Job 26
1 Toda Job je odgovoril in rekel:
Then Job answered, and said,
2 »Kako si pomagal tistemu, ki je brez moči? Kako rešuješ laket, ki nima moči?
How thou have helped him who is without power! How thou have saved the arm that has no strength!
3 Kako si svetoval tistemu, ki nima modrosti? Kako si obilno oznanil stvar, kakor je ta?
How thou have counseled him who has no wisdom, and plentifully declared sound knowledge!
4 Komu si izrekal besede? Čigav duh je prišel od tebe?
To whom have thou uttered words? And whose spirit came forth from thee?
5 Mrtve stvari so oblikovane pod vodami in njihovi prebivalci.
Those who are deceased tremble beneath the waters and the inhabitants of it.
Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering. (Sheol h7585)
7 Sever izteguje nad praznim krajem in zemljo obeša na nič.
He stretches out the north over empty space, and hangs the earth upon nothing.
8 Vode povezuje v svoje debele oblake in pod njimi se oblak ne pretrga.
He binds up the waters in his thick clouds, and the cloud is not burst under them.
9 Zadržuje obličje svojega prestola in svoj oblak razprostira nad njim.
He encloses the face of his throne, and spreads his cloud upon it.
10 Vode je obdal z vezmi, dokler dan in noč ne prideta do konca.
He has described a boundary upon the face of the waters, to the confines of light and darkness.
11 Stebri nebes trepetajo in so osupli ob njegovem opominu.
The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his rebuke.
12 On s svojo močjo razdeljuje morje in s svojim razumevanjem udarja po ponosnih.
He stirs up the sea with his power, and by his understanding he smites through Rahab.
13 S svojim duhom je okrasil nebo; njegova roka je oblikovala sprijeno kačo.
By his Spirit the heavens are garnished. His hand has pierced the swift serpent.
14 Glej! To so delčki njegovih poti. Toda kako majhen delček je slišati o njem? Toda kdo lahko razume grom njegove moči?«
Lo, these are but the periphery of his ways. And how small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?
