Job 42
1 Then Job replied to Yahweh. [He said],
Ningĩ Ayubu agĩcookeria Jehova, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ:
2 “I know that you can do everything and that no one can stop you from doing what you want to do.
“Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ wahota gwĩka maũndũ mothe; gũtirĩ mũbango waku ũngĩgirĩrĩka.
3 [You asked me], ‘(Who are you, who by speaking ignorantly, question what I plan to do?/You have no right to question what I plan to do by speaking ignorantly.)’ [RHQ] It is true that I spoke about things that I did not understand, things that are very wonderful/marvelous, and therefore I am not able to know them.
Nĩworirie atĩrĩ, ‘Nũũ ũyũ ũrahithania kĩrĩra gĩakwa nĩ kwaga ũmenyo?’ Ti-itherũ ndaaririe maũndũ itaamenyete, maũndũ ma magegania itangĩmenya.
4 You said to me, ‘Listen while I talk to you. I want to ask you some questions, so prepare yourself to answer them.’
“Woigire atĩrĩ, ‘Thikĩrĩria rĩu, na niĩ njarie; nĩngũkũũria ciũria, nawe nĩũkũnjookeria.’
5 I had heard about you previously, but now [it is as though] I have seen you with my own eyes.
Matũ makwa nĩmaiguĩte ũhoro waku no rĩu maitho makwa nĩgũkuona makuonete.
6 Therefore I (am ashamed of/withdraw) what I said, and I sit in dust and ashes to show that I am sorry [for what I said].”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngwĩmena niĩ mwene, na ndĩrire, ndĩhurĩrie rũkũngũ na mũhu.”
7 After Yahweh said these things to Job, he said to Eliphaz, “I am angry with you and your two friends, [Bildad and Zophar], because what my servant Job said about me was right/true, but what you have spoken about me was not right/true.
Thuutha wa Jehova kwĩra Ayubu maũndũ macio-rĩ, nĩerire Elifazu ũrĩa Mũtemaani atĩrĩ, “Nĩndakarĩtio nĩwe na arata aku eerĩ, tondũ mũtiarĩtie ũhoro wakwa ũrĩa wagĩrĩire, ta ũrĩa ndungata yakwa Ayubu ĩĩkĩte.
8 So now you must take to Job seven young bulls and seven rams and [kill them and] burn them on the altar as a sacrifice for yourselves. Then Job will pray for you, and I will do what he requests me to do, [and I will forgive you for speaking wrongly about me]. I will not punish you, even though you deserve to be punished, because what you said about me was not right/true, but what Job said about me was right/true.”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, rĩu oyai ndegwa mũgwanja na ndũrũme mũgwanja, mũthiĩ kũrĩ ndungata yakwa Ayubu, mũkarute igongona rĩa njino nĩ ũndũ wanyu inyuĩ ene. Ndungata yakwa Ayubu nĩĩkamũhoera, na niĩ nĩngetĩkĩra mahooya make, na ndikamwĩka kũringana na ũrimũ wanyu. Mũtiarĩtie ũhoro wakwa ũrĩa wagĩrĩire ta ũrĩa ndungata yakwa Ayubu ĩĩkĩte.”
9 So Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar did what Yahweh commanded them to do, and Yahweh did what Job requested him to do [for the three of them].
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Elifazu ũrĩa Mũtemaani, na Bilidadi ũrĩa Mũshuhi, na Zofaru ũrĩa Mũnaamathi magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehova aameerire; nake Jehova nĩetĩkĩrire ihooya rĩa Ayubu.
10 After Job prayed for his three friends, Yahweh [healed him and] caused him to become rich again. Yahweh gave him twice as many things as he had before.
Thuutha wa Ayubu kũhoera arata ake-rĩ, Jehova nĩamũcookeirie ũtonga wake na akĩmũhe maita meerĩ ma indo iria aarĩ nacio mbere.
11 Then all his brothers and sisters, and all the people who had known him before, came to his house, and they ate a meal together. They consoled/comforted [DOU] him because of all the troubles that Yahweh had allowed him to experience.
Ariũ na aarĩ a nyina othe, na mũndũ o wothe wamũũĩ mbere, magĩũka makĩrĩĩanĩra nake mũciĩ gwake, nao makĩmũhooreria na makĩmũcakaithia nĩ ũndũ wa mathĩĩna marĩa mothe Jehova aamũreheire. Andũ acio o mũndũ akĩmũhe gĩcunjĩ kĩa betha na gĩcũhĩ gĩa thahabu.
12 Then Yahweh blessed Job in the second half of his life more than he had blessed him in the first half of his life. He now acquired/owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 2,000 oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
Jehova nĩarathimire matukũ ma mũthia ma muoyo wa Ayubu gũkĩra marĩa ma mbere. Nĩaagĩire na ngʼondu 14,000, na ngamĩĩra 6,000, na ndegwa cia kuohwo macooki 1,000, na ndigiri 1,000.
13 And he also had seven [more] sons and three [more] daughters.
Nĩacookire akĩgĩa na aanake mũgwanja na airĩtu atatũ.
14 He named the first daughter Jemimah, he named the second daughter Keziah, and he named the third daughter Keren-Happuch.
Mwarĩ wa mbere aamũtuire Jemima, na wa keerĩ aamũtuire Kezia, nake wa gatatũ akĩmũtua Kereni-Hapuku.
15 In all of [Uz] land there were no young women who were as beautiful as the daughters of Job, and Job declared that they would inherit some of his possessions, just like their brothers would inherit some.
Gũtirĩ handũ o na ha bũrũri-inĩ wothe hangĩonekire andũ-a-nja athaka ta airĩtu a Ayubu, nake ithe wao akĩmahe igai hamwe na ariũ a nyina.
16 After that, Job lived 140 more years. Before he died, he (saw/enjoyed being with) his great-great-grandchildren.
Thuutha wa maũndũ macio-rĩ, Ayubu nĩatũũrire mĩaka igana rĩa mĩrongo ĩna; akĩona ciana ciake na akĩona ciana ciacio, nginya rũciaro rwa kana.
17 He was very old [DOU] when he died.
Nake agĩkua arĩ mũkũrũ, na arĩ na mĩaka mĩingĩ.
