< Joba 42 >

1 Natoi’ Iobe amy zao t’Iehovà,
And Job answered Jehovah and said,
2 Fantako te kila lefe’o, le tsy azo sebañeñe ze safiri’o.
I know that thou canst do everything, and that thou canst be hindered in no thought of thine.
3 Hoe irehe: Ia ze o mañeta-panoroañe tsy aman-kilala zao? Toe nivolañeko ty tsy nirendreko, o raha loho mandikoatse ahy, tsy napotako.
Who is he that obscureth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered what I did not understand; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4 Ehe janjiño, [hoe irehe, ] le hivolan-draho, hañontaneako vaho ho toiñe’o.
Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and inform me.
5 Toe nahatsanoñe ty ama’o raho am-pijanjiñan-dravembia, fe mahatrea Azo o masokoo henaneo;
I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear, but now mine eye seeth thee:
6 Aa le hejeko ty troko vaho misoloho an-deboke naho lavenoke.
Wherefore I abhor [myself], and repent in dust and ashes.
7 Ie fa nilañone’ Iehovà am’ Iobe i tsara rezay, le hoe t’Iehovà amy Elifaze nte-Temane: Miforoforo ama’o naho amo rañe’o roe reo ty haboseko; amy te tsy nitaroña’ areo ty hatò, manahake ty nanoem-pitoroko Iobe.
And it came to pass after Jehovah had spoken these words to Job, that Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, Mine anger is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken rightly of me, like my servant Job.
8 Aa le andrambeso bania fito naho añondrilahy fito, le miheova mb’amy Iobe mpitoroko mb’eo naho mañengà soroñe ho anahareo; le hihalalia’ Iobe mpitoroko naho ho noko i halali’ey vaho tsy hanoeko ama’ areo ty mañeva i hanè’ areoy; amy t’ie tsy nilañoñe ahy an-katò, manahake ty nanoe’ i mpitoroko Iobey.
And now, take for yourselves 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, for ye have not spoken of me rightly, like my servant Job.
9 Aa le nimb’eo t’i Elifaze nte-Temane naho i Bildade nte Sohy naho i Tsofare nte-Naamà le nanoe’ iereo i tsi­nara’ Iehovà am’ iereoy; le ninò’ Iehovà ty halali’ Iobe.
Then Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did according as Jehovah had said unto them; and Jehovah accepted Job.
10 Aa le nampoli’ Iehovà o vara’ Iobeo, ie nihalaly ho a i rañe’e rey; vaho natolo’ Iehovà am’ Iobe indroe’ ty nanaña’e taolo.
And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he had prayed for his friends; and Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11 Nomb’ ama’e mb’eo amy zao o rahalahi’e iabio naho o rahavave’e iabio naho ze hene nahafohiñe aze taolo vaho nitrao-pikama ama’e añ’ anjomba’e ao; nitretreze’ iareo vaho nañohò aze amo fonga haoreañe nafetsa’ Iehovà ama’eo; vaho songa nanolotse ty bogady ama’e naho ty bange volamena.
And all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house, and they condoled with him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him; and every one gave him a piece of money, and every one a golden ring.
12 Nitahie’ Iehovà o figadoñan’ andro’ Iobeo mandikoatse te amy nifotora’ey; ie nanañ’ añondry rai-ale tsy efats’ arivo naho rameva eneñ’ arivo naho katràka mpiharo-bao arivo vaho borìke-vave arivo.
And Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 Nanañ’ anadahy fito re naho anak’ ampela telo.
And he had seven sons and three daughters.
14 Natao’e Iemimae ty añara’ i valoha’ey naho Keziae ty faharoe vaho Keren-Kapokee ty fahatelo.
And he called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
15 Tsy nañirinkiriñeñe amy tane iabiy ty hamozohozo’ i anak’ ampela’ Iobe rey vaho songa tinolon-drae’e lova miharo amo ana-dahi’eo.
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 Ie añe, mbe niveloñe zato-tsy-efapolo taoñe t’Iobe vaho niisa’e o ana’eo naho o zafe’eo pak’an-tariratse fah’efafatse.
And Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations.
17 Aa le nivilasy t’Iobe, androanavy bey, lifots’ andro.
And Job died, old and full of days.
