Yobu 42
1 Awo Yobu n’addamu Mukama nti,
Then Job answered the Lord.
2 “Mmanyi ng’oyinza okukola ebintu byonna, era tewali kyotegeka kyonna kiyinza kuziyizibwa.
“I know you can do anything. No one can prevent you doing what you want.
3 Wabuuza nti, ‘Ani ono aziyiza okuteesa kwange atalina magezi?’ Mazima ddala nayogera ebintu bye sitegeera, ebintu ebyassukirira okutegeera kwange.
You asked, ‘Who is this who questions my wisdom by talking so ignorantly?’ I was speaking about things I didn't understand—things too wonderful for me to know.
4 “Wulira nkwegayiridde, nange mbeeko kye nkubuuza, onziremu.
You told me, ‘Listen to me, I am going to speak. I am going to question you, and you must answer me.’
5 Amatu gange gaali gaakuwulirako dda, naye kaakano amaaso gange gakulabye.
Before, I had only heard about you, but now I've seen you for myself.
6 Kyenvudde neenyooma era neenenyezza mu nfuufu ne mu vvu.”
That is why I'm sorry for what I said, and I repent in dust and ashes.”
7 Nga Mukama amaze okwogera ebigambo bino eri Yobu, n’agamba Erifaazi Omutemani nti, “Nkunyiigidde ggwe ne mikwano gyo ababiri; kubanga temwanjogerako bituufu, ng’omuddu wange Yobu bw’akoze.
After the Lord had finished speaking to Job he said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “I am angry with you and your two friends because you have not told the truth about me, as my servant Job did.
8 Noolwekyo kaakano mutwale ente ennume musanvu, n’endiga ennume musanvu, mugende eri omuddu wange Yobu, mweweereyo eyo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa, n’omuddu wange Yobu ajja kubasabira, kubanga nzija kukkiriza okusaba kwe nneme okubakolako ng’obusirusiru bwammwe bwe buli. Kubanga temwanjogerako bituufu ng’omuddu wange bw’akoze.”
So take seven bulls and seven rams and go to my servant Job, and you shall offer a burnt offering for yourselves. My servant Job will pray on your behalf and I will accept his prayer and not deal with you according to your foolishness, because you have not told the truth about me, as my servant Job did.”
9 Awo Erifaazi Omutemani, ne Birudaadi Omusuki, ne Zofali Omunaamasi ne bagenda ne bakola nga Mukama bwe yabalagira. Awo Mukama n’akkiriza okusaba kwa Yobu.
So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite did what the Lord commanded them, and the Lord accepted Job's prayer.
10 Awo Mukama n’aggyawo ennaku ya Yobu bwe yamala okusabira mikwano gye. Mukama n’awa Yobu ebintu emirundi ebiri okusinga bye yalina okusooka.
The Lord restored Job's prosperity when he prayed for his friends, and gave him twice as much as he had before.
11 Awo baganda be bonna ne bannyina bonna ne bajja n’abo abaali bamumanyi okusooka, ne balya naye emmere mu nnyumba ye; ne bamusaasira ne bamukulisa okubonaabona kwonna Mukama kwe yakkiriza okumutuukako. Buli omu ku bo n’amuwaayo ffeeza nga bwe yasobola, n’empeta ya zaabu.
Then all his brothers and sisters and friends he'd previously known came and ate with him at his home. They showed him sympathy and comforted him because of all the trouble the Lord had caused him. Each one of them gave him money and a gold ring.
12 Awo Mukama n’awa Yobu omukisa mu nnaku ze ezaasembayo n’okusinga entandikwa ye bwe yali: yafuna endiga omutwalo gumu mu enkumi nnya, n’eŋŋamira kakaaga, ne ziseddume z’ente lukumi, n’endogoyi enkazi lukumi.
The Lord blessed the last part of Job's life more than the first part. Now he owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 teams of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
13 Era Mukama n’amuwa n’abaana aboobulenzi musanvu, n’aboobuwala basatu.
Job also had seven sons and three daughters.
14 Omuwala ow’olubereberye n’amutuuma Yemima, n’owokubiri n’amutuuma Keeziya, n’owookusatu n’amutuuma Keremukappuki, n’aboobulezi musanvu.
Job called the first daughter Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-Happuch.
15 Awo mu nsi yonna ne wataba bakazi balungi kwenkana bawala ba Yobu. Kitaabwe n’abawa omugabo ogw’ebintu ogwenkanankana ne gwe yawa bannyinaabwe abalenzi.
Nowhere in all the land were there women as beautiful as Job's daughters, and Job gave them the same inheritance as their brothers.
16 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, Yobu n’awangaala emyaka kikumi mu ana; n’alaba ku baana be ne ku bazzukulu be okutuuka ku bannakasatwe.
Job lived 140 years after this, seeing his children, and grandchildren, in fact four generations.
17 N’oluvannyuma n’afa ng’akaddiyidde ddala ng’awezezza emyaka mingi.
Then Job died at an old age, having lived a very full life.
