Knjiga o Jovu
Capitolo 14
1
Čovek rođen od žene kratka je veka i pun nemira.
2
Kao cvet niče, i odseca se,
i beži kao sen, i ne ostaje.
3
I na takvog otvaraš oko svoje,
i mene vodiš na sud sa sobom!
4
Ko će čisto izvaditi iz nečista?
Niko.
5
Izmereni su dani njegovi,
broj meseca njegovih u Tebe je;
postavio si mu među, preko koje ne može preći.
6
Odvrati se od njega da počine
dokle ne navrši kao nadničar dan svoj.
7
Jer za drvo ima nadanja, ako se poseče,
da će se još omladiti
i da neće biti bez izdanka;
8
Ako i ostari u zemlji koren njegov
i u prahu izumre panj njegov,
9
Čim oseti vodu, opet napupi
i pusti grane kao prisad.
10
A čovek umire iznemogao;
i kad izdahne čovek, gde je?
11
Kao kad voda oteče iz jezera
i reka opadne i usahne,
12
Tako čovek kad legne, ne ustaje više;
dokle je nebesa neće se probuditi
niti će se prenuti oda sna svog.
13
O da me hoćeš u grobu sakriti
i skloniti me dokle ne utoli gnev Tvoj,
i da mi daš rok kad ćeš me se opomenuti!
14
Kad umre čovek, hoće li oživeti?
Sve dane vremena koje mi je određeno čekaću
dokle mi dođe promena.
15
Zazvaćeš, i ja ću Ti se odazvati;
delo ruku svojih poželećeš.
16
A sada brojiš korake moje,
i ništa ne ostavljaš za greh moj.
17
Zapečaćeni su u tobocu moji prestupi,
i zavezuješ bezakonja moja.
18
Zaista, kao što gora padne i raspadne se,
i kao što se stena odvali s mesta svog,
19
I kao što voda spira kamenje
i povodanj odnosi prah zemaljski,
tako nadanje čovečije obraćaš u ništa.
20
Nadvlađuješ ga jednako, te odlazi,
menjaš mu lice i otpuštaš ga.
21
Ako sinovi njegovi budu u časti, on ne zna;
ako li u sramoti, on se ne brine.
22
Samo telo dok je živ boluje,
i duša njegova u njemu tuži.
Job
Capitolo 14
1
Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.
2
He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.
3
And dost thou open thine eyes upon such an one, and bringest me into judgment with thee?
4
Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
5
Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass;
6
Turn from him, that he may rest, till he shall accomplish, as an hireling, his day.
7
For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
8
Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;
9
Yet through the scent of water it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant.
10
But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
11
As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:
12
So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
13
O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!
14
If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
15
Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.
16
For now thou numberest my steps: dost thou not watch over my sin?
17
My transgression is sealed up in a bag, and thou sewest up mine iniquity.
18
And surely the mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of his place.
19
The waters wear the stones: thou washest away the things which grow out of the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.
20
Thou prevailest for ever against him, and he passeth: thou changest his countenance, and sendest him away.
21
His sons come to honour, and he knoweth it not; and they are brought low, but he perceiveth it not of them.
22
But his flesh upon him shall have pain, and his soul within him shall mourn.
