< Job 42 >

1 Then Job answered Jehovah, and said,
Respondens autem Iob Domino, dixit:
2 I know that thou can do all things, and that no purpose of thine can be restrained.
Scio quia omnia potes, et nulla te latet cogitatio.
3 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.
Quis est iste, qui celat consilium absque scientia? ideo insipienter locutus sum, et quae ultra modum excederent scientiam meam.
4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak, I will ask of thee, and declare thou to me.
Audi, et ego loquar: interrogabo te, et responde mihi.
5 I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees thee.
Auditu auris audivi te, nunc autem oculus meus videt te.
6 Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
Idcirco ipse me reprehendo, et ago poenitentiam in favilla et cinere.
7 And it was so, that, after Jehovah had spoken these words to Job, Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends. For ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
Postquam autem locutus est Dominus verba haec ad Iob, dixit ad Eliphaz Themanitem: Iratus est furor meus in te, et in duos amicos tuos, quoniam non estis locuti coram me rectum, sicut servus meus Iob.
8 Now therefore, take to you seven bullocks 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 him I will accept, that I not deal with you after your folly. For ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
Sumite ergo vobis septem tauros, et septem arietes, et ite ad servum meum Iob, et offerte holocaustum pro vobis: Iob autem servus meum orabit pro vobis: faciem eius suscipiam ut non vobis imputetur stultitia: neque enim locuti estis ad me recta, sicut servus meus Iob.
9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did according as Jehovah commanded them, and Jehovah accepted Job.
Abierunt ergo Eliphaz Themanites, et Baldad Suhites, et Sophar Naamathites, et fecerunt sicut locutus fuerat Dominus ad eos, et suscepit Dominus faciem Iob.
10 And Jehovah turned back the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends. And Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before.
Dominus quoque conversus est ad poenitentiam Iob, cum oraret ille pro amicis suis. Et addidit Dominus omnia quaecumque fuerant Iob, duplicia.
11 Then there came 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. And they bemoaned him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him. Each man also gave him a piece of money, and each one a ring of gold.
Venerunt autem ad eum omnes fratres sui, et universae sorores suae, et cuncti qui noverant eum prius, et comederunt cum eo panem in domo eius: et moverunt super eum caput, et consolati sunt eum super omni malo quod intulerat Dominus super eum: Et dederunt ei unusquisque ovem unam, et inaurem auream unam.
12 So Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-donkeys.
Dominus autem benedixit novissimis Iob magis quam principio eius. Et facta sunt ei quattuordecim millia ovium, et sex millia camelorum, et mille iuga boum, et mille asinae.
13 He had also seven sons and three daughters.
Et fuerunt ei septem filii, et tres filiae.
14 And he called the name of the first, Jemimah, and the name of the second, Keziah, and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
Et vocavit nomen unius Diem, et nomen secundae Cassiam, et nomen tertiae Cornustibii.
15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job. And their father gave them inheritance among their brothers.
Non sunt autem inventae mulieres speciosae sicut filiae Iob in universa terra: deditque eis pater suus hereditatem inter fratres earum.
16 And after this Job lived a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
Vixit autem Iob post haec, centum quadraginta annis, et vidit filios suos, et filios filiorum suorum usque ad quartam generationem,
17 So Job died, being old and full of days.
et mortuus est senex, et plenus dierum.
