Job 42
1 Then Job replied to the LORD:
ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ιωβ λέγει τῷ κυρίῳ
2 “I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted.
οἶδα ὅτι πάντα δύνασαι ἀδυνατεῖ δέ σοι οὐθέν
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.
τίς γάρ ἐστιν ὁ κρύπτων σε βουλήν φειδόμενος δὲ ῥημάτων καὶ σὲ οἴεται κρύπτειν τίς δὲ ἀναγγελεῖ μοι ἃ οὐκ ᾔδειν μεγάλα καὶ θαυμαστὰ ἃ οὐκ ἠπιστάμην
4 You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform Me.’
ἄκουσον δέ μου κύριε ἵνα κἀγὼ λαλήσω ἐρωτήσω δέ σε σὺ δέ με δίδαξον
5 My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.
ἀκοὴν μὲν ὠτὸς ἤκουόν σου τὸ πρότερον νυνὶ δὲ ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου ἑόρακέν σε
6 Therefore I retract my words, and I repent in dust and ashes.”
διὸ ἐφαύλισα ἐμαυτὸν καὶ ἐτάκην ἥγημαι δὲ ἐμαυτὸν γῆν καὶ σποδόν
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.
ἐγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὸ λαλῆσαι τὸν κύριον πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα τῷ Ιωβ εἶπεν ὁ κύριος Ελιφας τῷ Θαιμανίτῃ ἥμαρτες σὺ καὶ οἱ δύο φίλοι σου οὐ γὰρ ἐλαλήσατε ἐνώπιόν μου ἀληθὲς οὐδὲν ὥσπερ ὁ θεράπων μου Ιωβ
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.”
νῦν δὲ λάβετε ἑπτὰ μόσχους καὶ ἑπτὰ κριοὺς καὶ πορεύθητε πρὸς τὸν θεράποντά μου Ιωβ καὶ ποιήσει κάρπωσιν περὶ ὑμῶν Ιωβ δὲ ὁ θεράπων μου εὔξεται περὶ ὑμῶν ὅτι εἰ μὴ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ λήμψομαι εἰ μὴ γὰρ δῑ αὐτόν ἀπώλεσα ἂν ὑμᾶς οὐ γὰρ ἐλαλήσατε ἀληθὲς κατὰ τοῦ θεράποντός μου Ιωβ
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.
ἐπορεύθη δὲ Ελιφας ὁ Θαιμανίτης καὶ Βαλδαδ ὁ Σαυχίτης καὶ Σωφαρ ὁ Μιναῖος καὶ ἐποίησαν καθὼς συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς ὁ κύριος καὶ ἔλυσεν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν αὐτοῖς διὰ Ιωβ
10 After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his prosperity and doubled his former possessions.
ὁ δὲ κύριος ηὔξησεν τὸν Ιωβ εὐξαμένου δὲ αὐτοῦ καὶ περὶ τῶν φίλων αὐτοῦ ἀφῆκεν αὐτοῖς τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ἔδωκεν δὲ ὁ κύριος διπλᾶ ὅσα ἦν ἔμπροσθεν Ιωβ εἰς διπλασιασμόν
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.
ἤκουσαν δὲ πάντες οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ αἱ ἀδελφαὶ αὐτοῦ πάντα τὰ συμβεβηκότα αὐτῷ καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ πάντες ὅσοι ᾔδεισαν αὐτὸν ἐκ πρώτου φαγόντες δὲ καὶ πιόντες παρ’ αὐτῷ παρεκάλεσαν αὐτόν καὶ ἐθαύμασαν ἐπὶ πᾶσιν οἷς ἐπήγαγεν αὐτῷ ὁ κύριος ἔδωκεν δὲ αὐτῷ ἕκαστος ἀμνάδα μίαν καὶ τετράδραχμον χρυσοῦν ἄσημον
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.
ὁ δὲ κύριος εὐλόγησεν τὰ ἔσχατα Ιωβ ἢ τὰ ἔμπροσθεν ἦν δὲ τὰ κτήνη αὐτοῦ πρόβατα μύρια τετρακισχίλια κάμηλοι ἑξακισχίλιαι ζεύγη βοῶν χίλια ὄνοι θήλειαι νομάδες χίλιαι
13 And he also had seven sons and three daughters.
γεννῶνται δὲ αὐτῷ υἱοὶ ἑπτὰ καὶ θυγατέρες τρεῖς
14 He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch.
καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὴν μὲν πρώτην Ἡμέραν τὴν δὲ δευτέραν Κασίαν τὴν δὲ τρίτην Ἀμαλθείας κέρας
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.
καὶ οὐχ εὑρέθησαν κατὰ τὰς θυγατέρας Ιωβ βελτίους αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ ὑπ’ οὐρανόν ἔδωκεν δὲ αὐταῖς ὁ πατὴρ κληρονομίαν ἐν τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς
16 After this, Job lived 140 years and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation.
ἔζησεν δὲ Ιωβ μετὰ τὴν πληγὴν ἔτη ἑκατὸν ἑβδομήκοντα τὰ δὲ πάντα ἔζησεν ἔτη διακόσια τεσσαράκοντα ὀκτώ καὶ εἶδεν Ιωβ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ τετάρτην γενεάν
17 And so Job died, old and full of years.
καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν Ιωβ πρεσβύτερος καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν
