< Job 42 >

1 To naah Job mah Angraeng khaeah,
Then Job answered the LORD,
2 hmuennawk boih na sak thaih, tito ka panoek; hmuen sak han nam sakhaih mi mah doeh pakaa thai ai, tito ka panoek.
"I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.
3 Panoekhaih tawn ai ah ka thuih ih lok anghmasak kami loe mi aa? tiah lok nang dueng; kai loe ka panoek ai ih loknawk, ka panoek ai ih hmuennawk hoi paroeai dawnrai koi hmuennawk to ka thuih moeng boeh.
You asked, 'Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?' therefore I have uttered that which I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.
4 Nang mah, Tahngai ah, lok kang thuih han; kang dueng ih lok to na pathim ah, tiah nang naa.
You said, 'Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.'
5 Na thuih ih lok to ka naa mah thaih boeh, vaihi ka mik mah nang to hnuk boeh.
I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.
6 To pongah kaimah hoi kaimah hae panuet moe, dawnpakhuemhaih amtuengsak hanah, maiphu hoi vaipoep nuiah kang hnut boeh, tiah a naa.
Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes."
7 Angraeng mah Job khaeah hae loknawk thuih pacoengah, Angraeng mah Teman acaeng Eliphaz khaeah, Nang hoi nam pui hnik nuiah palung ka phui; ka tamna Job mah thuih ih lok baktiah, loktang ah kaom kai kawng to na thui hoi ai.
It was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
8 To pongah vaihi maitaw tae sarihto hoi tuu tae sarihto lak pacoengah, ka tamna Job khaeah caeh oh loe, nangmacae hanah hmai angbawnhaih to sah oh; ka tamna Job mah nangcae han lawk na thui pae tih; anih lawkthuihaih to ka talawk pae han; toe ka tamna Job mah thuih ih lok baktiah, loktang ah kaom kai kawng to na thui hoi ai pongah, nam thu o haih atho to kang pathok han, tiah a naa.
Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has."
9 To pongah, Teman acaeng Eliphaz, Shuh acaeng Bildad hoi Namaath acaeng Zophar cae loe caeh o moe, Angraeng mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah a sak o; to naah Angraeng mah Job lawkthuihaih to tahngaih pae.
So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did what the LORD commanded them, and the LORD accepted Job.
10 Job mah ampuinawk han lawkthuih pae pacoengah, Angraeng mah canghniah tawnh ih hmuen pongah alet hnetto kamtlai ah angraenghaih to paek let.
The LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends. The LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11 To pacoengah angmah ih nawkamyanawk, a tanunawk, ampui kangzongnawk anih khaeah angzoh o moe, a im ah anih hoi nawnto buhcaakhaih to a sak o; Angraeng mah anih nuiah phaksak ih raihaih pongah nihcae mah anih to palungset o haih moe, pathloep o; nihcae boih mah sum kanglung phoisa hoi sui bantuek maeto anih hanah paqum pae o.
Then came there to him all his brothers, and all his sisters, and all those who had been of his acquaintance before, and ate bread with him in his house. They comforted him, and consoled him concerning all the evil that the LORD had permitted on him. And each of them gave him a kesitah and a gold ring.
12 Hnukkhuem ah loe Angraeng mah Job hanah hmaloe ih pongah kamtlai ah tahamhoihaih to paek pongah, tuu sang hatlai palito, kaengkuu hrang sang tarukto, laikok atok thaih maitaw tae sangto hoi laa hrang sangto a tawnh.
So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.
13 Anih mah capa sarihto hoi canu thumto sak let.
He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14 Canu kacoeh loe Jemima, hnetto haih loe Kezia, thumto haih loe Keren-Happuh, tiah ahmin phui.
He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.
15 Prae thung boih ah Job canu baktih kranghoih nongpata mi doeh om ai; nihcae ih ampa Job loe a canunawk hanah, nihcae ih thangqoi nongpanawk hoi kangvan ah qawk to pazet pae.
In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
16 To pacoengah Job loe saning cumvai, quipalito hing; a caanawk hnuk pacoengah, a caanawk ih caa patoeng, adung pali karoek to hnuk vop.
After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, to four generations.
17 Job loe saning akoep moe, mitong naah duek.
So Job died, being old and full of days.
