The manuscripts belong to the targum of Job in Qumran (Cave 4) were founded in the year 1952 and included the verses Job 3,5–9; 4,16–5,4 (4Q157). In this article we compared the Aramaic fragments with the masoretic text, the rabbinical standard targum of Job and with the texts of the Septuagint and the Peshitta. We observed the following techniques of the translation: the identity of semantic and lexical phrases, parallel vocabulary, the differences in the method of the translation – periphrastic translation, differents translations of the Hebrew words between the Aramaic versions, the discrepancy according to the persons and the roots of the verbs. In the end we emphasize very faithful translation of the Aramaic versions of the Masoretic text.
