Jòb 2
1 Yon jou tout zanj Bondye yo te reyini devan Seyè a, Satan vini tou nan mitan yo.
And on a day the children of God came and stood before the Lord, and Satan came also among them, and stoode before the Lord.
2 Seyè a mande l': -Kote ou soti? Satan reponn: -Mwen sot moute desann toupatou sou latè, mwen t'ap pwonmennen gade.
Then the Lord sayde vnto Satan, Whence commest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, and sayd, From compassing the earth to and from, and from walking in it.
3 Seyè a di Satan konsa: -Eske ou te wè Jòb, sèvitè m' lan? Pa gen tankou l' sou tout latè. Se yon nonm san repwòch ki mache dwat nan tou sa l'ap fè. Li gen krentif pou Bondye, li toujou ap chache fè sa ki byen. Se koulye a li kenbe m'. Ou wè se pou gremesi ou t'ap pouse m' pou m' te fini avè l'.
And the Lord sayd vnto Satan, Hast thou not considered my seruant Iob, how none is like him in the earth? an vpright and iust man, one that feareth God, and escheweth euill? for yet he continueth in his vprightnesse, although thou mouedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
4 Satan reponn li: -Lavi miyò pase byen! Yon moun va bay tou sa li genyen pou l' pa mouri.
And Satan answered the Lord, and sayde, Skin for skin, and all that euer a man hath, will he giue for his life.
5 Men, si ou manyen kò pa l' menm, ou mèt sèten fwa sa a, l'ap di sa li pa t' dwe di sou ou nan figi ou.
But stretch now out thine hand, and touch his bones and his flesh, to see if he will not blaspheme thee to thy face.
6 Seyè a di Satan konsa: -Ou mèt fè sa ou vle avè l'. Men, pa touye l' pou mwen.
Then the Lord said vnto Satan, Lo, he is in thine hand, but saue his life.
7 Lamenm, Satan vire do l', li ale. Li fè gwo bouton pete sou tout kò Jòb, depi anba pla pye l' jouk nan po tèt li.
So Satan departed from the presence of the Lord, and smote Iob with sore boyles, from the sole of his foote vnto his crowne.
8 Lè sa a, Jòb soti, li al chita nan pil sann kote yo boule fatra. Li pran yon moso krich kraze pou grate kò l'.
And he tooke a potsharde to scrape him, and he sate downe among the ashes.
9 Madanm li di l' konsa: -Ou nan kenbe pye Bondye fèm toujou? Joure l' byen joure, epi mouri mouri ou kont fini!
Then said his wife vnto him, Doest thou continue yet in thine vprightnes? Blaspheme God, and dye.
10 Jòb di li: -Pe bouch ou la, madanm! W'ap pale tankou moun fou! Lè Bondye ban nou benediksyon, nou kontan. Atò poukisa pou nou plenyen lè li voye malè sou nou? Malgre tou sa ki te rive l', Jòb pa t' kite ankenn move pawòl soti nan bouch li pou li fè peche kont Bondye.
But he said vnto her, Thou speakest like a foolish woman: what? shall we receiue good at the hande of God, and not receiue euill? In all this did not Iob sinne with his lippes.
11 Twa nan zanmi Jòb yo vin konnen tout malè ki te tonbe sou li. Yo kite peyi yo, yo vin wè Job. Se te Elifaz, moun Teman, Bildad, moun Chwak, epi Sofa, moun Naama. Yo fè lide vin ansanm pou plenn sò li epi pou ba li kouraj.
Nowe when Iobs three friends heard of all this euill that was come vpon him, they came euery one from his owne place, to wit, Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they were agreed together to come to lament with him, and to comfort him.
12 Yo te yon bèl ti distans toujou lè yo wè Jòb. Yo pa t' rekonèt li. Lè yo rekonèt li, dlo vin nan je yo, yo konmanse rele, yo kriye. Yo chire rad sou yo, yo voye pousyè tè sou tèt yo tèlman sa te fè yo lapenn.
So when they lift vp their eyes a farre off, they knewe him not: therefore they lift vp their voyces and wept, and euery one of them rent his garment, and sprinkled dust vpon their heads toward the heauen.
13 Apre sa, yo chita atè a bò kot Jòb pandan sèt jou sèt nwit san di yon mo, paske yo te wè jan l'ap soufri.
So they sate by him vpon the ground seuen dayes, and seuen nights, and none spake a worde vnto him: for they sawe, that the griefe was very great.
