Jòb 42
1 Men sa Jòb reponn Seyè a:
Then Job replied to the LORD:
2 -Mwen konnen, Seyè, ou gen tout pouvwa. W'ap fè tou sa ou mete nan tèt ou pou ou fè.
“I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted.
3 Ou mande kisa mwen ye menm pou m'ap poze keksyon sou plan travay ou, ak yon bann diskou ki pa vle di anyen. Mwen te louvri bouch mwen pale sou sa m' pa konprann, sou bèl bagay ki twò fò pou mwen.
You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.
4 Ou te mande m' pou m' koute sa w'ap di m', pou m' pare pou m' reponn ou.
You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform Me.’
5 Sa m' te konn sou ou a, se sa lòt moun te di m' ase. Koulye a, mwen wè ou ak je mwen.
My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.
6 Se konsa, mwen wete tou sa mwen te di. Mwen kouche sou sann ak nan pousyè, m'ap mande padon.
Therefore I retract my words, and I repent in dust and ashes.”
7 Lè Seyè a fin pale konsa ak Jòb, li pale ak Elifaz, moun lavil Teman an. Li di l' konsa: -Mwen te fache sou ou ak sou de zanmi ou yo, paske sa nou di sou mwen an pa vre menm. Nou pa t' pale tankou Jòb, sèvitè m' lan.
After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and your two friends. For you have not spoken about Me accurately, as My servant Job has.
8 Atòkile, men sa pou nou fè: Pran sèt towo bèf ak sèt belye mouton. Al jwenn Jòb ak yo. N'a ofri yo pou nou, n'a boule yo nèt. Jòb li menm va lapriyè pou nou. M'a reponn li. Konsa, m'a fè pa nou. Mwen p'ap pini nou deske nou pa t' pale byen sou mwen, jan Jòb, sèvitè m' lan, te fè l' la.
So now, take seven bulls and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and sacrifice a burnt offering for yourselves. Then My servant Job will pray for you, for I will accept his prayer and not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken accurately about Me, as My servant Job has.”
9 Elifaz, moun lavil Teman an, Bildad, moun lavil Chwa a, ak Sofa, moun lavil Naama a, al fè tou sa Seyè a te di yo fè a. Seyè a fè tou sa Jòb te mande l' nan lapriyè a.
So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD had told them; and the LORD accepted Job’s request.
10 Apre Jòb te fin lapriyè pou twa zanmi l' yo, Seyè a mete l' kanpe ankò. Tout zafè l' vin mache byen ankò. Lèfini, Seyè a ba li de fwa lavalè tou sa li te genyen anvan an.
After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his prosperity and doubled his former possessions.
11 Tout frè ak sè l' yo ansanm ak tout ansyen zanmi l' yo vin wè li. Yo fè fèt avè l' lakay li. Yo fè l' konnen jan sa te fè kè yo mal pou li pou tout malè sa yo Seyè a te voye sou li. Yo fè l' pran kouraj. Yo chak yo fè l' kado yon pyès ajan ak yon bag lò.
All his brothers and sisters and prior acquaintances came and dined with him in his house. They consoled him and comforted him over all the adversity that the LORD had brought upon him. And each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring.
12 Apre sa, Seyè a te beni Jòb plis pase jan li te fè l' anvan an. Jòb te vin genyen katòzmil (14.000) mouton, simil (6.000) chamo, demil (2.000) tèt bèf ak mil (1000) manman bourik.
So the LORD blessed Job’s latter days more than his first. He owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
13 Li fè sèt pitit gason ak twa pitit fi.
And he also had seven sons and three daughters.
14 Li rele pi gran pitit fi a Jemina, dezyèm lan Kesya, twazyèm lan Kerèn apouk.
He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch.
15 Nan tout peyi a pa t' gen pi bèl fanm pase twa pitit fi Jòb yo. Papa a te ba yo chak yon pòsyon nan byen l' yo ansanm ak frè yo.
No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters could be found in all the land, and their father granted them an inheritance among their brothers.
16 Apre sa, Jòb viv jouk li rive gen sankarantan sou tèt li. Li wè pitit pitit li yo ak pitit pitit pitit li yo, jouk rive sou kat jenerasyon.
After this, Job lived 140 years and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation.
17 Lè li mouri, li te fin vye granmoun, li te viv kont li.
And so Job died, old and full of years.
