3 Imao je sedam tisuća ovaca, tri tisuće deva, pet stotina jarmova goveda, pet stotina magarica i veoma mnogo služinčadi. Čovjek taj bijaše najugledniji među svim istočnjacima.
And it was livestock his seven thousand sheep and three thousand camels and five hundred pair[s] of ox[en] and five hundred female donkeys and service much very and he was the man that great more than all [the] people of [the] east.
4 Sinovi su njegovi običavali naizmjence priređivati gozbe kod jednoga od njih, svaki u svoj dan, te su pozivali svoje tri sestre da jedu i piju s njima.
And they went sons his and they made a feast [the] house of each one day his and they sent and they invited [the] three (sisters their *Q(k)*) to eat and to drink with them.
5 A kad bi se izredali s gozbama, Job bi ih pozvao na očišćenje. Uranio bi izjutra i prinio paljenice za svakog od njih; mislio je: “Tko zna nisu li mi sinovi griješili i u srcu Boga hulili!” Tako je Job svagda činio.
And it was that they had gone round [the] days of the feast and he sent Job and he sanctified them and he rose early in the morning and he offered up burnt offerings [the] number of all of them for he said Job perhaps they have sinned children my and they have blessed God in heart their thus he did Job all the days.
6 Jednoga dana dođu sinovi Božji da stanu pred Jahvu, a među njima pristupi i Satan.
And it was the day and they came [the] sons of God to present themselves on Yahweh and he came also the adversary in midst of them.
7 Jahve tad upita Satana: “Odakle dolaziš?” - “Evo prođoh zemljom i obiđoh je”, odgovori on.
And he said Yahweh to the adversary from where? are you coming and he answered the adversary Yahweh and he said from roving about on the earth and from going about on it.
8 Nato će Jahve: “Nisi li zapazio slugu moga Joba? Njemu na zemlji nema ravna. Čovjek je to neporočan i pravedan, boji se Boga i kloni zla!”
And he said Yahweh to the adversary ¿ have you set heart your on servant my Job for there not [is] like him on the earth a man blameless and upright fearing God and [who] turns aside from evil.
9 A Satan odgovori Jahvi: “Zar se Job uzalud Boga boji?
And he answered the adversary Yahweh and he said ¿ in vain has he feared Job God.
10 Zar nisi ogradio njega, kuću mu i sav posjed njegov? Blagoslovio si djelo njegovih ruku, stoka mu se namnožila po zemlji.
¿ Not (you *Q(K)*) have you put a hedge behind him and behind house his and behind all that [belongs] to him from round about [the] work of hands his you have blessed and livestock his it has spread out in the land.
11 Ali pruži jednom ruku i dirni mu u dobra: u lice će te prokleti!”
And but stretch out please hand your and touch all that [belongs] to him if not on face your he will bless you.
12 “Neka ti bude! - reče Jahve Satanu. - Sa svime što ima radi što ti drago; samo ruku svoju na nj ne diži.” I Satan ode ispred lica Jahvina.
And he said Yahweh to the adversary there! all that [belongs] to him [is] in hand your only against him may not you stretch out hand your and he went out the adversary from with [the] presence of Yahweh.

And it was the day and sons his and daughters his [were] eating and drinking wine in [the] house of brother their the firstborn.
14 dođe glasnik k Jobu i reče: “Tvoji su volovi orali a magarice pokraj njih pasle,
And a messenger he came to Job and he said the ox[en] they were plowing and the female donkeys [were] grazing on hands their.
15 kad iznenada Sabejci navališe na njih i oteše ih, pobivši momke oštrim mačem. Jedini ja utekoh da ti ovo javim.”
And it fell Sabean[s] and it took them and the servants they struck to [the] mouth of [the] sword and I have escaped! only I to alone me to tell to you.
16 Dok je on još to govorio, dođe drugi i reče: “Oganj Božji udari s neba, spali tvoje ovce i pastire te ih proždrije. Jedini ja utekoh da ti javim.”
Still - this [one] [was] speaking and this [one] he came and he said [the] fire of God it fell from the heavens and it burned the sheep and the servants and it consumed them and I have escaped! only I to alone me to tell to you.
17 Dok je još govorio, dođe treći i reče: “Kaldejci navališe sa tri čete na tvoje deve i oteše ih, pobivši momke oštrim mačem. Jedini ja utekoh da ti javim.”
Still - this [one] [was] speaking and this [one] he came and he said [the] Chaldeans they formed - three companies and they made a raid on the camels and they took them and the servants they struck to [the] mouth of [the] sword and I have escaped! only I to alone me to tell to you.
18 Dok je ovaj još govorio, dođe četvrti i reče: “Tvoji su sinovi i kćeri jeli i pili vino u kući najstarijeg brata.
Until this [one] [was] speaking and this [one] he came and he said sons your and daughters your [were] eating and drinking wine in [the] house of brother their the firstborn.
19 I gle, vjetar se silan diže iz pustinje, udari na sva četiri ugla kuće, obori je na djecu te ona zaglaviše. Jedini ja utekoh da ti javim.”
And there! a wind great it came - from [the] other side of the wilderness and it touched [the] four [the] corners of the house and it fell on the youths and they died and I have escaped! only I to alone me to tell to you.
20 Tad ustade Job, razdrije haljinu na sebi, obrija glavu pa ničice pade na zemlju, pokloni se
And he arose Job and he tore robe his and he shaved head his and he fell [the] earth towards and he bowed down.
21 i reče: “Go iziđoh iz krila majčina, go ću se onamo i vratiti. Jahve dao, Jahve oduzeo! Blagoslovljeno ime Jahvino!”
And he said naked (I came out *Q(k)*) from [the] womb of mother my and naked I will return there towards Yahweh he gave and Yahweh he has taken may it be [the] name of Yahweh blessed.
22 Uza sve to, nije sagriješio Job niti je kakvu ludost protiv Boga izustio.
In all this not he sinned Job and not he ascribe unseemliness to God.
