Job 2
1 On another day, the angels came again and gathered together in front of Yahweh, and Satan came too.
Nangyari uli na sa araw nang pagparoon ng mga anak ng Dios upang magsiharap sa Panginoon, na nakiparoon din si Satanas, upang humarap sa Panginoon.
2 Yahweh asked Satan, “Where have you come from?” Satan replied, “I have come from the earth, where I have been traveling back and forth, seeing what is happening.”
At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Satanas, Saan ka nanggaling? At si Satanas ay sumagot sa Panginoon, at nagsabi, Sa pagpaparoo't parito sa lupa, at sa pagmamanhik manaog doon.
3 Yahweh asked Satan, “Have you (noticed/thought about) my [faithful] servant Job? He is very godly/righteous [DOU], he greatly respects/reveres me, and he [always] avoids doing evil things. And he still acts in a very godly/righteous manner, even though you persuaded me to [let you] cause disastrous things to happen to him for no reason.”
At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Satanas, Iyo bang pinansin ang aking lingkod na si Job? sapagka't walang gaya niya sa lupa, na sakdal at matuwid na lalake, na natatakot sa Dios, at humihiwalay sa kasamaan: at siya'y namamalagi sa kaniyang pagtatapat, bagaman ako'y kinilos mo laban sa kaniya, upang ilugmok siya ng walang kadahilanan.
4 Satan replied to Yahweh, “He praises you only because you bless him [IDM]. People will give up everything they have to save their own lives.
At si Satanas ay sumagot sa Panginoon, at nagsabi, Balat kung balat, oo, lahat na tinatangkilik ng tao ay ibibigay dahil sa kaniyang buhay.
5 But if you harm his body [MTY], he will surely curse you openly [IDM]!”
Nguni't pagbuhatan mo ngayon ng iyong kamay, at galawin mo ang kaniyang buto at ang kaniyang laman, at kaniyang itatakuwil ka ng mukhaan.
6 Yahweh replied to Satan, “(All right/Okay), you may do to him whatever you want to do, but do not cause him to die.”
At ang Panginoon ay nagsabi kay Satanas, Narito, siya'y nasa iyong kamay; ingatan mo lamang ang kaniyang buhay.
7 So Satan left, and he caused Job to be afflicted with very painful boils, from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.
Sa gayo'y umalis si Satanas mula sa harapan ng Panginoon, at pinasibulan si Job ng mga masamang bukol na mula sa talampakan ng kaniyang paa hanggang sa kaniyang puyo.
8 Job took a piece of broken pottery and scraped the boils on his skin, and he sat in ashes [as people did when they were mourning for those who had died].
At kumuha siya ng isang bibinga ng palyok upang ipangkayod ng langib; at siya'y naupo sa mga abo.
9 His wife said to him, “Are you still trying to (be loyal to/faithfully trust in) God? You should curse God, and then you will die.”
Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng kaniyang asawa sa kaniya, Namamalagi ka pa ba sa iyong pagtatapat? itakuwil mo ang Dios, at mamatay ka.
10 But Job replied, “You talk like people who do not know God talk. (Should we accept only the good things that God [does for us]?/We should not accept only the good things that God [does for us].) [RHQ] We should also accept bad things.” So in spite of all these [things that happened to] Job, [he] did not say anything against God.
Nguni't sinabi niya sa kaniya, Ikaw ay nagsasalita na gaya ng pagsasalita ng hangal na babae. Ano? tatanggap ba tayo ng mabuti sa kamay ng Dios, at hindi tayo tatanggap ng masama? Sa lahat ng ito ay hindi nagkasala si Job ng kaniyang mga labi.
11 Among Job’s friends were Eliphaz from Teman [town], Bildad from Shuah [land] and Zophar from Naamah [land]. When they heard about all the terrible things that had happened to Job, they left their home areas and went together to Job to console/comfort him [DOU].
Nang mabalitaan nga ng tatlong kaibigan ni Job ang lahat na kasamaang ito na sumapit sa kaniya sila'y naparoon bawa't isa na mula sa kanikaniyang sariling pook, si Eliphaz na Temanita, at si Bildad na Suhita, at si Sophar na Naamathita: at sila'y nangagkaiisang loob na magsiparoon upang makidamay sa kaniya at aliwin siya.
12 When they saw Job from a distance, they almost did not recognize him. They wailed loudly, they tore their robes, and they threw dust over their heads [to show how sorry they were because of what had happened to Job].
At nang kanilang itanaw ang kanilang mga mata mula sa malayo, at hindi siya makilala, kanilang inilakas ang kanilang tinig, at nagsiiyak at hinapak ng bawa't isa sa kanila ang kanikaniyang balabal, at nagbuhos ng alabok sa kanilang mga ulo sa dakong langit.
13 Then they sat on the ground with Job for seven days. None of them said anything to Job, because they saw that he was suffering greatly, [and they did not think that anything that they said would lessen his pain].
Sa gayo'y nangakiumpok sila sa kaniya sa ibabaw ng lupa na pitong araw at pitong gabi, at walang nagsalita sa kaniya: sapagka't kanilang nakita na ang kaniyang paghihirap ay totoong malaki.
