Job 42
1 Then Job answered Yahweh:
Entonces Job respondió a Yavé:
2 “I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.
Reconozco que todo lo puedes, y que ningún propósito tuyo te puede ser estorbado.
3 You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’ therefore I have uttered that which I didn’t understand, things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know.
¿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 You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’
Escúchame, te ruego, y hablaré. Te preguntaré, y Tú me enseñarás:
5 I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.
De oídas te oí, pero ahora cuando mis ojos te miran,
6 Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”
me aborrezco, me arrepiento y me echo en polvo y ceniza.
7 It was so, that after Yahweh had spoken these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
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 Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.”
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 what Yahweh commanded them, and Yahweh accepted Job.
Elifaz temanita, Bildad sujita y Sofar naamatita fueron e hicieron como Yavé les ordenó. Y Yavé levantó el rostro de Job.
10 Yahweh restored Job’s prosperity when he prayed for his friends. Yahweh gave Job 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 all his brothers, all his sisters, and all those who had been of his acquaintance before, came to him and ate bread with him in his house. They comforted him, and consoled him concerning all the evil that Yahweh had brought on him. Everyone also gave him a piece of money, and everyone 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 So Yahweh blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.
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 He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.
A la primera llamó Jemima, a la segunda Casia y a la tercera, Keren-hapuc.
15 In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
En toda la tierra no había mujeres tan hermosas como las hijas de Job, y su padre les dio herencia entre sus hermanos.
16 After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, to four generations.
Después de estas cosas, Job vivió 140 años, y vio a sus hijos y a sus nietos hasta la cuarta generación.
17 So Job died, being old and full of days.
Murió anciano y lleno de días.
