Job 42
1 Then Job answered the LORD:
A Job ovako odgovori Jahvi:
2 “I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.
“Ja znadem, moć je tvoja bezgranična: što god naumiš, to izvesti možeš.
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.
Tko je taj koji riječima bezumnim zamračuje božanski promisao? Govorah stoga, ali ne razumjeh, o čudesima meni neshvatljivim.
4 You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’
O, poslušaj me, pusti me da zborim: ja ću te pitat', a ti me pouči.
5 I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.
Po čuvenju tek poznavah te dosad, ali sada te oči moje vidješe.
6 Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”
Sve riječi svoje zato ja poričem i kajem se u prahu i pepelu.”
7 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 you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
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 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.”
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 what the LORD commanded them, and the LORD 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 The LORD restored Job’s prosperity when he prayed for his friends. 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 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 the LORD had brought on him. Everyone also gave him a piece of money, and everyone a 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. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.
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 He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.
Prvoj nadjenu ime Jemima, drugoj Kasija, a trećoj Keren-Hapuk.
15 In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance amongst their brothers.
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 one hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, to 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.
