only one who got away safe to give you the news.
Giobbe 1:18 Quello parlava ancora, quando ne giunse un altro a dire: "I tuoi figliuoli e le tue figliuole mangiavano e bevevano del vino in casa del loro fratello maggiore;	Job 1:18 And this one was still talking when another came, and said, Your sons and your daughters were feasting together in their oldest brother's house,
Giobbe 1:19 ed ecco che un gran vento, venuto dall’altra parte del deserto, ha investito i quattro canti della casa, ch’è caduta sui giovani; ed essi sono morti; e io solo son potuto scampare per venire a dirtelo".	Job 1:19 When a great wind came rushing from the waste land against the four sides of the house, and it came down on the young men, and they are dead; and I was the only one who got away safe to give you the news.
Giobbe 1:20 Allora Giobbe si alzò e si stracciò il mantello e si rase il capo e si prostrò a terra e adorò e disse:	Job 1:20 Then Job got up, and after parting his clothing and cutting off his hair, he went down on his face to the earth, and gave worship, and said,
Giobbe 1:21 "Nudo sono uscito dal seno di mia madre, e nudo tornerò in seno della terra; l’Eterno ha dato, l’Eterno ha tolto; sia benedetto il nome dell’Eterno".	Job 1:21 With nothing I came out of my mother's body, and with nothing I will go back there; the Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; let the Lord's name be praised.
Giobbe 1:22 In tutto questo Giobbe non peccò e non attribuì a Dio nulla di mal fatto.	Job 1:22 In all this Job did no sin, and did not say that God's acts were foolish.
