Job 26
1 Toda Job je odgovoril in rekel:
But Job answered and said,
2 »Kako si pomagal tistemu, ki je brez moči? Kako rešuješ laket, ki nima moči?
To whom do you attach yourself, or whom are you going to assist? is it not he that [has] much strength, and [he] who has a strong arm?
3 Kako si svetoval tistemu, ki nima modrosti? Kako si obilno oznanil stvar, kakor je ta?
To whom have you given counsel? is it not to him who has all wisdom? whom will you follow? is it not one who has the greatest power?
4 Komu si izrekal besede? Čigav duh je prišel od tebe?
To whom have you uttered words? and whose breath is it that has come forth from you?
5 Mrtve stvari so oblikovane pod vodami in njihovi prebivalci.
Shall giants be born from under the water and the inhabitants thereof?
Hell is naked before him, and destruction has no covering. (Sheol h7585)
7 Sever izteguje nad praznim krajem in zemljo obeša na nič.
He stretches out the north wind upon nothing, and he upon nothing hangs the earth;
8 Vode povezuje v svoje debele oblake in pod njimi se oblak ne pretrga.
binding water in his clouds, and the cloud is not tore under it.
9 Zadržuje obličje svojega prestola in svoj oblak razprostira nad njim.
He keeps back the face of his throne, stretching out his cloud upon it.
10 Vode je obdal z vezmi, dokler dan in noč ne prideta do konca.
He has encompassed the face of the water by an appointed ordinance, until the end of light and darkness.
11 Stebri nebes trepetajo in so osupli ob njegovem opominu.
The pillars of heaven are prostrate and astonished at his rebuke.
12 On s svojo močjo razdeljuje morje in s svojim razumevanjem udarja po ponosnih.
He has calmed the sea with [his] might, and by [his] wisdom the whale has been overthrown.
13 S svojim duhom je okrasil nebo; njegova roka je oblikovala sprijeno kačo.
And the barriers of heaven fear him, and by a command he has slain the apostate dragon.
14 Glej! To so delčki njegovih poti. Toda kako majhen delček je slišati o njem? Toda kdo lahko razume grom njegove moči?«
Behold, these are parts of his way; and we will listen to him at the least intimation of his word: but the strength of his thunder who knows, when he shall employ [it]?
