Job 21
1 and to answer Job and to say
Saa tog Job til Orde og svarede:
2 to hear: hear to hear: hear speech my and to be this consolation your
Hør dog, hør mine Ord, lad det være Trøsten, I giver!
3 to lift: bear me and I to speak: speak and after to speak: speak I to mock
Find jer nu i, at jeg taler, siden kan I jo haane!
4 I to/for man complaint my and if: surely no why? not be short spirit: temper my
Gælder min Klage Mennesker? Hvi skulde jeg ej være utaalmodig?
5 to turn to(wards) me and be desolate: appalled and to set: put hand upon lip
Vend jer til mig og stivn af Rædsel, læg Haand paa Mund!
6 and if to remember and to dismay and to grasp flesh my shuddering
Jeg gruer, naar jeg tænker derpaa, mit Legeme gribes af Skælven:
7 why? wicked to live to proceed also to prevail strength
De gudløse, hvorfor lever de, bliver gamle, ja vokser i Kraft?
8 seed: children their to establish: establish to/for face their with them and offspring their to/for eye their
Deres Æt har de blivende hos sig, deres Afkom for deres Øjne;
9 house: household their peace: well-being from dread and not tribe: staff god upon them
deres Huse er sikre mod Rædsler, Guds Svøbe rammer dem ikke;
10 cattle his to pass and not to abhor to escape heifer his and not be bereaved
ej springer deres Tyr forgæves, Koen kælver, den kaster ikke;
11 to send: depart like/as flock boy their and youth their to skip about [emph?]
de slipper deres Drenge ud som Faar, deres Børneflok boltrer sig ret;
12 to lift: bear like/as tambourine and lyre and to rejoice to/for voice: sound pipe
de synger til Pauke og Citer, er glade til Fløjtens Toner;
13 (to end: finish *Q(K)*) in/on/with good day their and in/on/with moment hell: Sheol to descend (Sheol h7585)
de lever deres Dage i Lykke og synker med Fred i Dødsriget, (Sheol h7585)
14 and to say to/for God to turn aside: depart from us and knowledge way: conduct your not to delight in
skønt de siger til Gud: »Gaa fra os, at kende dine Veje er ikke vor Lyst!
15 what? Almighty for to serve: minister him and what? to gain for to fall on in/on/with him
Den Almægtige? Hvad han? Skal vi tjene ham? Hvad Gavn at banke paa hos ham?«
16 look! not in/on/with hand their goodness their counsel wicked to remove from me
Er ej deres Lykke i deres Haand og gudløses Raad ham fjernt?
17 like/as what? lamp wicked to put out and to come (in): come upon them calamity their pain to divide in/on/with face: anger his
Naar gaar de gudløses Lampe ud og naar kommer Ulykken over dem? Naar deler han Loddet ud i sin Vrede,
18 to be like/as straw to/for face: before spirit: breath and like/as chaff to steal him whirlwind
saa de bliver som Straa for Vinden, som Avner, Storm fører bort?
19 god to treasure to/for son: child his evil: wickedness his to complete to(wards) him and to know
Gemmer Gud hans Ulykkeslod til hans Børn? Ham selv gengælde han, saa han mærker det,
20 to see: see (eye his *Q(K)*) ruin his and from rage Almighty to drink
lad ham selv faa sit Vanheld at se, den Almægtiges Vrede at drikke!
21 for what? pleasure his in/on/with house: household his after him and number month his to divide
Thi hvad bryder han sig siden om sit Hus, naar hans Maaneders Tal er udrundet?
22 to/for God to learn: teach knowledge and he/she/it to exalt to judge
Kan man vel tage Gud i Skole, ham, som dømmer de højeste Væsner?
23 this to die in/on/with bone integrity his all his at ease and at ease
En dør jo paa Lykkens Tinde, helt tryg og saa helt uden Sorger:
24 belly his to fill milk and marrow bone his to water: watering
hans Spande er fulde af Mælk, hans Knogler af saftig Marv;
25 and this to die in/on/with soul bitter and not to eat in/on/with welfare
med bitter Sjæl dør en anden og har aldrig nydt nogen Lykke;
26 unitedness upon dust to lie down: lay down and worm to cover upon them
de lægger sig begge i Jorden, og begge dækkes af Orme!
27 look! to know plot your and plot upon me to injure
Se, jeg kender saa vel eders Tanker og de Rænker, I spinder imod mig,
28 for to say where? house: home noble and where? tent tabernacle wicked
naar I siger: »Hvor er Stormandens Hus og det Telt, hvor de gudløse bor?«
29 not to ask to pass way: road and sign: indicator their not to recognize
Har I aldrig spurgt de berejste og godkendt deres Beviser:
30 for to/for day calamity to withhold bad: evil to/for day fury to conduct
Den onde skaanes paa Ulykkens Dag og frelses paa Vredens Dag.
31 who? to tell upon face his way: conduct his and he/she/it to make: do who? to complete to/for him
Hvem foreholder ham vel hans Færd, gengælder ham, hvad han gør?
32 and he/she/it to/for grave to conduct and upon tomb to watch
Til Graven bæres han hen, ved hans Gravhøj holdes der Vagt;
33 be sweet to/for him clod torrent: valley and after him all man to draw and to/for face: before his nothing number
i Dalbunden hviler han sødt, Alverden følger saa efter, en Flok uden Tal gik forud for ham.
34 and how? to be sorry: comfort me vanity and turn your to remain unfaithfulness
Hvor tom er den Trøst, som I giver! Eders Svar — kun Svig er tilbage!
