Pea naʻe tali ai ʻe Sētane kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “He kuo manavahē ʻa Siope ki he ʻOtua taʻehatotongi?
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.

Kae mafao atu eni ho nima, ʻo taaʻi ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻaʻana, pea te ne lauʻikoviʻi koe ʻi ho fofonga.”

Pea naʻe ʻoho mai ʻae kakai Sipa ʻo ʻave ʻakinautolu; pea kuo nau tāmateʻi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā; pea ko au pe kuo hao ke tala ia kiate koe.”
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.”
Pea lolotonga ʻene lea mo ʻene haʻu foki ʻae tokotaha, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo tō mai mei he langi ʻae afi ʻae ʻOtua, pea kuo vela ai ʻae fanga sipi, mo e kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu; pea ko au pe kuo hao ke tala ia kiate koe.”
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.”
Pea lolotonga ʻene lea mo ʻene haʻu foki ʻae tokotaha, ʻo ne pehē, “Naʻe vahe tolu ʻae kongakau Kalitia, ʻonau ʻoho mai ki he fanga kāmeli, pea ʻave ia, pea kuo nau tāmateʻi ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻaki ʻae mata ʻoe heletā; pea ko au pe kuo hao ke tala ia kiate koe.”
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,

Pea ʻiloange, kuo hā mai ʻae fuʻu matangi lahi mei he toafa, ʻo taaʻi hono tuliki ʻe fā ʻoe fale, pea naʻe holo ia ki he kau talavou, pea kuo nau mate; pea ko au pe kuo hao ke tala ia kiate koe.”
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,
Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ʻa Siope, ʻo ne haehae hono pulupulu, ʻo fakatekefua ia, pea fakafoʻohifo ki he kelekele, ʻo hū.
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.”
ʻO ne pehē, “Naʻaku haʻu telefua pe mei he manāva ʻo ʻeku faʻē, pea te u toe ʻalu telefua atu pe: naʻe foaki ʻe Sihova, pea kuo toʻo atu ʻe Sihova; fakafetaʻi pe ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.”
22 Nʼime ihe ndị a niile, Job emehieghị site nʼibo Chineke ebubo ime ihe ọjọọ.
ʻI he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē naʻe ʻikai angahala ʻa Siope, pe tuku ha kovi ki he ʻOtua.
