Capítulo 12
1
Job progovori i reče:
2
“Uistinu, vi ste cvijet naroda, sa vama će izumrijeti mudrost.
3
Al' i ja znam k'o i vi misliti, ni u čemu od vas gori nisam: tko za stvari takve ne bi znao?
4
Prijateljima sam svojim ja na podsmijeh što zazivam Boga da mi odgovori! Na podsmijeh ja sam - pravednik neporočan!
5
Prezirat' je nesretnika - sretni misle, udariti treba onog što posrće!
6
Dotle su na miru šatori pljačkaša, izazivači Boga žive bezbrižno kao da Boga u šaci svojoj drže!
7
Ali pitaj zvijeri, i poučit će te; ptice nebeske pitaj, i razjasnit će ti.
8
Gušteri zemlje to će ti protumačit', ribe u moru ispripovjedit će ti.
9
Od stvorenja sviju, koje ne bi znalo da je sve to Božja ruka učinila?!
10
U ruci mu leži život svakog bića i dah životvorni svakog ljudskog tijela.
11
Zar uhom mi ne sudimo besjedu k'o što kušamo nepcem okus jela?
12
Sjedine mudrost donose čovjeku, a s vijekom dugim umnost mu dolazi.
13
Ali u Njemu mudrost je i snaga, u Njemu savjet je i sva razumnost.
14
Što razgradi, sagradit neće nitko, kog zatvori, nitko ne oslobađa.
15
Ustavi li vodu, suša nastaje; pusti li je, svu zemlju ispremetne.
16
Jer u njemu je snaga i sva mudrost, njegov je prevareni i varalica.
17
On savjetnike lišava razbora, suce pametne udara bezumljem.
18
On otpasuje pojas kraljevima i užetom im vezuje bokove.
19
On bosonoge tjera svećenike i mogućnike sa vlasti obara.
20
On diže riječ iz usta rječitima i starcima pravo rasuđivanje.
21
On sasiplje prezir po plemićima i junacima bedra raspasuje.
22
On dubinama razotkriva tmine i sjenu smrtnu na svjetlo izvodi.
23
On diže narod pa ga uništava, umnoži ga a potom iskorijeni.
24
On zaluđuje vladare naroda te po bespuću lutaju pustinjskom
25
i pipaju u tmini bez svjetlosti glavinjajući poput pijanaca.
Job
Capítulo 12
1
And Job answered and said,
2
No doubt but ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you.
3
But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these?
4
I am as one mocked of his neighbour, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is laughed to scorn.
5
He that is ready to slip with his feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease.
6
The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth abundantly.
7
But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:
8
Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.
9
Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this?
10
In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.
11
Doth not the ear try words? and the mouth taste his meat?
12
With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.
13
With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding.
14
Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.
15
Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth.
16
With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his.
17
He leadeth counsellors away spoiled, and maketh the judges fools.
18
He looseth the bond of kings, and girdeth their loins with a girdle.
19
He leadeth princes away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty.
20
He removeth away the speech of the trusty, and taketh away the understanding of the aged.
21
He poureth contempt upon princes, and weakeneth the strength of the mighty.
22
He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out to light the shadow of death.
23
He increaseth the nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth the nations, and straiteneth them again.
24
He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.
25
They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like a drunken man.
