Kniha Jób

1 (UKJV) "There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. "
1 (KAT) V krajine Hus žil istý muž, menom Jób. Bol to muž dokonalý a statočný, bál sa Pána a chránil sa zlého.

2 (UKJV) And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.
2 (KAT) (Narodilo sa mu sedem synov a tri dcéry.)

3 (UKJV) "His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east. "
3 (KAT) V jeho stádach bolo sedemtisíc oviec, tritisíc tiav, päťsto záprahov rožného statku a päťsto oslíc. Aj čeľade mal veľmi mnoho. Bol to muž, ktorý vynikal nad všetkých synov Východu.

4 (UKJV) "And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them. "
4 (KAT) Jeho synovia často robili hostiny, každý v určitý deň vo svojom dome, a pozývali aj svoje tri sestry, aby s nimi jedli a pili.

5 (UKJV) And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
5 (KAT) No len čo uplynuli dni hodov, Jób si ich dal zavolať a obradne ich očisťoval. Vstal včasráno a podľa ich celkového počtu prinášal zápalné obety. Lebo Jób hovorieval: „Možno, že moji synovia zhrešili. Možno, že vo svojom srdci urazili Boha.“ A tak to Jób robil neprestajne.

6 (UKJV) Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
6 (KAT) Tu v ktorýsi deň prišli Boží synovia a postavili sa pred Pána. S nimi prišiel aj satan.

7 (UKJV) And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence come you? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going back and forth in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
7 (KAT) Pán povedal satanovi: „Skadiaľ prichádzaš?“ Satan odpovedal: „Chodil som krížom-krážom po zemi.“

8 (UKJV) And the LORD said unto Satan, Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that fears God, and turns away from evil?
8 (KAT) Pán povedal satanovi: „A všimol si si môjho služobníka Jóba? Niet mu rovného na zemi. Je to muž dokonalý a statočný, bojí sa Boha a chráni sa zlého.“

9 (UKJV) Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Does Job fear God for nothing?
9 (KAT) Satan odpovedal Pánovi: „Vari sa Jób zadarmo bojí Boha?!

10 (UKJV) Have not you made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he has on every side? you have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
10 (KAT) A neurobil si ty sám akoby ohradu okolo neho, okolo jeho domu a okolo všetkého jeho imania?! Požehnávaš prácu jeho rúk a jeho čriedy zaplavili šíry kraj.

11 (UKJV) But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will curse you to your face.
11 (KAT) Ale vztiahni ruku a zasiahni všetko jeho imanie, či ti nebude kliať do očí!“

12 (UKJV) "And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he has is in your power; only upon himself put not forth your hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD. "
12 (KAT) Tu Pán povedal satanovi: „Hľa, všetko, čo má, je v tvojich rukách, iba jeho samého sa nedotkni!“ A satan sa vzdialil spred Pánovej tváre.

13 (UKJV) And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
13 (KAT) Tak v ktorýsi deň jeho synovia a dcéry jedli a pili víno v dome svojho prvorodeného brata.

14 (UKJV) And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:
14 (KAT) Tu prišiel k Jóbovi posol a zvestoval: „Kým so záprahmi orali a oslice sa pásli vedľa, vpadli Sabejci, ulúpili ich a paholkov pobili ostrím meča.

15 (UKJV) "And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell you. "
15 (KAT) Ja jediný som unikol, aby som ti to oznámil.“

16 (UKJV) "While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and has burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell you. "
16 (KAT) On ešte hovoril a už prichádzal iný a zvestoval: „Pánov oheň padol z neba, spálil ovce i valachov a pohltil ich. Ja jediný som unikol, aby som ti to oznámil.“

17 (UKJV) "While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell you. "
17 (KAT) Aj on ešte hovoril a už prichádzal iný a zvestoval: „Chaldejci sa prihrnuli v troch tlupách, prepadli ťavy, ulúpili ich a pastierov pobili ostrím meča. Ja jediný som unikol, aby som ti to oznámil.“

18 (UKJV) While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
18 (KAT) Ani on ešte nedopovedal a už prichádzal iný a zvestoval: „Tvoji synovia a dcéry jedli a pili víno v dome svojho najstaršieho brata.

19 (UKJV) "And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and stroke the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell you. "
19 (KAT) A hľa, od púšte sa strhla veľká víchrica, oprela sa o štyri uhly domu, takže sa zrútil na deti a zahynuli. Ja jediný som unikol, aby som ti to oznámil.“

20 (UKJV) Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,
20 (KAT) Tu Jób vstal, roztrhol si odev, oholil si hlavu, padol na zem, klaňal sa

21 (UKJV) "And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. "
21 (KAT) a povedal: „Nahý som vyšiel z lona svojej matky a nahý sa ta vrátim. Pán dal, Pán vzal, nech je Pánovo meno zvelebené!“

22 (UKJV) In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.
22 (KAT) V tomto všetkom Jób nezhrešil a nevyriekol proti Bohu nič neprístojné.
