Jòb 42
1 Job te reponn SENYÈ a. Li te di:
Then Job, responding to the Lord, said:
2 “Mwen konnen ke Ou ka fè tout bagay, e ke nanpwen volonte Ou ki kab detounen.
I know that you are able to do all things, and that no thoughts are hidden from you.
3 Ou te mande: ‘Kilès sila ki kache konsèy san konesans lan?’” “Konsa, mwen te deklare sa ke m pa t konprann nan; bagay twò etonnan pou mwen, ke m pa t konnen yo.
So, who is it that would disguise a lack of knowledge as counsel? Therefore, I have been speaking foolishly, about things whose measure exceeds my knowledge.
4 Ou te di: ‘Koute Mwen, e Mwen va pale; Mwen va mande Ou, e Ou va enstwi Mwen.’
Listen, and I will speak. I will question you, and you may answer me.
5 “Konsa, Mwen te kon tande de Ou nan zòrèy mwen yo, men koulye a, zye m wè Ou.
By paying attention with the ear, I have heard you, but now my eye sees you.
6 Pou tout sa a, mwen rayi pwop tèt mwen, e mwen repanti nan pousyè ak sann yo.”
Therefore, I find myself reprehensible, and I will do penance in embers and ashes.
7 Li te vin rive apre SENYÈ a te pale pawòl sa yo a Job, ke SENYÈ a te di a Éliphaz, Temanit lan: “Lakòlè mwen limen kont ou e kont de zanmi ou yo, akoz ou pa t pale selon Mwen sa ki dwat, tankou sèvitè Mwen Job te fè a.
But after the Lord had finished speaking these words to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Themanite: My wrath has been kindled against you, and against your two friends, because you have not been speaking correctly in my eyes, as my servant Job has done.
8 Alò, pou sa, pran pou nou menm sèt towo avèk sèt belye, rive kote sèvitè Mwen an Job, e ofri yon ofrann brile pou nou menm; epi sèvitè Mwen an, Job, va priye pou nou. Paske Mwen va aksepte li jis pou m pa aji avèk nou selon foli nou, akoz nou pa t pale selon Mwen sa ki bon, tankou sèvitè Mwen Job te fè a.”
Therefore, have seven bulls and seven rams brought to you, and go to my servant Job, and offer these as a holocaust for yourselves. But also, my servant Job will pray for you; I will accept his face, so that foolishness will not be imputed to you. For you have not been speaking correctly about me, as my servant Job has done.
9 Konsa, Éliphaz, Temanit lan avèk Bildad, Shouachyen an ak Tsophar, Naamatit la te ale fè sa ke SENYÈ a te di yo; epi SENYÈ a te aksepte Job.
So Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Zophar the Naamathite departed, and they did just as the Lord had spoken to them, and the Lord accepted the face of Job.
10 SENYÈ a te restore Job ak tout byen li ak pozisyon li lè l te priye pou zanmi li yo, e SENYÈ a te remèt tout sa li te genyen miltipliye de fwa anplis.
Likewise, the Lord was moved by the repentance of Job, when he prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave to Job twice as much as he had before.
11 Konsa, tout frè li yo ak sè li yo ak tout moun ki te konnen l oparavan yo te vin kote li, e yo te manje pen avèk li lakay li. Yo te rekonfòte li e konsole li akoz tout twoub ke SENYÈ a te mennen sou li yo. Epi yo chak te bay li yon pyès lajan ak yon bag an lò.
Yet all his brethren came to him, and all his sisters, and everyone who had known him before, and they ate bread with him in his house. They also shook their heads over him and comforted him, because of all the bad things that God had inflicted on him. And each one of them gave him one female sheep, and one earring of gold.
12 SENYÈ a te beni dènye jou a Job yo plis pase premye yo. Epi li te gen katòz-mil mouton ak si-mil chamo, ak mil bèf kabwèt ak mil femèl bourik.
And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job even more than his beginning. And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand pairs of oxen, and a thousand she-donkeys.
13 Li te gen sèt fis ak twa fi.
And he had seven sons and three daughters.
14 Li te rele premye a Jemima, dezyèm nan Ketsia, twazyèm nan Kéren-Happuc.
And he called the name of one, Daylight, and the name of the second, Cinnamon, and the name of the third, Horn of Cosmetics.
15 Nan tout peyi a, pa t gen fanm ki te bèl tankou fi a Job yo. Konsa, papa yo te bay yo yon eritaj pami frè yo.
And, in the whole world, there were not found women so beautiful as the daughters of Job. And so their father gave them an inheritance along with their brothers.
16 Apre sa, Job te viv pandan san-karant lane, e te wè fis li yo ak pitit a fis li yo, jis rive nan kat jenerasyon.
But Job lived long after these events, for a hundred and forty years, and he saw his children, and his children’s children, all the way to the fourth generation,
17 Konsa, Job te mouri, granmoun e plen ak jou.
and he died an old man and full of days.
