Capítulo 31
1
Veru učinih sa očima svojim,
pa kako bih pogledao na devojku?
2
Jer kakav je deo od Boga odozgo?
I kakvo nasledstvo od Svemogućeg s visine?
3
Nije li pogibao nevaljalom
i čudo onima koji čine bezakonje?
4
Ne vide li On puteve moje,
i sve korake moje ne broji li?
5
Ako hodih s lažju
ili ako pohita noga moja na prevaru,
6
Neka me izmeri na merilima pravim,
i neka Bog pozna dobrotu moju.
7
Ako su koraci moji zašli s puta,
i ako je za očima mojim pošlo srce moje,
i za ruke moje prionulo šta god,
8
Neka ja sejem a drugi jede,
i neka se iskorene izdanci moji.
9
Ako se zanelo srce moje za kojom ženom,
i ako sam vrebao na vratima bližnjeg svog,
10
Neka drugom melje žena moja,
i neka se drugi nad njom povijaju.
11
Jer je to grdilo
i bezakonje za sudije.
12
Jer bi to bio oganj koji bi proždirao do uništenja,
i svu bi moju letinu iskorenio.
13
Ako nisam hteo doći na sud sa slugom svojim ili sa sluškinjom svojom,
kad bi se tužili na mene;
14
Jer šta bih činio kad bi se Bog podigao,
i kad bi potražio, šta bih Mu odgovorio?
15
Koji je mene stvorio u utrobi, nije li stvorio i njega?
Nije li nas On isti sazdao u materici?
16
Ako sam odbio siromasima želju njihovu,
i oči udovici zamutio,
17
I ako sam zalogaj svoj sam jeo,
a nije ga jela i sirota,
18
Jer je od mladosti moje rasla sa mnom kao kod oca,
i od utrobe matere svoje vodao sam je;
19
Ako sam gledao koga gde gine nemajući haljine,
i siromaha gde se nema čime pokriti,
20
Ako me nisu blagosiljala bedra njegova
što se runom ovaca mojih utoplio,
21
Ako sam izmahnuo rukom na sirotu,
kad videh na vratima pomoć svoju,
22
Neka mi ispadne rame iz pleća,
i ruka moja neka se otkine iz zgloba.
23
Jer sam se bojao pogibli od Boga,
kog veličanstvu ne bih odoleo.
24
Ako sam polagao na zlato nadanje svoje,
ili čistom zlatu govorio: Uzdanico moja!
25
Ako sam se veselio što mi je imanje veliko
i što mnogo stiče ruka moja,
26
Ako sam gledao na sunce, kad sjaje,
i na mesec kad ponosito hodi,
27
I srce se moje potajno prevarilo
i ruku moju poljubila usta moja,
28
I to bi bilo bezakonje za sudije,
jer bih se odrekao Boga ozgo;
29
Ako sam se radovao nesreći nenavidnika svog,
i ako sam zaigrao kada ga je zlo zadesilo,
30
Jer ne dadoh jeziku svom da greši
tražeći dušu njegovu s proklinjanjem;
31
Ako ne govorahu domašnji moji: Ko bi nam dao meso njegovo?
Ne možemo se ni najesti;
32
Stranac nije noćivao napolju;
vrata svoja otvarao sam putniku;
33
Ako sam, kao što čine ljudi, tajio prestupe svoje
i krio svoje bezakonje u svojim nedrima,
34
Ako sam i mogao plašiti veliko mnoštvo,
ipak od najmanjeg u domu beše me strah;
zato ćutah i ne odlažah od vrata.
35
O da bih imao koga da me sasluša!
Gle, želja je moja da mi Svemogući odgovori
i suparnik moj da mi napiše knjigu.
36
Nosio bih je na ramenu svom,
vezao bih je sebi kao venac,
37
Broj koraka svojih kazao bih Mu,
kao knez pristupio bih k Njemu.
38
Ako je na me vikala moja zemlja,
i brazde njene plakale,
39
Ako sam jeo rod njen bez novaca
i dosađivao duši gospodara njenih,
40
Mesto pšenice neka mi rađa trnje,
i mesto ječma kukolj. Svršiše se reči Jovove.
Job
Capítulo 31
1
I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?
2
For what portion of God is there from above? and what inheritance of the Almighty from on high?
3
Is not destruction to the wicked? and a strange punishment to the workers of iniquity?
4
Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?
5
If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted to deceit;
6
Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know mine integrity.
7
If my step hath turned out of the way, and mine heart walked after mine eyes, and if any blot hath cleaved to mine hands;
8
Then let me sow, and let another eat; yea, let my offspring be rooted out.
9
If mine heart have been deceived by a woman, or if I have laid wait at my neighbour’s door;
10
Then let my wife grind unto another, and let others bow down upon her.
11
For this is an heinous crime; yea, it is an iniquity to be punished by the judges.
12
For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction, and would root out all mine increase.
13
If I did despise the cause of my manservant or of my maidservant, when they contended with me;
14
What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?
15
Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb?
16
If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;
17
Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten thereof;
18
(For from my youth he was brought up with me, as with a father, and I have guided her from my mother’s womb;)
19
If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or any poor without covering;
20
If his loins have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
21
If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate:
22
Then let mine arm fall from my shoulder blade, and mine arm be broken from the bone.
23
For destruction from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure.
24
If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence;
25
If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;
26
If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness;
27
And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand:
28
This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above.
29
If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him:
30
Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse to his soul.
31
If the men of my tabernacle said not, Oh that we had of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied.
32
The stranger did not lodge in the street: but I opened my doors to the traveller.
33
If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom:
34
Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of families terrify me, that I kept silence, and went not out of the door?
35
Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book.
36
Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me.
37
I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him.
38
If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain;
39
If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:
40
Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.
