< Job 26 >

1 Bvt Iob answered, and sayde,
Toda Job je odgovoril in rekel:
2 Whom helpest thou? him that hath no power? sauest thou the arme that hath no strength?
»Kako si pomagal tistemu, ki je brez moči? Kako rešuješ laket, ki nima moči?
3 Whome counsellest thou? him that hath no wisedome? thou shewest right well as the thing is.
Kako si svetoval tistemu, ki nima modrosti? Kako si obilno oznanil stvar, kakor je ta?
4 To whom doest thou declare these words? or whose spirit commeth out of thee?
Komu si izrekal besede? Čigav duh je prišel od tebe?
5 The dead things are formed vnder the waters, and neere vnto them.
Mrtve stvari so oblikovane pod vodami in njihovi prebivalci.
6 The graue is naked before him, and there is no couering for destruction. (Sheol h7585)
Pekel je nag pred njim in uničenje nima pokrivala. (Sheol h7585)
7 He stretcheth out the North ouer the emptie place, and hangeth the earth vpon nothing.
Sever izteguje nad praznim krajem in zemljo obeša na nič.
8 He bindeth the waters in his cloudes, and the cloude is not broken vnder them.
Vode povezuje v svoje debele oblake in pod njimi se oblak ne pretrga.
9 He holdeth backe the face of his throne: and spreadeth his cloude vpon it.
Zadržuje obličje svojega prestola in svoj oblak razprostira nad njim.
10 He hath set bounds about the waters, vntil the day and night come to an ende.
Vode je obdal z vezmi, dokler dan in noč ne prideta do konca.
11 The pillars of heauen tremble and quake at his reproofe.
Stebri nebes trepetajo in so osupli ob njegovem opominu.
12 The sea is calme by his power, and by his vnderstanding he smiteth the pride thereof.
On s svojo močjo razdeljuje morje in s svojim razumevanjem udarja po ponosnih.
13 His Spirite hath garnished the heauens, and his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
S svojim duhom je okrasil nebo; njegova roka je oblikovala sprijeno kačo.
14 Loe, these are part of his wayes: but how litle a portion heare we of him? and who can vnderstand his fearefull power?
Glej! To so delčki njegovih poti. Toda kako majhen delček je slišati o njem? Toda kdo lahko razume grom njegove moči?«
