Job 12
1 And he answered Job and he said.
Saa tog Job til Orde og svarede:
2 Truly that you [are the] people and with you it will die wisdom.
Ja, sandelig, I er de rette, med eder dør Visdommen ud!
3 Also [belongs] to me a heart - like you not [am] falling I more than you and with whom? [are] there not like these [things].
Ogsaa jeg har som I Forstand, staar ikke tilbage for eder, hvo kender vel ikke sligt?
4 A laughingstock to friend his - I am [one who] called to God and he answered him [is] a laughingstock a righteous [person] a blameless [person].
Til Latter for Venner er den, der raabte til Gud og fik Svar, den retfærdige er til Latter.
5 [belongs] to Disaster contempt to [the] thought of [one] at ease a push [belongs] to [those who] are sliding of foot.
I Ulykke falder de fromme, den sorgløse spotter Faren, hans Fod staar fast, mens Fristen varer.
6 They are at peace [the] tents - of destroyers and securiti [belong] to provokers of God to [those] whom he has brought God in hand his.
I Fred er Voldsmænds Telte, og trygge er de, der vækker Guds Vrede, den, der fører Gud i sin Haand.
7 And but ask please [the] animals so it may teach you and [the] bird[s] of the heavens so it may tell to you.
Spørg dog Kvæget, det skal lære dig, Himlens Fugle, de skal oplyse dig,
8 Or complain to the earth so it may teach you and they may recount to you [the] fish of the sea.
se til Jorden, den skal lære dig lad Havets Fisk fortælle dig det!
9 Who? not does it know among all these for [the] hand of Yahweh it has done this.
Hvem blandt dem alle ved vel ikke, at HERRENS Haand har skabt det;
10 [he] whom [is] in Hand his [the] life of every living [thing] and [the] breath of all flesh of humankind.
han holder alt levendes Sjæl i sin Haand, alt Menneskekødets Aand!
11 ¿ Not an ear words does it test and a palate food it tastes itself.
Prøver ej Øret Ord, og smager ej Ganen Maden?
12 [is] with Aged [people] wisdom and [is with] length of days understanding.
Er Alderdom eet med Visdom, Dagenes Række med Indsigt?
13 [are] with Him wisdom and might [belong] to him counsel and understanding.
Hos ham er der Visdom og Vælde, hos ham er der Raad og Indsigt.
14 There! he tears down and not it will be rebuilt he shuts on a person and not it will be opened.
Hvad han river ned, det bygges ej op, den, han lukker inde, kommer ej ud;
15 There! he holds back the waters so they may be dry and he lets loose them and they may devastate [the] earth.
han dæmmer for Vandet, og Tørke kommer, han slipper det løs, og det omvælter Jorden.
16 [are] with Him strength and sound wisdom [belong] to him [one who] goes astray and [one who] leads astray.
Hos ham er der Kraft og Fasthed; den, der farer og fører vild, er hans Værk.
17 [he is] leading away Counselors barefoot and judges he makes look foolish.
Raadsherrer fører han nøgne bort, og Dommere gør han til Taaber;
18 [the] correction of Kings he loosens and he bound a loincloth on loins their.
han løser, hvad Konger bandt, og binder dem Reb om Lænd;
19 [he is] leading away Priests barefoot and [people] long established he overturns.
Præster fører han nøgne bort og styrter ældgamle Slægter;
20 [he is] removing A lip of trusted [ones] and [the] discernment of elders he takes away.
han røver de dygtige Mælet og tager de gamles Sans;
21 [he is] pouring Contempt on noble [people] and [the] belt of strong people he loosens.
han udøser Haan over Fyrster og løser de stærkes Bælte;
22 [he is] revealing Unfathomable [things] from darkness and he brought out to the light deep darkness.
han drager det skjulte frem af Mørket og bringer Mulmet for Lyset,
23 [he is] making great the Nations and he destroyed them [he is] spreading out the nations and he led them.
gør Folkene store og lægger dem øde, udvider Folkeslags Grænser og fører dem atter bort;
24 [he is] removing [the] heart of [the] leaders of [the] people of The earth and he made wander them in a wasteland not a path.
han tager Jordens Høvdingers Vid og lader dem rave i vejløst Øde;
25 They grope darkness and not light and he made wander them like drunkard.
de famler i Mørke uden Lys og raver omkring som drukne.
