< Job 42 >

1 Na Job el topuk LEUM GOD ac fahk,
Then answered Job unto the Lord, and said,
2 “LEUM GOD, nga etu lah ku nukewa oasr sum, Ac kom ku in oru ma nukewa kom lungse.
I acknowledge that thou art able to do every thing, and that no deep plan of thine can be restrained.
3 Kom siyuk lah fuka tuh nga kusen siyuk ke lalmwetmet lom Ke wangin ma nga etu. Nga tuh kaskas ke ma su nga tia kalem kac, Ke ma usrnguk su yoklala nu sik in etu kac.
Who is he that dareth to conceal [thy] counsel without knowledge? Truly I have spoken of what I understood not, of things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4 Kom tuh fahk mu nga in porongo ke kom ac sramsram, Ac in srike in topuk mwe siyuk lom uh.
Oh do but hear [me], and I will indeed speak: I will ask of thee, and do thou inform me.
5 In pacl meet ah, ma na mwet uh fahk nu sik pa nga etu uh, Tuh pa inge, nga liye kom ke mutuk sifacna.
I had only heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; but now my eye hath seen thee.
6 Ke ma inge nga arulana mwekin ke ma nukewa nga tuh fahk ah, Ac nga akkalemye auli luk ke nga muta inmasrlon kutkut ac apat.”
Therefore I reject [what I have said], and repent; because I am dust and ashes.
7 Tukun LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel Job tari, na El fahk nu sel Eliphaz, “Nga toasr sum ac sin mwet kawuk luo lom ingan, mweyen komtal tia fahk kas pwaye keik, oana ke Job, mwet kulansap luk, el oru.
And it came to pass, after the Lord had spoken these words unto Job, that the Lord said to Eliphaz the Themanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; because ye have not spoken of me properly, like my servant Job.
8 Inge, kom fahla ac us itkosr cow mukul ac itkosr sheep mukul an nu yorol Job, ac sang nu sel in mwe kisa lomtal nu sel. Job el ac fah pre keimtal, na nga fah lohng pre lal, ac tia aklusrongtenye komtal oana ma fal in orek nu sumtal. Komtal tuh tia fahk ma pwaye keik oana ke el oru ah.”
And now take unto yourselves seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up a burnt-offering in your behalf; and my servant Job shall pray for you; for him alone will I receive favorably, so as not to deal with you after your folly; because ye have not spoken of me properly, like my servant Job.
9 Eliphaz, Bildad, ac Zophar oru ma LEUM GOD El fahk eltal in oru ah, na LEUM GOD El lohng pre lal Job.
Then went Eliphaz the Themanite and Bildad the Shuchite and Zophar the Na'amathite, and did in accordance with what the Lord had spoken to them: and the Lord received Job in favor.
10 Na tukun Job el pre ke kawuk tolu lal ah, LEUM GOD El sifilpa folokonang mwe kasrup lal in pacl luo yohk liki meet ah.
And the Lord brought back the captivity of Job, when he prayed in behalf of his friends; and the Lord increased all that Job had had twofold.
11 Mwet lel Job ac mwet loul, wi mwet kawuk lal nukewa meet, elos tuku nu yorol Job ac welul orek kufwa in lohm sel ah. Elos fahk kas in akwoyal ac akkalemye pakomuta lalos, ke ma nukewa LEUM GOD El tuh akkeokyal kac. Kais sie selos sang mani ac ring gold se nu sel.
And then came unto him all his brothers, and all his sisters, and all that had been of his acquaintance before, and ate bread with him in his house; and they condoled with him, and comforted him for all the evil that the Lord had brought upon him; and they gave him, every one, a kessitah, and every one an earring of gold.
12 LEUM GOD El akinsewowoye tafun moul lal Job tok yohk liki na tafun moul lal meet ah. Oasr tausin singoul akosr sheep, tausin onkosr camel, tausin luo cow, ac tausin se ke donkey natul.
And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 Oayapa oasr wen itkosr ac acn tolu sasu natul.
He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14 El sang inen mutan se ma matu ah Jemimah, ac acn se akluo ah pa Keziah, ac acn se ma srik ah Keren Happuch.
And he called the name of the first Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
15 Wangin mutan fin faclu nufon kato oana acn natul Job inge. Papa tumaltal el tuh sang mwe usru laltal oapana ke el oru nu sin mukul natul ah.
And there were not found such handsome women as the daughters of Job in all the land; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
16 Tukun ma inge, Job el tuh sifil moul ke lusen yac siofok angngaul, ac lusen pacl se inge oru el ku in liye fwilin tulik nutin natul, oayapa nutin nutin natul.
And Job lived after this one hundred and forty years: and he saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
17 Na el misa ke el arulana matuoh.
Then died Job, being old and full of days.
