< Job 42 >

1 Then Job answered and said to the Lord,
Ary Joba dia namaly an’ i Jehovah ka nanao hoe:
2 I know that thou canst do all things, and nothing is impossible with thee.
Fantatro fa hainao avokoa ny zavatra rehetra, ary tsy azo ferana ny fisainanao.
3 For who is he that hides counsel from thee? or who keeps back his words, and thinks to hide them from thee? and who will tell me what I knew not, great and wonderful things which I understood not?
Iza no mahatakona ny fisainanao amin’ ny tsi-fahalalana? Koa dia nilaza izay tsy fantatro aho, dia zava-mahagaga loatra amiko, izay tsy takatry ny saiko.
4 But hear me, O Lord, that I also may speak: and I will ask thee, and do thou teach me.
Mifona aminao aho, mihainoa, fa hiteny aho; Hanontany Anao aho, ka ampahafantaro.
5 I have heard the report of thee by the ear before; but now mine eye has seen thee.
Fandrenesan’ ny sofina ihany no nandrenesako Anao; Fa ankehitriny izao kosa dia ny masoko no mahita Anao;
6 Wherefore I have counted myself vile, and have fainted: and I esteem myself dust and ashes.
Koa dia miaiky sy mibebaka Eto amin’ ny vovoka sy ny lavenona aho.
7 And it came to pass after the Lord had spoken all these words to Job, [that] the Lord said to Eliphaz the Thaemanite, Thou hast sinned, and thy two friends: for ye have not said anything true before me, as my servant Job [has].
Ary rehefa voalazan’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Joba izany teny izany, dia hoy koa Izy tamin’ i Elifaza Temanita: Mirehitra aminao sy ny sakaizanao roa lahy ny fahatezerako satria tsy mba marina tahaka ny filàzan’ i Joba mpanompoko ny filàzanareo Ahy.
8 Now then take seven bullocks, and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and he shall offer a burnt-offering for you. And my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will only accept him: for but his sake, I would have destroyed you, for ye have not spoken the truth against my servant Job.
Koa ankehitriny makà vantotr’ ombilahy fito sy ondrilahy fito ho anareo, ary mankanesa ao amin’ i Joba mpanompoko, ka manatera fanatitra dorana ho anareo; ary Joba mpanompoko no hifona ho anareo, fa izy no hankasitrahako, fandrao hamaly anareo araka ny fahadalanareo Aho, satria tsy marina tahaka ny filàzan’ i Joba mpanompoko ny filàzanareo Ahy.
9 So Eliphaz the Thaemanite, and Baldad the Sauchite, and Sophar the Minaean, went and did as the Lord commanded them: and he pardoned their sin for the sake of Job.
Dia nandeha Elifaza Temanita sy Bildada Sohita ary Zofara Namatita ka nanao araka izay nandidian’ i Jehovah azy; ary Jehovah dia nankasitraka an’ i Joba.
10 And the Lord prospered Job: and when he prayed also for his friends, he forgave them [their] sin: and the Lord gave Job twice as much, even the double of what he had before.
Ary Jehovah nampody ny fiadanan’ i Joba, raha nivavaka ho an’ ny sakaizany izy, ka dia nanome azy indroa toraka izay nananany fahiny Izy.
11 And all his brethren and his sisters heard all that had happened to him, and they came to him, and [so did] all that had known him from the first: and they ate and drank with him, and comforted him, and wondered at all that the Lord had brought upon him: and each one gave him a lamb, and four drachms' weight of gold, even of unstamped [gold].
Dia avy ny rahalahiny rehetra sy ny anabaviny rehetra ary ny olona rehetra izay fantany fahiny ka nankao aminy ary niara-nihinana taminy tao an-tranony ary nitsapa alahelo sady nampionona azy noho ny fahoriana rehetra izay efa nahatran’ i Jehovah taminy; ary samy nanome azy vakim-bola iray avy sy kavim-bolamena iray avy izy rehetra.
12 And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job, [more] than the beginning: and his cattle were fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, a thousand she-asses of the pastures.
Ary Jehovah nitahy ny niafaran’ i Joba mihoatra noho ny voalohany ka nanana ondry aman’ osy efatra arivo amby iray alina sy rameva enina arivo sy omby roa arivo ary borikivavy arivo izy.
13 And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
Ary nanan-janaka fito lahy sy vavy telo koa izy,
14 And he called the first Day, and the second Casia, and the third Amalthaea's horn.
ka ny anaran’ ny zokiny nataony hoe Jemima, ary ny anaran’ ny manarakaraka Kezia, ary ny anaran’ ny faravavy Kerena-hapoka.
15 And there were not found in comparison with the daughters of Job, fairer [women] than they in all the world: and their father gave them an inheritance among their brethren.
Ary tsy nisy vehivavy tsara tarehy tahaka ny zanakavavin’ i Joba hita tany amin’ ny tany rehetra, ary niara-nomen-drainy lova tamin’ ny anadahiny izy.
16 And Job lived after [his] affliction a hundred and seventy years: and all the years he lived were two hundred and forty: and Job saw his sons and his sons' sons, the fourth generation.
Ary mbola velona efa-polo amby zato taona Joba taorian’ izany ka nahita ny zananilahy sy ny zafiny ka hatramin’ ny zafin-dohaliny aza.
17 And Job died, an old man and full of days.
Dia maty Joba, rehefa tratrantitra ka ela niainana.
