Yobo 42
1 Yobo azongiselaki Yawe:
And Job said in answer to the Lord,
2 « Nayebi ete okoki kosala makambo nyonso; eloko moko te ekoki kotelemela mabongisi na Yo.
I see that you are able to do every thing, and to give effect to all your designs.
3 Olobaki: ‹ Nani akoki komema molili na mabongisi na Ngai, na nzela ya maloba na ye, oyo ezanga tina? › Solo, nazalaki kolobela makambo oyo nayebaki te, makambo ya kokamwa penza mpo na ngai, makambo oyo nasosolaki te.
Who is this who makes dark the purpose of God by words without knowledge? For I have been talking without knowledge about wonders not to be searched out.
4 Olobaki na ngai: ‹ Yaka sik’oyo, nalingi koloba; nalingi kotuna yo motuna, bongo okopesa ngai eyano. ›
Give ear to me, and I will say what is in my mind; I will put questions to you, and you will give me the answers.
5 Matoyi na ngai eyokaki makambo oyo bazalaki koloba na tina na Yo; kasi sik’oyo, miso na ngai emoni Yo.
Word of you had come to my ears, but now my eye has seen you.
6 Yango wana, ngai moko, nazali komiyokela mawa mpe namileli, namikitisi kino na putulu ya mabele mpe na putulu ya moto. »
For this cause I give witness that what I said is false, and in sorrow I take my seat in the dust.
7 Sima na Yawe koloba makambo oyo epai ya Yobo, alobaki na Elifazi, moto ya Temani: « Kanda na Ngai engaleli yo mpe baninga na yo mibale, pamba te bolobi na bosembo te na tina na Ngai, ndenge Yobo, mosali na Ngai, alobaki.
And it came about, after he had said these words to Job, that the Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite, I am very angry with you and your two friends, because you have not said what is right about me, as my servant Job has.
8 Kasi sik’oyo, bokamata bangombe sambo ya mibali mpe bameme sambo ya mibali; bokende epai ya Yobo, mosali na Ngai, botumba mbeka mpo na bino moko. Yobo, mosali na Ngai, akobondela mpo na bino; mpe mpo na kondima na ye, nakoyamba libondeli na ye mpo ete nasalela bino te kolanda bozoba na bino. Pamba te bolobi na bosembo te na tina na Ngai, ndenge Yobo, mosali na Ngai, alobaki. »
And now, take seven oxen and seven sheep, and go to my servant Job, and give a burned offering for yourselves, and my servant Job will make prayer for you, that I may not send punishment on you; because you have not said what is right about me, as my servant Job has.
9 Boye Elifazi, moto ya Temani; Bilidadi, moto ya Shuwa, mpe Tsofari, moto ya Naama, basalaki makambo oyo Yawe atindaki bango kosala; mpe Yawe ayambaki libondeli ya Yobo.
And Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did as the Lord had said. And the Lord gave ear to Job.
10 Sima na Yobo kosambela mpo na baninga na ye, Yawe atalisaki ye lisusu bolamu mpe apesaki ye bomengo mbala mibale koleka oyo azalaki na yango liboso.
And the Lord made up to Job for all his losses, after he had made prayer for his friends: and all Job had before was increased by the Lord twice as much.
11 Bandeko na ye nyonso ya mibali mpe ya basi, elongo na bato nyonso oyo bayebaki ye liboso, bayaki mpe baliaki na ye elongo kati na ndako na ye; bakabolaki na ye mawa mpe balendisaki ye na tina na pasi nyonso oyo Yawe atindelaki ye, mpe moko na moko kati na bango apesaki ye mbongo moko ya ebende ya palata mpe lopete moko ya wolo.
And all his brothers and sisters, and his friends of earlier days, came and took food with him in his house; and made clear their grief for him, and gave him comfort for all the evil which the Lord had sent on him; and they all gave him a bit of money and a gold ring.
12 Yawe apambolaki suka ya Yobo koleka ebandeli ya bomoi na ye. Azalaki na bameme nkoto zomi na minei, bashamo nkoto motoba, bangombe nkoto mibale mpe ba-ane nkoto moko.
And the Lord's blessing was greater on the end of Job's life than on its start: and so he came to have fourteen thousand sheep and goats, and six thousand camels, and two thousand oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 Azalaki na bana mibali sambo mpe bana basi misato.
And he had seven sons and three daughters.
14 Mwana na ye ya liboso ya mwasi, Yemima; ya mibale, Ketsia; mpe ya misato, Kereni-Apuki.
And he gave the first the name of Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch;
15 Kati na mokili mobimba, ezalaki te na basi kitoko koleka bana basi ya Yobo. Tata na bango apesaki bango libula ndenge moko na bandeko na bango ya mibali.
And there were no women so beautiful as the daughters of Job in all the earth: and their father gave them a heritage among their brothers.
16 Sima na yango, Yobo awumelaki lisusu na bomoi mibu nkama moko na tuku minei; amonaki bana na ye mpe bakitani na ye kino na molongo ya minei.
And after this Job had a hundred and forty years of life, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
17 Mpe Yobo akufaki na kimobange makasi mpe atondaki na mikolo.
And Job came to his end, old and full of days.
