Job 42
1 Mgbe ahụ, Job zara Onyenwe anyị sị:
And Job answereth Jehovah and saith: —
2 “Amara m na ị pụrụ ime ihe niile; ọ dịghị atụmatụ gị nke a pụrụ ikposa.
Thou hast known that [for] all things Thou art able, And not withheld from Thee is [any] device:
3 Ị jụrụ sị, ‘Onye bụ onye nke a ji okwu ihe ọmụma na-adịghị na ya na-eme ka atụmatụ m ghara ịpụta ihe?’ Nʼezie, ekwuru m banyere ihe ndị m na-aghọtaghị, ihe ndị dị oke ebube karịa m ịmata.
'Who [is] this, hiding counsel without knowledge?' Therefore, I have declared, and understand not, Too wonderful for me, and I know not.
4 “Ị sịrị, ‘Gee ntị ugbu a, aga m ekwu okwu; m ga-ajụ gị ajụjụ, gị onwe gị ga-azakwa m.’
'Hear, I pray thee, and I — I do speak, I ask thee, and cause thou me to know.'
5 Ntị m nụrụ ihe banyere gị ma ugbu a, ejirila m anya abụọ hụ gị.
By the hearing of the ear I heard Thee, And now mine eye hath seen Thee.
6 Ya mere, ana m akpọ onwe m asị, na echegharịkwa nʼime ntụ na uzuzu.”
Therefore do I loathe [it], And I have repented on dust and ashes.
7 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị gwasịrị Job okwu, ọ tụgharịrị gwa Elifaz onye Teman okwu sị ya, “Ana m ewesa gị na ndị enyi gị abụọ iwe, nʼihi na ihe unu kwuru banyere m ezighị ezi dịka nke ohu m Job kwuru.
And it cometh to pass after Jehovah's speaking these words unto Job, that Jehovah saith unto Eliphaz the Temanite, 'Burned hath Mine anger against thee, and against thy two friends, because ye have not spoken concerning Me rightly, like My servant Job.
8 Ugbu a, werenụ oke ehi asaa na ebule asaa, jekwuru ohu m bụ Job ka o jiri ha chụọrọ unu aja nsure ọkụ, ohu m bụ Job ga-ekpekwara unu ekpere. Aga m anabatakwa ekpere ọ ga-ekpe nʼihi unu. Agaghị m alakwa unu nʼiyi nʼihi okwu nzuzu unu. Unu ekwughị ihe ziri ezi banyere m dịka ohu m Job si kwuo.”
And now, take to you seven bullocks and seven rams, and go ye unto My servant Job, and ye have caused a burnt-offering to ascend for you; and Job My servant doth pray for you, for surely his face I accept, so as not to do with you folly, because ye have not spoken concerning Me rightly, like My servant Job.
9 Ya mere, Elifaz onye Teman, na Bildad, onye Shu, na Zofa, onye Naaman mere dịka Onyenwe anyị si nye ha nʼiwu. Onyenwe anyị nabatakwara ekpere nke Job kpere nʼihi ndị enyi ya.
And they go — Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, Zophar the Naamathite — and do as Jehovah hath spoken unto them; and Jehovah doth accept the face of Job.
10 Mgbe Job kpesịrị ekpere maka ndị enyi ya, Onyenwe anyị mekwara ka ọ baa ụba ọzọ. O nyekwara ya okpukpo abụọ nke ihe niile o nwere na mbụ.
And Jehovah hath turned [to] the captivity of Job in his praying for his friends, and Jehovah doth add [to] all that Job hath — to double.
11 Mgbe ahụ, ụmụnne ya ndị ikom na ụmụnne ya ndị inyom, na ndị enyi ya niile bịara soro ya rie oriri nʼụlọ ya, na-akasị ya obi nʼihi iru ụjụ ya niile. Ha kasịkwara ya obi nʼihi ọnwụnwa niile Onyenwe anyị mere ka ọ bịakwasị ya. Ha niile nʼotu nʼotu nyere ya onyinye ọlaọcha na mgbaaka ọlaedo.
And come unto him do all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all his former acquaintances, and they eat bread with him in his house, and bemoan him, and comfort him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him, and they gave to him each one kesitah, and each one ring of gold.
12 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gọziri Job nʼoge ikpeazụ nke ndụ ya karịa ka o si gọzie ya na mbụ. Job nwere puku atụrụ iri na anọ na puku ịnyịnya kamel isii na puku ehi abụọ na otu puku ịnyịnya ibu.
And Jehovah hath blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning, and he hath fourteen thousand of a flock, and six thousand camels, and a thousand pairs of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 Chineke mekwara ka ọ mụta ụmụ ndị ikom asaa, na ụmụ ndị inyom atọ ọzọ.
And he hath seven sons and three daughters;
14 Ndị a bụ aha ụmụ ya ndị inyom: nke mbụ bụ Jimaịma, nke abụọ bụ Kezaya, ebe nke atọ bụ Kerin-Hapuk.
and he calleth the name of the one Jemima, and the name of the second Kezia, and the name of the third Keren-Happuch.
15 Nʼala ahụ niile, o nweghị ụmụ agbọghọ mara mma dịka ụmụ ndị inyom Job ndị a. Job mekwara ka ha bụrụ ndị ga-eso ụmụ ya ndị ikom keta oke nʼihe niile o nwere.
And there have not been found women fair as the daughters of Job in all the land, and their father doth give to them an inheritance in the midst of their brethren.
16 Job nọgidekwara ndụ narị afọ na iri afọ anọ ọzọ. Ọ hụrụ ụmụ ya, na ụmụ ha ruo ọgbọ nke anọ.
And Job liveth after this a hundred and forty years, and seeth his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations;
17 Job nwụrụ mgbe o mere ezigbo agadi, ụbọchị ndụ ya jukwara ya afọ.
and Job dieth, aged and satisfied [with] days.
