1 Mokolo moko lisusu, ba-anjelu ya Nzambe bayaki komilakisa liboso ya Yawe. Satana mpe ayaki elongo na bango.
Rimwe zuvazve vatumwa vakauya kuzomira pamberi paJehovha, uye Satani akasvika pamwe chete navo kuti andomirawo pamberi pake.
2 Yawe atunaki Satana: — Owuti wapi? Satana azongiselaki Yawe: — Nawuti kotambola mpe koyengayenga na mokili.
Zvino Jehovha akati kuna Satani, “Wabvepiko?” Satani akapindura Jehovha akati, “Ndabva pakupota-pota nenyika napakukwidza nokudzika mairi.”
3 Yawe alobaki na Satana: — Boni, omoni Yobo, mosali na Ngai? Ezali na moto moko te oyo azali lokola ye, kati na mokili: azali moyengebene mpe moto ya sembo, atosaka Nzambe mpe akimaka mabe. Azali kaka kotingama na bosembo na ye, atako otindikaki Ngai na pamba ete nasala ye mabe.
Ipapo Jehovha akati kuna Satani, “Warangarira here muranda wangu Jobho? Hakuna munhu akafanana naye panyika, haana chaanopomerwa uye akarurama, munhu anotya Mwari uye anonzvenga chakaipa. Uye anoramba amire pakururama kwake, kunyange iwe wakandikurudzira pamusoro pake kuti ndimuparadze pasina chikonzero.”
4 Satana azongiselaki Yawe: — Poso mpo na poso: moto akoki kopesa biloko na ye nyonso mpo kaka abikisa bomoi na ye.
Satani akapindura achiti, “Ganda neganda! Munhu achapa zvose zvaanazvo nokuda kwoupenyu hwake.
5 Kasi sik’oyo, sembola kaka loboko na Yo, beta nzoto mpe mikuwa na ye; okomona penza soki akolakela Yo mabe te na miso na Yo.
Asi tambanudzai ruoko murove muviri wake namapfupa ake, uye zvirokwazvo achakutukai pachena.”
6 Yawe alobaki na Satana: — Malamu! Azali kati na maboko na yo, kasi kosimba bomoi na ye te!
Jehovha akati kuna Satani, “Saka zvakanaka, ari mumaoko ako, asi haufaniri kubata upenyu hwake.”
7 Boye, Satana alongwaki liboso ya Yawe mpe abwakelaki Yobo bokono ya mabe na poso ya nzoto, longwa na se ya matambe na ye kino na songe ya moto.
Saka Satani akabva pamberi paJehovha akandorova Jobho namaronda anorwadza kubva pasi petsoka dzake kusvikira panhongonya yomusoro wake.
8 Yobo akamataki eteni ya mbeki mpo na komikwanza na yango nzoto, mpe amivandisaki na putulu.
Ipapo Jobho akatora chaenga akazvikwenya nacho paakanga agere pakati pamadota.
9 Mwasi na ye alobaki na ye: — Boni, ozali kaka kokoba na bosembo na yo? Lakela Nzambe mabe mpe kufa na yo!
Mukadzi wake akati, “Ucharambira pakururama kwako kusvikira riniko? Tuka Mwari ufe!”
10 Yobo azongiselaki ye: — Ah! Ozali koloba lokola moto ya liboma! Boni, tondimaka kaka makambo ya malamu, epai ya Nzambe, kasi tondimaka makambo mabe te?
Iye akapindura akati, “Iwe unotaura somukadzi benzi. Ko, tichagamuchira zvakanaka kubva kuna Mwari, tikashayiwa zvakaipa here?” Muzvinhu izvi zvose, Jobho haana kutadza pane zvaakataura.
11 Tango baninga misato ya Yobo —Elifazi, moto ya Temani; Bilidadi, moto ya Shuwa; mpe Tsofari, moto ya Naama— bayokaki sango ya pasi nyonso oyo ekomelaki Yobo, batikaki bandako na bango mpe bayokanaki mpo na kokende kokabola pasi elongo na ye mpe kobondisa ye.
Shamwari nhatu dzaJobho, Erifazi muTemani, Bhiridhadhi muShuhi naZofari muNamati dzakati dzanzwa pamusoro pokutambudzika kwakanga kwawira pamusoro pake, vakabva kumisha yavo vakaungana pamwe chete vatenderana kuti vaende kundomudemba uye vamunyaradze.
12 Wuta na mosika, tango kaka bamonaki ye, bakokaki te koyeba ye lisusu; boye, babandaki wana kolela makasi, bapasolaki banzambala na bango mpe bamibwakelaki putulu na mito.
Vakati vamuona ari chinhambwe, havana kugona kumuziva, vakatanga kuchema zvikuru, uye vakabvarura nguo dzavo uye vakazvimwaya guruva pamisoro yavo.
13 Bamivandisaki na mabele elongo na Yobo mikolo sambo mpe butu sambo. Moko te akokaki koloba na ye ata liloba moko, pamba te bamonaki ndenge nini pasi na ye ezalaki makasi.
