1 Potom otvori usta svoja Jov i stade kleti dan svoj.
1 After this Job opened his mouth, and cursed the day of his birth.
2 I progovorivši Jov reče:
2 Job answered:
3 Ne bilo dana u koji se rodih, i noći u kojoj rekoše: Rodi se detić!
3 “Let the day perish in which I was born, the night which said, ‘There is a boy conceived.’
4 Bio taj dan tama, ne gledao ga Bog ozgo, i ne osvetljavala ga svetlost!
4 Let that day be darkness. Don’t let God from above seek for it, neither let the light shine on it.
5 Mrak ga zaprznio i sen smrtni, oblak ga obastirao, bio strašan kao najgori dani!
5 Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own. Let a cloud dwell on it. Let all that makes the day black terrify it.
6 Noć onu osvojila tama, ne radovala se među danima godišnjim, ne brojala se u mesece!
6 As for that night, let thick darkness seize on it. Let it not rejoice among the days of the year. Let it not come into the number of the months.
7 Gle, noć ona bila pusta, pevanja ne bilo u njoj!
7 Behold, let that night be barren. Let no joyful voice come therein.
8 Kleli je koji kunu dane, koji su gotovi probuditi krokodila!
8 Let them curse it who curse the day, who are ready to rouse up leviathan.
9 Potamnele zvezde u sumračje njeno, čekala videlo i ne dočekala ga, i ne videla zori trepavica;
9 Let the stars of its twilight be dark. Let it look for light, but have none, neither let it see the eyelids of the morning,
10 Što mi nije zatvorila vrata od utrobe i nije sakrila muku od mojih očiju.
10 because it didn’t shut up the doors of my mother’s womb, nor did it hide trouble from my eyes.
11 Zašto ne umreh u utrobi? Ne izdahnuh izlazeći iz utrobe?
11 “Why didn’t I die from the womb? Why didn’t I give up the spirit when my mother bore me?
12 Zašto me prihvatiše kolena? Zašto sise, da sem?
12 Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breast, that I should nurse?
13 Jer bih sada ležao i počivao; spavao bih, i bio bih miran,
13 For now I should have lain down and been quiet. I should have slept, then I would have been at rest,
14 S carevima i savetnicima zemaljskim, koji zidaše sebi pustoline,
14 with kings and counselors of the earth, who built up waste places for themselves;
15 Ili s knezovima, koji imaše zlata, i kuće svoje puniše srebra.
15 or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver;
16 Ili zašto ne bih kao nedonošče sakriveno, kao dete koje ne ugleda videla?
16 or as a hidden untimely birth I had not been, as infants who never saw light.
17 Onde bezbožnici prestaju dosađivati, i onde počivaju iznemogli,
17 There the wicked cease from troubling. There the weary are at rest.
18 I sužnji se odmaraju i ne čuju glas nastojnikov.
18 There the prisoners are at ease together. They don’t hear the voice of the taskmaster.
19 Mali i veliki onde je, i rob slobodan od svog gospodara.
19 The small and the great are there. The servant is free from his master.
20 Zašto se daje videlo nevoljniku i život onima koji su tužnog srca,
20 “Why is light given to him who is in misery, life to the bitter in soul,
21 Koji čekaju smrt a nje nema, i traže je većma nego zakopano blago,
21 who long for death, but it doesn’t come; and dig for it more than for hidden treasures,
22 Koji igraju od radosti i vesele se kad nađu grob?
22 who rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?
23 Čoveku, kome je put sakriven i kog je Bog zatvorio odsvuda?
23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, whom God has hedged in?
24 Jer pre jela mog dolazi uzdah moj, i kao voda razliva se jauk moj.
24 For my sighing comes before I eat. My groanings are poured out like water.
25 Jer čega se bojah dođe na mene, i čega se strašah zadesi me.
25 For the thing which I fear comes on me, that which I am afraid of comes to me.
26 Ne počivah niti imah mira niti se odmarah, i opet dođe strahota.
26 I am not at ease, neither am I quiet, neither do I have rest; but trouble comes.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
And this he declared, when he said, "For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me; and that which I was afraid of is come unto me." And again, "But I wept for every helpless man, and groaned when I saw a man in distress." So because of this, nothing of what happened confounded him, none of those …
