1 А Господ опет одговарајући Јову из вихора рече:
1 Moreover Yahweh answered Job,
2 Опаши се сада као човек; ја ћу те питати, а ти ми казуј.
2 “Shall he who argues contend with the Almighty? He who argues with God, let him answer it.”
3 Хоћеш ли ти уништити мој суд? Хоћеш ли мене осудити да би себе оправдао?
3 Then Job answered Yahweh,
4 Је ли у тебе мишица као у Бога? Грмиш ли гласом као Он?
4 “Behold, I am of small account. What will I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth.
5 Окити се сада чашћу и величанством, у славу и красоту обуци се.
5 I have spoken once, and I will not answer; Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.”
6 Проспи јарост гнева свог, и погледај све поносите, и обори их.
6 Then Yahweh answered Job out of the whirlwind:
7 Погледај све поносите, и понизи их, и потри безбожнике на месту њиховом.
7 “Now brace yourself like a man. I will question you, and you will answer me.
8 Затрпај их све у прах, и повежи им лице на скривеном месту.
8 Will you even annul my judgment? Will you condemn me, that you may be justified?
9 Тада ћу те и ја хвалити да те чува десница твоја.
9 Or do you have an arm like God? Can you thunder with a voice like him?
10 А гле, слон, ког сам створио с тобом, једе траву као во;
10 “Now deck yourself with excellency and dignity. Array yourself with honor and majesty.
11 Гле, снага му је у бедрима његовим, и сила му је у пупку трбуха његовог;
11 Pour out the fury of your anger. Look at everyone who is proud, and bring him low.
12 Диже реп свој као кедар, жиле од јаја његових сплетене су као гране;
12 Look at everyone who is proud, and humble him. Crush the wicked in their place.
13 Кости су му као цеви бронзане, зглавци као полуге гвоздене.
13 Hide them in the dust together. Bind their faces in the hidden place.
14 Он је прво између дела Божијих, Творац његов дао му је мач.
14 Then I will also admit to you that your own right hand can save you.
15 Горе носе му пићу, и све зверје пољско игра се онде.
15 “See now behemoth, which I made as well as you. He eats grass as an ox.
16 У хладу леже, у густој трсци и глибу.
16 Look now, his strength is in his thighs. His force is in the muscles of his belly.
17 Граната дрвета заклањају га сеном својим, и опкољавају га врбе на потоцима.
17 He moves his tail like a cedar. The sinews of his thighs are knit together.
18 Гле, уставља реку да не тече, узда се да ће испити Јордан губицом својом.
18 His bones are like tubes of bronze. His limbs are like bars of iron.
19 Хоће ли га ко ухватити на очи његове? Замку му провући кроз нос?
19 He is the chief of the ways of God. He who made him gives him his sword.
20 Хоћеш ли удицом извући крокодила или ужем подвезати му језик?
20 Surely the mountains produce food for him, where all the animals of the field play.
21 Хоћеш ли му провући ситу кроз нос? Или му шиљком провртети чељусти?
21 He lies under the lotus trees, in the covert of the reed, and the marsh.
22 Хоће ли те много молити, или ће ти ласкати?
22 The lotuses cover him with their shade. The willows of the brook surround him.
23 Хоће ли учинити веру с тобом да га узмеш да ти буде слуга до века?
23 Behold, if a river overflows, he doesn’t tremble. He is confident, though the Jordan swells even to his mouth.
24 Хоћеш ли се играти с њим као с птицом, или ћеш га везати девојкама својим?
24 Shall any take him when he is on the watch, or pierce through his nose with a snare?
25 Хоће ли се њим частити другови? Разделити га међу трговце?

26 Хоћеш ли му напунити кожу шиљцима и главу оствама?

27 Дигни на њ руку своју; нећеш више помињати боја.

28 Гле, залуду је надати му се; кад га само угледа човек, не пада ли?

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).
According to Job, there was in the waters the dragon that draweth up Jordan into his mouth.
