< Joba 42 >

1 Ary Joba dia namaly an’ i Jehovah ka nanao hoe:
Then Job answered Yhwh, and said,
2 Fantatro fa hainao avokoa ny zavatra rehetra, ary tsy azo ferana ny fisainanao.
I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.
3 Iza no mahatakona ny fisainanao amin’ ny tsi-fahalalana? Koa dia nilaza izay tsy fantatro aho, dia zava-mahagaga loatra amiko, izay tsy takatry ny saiko.
Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4 Mifona aminao aho, mihainoa, fa hiteny aho; Hanontany Anao aho, ka ampahafantaro.
Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will ask of thee, and declare thou unto me.
5 Fandrenesan’ ny sofina ihany no nandrenesako Anao; Fa ankehitriny izao kosa dia ny masoko no mahita Anao;
I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.
6 Koa dia miaiky sy mibebaka Eto amin’ ny vovoka sy ny lavenona aho.
Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
7 Ary rehefa voalazan’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Joba izany teny izany, dia hoy koa Izy tamin’ i Elifaza Temanita: Mirehitra aminao sy ny sakaizanao roa lahy ny fahatezerako satria tsy mba marina tahaka ny filàzan’ i Joba mpanompoko ny filàzanareo Ahy.
And it was so, that after Yhwh had spoken these words unto Job, Yhwh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.
8 Koa ankehitriny makà vantotr’ ombilahy fito sy ondrilahy fito ho anareo, ary mankanesa ao amin’ i Joba mpanompoko, ka manatera fanatitra dorana ho anareo; ary Joba mpanompoko no hifona ho anareo, fa izy no hankasitrahako, fandrao hamaly anareo araka ny fahadalanareo Aho, satria tsy marina tahaka ny filàzan’ i Joba mpanompoko ny filàzanareo Ahy.
Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks 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 him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job.
9 Dia nandeha Elifaza Temanita sy Bildada Sohita ary Zofara Namatita ka nanao araka izay nandidian’ i Jehovah azy; ary Jehovah dia nankasitraka an’ i Joba.
So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as Yhwh commanded them: Yhwh also accepted Job.
10 Ary Jehovah nampody ny fiadanan’ i Joba, raha nivavaka ho an’ ny sakaizany izy, ka dia nanome azy indroa toraka izay nananany fahiny Izy.
And Yhwh turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also Yhwh gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11 Dia avy ny rahalahiny rehetra sy ny anabaviny rehetra ary ny olona rehetra izay fantany fahiny ka nankao aminy ary niara-nihinana taminy tao an-tranony ary nitsapa alahelo sady nampionona azy noho ny fahoriana rehetra izay efa nahatran’ i Jehovah taminy; ary samy nanome azy vakim-bola iray avy sy kavim-bolamena iray avy izy rehetra.
Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that Yhwh had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.
12 Ary Jehovah nitahy ny niafaran’ i Joba mihoatra noho ny voalohany ka nanana ondry aman’ osy efatra arivo amby iray alina sy rameva enina arivo sy omby roa arivo ary borikivavy arivo izy.
So Yhwh blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she donkeys.
13 Ary nanan-janaka fito lahy sy vavy telo koa izy,
He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14 ka ny anaran’ ny zokiny nataony hoe Jemima, ary ny anaran’ ny manarakaraka Kezia, ary ny anaran’ ny faravavy Kerena-hapoka.
And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Keren–happuch.
15 Ary tsy nisy vehivavy tsara tarehy tahaka ny zanakavavin’ i Joba hita tany amin’ ny tany rehetra, ary niara-nomen-drainy lova tamin’ ny anadahiny izy.
And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
16 Ary mbola velona efa-polo amby zato taona Joba taorian’ izany ka nahita ny zananilahy sy ny zafiny ka hatramin’ ny zafin-dohaliny aza.
After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations.
17 Dia maty Joba, rehefa tratrantitra ka ela niainana.
So Job died, being old and full of days.
