Hiob 42
1 Tete Hiob ɖo eŋu na Yehowa be:
Then answered Job unto the Lord, and said,
2 “Azɔ menya be àte ŋu awɔ nu sia nu, ame aɖeke mate ŋu agblẽ wò ɖoɖowo me o.
I acknowledge that thou art able to do every thing, and that no deep plan of thine can be restrained.
3 Èbia be, ‘Ame kae nye esi tsyɔ nu nye aɖaŋudede dzi numanyamanyatɔe?’ Nyateƒee, meƒo nu le nu siwo nyemenya o la ŋuti, nu siwo goglo akpa na nye nyanya.
Who is he that dareth to conceal [thy] counsel without knowledge? Truly I have spoken of what I understood not, of things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4 “Ègblɔ be, ‘Ɖo to azɔ, ne maƒo nu, ne mabia gbe wò, ne nàɖo eŋu nam.’
Oh do but hear [me], and I will indeed speak: I will ask of thee, and do thou inform me.
5 Nye towo se nya le ŋuwò, ke azɔ la, nye ŋkuwo kpɔ wò
I had only heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; but now my eye hath seen thee.
6 eya ta nu siwo katã megblɔ la kpe ŋu nam eye megbe wo le ke kple afi me.”
Therefore I reject [what I have said], and repent; because I am dust and ashes.
7 Esi Yehowa gblɔ nya siawo na Hiob vɔ la, egblɔ na Temanitɔ, Elifaz be, “Medo dɔmedzoe ɖe mia kple xɔ̃wò eveawo ŋu elabena miegblɔ nu si le eteƒe la tso ŋutinye abe nye dɔla Hiob ene o
And it came to pass, after the Lord had spoken these words unto Job, that the Lord said to Eliphaz the Themanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; because ye have not spoken of me properly, like my servant Job.
8 eya ta azɔ mitsɔ nyitsu adre kple agbo adre, ne miayi ɖe nye dɔla Hiob gbɔ eye miasa numevɔ na mia ɖokuiwo. Nye dɔla Hiob ado gbe ɖa ɖe mia ta, mase eƒe gbedodoɖa eye nyemaɖo miaƒe bometsinuwo teƒe na mi o elabena mieƒo nu nyui tso ŋutinye abe nye dɔla Hiob ene o.”
And now take unto yourselves seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up a burnt-offering in your behalf; and my servant Job shall pray for you; for him alone will I receive favorably, so as not to deal with you after your folly; because ye have not spoken of me properly, like my servant Job.
9 Ale Temanitɔ, Elifaz, Suhitɔ, Bildad kple Naamatitɔ, Zofar wɔ abe ale si Yehowa de see na wo ene eye Yehowa xɔ Hiob ƒe gbe si wòdo ɖa ɖe wo ta.
Then went Eliphaz the Themanite and Bildad the Shuchite and Zophar the Na'amathite, and did in accordance with what the Lord had spoken to them: and the Lord received Job in favor.
10 Esi Hiob do gbe ɖa ɖe exɔlɔ̃awo ta vɔ la, Yehowa gawɔe kesinɔtɔe abe tsã ene eye wòdzi eƒe kesinɔnuwo ɖe edzi nɛ zi eve wu tsã.
And the Lord brought back the captivity of Job, when he prayed in behalf of his friends; and the Lord increased all that Job had had twofold.
11 Nɔviŋutsuwo kple nɔvia nyɔnuwo katã kple eƒe ame nyanyɛwo katã va egbɔ eye woɖu nu kplii le eƒe aƒe me. Wofa akɔ nɛ, hede dzi ƒo nɛ ɖe dzɔgbevɔ̃e siwo Yehowa he va edzii la ta eye wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe na klosaloga kple sikasigɛe.
And then came unto him all his brothers, and all his sisters, and all that had been of his acquaintance before, and ate bread with him in his house; and they condoled with him, and comforted him for all the evil that the Lord had brought upon him; and they gave him, every one, a kessitah, and every one an earring of gold.
12 Yehowa yra Hiob fifia wu tsã. Alẽ akpe wuiene, kposɔ akpe ade, agbleŋlɔnyi eve, eve teƒe akpe ɖeka kple tedzi akpe ɖeka nɔ esi.
And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 Viŋutsu adre kple vinyɔnu etɔ̃ hã nɔ esi.
He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14 Ena ŋkɔ nyɔnuvi gbãtɔ be, Yemima, evelia be, Kezia eye etɔ̃lia be Keren Hapuk.
And he called the name of the first Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
15 Womegakpɔ nyɔnu aɖeke le anyigba blibo la dzi wòdze tugbe de Hiob ƒe vinyɔnuwo nu o. Wo fofo na domenyinu wo ɖe wo nɔviŋutsuwo xa.
And there were not found such handsome women as the daughters of Job in all the land; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
16 Le esia megbe la, Hiob nɔ agbe ƒe alafa ɖeka kple blaene eye wòkpɔ viawo kple woƒe viwo ƒe dzidzime ene sɔŋ.
And Job lived after this one hundred and forty years: and he saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
17 Ale Hiob tsi, nɔ agbe wòde edeƒe hafi ku.
Then died Job, being old and full of days.
