¹“Yes, at this my heart trembles, and is moved out of its place.

¹Da, od toga i moje srce drhti i s mjesta svoga iskočiti hoće.

²Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, the sound that goes out of his mouth.

²Čujte, čujte gromor glasa njegova, tutnjavu što mu iz usta izlazi.

³He sends it forth under the whole sky, and his lightning to the ends of the earth.

³Gle, munja lijeće preko cijelog neba - i sijevne blijesak s kraja na kraj zemlje -

⁴After it a voice roars. He thunders with the voice of his majesty. He doesn’t hold back anything when his voice is heard.

⁴iza nje silan jedan glas se ori: to On gromori glasom veličajnim. Munje mu lete, nitko ih ne priječi, tek što mu je glas jednom odjeknuo.

⁵God thunders marvelously with his voice. He does great things, which we can’t comprehend.

⁵Da, Bog gromori glasom veličajnim, djela velebna, neshvatljiva stvara.

⁶For he says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth;’ likewise to the shower of rain, and to the showers of his mighty rain.

⁶Kad snijegu kaže: 'Zasniježi po zemlji!' i pljuskovima: 'Zapljuštite silno!'

⁷He seals up the hand of every man, that all men whom he has made may know it.

⁷svakom čovjeku zapečati ruke da svi njegovo upoznaju djelo.

⁸Then the animals take cover, and remain in their dens.

⁸U brlog se tad zvijeri sve uvuku i na svojem se šćućure ležaju.

⁹Out of its room comes the storm, and cold out of the north.

⁹S južne se strane podiže oluja, a studen vjetri sjeverni donose.

¹⁰By the breath of God, ice is given, and the breadth of the waters is frozen.

¹⁰Već led od daha Božjega nastaje i vodena se kruti površina.

¹¹Yes, he loads the thick cloud with moisture. He spreads abroad the cloud of his lightning.

¹¹I opet vodom puni on oblake, i sijevat' stanu oblaci munjama;

¹²It is turned around by his guidance, that they may do whatever he commands them on the surface of the habitable world,

¹²kruže posvuda po volji njegovoj, što im naloži, to će izvršiti na licu cijelog kruga zemaljskoga.

¹³Whether it is for correction, or for his land, or for loving kindness, that he causes it to come.

¹³Šalje ih - ili da kazni narode, ili da ih milosrđem obdari.

¹⁴“Listen to this, Job. Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.

¹⁴Poslušaj ovo, Jobe, umiri se i promotri djela Božja čudesna.

¹⁵Do you know how God controls them, and causes the lightning of his cloud to shine?

¹⁵Znaš li kako Bog njima zapovijeda, kako munju iz oblaka svog pušta?

¹⁶Do you know the workings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?

¹⁶Znaš li o čem vise gore oblaci? Čudesna to su znanja savršenog.

¹⁷You whose clothing is warm, when the earth is still by reason of the south wind?

¹⁷Kako ti gore od žege haljine u južnom vjetru kad zemlja obamre?

¹⁸Can you, with him, spread out the sky, which is strong as a cast metal mirror?

¹⁸Zar si nebesa s njim ti razapeo, čvrsta poput ogledala livenog?

¹⁹Teach us what we shall tell him, for we can’t make our case by reason of darkness.

¹⁹DÓe naputi me što da mu kažemo: zbog tmine se ne snalazimo više.

²⁰Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?

²⁰Zar ćeš mu reći: 'Hoću govoriti'? Ili na propast vlastitu pristati?

²¹Now men don’t see the light which is bright in the skies, but the wind passes, and clears them.

²¹Tko, dakle, može u svjetlost gledati na nebesima što se sja blistavo kada oblake rastjeraju vjetri?

²²Out of the north comes golden splendor. With God is awesome majesty.

²²Sa sjevera k'o zlato je bljesnulo: veličanstvom strašnim Bog se odjenu!

²³We can’t reach the Almighty. He is exalted in power. In justice and great righteousness, he will not oppress.

²³Da, Svesilnog doseći ne možemo, neizmjeran je u moći i sudu, velik u pravdi, nikog on ne tlači.

²⁴Therefore men revere him. He doesn’t regard any who are wise of heart.”

²⁴Zato ljudi svi neka ga se boje! Na mudrost oholu on i ne gleda!"
