Job 42

1 Na Job el topuk LEUM GOD ac fahk,

Then Job answered the LORD:

2 “LEUM GOD, nga etu lah ku nukewa oasr sum, Ac kom ku in oru ma nukewa kom lungse.

“I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours 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.

You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’ therefore I have uttered that which I didn’t understand, things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know.

4 Kom tuh fahk mu nga in porongo ke kom ac sramsram, Ac in srike in topuk mwe siyuk lom uh.

You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer 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 heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.

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 abhor myself, and repent in 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.

It was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.

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.”

Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.”

9 Eliphaz, Bildad, ac Zophar oru ma LEUM GOD El fahk eltal in oru ah, na LEUM GOD El lohng pre lal Job.

So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the LORD commanded them, and the LORD accepted Job.

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.

The LORD restored Job’s prosperity when he prayed for his friends. The LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

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.

Then all his brothers, all his sisters, and all those who had been of his acquaintance before, came to him and ate bread with him in his house. They comforted him, and consoled him concerning all the evil that the LORD had brought on him. Everyone also gave him a piece of money, and everyone a ring 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.

So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.

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.

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.

In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. 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.

After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, to four generations.

17 Na el misa ke el arulana matuoh.

So Job died, being old and full of days.
