Yobu 42
1 Awo Yobu n’addamu Mukama nti,
Then Job answered Jehovah, and said:
2 “Mmanyi ng’oyinza okukola ebintu byonna, era tewali kyotegeka kyonna kiyinza kuziyizibwa.
I know that thou canst do every thing, And that no purpose of thine can be hindered.
3 Wabuuza nti, ‘Ani ono aziyiza okuteesa kwange atalina magezi?’ Mazima ddala nayogera ebintu bye sitegeera, ebintu ebyassukirira okutegeera kwange.
Who is he that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Thus have I uttered what I understood not; Things too wonderful for me, which I knew not:
4 “Wulira nkwegayiridde, nange mbeeko kye nkubuuza, onziremu.
Hear thou, then, I beseech thee, and I will speak! I will ask thee, and do thou instruct me!
5 Amatu gange gaali gaakuwulirako dda, naye kaakano amaaso gange gakulabye.
I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now hath mine eye seen thee.
6 Kyenvudde neenyooma era neenenyezza mu nfuufu ne mu vvu.”
Wherefore I abhor myself, And 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.
And when Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite: “My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken concerning me that which is right, as hath my servant Job.
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.”
Take ye, therefore, seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a burnt-offering, and my servant Job shall pray for you; for to him alone will I have regard; that I deal not with you according to your folly. For ye have not spoken concerning me that which is right, as hath my servant Job.”
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, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did as Jehovah commanded them; and Jehovah had regard to Job.
10 Awo Mukama n’aggyawo ennaku ya Yobu bwe yamala okusabira mikwano gye. Mukama n’awa Yobu ebintu emirundi ebiri okusinga bye yalina okusooka.
And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends, and Jehovah 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 came to him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all his former acquaintances, and ate bread with him in his house; and condoled with him, and comforted him over all the evil which Jehovah had brought upon him; and every one gave him a piece of money [[a kesita]], and every one a ring of gold.
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.
Thus Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than the beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 Era Mukama n’amuwa n’abaana aboobulenzi musanvu, n’aboobuwala basatu.
He had also 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.
And he called the name of the first Jemima, of the second Kezia, and of the third Kerenhappuch.
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.
And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brethren.
16 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, Yobu n’awangaala emyaka kikumi mu ana; n’alaba ku baana be ne ku bazzukulu be okutuuka ku bannakasatwe.
And Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
17 N’oluvannyuma n’afa ng’akaddiyidde ddala ng’awezezza emyaka mingi.
Then Job died, being old and satisfied with days.
