Job 42
1 Then Job replied to the LORD:
Potem je Job odgovoril Gospodu in rekel:
2 “I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted.
»Vem, da lahko narediš vsako stvar in da nobena misel ne more biti zadržana pred teboj.
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.
Kdo je tisti, ki skriva nasvet brez spoznanja? Torej sem rekel, da ne razumem. Stvari zame prečudovite, ki jih nisem poznal.
4 You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform Me.’
Prisluhni, rotim te in bom govoril. Zahteval bom od tebe in oznani mi.
5 My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.
Slišal sem o tebi po poslušanju svojega ušesa. Toda sedaj te vidi moje oko.
6 Therefore I retract my words, and I repent in dust and ashes.”
Torej preziram samega sebe in se kesam v prahu in pepelu.«
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.
To je bilo tako, da je potem, ko je Gospod te besede govoril Jobu, Gospod rekel Elifázu Temáncu: »Moj bes je vnet zoper tebe in zoper tvoja dva prijatelja, kajti o meni niste govorili stvari, ki je pravilna, kakor je [govoril] moj služabnik Job.
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.”
Zatorej si vzemite k sebi sedem bikcev in sedem ovnov in pojdite k mojemu služabniku Jobu in zase darujte žgalno daritev, moj služabnik Job pa bo molil za vas, kajti njega bom sprejel, da ne bom z vami postopal po vaši neumnosti, v tem, da niste govorili o meni besede, ki je pravilna, kakor moj služabnik Job.«
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.
Tako so Elifáz Temánec, Bildád Suhéjec in Cofár Naámčan odšli in storili glede na to, kakor jim je Gospod zapovedal, Gospod pa je sprejel Joba.
10 After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his prosperity and doubled his former possessions.
Gospod je obrnil Jobovo ujetništvo, ko je molil za svoje prijatelje. Gospod je dal Jobu tudi dvakrat toliko, kot je imel poprej.
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.
Potem so prišli k njemu vsi njegovi bratje in vse njegove sestre in vsi, ki so bili poprej izmed njegovih znancev in so v njegovi hiši z njim jedli kruh. Sočustvovali so in ga tolažili glede vsega zla, ki ga je Gospod privedel nadenj. Prav tako mu je vsak človek dal kos denarja in vsakdo uhan iz zlata.
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.
Tako je Gospod bolj blagoslovil Jobov poznejši konec kakor njegov začetek, kajti imel je štirinajst tisoč ovc, šest tisoč kamel, tisoč jarmov volov in tisoč oslic.
13 And he also had seven sons and three daughters.
Imel je tudi sedem sinov in tri hčere.
14 He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch.
Ime prve je imenoval Golobica, ime druge Dišavka in ime tretje Lepotica.
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.
Po vsej deželi ni bilo najti tako lepih žensk kakor Jobove hčere in njihov oče jim je dal dediščino med njihovimi brati.
16 After this, Job lived 140 years and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation.
Potem je Job živel sto štirideset let in videl svoje sinove in svojih sinov sinove, celó štiri rodove.
17 And so Job died, old and full of years.
Tako je Job umrl, star in izpolnjen z dnevi.
