Jovu 42
1 Hagi anante Jopu'a amanage huno Ra Anumzamofona kenona hunte'ne,
UJobe wasemphendula uThixo wathi:
2 Nagrama antahi'noana nazano hunaku'ma hanana zana amne nehanankeno, mago vahe'mo'a e'ina hu'zana osuo huno osugahie.
“Ngiyazi ukuthi ungazenza zonke izinto; kalikho icebo lakho elingavinjwa.
3 Kagra nantahigenka, iza antahintahi'a omane vahe'mo Nagri knare antahi'zankura nagenoka hu'ne hunkama hu'nanana? E'i ana vahera nagragi'na, ke'na antahi'na osugeno nagri antahi'zampinena omaneanagi, knare zantfama hu'nea zanku amne keaga hu'noe.
Ubuzile wathi, ‘Ngubani lo ovala iseluleko sami engelalwazi na?’ Ngeqiniso ngikhulumile ngezinto ebengingazizwisisi, izinto ezimangalisayo engingeke ngizazi.
4 Anumzamoka hunka, Jopuga kagesa naminege'na keaga nehu'na, mago'a kagenoka hugahuanki kenirera nona hunanto hunka hu'nane.
Wena uthe, ‘Lalela manje, mina ngizakhuluma; ngizakubuza, wena uzangiphendula.’
5 Kora vahe'mo'za kagri kagenkea nehazage'na antahi'noe. Hianagi menina nagra'a navufinti kagoe.
Indlebe zami zasezizwile ngawe kodwa manje amehlo ami asekubonile.
6 Maka nanekema hu'noana ete erue. Ana nehu'na menina nasunku'ma huazana ama tanefapine kugusopafi mani'ne'na erinte ama hue.
Ngakho sengizeyisa, sengiphenduka ngizilahla othulini lasemlotheni.”
7 Hagi Jopu'enema keagama Ra Anumzamo'ma huvagamareteno'a, amanage huno Temani kumateti ne' Elifasinkura hu'ne, Kagri'ene tare ronekagu'enena tusi narimpa aheramante'noe. Na'ankure Nagri eri'za ne' Jopu'ma nagriku'ma tamagema huno huamama hiaza huta, Nagri navu'nava zankura tamagra tamage huta huamara osu'naze.
Kwathi uThixo esetshilo lezizinto kuJobe wathi ku-Elifazi umThemani, “Ngikuzondele wena kanye labangane bakho bobabili, ngoba kalikhulumanga ngami okulungileyo njengenceku yami uJobe.
8 E'ina hu'negu tamagra 7ni'a ve bulimakao afu'ene 7ni'a ve sipisipi afu'ene avreta Nagri eri'za ne' Jopunte vuta, tamagra'agu huta tevefi kre fanane hu' ofa ome hiho. Ana nehinkeno, Nagri eri'za ne' Jopu'ma tamagriku huno, nunamuma hanige'na, tamagra neginagi kema huta Nagri navu'nava zanku'ma tamage huta huama'ma osu'naza zantera, Jopu nunamuna antahi'na knazana ontamigahue.
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 Anagema hutege'za Temani kumateti ne' Elifasiki, Suha kumateti ne' Bildatiki, Nama kumateti ne' Zofariki hu'za Ra Anumzamo'ma hihoma huno huzmantea zana amage ante'za tro hu'naze. Ana hazageno Jopu'ma hia nunamuna Ra Anumzamo'a antahimi'ne.
Ngakho u-Elifazi umThemani, uBhilidadi umShuhi loZofari umNahama benza lokho abakutshelwa nguThixo; njalo uThixo wawemukela umkhuleko kaJobe.
10 Hagi rone'araminku'ma huno Jopu'ma nunamuma hutegeno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a knare nomani'za ete Jopuna ami'ne. Ko'ma Jopu'ma ante'nea fenozama havizama hu'nerera, tamagerfa huno Ra Anumzamo'a ana mika fenozana ete ami'neno, ana agofetura mago'ene ante agofetu huno amigeno rama'a fenoza ante'ne.
UJobe esebakhulekele abangane bakhe, uThixo wamenza waphumelela njalo wamupha okunengi okuphindwe kabili kulokho ayelakho kuqala.
11 Anama hutege'za afu aganahe'zane asarehe'zane korapa rone'amo'zanena e'za noma'afina ne'zana eme ne'naze. Ana nehu'za Ra Anumzamo'ma knazama atregeno agrite'ma e'nea zankura, Jopuna eme zamasunku hunente'za, azeri hankaveti nanekea hu'naze. Ana nehu'za mago mago vahe'mo'a muse zana, zagone golireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza rini eritere hu'za eme ami'naze.
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 Ana higeno henka nomani'zama Jopu'ma manino vu'nea nomani zama'afina Ra Anumzamo'a asomu huntegeno ko'ma mani'nea nomanizana rugatere'ne. Higeno Jopu'a menina 14tauseni'a sipisipi afutami anteno, kemoli afutamina 6tauseni'a anteno, hozama e'neria bulimaka'ama zanazeri tragoteno rezmante'nea bulimakao afutamina 2tauseni'a anteno, a' tonki afutamina 1tauseni'a ante'ne.
UThixo wayibusisa impilo yokucina kaJobe ukwedlula eyokuqala. Waba lezimvu eziyizinkulungwane ezilitshumi lane, izinkulungwane eziyisithupha zamakamela, inkulungwane yezipani zenkabi labobabhemi abayinkulungwane.
13 Ana nehuno Ra Anumzamo'a ru'ene Jopuma ami'neana, 7ni'a ne' mofavre nemino, 3'a mofa'ne ami'ne.
Waphinda njalo waba lamadodana ayisikhombisa lamadodakazi amathathu.
14 Hagi ese mofa'mofona Jemima'e huno agia antenemino, anante mofa'mofona Kesia'e huno agia antenemino, nampa 3 mofakura Keren-Hapuku'e huno agia antemi'ne.
Indodakazi yokuqala wayetha ibizo elithi Jemima, eyesibili yayinguKheziya, eyesithathu yaba nguKhereni-Haphutshi.
15 Hagi anama mani'naza mopa'afina, Jopu mofa'nemo'zama hiranto hu'za knare zantfama hu'nazankna mofa'nea omani'naze. Ana hu'neankino Jopu'ma fenone mopanema refko huno ne' mofavre naga'ama nezamino'a, ana mofane nagara ana zanke huno refko huno zami'ne.
Kakuzange kube khona elizweni lonke abesifazane ababebahle njengamadodakazi kaJobe, njalo uyise wawabela ilifa kanye labanewabo.
16 Ana'ma huteno'a Jopu'a 140'a kafu mani'neno, agehone agigone azankonena ke'ne.
Ngemva kwalokhu uJobe waphila iminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amane; wababona abantwabakhe labantwababo kwaze kwaba yisizukulwane sesine.
17 Ana'ma huteno'a Jopu'a knare'za huno za'zate maniteno, ozafa reno fri'ne.
UJobe wafa esemdala njalo eseluphele.
