< Ioba 42 >
1 A LAILA olelo o Ioba ia Iehova, i aku la,
UJobe wasemphendula uThixo wathi:
2 Ua ike no au, e hiki no ia oe na mea a pau; Aohe manao ou e pono ke keakeaia.
“Ngiyazi ukuthi ungazenza zonke izinto; kalikho icebo lakho elingavinjwa.
3 Owai ka mea e hoopouli ana i ka olelo ao me ka ike ole? Nolaila, ua hai aku au, aole au i noonoo pono; Na mea kupanaha, aole au i ike.
Ubuzile wathi, ‘Ngubani lo ovala iseluleko sami engelalwazi na?’ Ngeqiniso ngikhulumile ngezinto ebengingazizwisisi, izinto ezimangalisayo engingeke ngizazi.
4 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe e hoolohe mai, a na'u e olelo aku; E ninau aku au ia oe, a e hoike mai oe ia'u.
Wena uthe, ‘Lalela manje, mina ngizakhuluma; ngizakubuza, wena uzangiphendula.’
5 Ua lohe au ia oe ma ka lohe pepeiao, Aka, ano, ke ike nei ko'u maka ia oe.
Indlebe zami zasezizwile ngawe kodwa manje amehlo ami asekubonile.
6 Nolaila ke hoowahawaha nei au ia'u iho, Ke mihi hoi au iloko o ka lepo a me ka lehu.
Ngakho sengizeyisa, sengiphenduka ngizilahla othulini lasemlotheni.”
7 A mahope o ka Iehova olelo ana'ku i keia mau olelo ia Ioba, olelo mai la o Iehova ia Elipaza, no Temana, Ua hoaia ko'u huhu ia oe, a i kau mau hoalauna elua: no ka mea, aole oukou i olelo mai no'u i ka mea pono, e like me ka'u kauwa, o Ioba.
Kwathi uThixo esetshilo lezizinto kuJobe wathi ku-Elifazi umThemani, “Ngikuzondele wena kanye labangane bakho bobabili, ngoba kalikhulumanga ngami okulungileyo njengenceku yami uJobe.
8 Ano hoi, e lawe oukou no oukou iho i ehiku bipikane, a i ehiku hipakane, a e hele aku i ka'u kauwa ia Ioba, a e kaumaha i mohaikuni no oukou; a e pule aku o Ioba ka'u kauwa no oukou; no ka mea, oia ka'u e maliu ai, o hana aku au ia oukou e like me ka oukou lapuwale; no ka mea, aole oukou i olelo mai no'u i ka mea pono e like me ka'u kauwa, o Ioba.
Ngakho manje thathani inkunzi eziyisikhombisa lenqama eziyisikhombisa liye encekwini yami uJobe liyekwenza umnikelo wenu wokutshiswa. Inceku yami uJobe izalikhulekela, mina ngizawamukela umkhuleko wayo ngingaze ngalijezisa okufanele ubuthutha benu. Kalikhulumanga ngami okulungileyo njengenceku yami uJobe.”
9 A o Elipaza no Temana, o Biledada no Suha, a me Zopara no Naama, hele aku la lakou, a hana aku e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia lakou: a maliu mai o Iehova ia Ioba.
Ngakho u-Elifazi umThemani, uBhilidadi umShuhi loZofari umNahama benza lokho abakutshelwa nguThixo; njalo uThixo wawemukela umkhuleko kaJobe.
10 A hoololi ae la o Iehova i ke pio ana o Ioba, i ka manawa i pule aku ai ia no kona mau hoalauna: a haawi palua aku la o Iehova i ka Ioba mau mea a pau.
UJobe esebakhulekele abangane bakhe, uThixo wamenza waphumelela njalo wamupha okunengi okuphindwe kabili kulokho ayelakho kuqala.
11 Alaila hele mai io Ioba la kona mau hoahanau a pau, a me kona mau kaikuwahine a pau, a me kona poe ike a pau mamua, a ai pu iho la lakou me ia i ka ai ma kona hale; a uwe lakou ia ia, a hooluolu aku ia ia no na mea ino a pau a Iehova i lawe mai ai maluna ona; a haawi aku kela kanaka keia kanaka ia ia i wahi kala, a o kela kanaka keia kanaka i wahi apo gula.
Bonke abafowabo labodadewabo kanye lobani owayemazi ngaphambili weza ukuzakudla laye endlini yakhe. Bamkhalela, bamzwela ngakho konke ukuhlupheka uThixo ayemehlisele khona, kwathi ngulowo lalowo wamupha ulutho lwesiliva kanye lesongo legolide.
12 A hoomaikai o Iehova i ka hope o Ioba, mamua o kona mua: no ka mea, he umikumamaha ana tausani hipa, he aono tausani kamelo, a hookahi tausani kaulua bipi, a hookahi tausani hoki wahine.
UThixo wayibusisa impilo yokucina kaJobe ukwedlula eyokuqala. Waba lezimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezilitshumi lane, izinkulungwane eziyisithupha zamakamela, inkulungwane yezipani zenkabi labobabhemi abayinkulungwane.
13 Ehiku hoi ana mau keikikane, a ekolu kaikamahine.
Waphinda njalo waba lamadodana ayisikhombisa lamadodakazi amathathu.
14 A kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ka mua, o Iemima; a i ka inoa o ka lua, o Kezia; a i ka inoa o ke kolu, o Kerenehapuka.
Indodakazi yokuqala wayetha ibizo elithi Jemima, eyesibili yayinguKheziya, eyesithathu yaba nguKhereni-Haphutshi.
15 Aole i loaa na wahine maikai e like me na kaikamahine a Ioba ma ka aina a pau; a haawi aku ko lakou makuakane i hooilina mawaena o ko lakou mau hoahanau.
Kakuzange kube khona elizweni lonke abesifazane ababebahle njengamadodakazi kaJobe, njalo uyise wawabela ilifa kanye labanewabo.
16 A mahope o keia, ola iho la o Ioba i na makahiki hookahi haneri a me ke kanaha, a ike aku la ia i kana mau keiki, a me na keiki a kana mau keiki, i eha mau hanauna.
Ngemva kwalokhu uJobe waphila iminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amane; wababona abantwabakhe labantwababo kwaze kwaba yisizukulwane sesine.
17 A make iho la o Ioba, he elemakule, a he nui kona mau la.
UJobe wafa esemdala njalo eseluphele.
