< Job 42 >

1 Then Job replied to Yahweh. [He said],
A no ra ko Hopa ki a Ihowa; i mea ia,
2 “I know that you can do everything and that no one can stop you from doing what you want to do.
E mohio ana ahau e taea e koe nga mea katoa, a e kore tetahi whakaaro ou e taea te pehi.
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.
Ko wai tenei e huna nei i te whakaaro, a kahore nei he matauranga? No reira korerotia ana e ahau he mea kihai i mohiotia e ahau, he mea whakamiharo rawa, e kore nei e taea e ahau, a kihai i mohiotia e ahau.
4 You said to me, ‘Listen while I talk to you. I want to ask you some questions, so prepare yourself to answer them.’
Tena ra, whakarongo, a ka korero ahau; ka ui ahau ki a koe, a mau e whakaatu mai ki ahau.
5 I had heard about you previously, but now [it is as though] I have seen you with my own eyes.
I rongo ahau ki a koe, he rongo na te taringa; tena ko tenei, ka kite a kanohi nei ahau i a koe,
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].”
Na whakarihariha ana ahau ki ahau ano, a ka ripeneta i roto i te puehu, i te pungarehu.
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.
Heoi i te mutunga o ta Ihowa korero i enei kupu ki a Hopa, na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Eripata Temani, Kua mura toku riri ki a koe, ki a koutou ko ou hoa tokorua: no te mea kihai koutou i korero i te mea tika moku, kihai i rite ki ta taku pononga, ki ta Hopa.
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.”
Na tikina etahi puru ma koutou kia whitu, kia whitu hoki nga hipi toa, a ka haere ki taku pononga, ki a Hopa, ka whakaeke ai i etahi tahunga tinana ma koutou; a ma taku pononga, ma Hopa, e inoi mo koutou; ka manako hoki ahau ki a ia, kia kore ai ahau e mea ki a koutou kia rite ki ta koutou mahi wairangi; kihai hoki koutou i korero i te mea tika moku, kihai i rite ki ta taku pononga, ki to Hopa.
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].
Heoi haere ana a Eripata Temani, a Pirirara Huhi, a Topara Naamati, a meatia ana e ratou ta Ihowa i korero ai ki a ratou. A ka manako a Ihowa ki a Hopa.
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.
A whakahokia ana a Hopa e Ihowa i te whakarau, i a ia i inoi ra mo ona hoa. Na, ko nga mea katoa i a Hopa i mua, whakanekehia ake ana e Ihowa kia pera atu ano te maha.
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.
Katahi ka haere mai ona tuakana, ona teina katoa, ratou ko ona tuahine katoa, me te hunga katoa i mohio ki a ia i mua, hei hoa mona, ki te kai taro i roto i tona whare: tangi ana ki a ia, whakamarie ana i a ia mo te he katoa i whakaekea nei e Ih owa ki a ia; a homai ana ki a ia e tenei, e tenei, tetahi moni me tetahi whakakai koura.
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.
Heoi manaakitia ana a Hopa e Ihowa i te whakamutunga, nui atu i to te timatanga; a kotahi tekau ma wha mano ana hipi, e ono mano nga kamera, kotahi mano topu nga kau, kotahi mano nga kaihe uha.
13 And he also had seven [more] sons and three [more] daughters.
Tokowhitu ano ana tama, tokotoru nga tamahine.
14 He named the first daughter Jemimah, he named the second daughter Keziah, and he named the third daughter Keren-Happuch.
A tapa iho e ia te ingoa o te tuatahi ko Hemaima, ko te ingoa o te tuarua ko Ketia, a ko te ingoa o te tuatoru ko Kerenehapuku.
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.
A kihai i kitea he wahine hei rite mo nga tamahine a Hopa te ataahua i te whenua katoa; a i hoatu hoki e to ratou papa he wahi mo ratou i waenganui i o ratou tungane.
16 After that, Job lived 140 more years. Before he died, he (saw/enjoyed being with) his great-great-grandchildren.
A i ora a Hopa i muri i tenei kotahi rau e wha tekau nga tau, i kite ano ia i ana tamariki, i nga tamariki ano hoki a ana tamariki, e wha nga whakatupuranga.
17 He was very old [DOU] when he died.
Heoi ka mate a Hopa, he koreheke, he maha hoki ona ra.
