1 Otu nwoke aha ya bụ Job bi nʼobodo Uz. Nwoke a bụ Job bụ onye na-enweghị ịta ụta ọbụla, bụrụkwa onye ezi omume nke na-atụ egwu Chineke ma na-agbara mmehie ọsọ.
`A man, Joob bi name, was in the lond of Hus; and thilke man was symple, and riytful, and dredynge God, and goynge awey fro yuel.
2 Ọ mụrụ ụmụ ndị ikom asaa na ụmụ agbọghọ atọ.
And seuene sones and thre douytris weren borun to hym;
3 O nwere puku atụrụ asaa, na puku ịnyịnya kamel atọ, na ehi ọnụọgụgụ ha dị otu puku e jikọrọ abụọ abụọ, na narị ịnyịnya ibu ise, na ọtụtụ ndị na-ejere ya ozi. Ọ bụ nwoke dị ukwuu karịa ndị niile bi nʼọwụwa anyanwụ.
and his possessioun was seuene thousynde of scheep, and thre thousynde of camels, and fyue hundrid yockis of oxis, and fyue hundrid of femal assis, and ful myche meynee; and `thilke man was grete among alle men of the eest.
4 Ụmụ ya ndị ikom na-eme mmemme oriri na ọṅụṅụ nʼụbọchị ọmụmụ ha nʼụlọ ha, nke ọbụla nʼime ya nʼusoro. Mgbe ha na-eme nke a, ha na-akpọkwa ụmụnne ha ndị nwanyị atọ ka ha bịa soro ha rie ma ṅụkwaa.
And hise sones yeden, and maden feestis bi housis, ech man in his day; and thei senten, and clepiden her thre sistris, `that thei schulden ete, and drynke wiyn with hem.
5 Mgbe oge mmemme ndị ahụ gwụsịrị, Job na-akpọkọta ụmụ ya doo ha nsọ. Nʼisi ụtụtụ ya, ọ na-achụ aja nsure ọkụ nʼihi onye ọbụla nʼetiti ụmụ ya. Echiche ya bụ, “Ma eleghị anya, ụmụ ya emehiela kọchaa Chineke nʼime obi ha.” Nke a bụ ihe Job na-eme mgbe niile.
And whanne the daies of feeste hadden passid in to the world, Joob sente to hem, and halewide hem, and he roos eerli, and offride brent sacrifices `bi alle. For he seide, Lest perauenture my sones do synne, and curse God in her hertis. Joob dide so in alle daies.
6 Otu ụbọchị ụmụ Chineke bịara igosi onwe ha nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ma ekwensu sonyekwara ha bịa.
Forsothe in sum day, whanne the sones of God `weren comun to be present bifor the Lord, also Sathan cam among hem.
7 Onyenwe anyị sịrị Ekwensu, “Ebee ka i si abịa?” Ekwensu zara Onyenwe anyị, “Site nʼịwagharị nʼụwa na site nʼịgagharị ihu na azụ nʼime ya.”
To whom the Lord seide, Fro whennus comest thou? Which answeride, and seide, Y haue cumpassid the erthe, and Y haue walkid thorouy it.
8 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị Ekwensu, “I leziela ohu m nwoke Job anya? Ọ dịghị onye ọzọ nọ nʼụwa nke dịka ya. Ọ bụ nwoke zuruoke, onye na-emekwa ihe ziri ezi. Ọ bụ onye na-atụ egwu Chineke, na-adịghị etinye aka ya nʼihe ọjọọ ọbụla.”
And the Lord seide to hym, Whether thou hast biholde my seruaunt Joob, that noon in erthe is lyik hym; he is a symple man, and riytful, and dredynge God, and goynge awei fro yuel?
9 Ekwensu zara Onyenwe anyị sị, “Job ọ na-atụ Chineke egwu nʼefu?
To whom Sathan answeride, Whether Joob dredith God veynli?
10 Ọ bụ na ị gbaghị Job na ezinaụlọ ya na ihe niile o nwere ogige gburugburu nʼakụkụ niile? I gọziela ọrụ aka ya, nke mere na igwe ewu na atụrụ ya na igwe ehi ya jupụtara ebe niile.
Whethir thou hast not cumpassid hym, and his hows, and al his catel bi cumpas? Thou hast blessid the werkis of hise hondis, and hise possessioun encreesside in erthe.
11 Ngwa, setịpụ aka gị metụ ihe niile o nwere aka, ka ị hụ ma ọ gaghị abụ gị ọnụ.”
But stretche forth thin hond a litil, and touche thou alle thingis whiche he hath in possessioun; if he cursith not thee `in the face, `bileue not to me.
12 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị zara ekwensu sị ya, “Lee Job, jiri niile o nwere mee ihe ọbụla ị chọrọ, kama emetụkwala ndụ ya aka.” Emesịa, ekwensu sitere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị pụọ.
Therfor the Lord seide to Sathan, Lo! alle thingis, whiche he hath, ben in thin hond; oneli stretche thou not forth thin hond in to hym. And Sathan yede out fro the face of the Lord.
13 Otu ụbọchị, mgbe ụmụ Job ndị nwoke na ụmụnne ya ndị nwanyị zukọrọ iri ihe oriri na ịṅụ ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼụlọ nwanne ha nwoke nke okenye.
Sotheli whanne in sum dai `hise sones and douytris eeten, and drunken wiyn in the hows of her firste gendrid brothir,
14 Otu onye nʼime ndị na-eje ozi bịakwutere Job sị, “Mgbe ehi anyị na-akọ ọrụ na mgbe ịnyịnya ibu anyị na-ata nri nʼebe dị nso,
a messanger cam to Job, `whiche messanger seide, Oxis eriden, and femal assis `weren lesewid bisidis tho;
15 ndị Sheba bịara lụsoo anyị ọgụ ma chịkọrọ ha laa. Ha ji mma agha gbuo ndị ọhụ gị, maọbụ naanị m bụ onye gbapụtara ịgwa gị.”
and Sabeis felden yn, and token awey alle thingis, and `smytiden the children with swerd; and Y aloone ascapide for to telle to thee.
16 Mgbe ọ ka kpụ okwu nʼọnụ, onyeozi ọzọ gbabatara kwuo sị, “Ọkụ Chineke zitere sitere na mbara eluigwe daa rechapụ igwe atụrụ na ndị ohu niile. Ọ bụ naanị m bụ onye gbapụtara ịgwa gị ihe mere.”
And whanne he spak yit, anothir cam, and seide, Fier of God cam doun fro heuene, and wastide scheep, and `children touchid; and Y aloone ascapide for to telle `to thee.
17 Mgbe onye nke ahụ nọ na-ekwu okwu, onyeozi ọzọ batara kwuokwa sị, “Ndị agha ndị Kaldịa kere onwe ha ụzọ atọ bịakwasị ịnyịnya kamel gị niile, dọta ha nʼagha, kpụrụ ha laa. Ha ji mma agha gbuo ndị ohu gị niile gbalaa. Ọ bụ naanị m bụ onye gbapụtara ịgwa gị ihe mere.”
But yit the while he spak, also anothir cam, and seide, Caldeis maden thre cumpenyes, and assailiden the camels, and token tho awei, and thei smytiden `also the children with swerd; and Y aloone ascapide to telle to thee.
18 Mgbe ọ kpụ okwu ya nʼọnụ, onyeozi ọzọ batakwara kwuo sị, “Ụmụ gị ndị ikom na ndị inyom nọ nʼụlọ nwanne ha nke okenye na-eri na-aṅụ,
And yit he spak, and, lo! anothir entride, and seide, While thi sones and douytris eeten, and drunken wiyn in the hows of her firste gendrid brothir,
19 na mberede, oke ifufe dị ukwuu nke si nʼọzara feere tie akụkụ anọ nke ụlọ ahụ, mee ka ọ dakwasị ha. Ha niile nwụrụ, ma ọ bụkwa naanị m gbapụtara ịgwa gị ihe mere.”
a greet wynde felde yn sudenli fro the coost of desert, and schook foure corneris of the hows, `which felde doun, and oppresside thi children, and thei ben deed; and Y aloone fledde to telle to thee.
20 Mgbe Job nụrụ ihe ndị a, o sitere nʼebe ọ nọ bilie ọtọ, dọwaa uwe ya, kpụchaa agịrị isi ya, ọ dara nʼala ma kpọọ isiala,
Thanne Joob roos, and to-rente hise clothis, and `with pollid heed he felde doun on the erthe, and worschipide God,
21 kwuo sị: “Ọtọ ka m gba mgbe m si nʼafọ nne m pụta nʼọnọdụ ịgba ọtọ ka m ga-eji laghachikwa. Onyenwe anyị nyere ihe niile, Onyenwe anyị ewerekwala ihe niile, ka aha Onyenwe anyị bụrụ ihe a gọziri agọzi.”
and seide, Y yede nakid out of the wombe of my modir, Y schal turne ayen nakid thidur; the Lord yaf, the Lord took awei; as it pleside the Lord, so `it is doon; the name of the Lord be blessid.
22 Nʼime ihe ndị a niile, Job emehieghị site nʼibo Chineke ebubo ime ihe ọjọọ.
In alle these thingis Joob synnede not in hise lippis, nether spak ony fonned thing ayens God.
