Kniha Jób

1 (KAT) Tu Boh prehovoril z lona búrky k Jóbovi:
1 (VUL) Respondens autem Dominus Iob de turbine dixit:
1 (UKJV) Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

2 (KAT) „Kto to prozreteľnosť zatemňuje zas a slovami, v ktorých vedy vôbec niet?!
2 (VUL) “ Quis est iste obscurans consilium sermonibus imperitis?
2 (UKJV) Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?

3 (KAT) Slabiny si opáš ako hrdina, ja sa budem pýtať, ty ma poučíš.
3 (VUL) Accinge sicut vir lumbos tuos; interrogabo te, et edoce me.
3 (UKJV) "Gird up now your loins like a man; for I will demand of you, and answer you me. "

4 (KAT) Keď som zem zakladal, kde si vtedy bol, nože mi to povedz, akže pravdu znáš!
4 (VUL) Ubi eras, quando ponebam fundamenta terrae? Indica mihi, si habes intellegentiam.
4 (UKJV) Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if you have understanding.

5 (KAT) Vieš ty, kto jej vtedy určil rozmery, kto to obvinul ju sťaby povrázkom?
5 (VUL) Quis posuit mensuras eius, si nosti? Vel quis tetendit super eam lineam?
5 (UKJV) Who has laid the measures thereof, if you know? or who has stretched the line upon it?

6 (KAT) Do čoho jej stĺpy zapustené sú a kto položil jej kameň uholný,
6 (VUL) Super quo bases illius solidatae sunt? Aut quis demisit lapidem angularem eius,
6 (UKJV) "Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; "

7 (KAT) keď si ranné hviezdy zborom spievali a Boží synovia všetci plesali?
7 (VUL) cum clamarent simul astra matutina, et iubilarent omnes filii Dei?
7 (UKJV) When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

8 (KAT) Ktože bránami to more uzavrel, keď sa prúdom vzdulo, zo dna vyvrelo,
8 (VUL) Quis conclusit ostiis mare, quando erumpebat quasi de visceribus procedens,
8 (UKJV) Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?

9 (KAT) keď som za odev mu oblak pridelil, ako plienky zasa mračno pošmúrne?
9 (VUL) cum ponerem nubem vestimentum eius et caligine illud quasi fascia obvolverem?
9 (UKJV) When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddling band for it,

10 (KAT) Potom som ho sputnal svojím zákonom, vložil som naň zámok, dvoje brány tiež.
10 (VUL) Definivi illud terminis meis et posui vectem et ostia
10 (UKJV) And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,

11 (KAT) Povedal som: »Potiaľ smieš, ďalej nie, tu sa už rozbije pýcha tvojich vĺn.«
11 (VUL) et dixi: Usque huc venies et non procedes amplius et hic confringes tumentes fluctus tuos.
11 (UKJV) And said, Until now shall you come, but no further: and here shall your proud waves be stayed?

12 (KAT) Či za svojich dní si dal ránu rozkazy a zorničke si určil miesto jej,
12 (VUL) Numquid in diebus tuis praecepisti diluculo et assignasti aurorae locum suum,
12 (UKJV) "Have you commanded the morning since your days; and caused the dayspring to know his place; "

13 (KAT) aby zachytila zeme okraje, a tak hriešnici z nej boli zmetení?
13 (VUL) et, cum extrema terrae teneres, excussi sunt impii ex ea?
13 (UKJV) That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?

14 (KAT) Jak smola pečatná, tak sa premieňa, ona sa jak rúcho líči farbami.
14 (VUL) Vertetur in lutum signatum et stabit sicut vestimentum.
14 (UKJV) "It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment. "

15 (KAT) Hriešnikom ich svetla nedostane sa, napriahnuté rameno sa už doláme.
15 (VUL) Cohibetur ab impiis lux sua, et brachium excelsum confringetur.
15 (UKJV) And from the wicked their light is withheld, and the high arm shall be broken.

16 (KAT) Vari až ku žriedlam mora došiel si, na dne hlbočiny si sa prechádzal?
16 (VUL) Numquid ingressus es scaturigines maris et in novissimis abyssi deambulasti?
16 (UKJV) Have you entered into the springs of the sea? or have you walked in the search of the depth?

17 (KAT) Tebe brány smrti ukázali sa, alebo si videl brány temravy?
17 (VUL) Numquid apertae sunt tibi portae mortis, et ostia tenebrosa vidisti?
17 (UKJV) Have the gates of death been opened unto you? or have you seen the doors of the shadow of death?

18 (KAT) Po šíravách zeme si sa rozhliadol? Ak ju celú poznáš, nože rozpovedz:
18 (VUL) Numquid considerasti latitudinem terrae? Indica mihi, si nosti omnia:
18 (UKJV) Have you perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if you know it all.

19 (KAT) Kadiaľ vedie cesta k svetla bydlisku, kde zas majú svoje miesto temnoty,
19 (VUL) In qua via lux habitet, et tenebrarum quis locus sit;
19 (UKJV) Where is the way where light dwells? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,

20 (KAT) aby si ich na ich panstvo zaviedol, akže poznáš chodník do ich domova?
20 (VUL) ut ducas unumquodque ad terminos suos et intellegas semitas domus eius?
20 (UKJV) That you should take it to the bound thereof, and that you should know the paths to the house thereof?

21 (KAT) S nimi si sa zrodil, už to iste vieš, veď preveľký je počet tvojich dní.
21 (VUL) Novisti, nam tunc natus eras, et numerus dierum tuorum multus!
21 (UKJV) Know you it, because you were then born? or because the number of your days is great?

22 (KAT) K zásobárňam snehu vari zašiel si, ľadovca si uzrel zásobárne tiež,
22 (VUL) Numquid ingressus es thesauros nivis aut thesauros grandinis aspexisti,
22 (UKJV) Have you entered into the treasures of the snow? or have you seen the treasures of the hail,

23 (KAT) ktoré uschoval som na deň pohromy, na deň veľkej bitky, vojny nemalej.
23 (VUL) quae praeparavi in tempus angustiae, in diem pugnae et belli?
23 (UKJV) Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?

24 (KAT) Kdeže cesta je ta, hmly kde delia sa, po zemi sa šíri vietor východný?
24 (VUL) Per quam viam spargitur lux, diffunditur ventus urens super terram?
24 (UKJV) By what way is the light parted, which scatters the east wind upon the earth?

25 (KAT) Ktože to vykopal ručaj prívalu, ktože cestu tobôž bleskom hromovým,
25 (VUL) Quis dedit vehementissimo imbri cursum et viam fulmini tonanti,
25 (UKJV) "Who has divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder; "

26 (KAT) nezaľudnenú zem dážď by zavlažil, tú púšť, na ktorej niet ani človeka,
26 (VUL) ut plueret super terram absque homine, in deserto, ubi nullus mortalium commoratur,
26 (UKJV) "To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man; "

27 (KAT) by zem spustošenú, sirú zavodnil, by zo stepi znovu vzišla travina?
27 (VUL) ut impleret inviam et desolatam et produceret herbas in terra arida?
27 (UKJV) "To satisfy the desolate and waste ground; and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth? "

28 (KAT) Kde dážď teda (svojho) otca má, alebo kto splodil rosy kvapôčky?
28 (VUL) Quis est pluviae pater, vel quis genuit stillas roris?
28 (UKJV) Has the rain a father? or who has begotten the drops of dew?

29 (KAT) Z čiehože lona to ľady vychodia, nebeská inovať, ktože splodil ju?
29 (VUL) De cuius sinu egressa est glacies, et pruinam de caelo quis genuit?
29 (UKJV) Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who has gendered it?

30 (KAT) Veď aj vody stvrdnú sťaby na kameň, takisto aj hĺbok stuhne hladina.
30 (VUL) In similitudinem lapidis aquae durantur, et superficies abyssi constringitur.
30 (UKJV) The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen.

31 (KAT) Môžeš zakosíliť pásy Kuriatok, Orióna putá môžeš rozviazať?

41 (KAT) Ktože krkavcovi pokrm prichystá, keď mláďatá jeho k Bohu volajú, nemajú čo žrať už, len tak trasú sa?
