Chapter 11
1 Sofar iz Naama progovori tad i reče:
2 “Zar na riječi mnoge da se ne odvrati? Zar će se brbljavac još i opravdati?
3 Zar će tvoje trice ušutkati ljude, zar će ruganje ostat' neizrugano?
4 Rekao si: 'Nauk moj je neporočan, u očima tvojim čist sam i bez ljage.'
5 Ali kada bi Bog htio progovorit' i otvorit usta da ti odgovori
6 kada bi ti tajne mudrosti otkrio koje um nijedan ne može doumit', znao bi da ti za grijehe račun ište.
7 Možeš li dubine Božje proniknuti, dokučiti savršenstvo Svesilnoga?
8 Od neba je više: što još da učiniš? Od Šeola dublje: što još da mudruješ?
9 Duže je od zemlje - šire je od mora!
10 Ako se povuče, ako te pograbi, ako na sud preda, tko će mu braniti?
11 Jer on u čovjeku prozire prijevaru, vidi opačinu ako i ne gleda.
12 Čovjek se bezuman obraća k pameti i divlji magarac uzdi se pokori.
13 Ako li srce svoje ti uspraviš i ruke svoje pružiš prema njemu,
14 ako li zloću iz ruku odbaciš i u šatoru svom ne daš zlu stana,
15 čisto ćeš čelo moći tad podići, čvrst ćeš biti i bojati se nećeš.
16 Svojih se kušnja nećeš sjećat' više kao ni vode koja je protekla.
17 Jasnije će tvoj život sjat' no podne, tmina će se obratit' u svanuće.
18 U uzdanju svom živjet ćeš sigurno i zaštićen počivat ćeš u miru.
19 Kad legneš, nitko te buniti neće; mnogi će tvoju tražiti naklonost.
20 A zlikovcima ugasnut će oči, neće im više biti utočišta: izdahnut', bit će jedina im nada.”

Job

Chapter 11
1 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and said,
2 Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified?
3 Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?
4 For thou hast said, My doctrine is pure, and I am clean in thine eyes.
5 But oh that God would speak, and open his lips against thee;
6 And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that they are double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.
7 Canst thou by searching find out God? canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection?
8 It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know?
9 The measure thereof is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
10 If he cut off, and shut up, or gather together, then who can hinder him?
11 For he knoweth vain men: he seeth wickedness also; will he not then consider it?
12 For vain man would be wise, though man be born like a wild ass’s colt.
13 If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him;
14 If iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.
15 For then shalt thou lift up thy face without spot; yea, thou shalt be stedfast, and shalt not fear:
16 Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away:
17 And thine age shall be clearer than the noonday; thou shalt shine forth, thou shalt be as the morning.
18 And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt dig about thee, and thou shalt take thy rest in safety.
19 Also thou shalt lie down, and none shall make thee afraid; yea, many shall make suit unto thee.
20 But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and they shall not escape, and their hope shall be as the giving up of the ghost.
