וְֽיָדַעְתָּ כִּי־רַב זַרְעֶךָ וְצֶאֱצָאֶיךָ כְּעֵשֶׂב הָאָֽרֶץ
Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, And thine offspring as the grass of the earth.
תָּבוֹא בְכֶלַח אֱלֵי־קָבֶר כַּעֲלוֹת גָּדִישׁ בְּעִתּֽוֹ
Thou shalt come to thy grave in a ripe age, Like as a shock of corn cometh in in its season.
הִנֵּה־זֹאת חֲקַרְנוּהָ כֶּֽן־הִיא שְׁמָעֶנָּה וְאַתָּה דַֽע־לָֽךְ
Lo this, we have searched it, So it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good.
וַיַּעַן אִיּוֹב וַיֹּאמַֽר
Then Job answered and said:
לוּ שָׁקוֹל יִשָּׁקֵל כַּעְשִׂי והיתי בְּֽמֹאזְנַיִם יִשְׂאוּ־יָֽחַד
Oh that my vexation were but weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances altogether!
