Job 42
1 Then Job replied to the LORD:
| أَيُّوبُ | ١ |
2 “I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted.
| «قَدْ أَدْرَكْتُ أَنَّكَ تَسْتَطِيعُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ وَلا يَتَعَذَّرُ عَلَيْكَ أَمْرٌ. | ٢ |
3 You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.
| تَسْأَلُنِي: مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يُخْفِي الْمَشُورَةَ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَعْرِفَةٍ؟ حَقّاً قَدْ نَطَقْتُ بِأُمُورٍ لَمْ أَفْهَمْهَا، بِعَجَائِبَ تَفُوقُ إِدْرَاكِي. | ٣ |
4 You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform Me.’
| اسْمَعِ الآنَ وَأَنَا أَتَكَلَّمُ، أَسْأَلُكَ وَأَنْتَ تُعَلِّمُنِي. | ٤ |
5 My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.
| بِسَمْعِ الأُذُنِ قَدْ سَمِعْتُ عَنْكَ وَالآنَ رَأَتْكَ عَيْنِي، | ٥ |
6 Therefore I retract my words, and I repent in dust and ashes.”
| لِذَلِكَ أَلُومُ نَفْسِي وَأَتُوبُ مُعَفِّراً ذَاتِي بِالتُّرَابِ وَالرَّمَادِ». | ٦ |
7 After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and your two friends. For you have not spoken about Me accurately, as My servant Job has.
| وَبَعْدَ أَنِ انْتَهَى الرَّبُّ مِنْ مُخَاطَبَةِ أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ لأَلِيفَازَ التَّيْمَانِيِّ: «لَقَدِ احْتَدَمَ غَضَبِي عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى كِلا صَدِيقَيْكَ، لأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَنْطِقُوا بِالصَّوَابِ عَنِّي كَمَا نَطَقَ عَبْدِي أَيُّوبُ. | ٧ |
8 So now, take seven bulls and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and sacrifice a burnt offering for yourselves. Then My servant Job will pray for you, for I will accept his prayer and not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken accurately about Me, as My servant Job has.”
| فَخُذُوا الآنَ لَكُمْ سَبْعَةَ ثِيرَانٍ وَسَبْعَةَ كِبَاشٍ، وَامْضُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي أَيُّوبَ وَقَرِّبُوهَا ذَبِيحَةَ مُحْرَقَةٍ عَنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ، فَيُصَلِّيَ مِنْ أَجْلِكُمْ، فَأَعْفُوَ عَنْكُمْ إِكْرَاماً لَهُ، لِئَلّا أُعَاقِبَكُمْ بِمُقْتَضَى حَمَاقَتِكُمْ، لأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَنْطِقُوا بِالْحَقِّ عَنِّي كَعَبْدِي أَيُّوبَ». | ٨ |
9 So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD had told them; and the LORD accepted Job’s request.
| فَذَهَبَ أَلِيفَازُ التَّيْمَانِيُّ وَبِلْدَدُ الشُّوحِيُّ وَصُوفَرُ النَّعْمَاتِيُّ وَفَعَلُوا كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ. وَأَكْرَمَ الرَّبُّ أَيُّوبَ. | ٩ |
10 After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his prosperity and doubled his former possessions.
| وَعِنْدَمَا صَلَّى أَيُّوبُ مِن أَجْلِ أَصْدِقَائِهِ رَدَّهُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ عُزْلَةِ مَنْفَاهُ، وَضَاعَفَ كُلَّ مَا كَانَ لَهُ مِنْ قَبْلُ. | ١٠ |
11 All his brothers and sisters and prior acquaintances came and dined with him in his house. They consoled him and comforted him over all the adversity that the LORD had brought upon him. And each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring.
| وَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ إِخْوَتُهُ وَأَخَوَاتُهُ وَكُلُّ مَعَارِفِهِ السَّابِقِينَ، وَتَنَاوَلُوا مَعَهُ طَعَاماً فِي بَيْتِهِ، وَأَبْدَوْا لَهُ كُلَّ رِفْقٍ، وَعَزُّوهُ عَنْ كُلِّ مَا أَنْزَلَهُ بِهِ الرَّبُّ مِنْ بَلْوَى، وَقَدَّمَ لَهُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ بَعْضَ الْمَالِ وَخَاتَماً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ. | ١١ |
12 So the LORD blessed Job’s latter days more than his first. He owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
| وَبَارَكَ الرَّبُّ آخِرَةَ أَيُّوبَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أُولاهُ، فَأَصْبَحَ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ أَلْفَ خَرُوفٍ وَسِتَّةُ آلافٍ مِنَ الإِبِلِ وَأَلْفُ زَوْجٍ مِنَ الْبَقَرِ وَأَلْفُ أَتَانٍ. | ١٢ |
13 And he also had seven sons and three daughters.
| وَرَزَقَهُ اللهُ سَبْعَةَ بَنِينَ وَثَلاثَ بَنَاتٍ، | ١٣ |
14 He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch.
| فَدَعَا الأُولَى يَمِيمَةَ، وَالثَّانِيَةَ قَصِيعَةَ وَالثَّالِثَةَ قَرْنَ هَفُّوكَ. | ١٤ |
15 No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters could be found in all the land, and their father granted them an inheritance among their brothers.
| وَلَمْ تُوْجَدْ فِي كُلِّ الْبِلادِ نِسَاءٌ جَمِيلاتٌ مِثْلَ بَنَاتِ أَيُّوبَ، وَوَهَبَهُنَّ أَبُوهُنَّ مِيرَاثاً بَيْنَ إِخْوَتِهِنَّ. | ١٥ |
16 After this, Job lived 140 years and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation.
| وَعَاشَ أَيُّوبُ بَعْدَ تَجْرِبَتِهِ مِئَةً وَأَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، وَاكْتَحَلَتْ عَيْنَاهُ بِرُؤْيَةِ أَبْنَائِهِ وَأَحْفَادِهِ إِلَى الْجِيلِ الرَّابِعِ. | ١٦ |
17 And so Job died, old and full of years.
| ثُمَّ مَاتَ أَيُّوبُ شَيْخاً، وَقَدْ شَبِعَ مِنَ الأَيَّامِ. | ١٧ |
