Job 26
1 And Job answers and says:
Job progovori i reče:
2 “How you have helped the powerless, Saved an arm not strong!
“Kako dobro znadeš pomoći nemoćnom i mišicu iznemoglu poduprijeti!
3 How you have given counsel to the unwise, And made known wise plans in abundance.
Kako dobar savjet daješ neukome; baš si preveliku mudrost pokazao.
4 With whom have you declared words? And whose breath came forth from you?
Kome li si ove uputio riječi i koji duh je iz tebe govorio?”
5 The Rephaim are formed, Also their inhabitants beneath the waters.
Pred Bogom mrtvi pod zemljom dolje strepe, vode morske dršću i nemani njine.
Pred njegovim okom otkriven zja Šeol i bezdan smrti nema vela na sebi. (Sheol h7585)
7 Stretching out the north over desolation, Hanging the earth on nothing,
On povrh praznine Sjever razapinje, on drži zemlju o ništa obješenu.
8 Binding up the waters in His thick clouds, And the cloud is not burst under them.
On zatvara vodu u svoje oblake, a oblaci se pod njome ne prodiru.
9 Taking hold of the face of the throne, Spreading His cloud over it.
On zastire puno lice mjesečevo razastirući svoj oblak preko njega.
10 He has placed a limit on the waters, To the boundary of light with darkness.
On je na vodi označio kružnicu gdje prestaje svjetlost i tmine počinju.
11 Pillars of the heavens tremble, And they wonder because of His rebuke.
Svodu se nebeskom potresu stupovi i premru od straha kada on zaprijeti.
12 By His power He has quieted the sea, And by His understanding struck the proud.
Svojom je snagom on ukrotio more i neman Rahaba smrvio mudrošću.
13 He beautified the heavens by His Spirit, His hand has formed the fleeing serpent.
Nebesa je svojim razbistrio dahom, a ruka mu je brzu zmiju probola.
14 Behold, these [are] the borders of His way, and how little a matter is heard of Him, and who understands the thunder of His might?”
Sve to samo djelić je djela njegovih, od kojih tek slabu jeku mi čujemo. Ali tko će shvatit' grom njegove moći?”
