Jòb 42

1 Job te reponn SENYÈ a. Li te di:

Then Job answered the LORD:

2 “Mwen konnen ke Ou ka fè tout bagay, e ke nanpwen volonte Ou ki kab detounen.

“I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.

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.

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.

4 Ou te di: ‘Koute Mwen, e Mwen va pale; Mwen va mande Ou, e Ou va enstwi Mwen.’

You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’

5 “Konsa, Mwen te kon tande de Ou nan zòrèy mwen yo, men koulye a, zye m wè Ou.

I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, 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 abhor myself, and repent in dust 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.

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.

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.”

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.”

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 Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the LORD commanded them, and the LORD accepted 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.

The LORD restored Job’s prosperity when he prayed for his friends. The LORD gave 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.

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.

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.

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.

13 Li te gen sèt fis ak twa fi.

He had also seven sons and three daughters.

14 Li te rele premye a Jemima, dezyèm nan Ketsia, twazyèm nan Kéren-Happuc.

He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.

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.

In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance amongst 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.

After this Job lived one hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, to four generations.

17 Konsa, Job te mouri, granmoun e plen ak jou.

So Job died, being old and full of days.
