Job 42
1 Then Job answered Jehovah, and said:
Entonces Job respondió a Yavé:
2 I know that thou canst do every thing, And that no purpose of thine can be hindered.
Reconozco que todo lo puedes, y que ningún propósito tuyo te puede ser estorbado.
3 Who is he that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Thus have I uttered what I understood not; Things too wonderful for me, which I knew not:
¿Quién es el que oscurece el consejo sin entendimiento? ¡Yo! Porque hablaba lo que no entendía, cosas demasiado maravillosas para mí que no entendía.
4 Hear thou, then, I beseech thee, and I will speak! I will ask thee, and do thou instruct me!
Escúchame, te ruego, y hablaré. Te preguntaré, y Tú me enseñarás:
5 I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now hath mine eye seen thee.
De oídas te oí, pero ahora cuando mis ojos te miran,
6 Wherefore I abhor myself, And repent in dust and ashes.
me aborrezco, me arrepiento y me echo en polvo y ceniza.
7 And when Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite: “My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken concerning me that which is right, as hath my servant Job.
Después que Yavé habló estas Palabras a Job, aconteció que Yavé dijo a Elifaz temanita: Mi ira se encendió contra ti y contra tus dos amigos, porque no hablaron lo recto de Mí, como mi esclavo Job.
8 Take ye, therefore, seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a burnt-offering, and my servant Job shall pray for you; for to him alone will I have regard; that I deal not with you according to your folly. For ye have not spoken concerning me that which is right, as hath my servant Job.”
Tomen, pues, siete becerros y siete carneros, y vayan a mi esclavo Job y ofrezcan holocausto por ustedes. Mi esclavo Job intercederá por ustedes, porque Yo levantaré su rostro, para no hacer con ustedes conforme a su insensatez, pues no hablaron de Mí lo recto, como mi esclavo Job.
9 So Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did as Jehovah commanded them; and Jehovah had regard to Job.
Elifaz temanita, Bildad sujita y Sofar naamatita fueron e hicieron como Yavé les ordenó. Y Yavé levantó el rostro de Job.
10 And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends, and Jehovah gave him twice as much as he had before.
Al orar por sus amigos, Yavé restauró a Job de su cautividad y aumentó al doble todo lo que poseyó.
11 Then came to him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all his former acquaintances, and ate bread with him in his house; and condoled with him, and comforted him over all the evil which Jehovah had brought upon him; and every one gave him a piece of money [[a kesita]], and every one a ring of gold.
Llegaron a él todos sus hermanos y hermanas, y todos sus antiguos conocidos. Comieron con él en su casa, y se condolieron de él. Lo consolaron por toda la desgracia que Yavé trajo sobre él. Y cada uno le dio una pieza de plata y un anillo de oro.
12 Thus Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than the beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
Yavé bendijo los últimos días de Job más que los primeros, porque tuvo 14.000 ovejas, 6.000 camellos, 1.000 yuntas de bueyes, 1.000 asnas,
13 He had also seven sons, and three daughters.
y siete hijos y tres hijas.
14 And he called the name of the first Jemima, of the second Kezia, and of the third Kerenhappuch.
A la primera llamó Jemima, a la segunda Casia y a la tercera, Keren-hapuc.
15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brethren.
En toda la tierra no había mujeres tan hermosas como las hijas de Job, y su padre les dio herencia entre sus hermanos.
16 And Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
Después de estas cosas, Job vivió 140 años, y vio a sus hijos y a sus nietos hasta la cuarta generación.
17 Then Job died, being old and satisfied with days.
Murió anciano y lleno de días.
