Job 42
1 Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
A Job ovako odgovori Jahvi:
2 I know that thou canst do every [thing], and [that] no thought can be withheld from thee.
“Ja znadem, moć je tvoja bezgranična: što god naumiš, to izvesti možeš.
3 Who [is] he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that which I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
Tko je taj koji riječima bezumnim zamračuje božanski promisao? Govorah stoga, ali ne razumjeh, o čudesima meni neshvatljivim.
4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will ask of thee, and declare thou to me.
O, poslušaj me, pusti me da zborim: ja ću te pitat', a ti me pouči.
5 I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now my eye seeth thee.
Po čuvenju tek poznavah te dosad, ali sada te oči moje vidješe.
6 Wherefore I abhor [myself], and repent in dust and ashes.
Sve riječi svoje zato ja poričem i kajem se u prahu i pepelu.”
7 And it was [so], that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me [the thing that is] right, as my servant Job [hath].
Kada Jahve izgovori Jobu ove riječi, reče on Elifazu Temancu: “Ti i tvoja dva prijatelja raspalili ste gnjev moj jer niste o meni onako pravo govorili kao moj sluga Job.
8 Therefore take to you now 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 him will I accept: lest I deal with you [after your] folly, in that ye have not spoken of me [the thing which is] right, like my servant Job.
Zato uzmite sada sedam junaca i sedam ovnova i pođite k mome sluzi Jobu, pa prinesite za sebe paljenicu, a sluga moj Job molit će se za vas. Imat ću obzira prema njemu i neću vam učiniti ništa nažao zato što niste o meni onako pravo govorili kao moj sluga Job.”
9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite [and] Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them: the LORD also accepted Job.
Tada odoše Elifaz iz Temana, Bildad iz Šuaha i Sofar iz Naamata i učiniše kako im je Jahve zapovjedio. I Jahve se obazre na Joba.
10 And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
I Jahve vrati Joba u prijašnje stanje jer se založio za svoje prijatelje, pa mu još udvostruči ono što je posjedovao.
11 Then came there to him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and ate bread with him in his house: and they condoled with him, and comforted him over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an ear-ring of gold.
Tad se vratiše Jobu sva njegova braća, i sve njegove sestre, i svi prijašnji znanci te su jeli s njim kruh u njegovoj kući, žaleći ga i tješeći zbog svih nevolja što ih Jahve bijaše na nj poslao. Svaki mu darova po jedan srebrnik i po jedan zlatan prsten.
12 So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
Jahve blagoslovi novo Jobovo stanje još više negoli prijašnje. Blago mu je brojilo četrnaest tisuća ovaca, šest tisuća deva, tisuću jarmova volova i tisuću magarica.
13 He had also seven sons, and three daughters.
Imao je sedam sinova i tri kćeri.
14 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
Prvoj nadjenu ime Jemima, drugoj Kasija, a trećoj Keren-Hapuk.
15 And in all the land were no women found [so] fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
U svem onom kraju ne bijaše žena tako lijepih kao Jobove kćeri. I otac im dade jednaku baštinu kao i njihovoj braći.
16 After this Job lived a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, [even] four generations.
Poslije toga Job doživje dob od sto četrdeset godina i vidje djecu svoju i djecu svoje djece do četvrtog koljena.
17 So Job died, [being] old and full of days.
Potom umrije Job, star, nauživši se života.
