< UJobe 42 >

1 UJobe waseyiphendula iNkosi wathi:
A LAILA olelo o Ioba ia Iehova, i aku la,
2 Ngiyazi ukuthi ungakwenza konke, lokuthi kakulacebo elingavinjelwa kuwe.
Ua ike no au, e hiki no ia oe na mea a pau; Aohe manao ou e pono ke keakeaia.
3 Ngubani lo ofiphaza iseluleko engelalwazi? Ngakho ngikhulumile lokho ebengingakuqedisisi, izinto ezimangalisayo kakhulu kimi, ebengingazazi.
Owai ka mea e hoopouli ana i ka olelo ao me ka ike ole? Nolaila, ua hai aku au, aole au i noonoo pono; Na mea kupanaha, aole au i ike.
4 Ake uzwe, ngizakhuluma mina. Ngizakubuza, njalo wenze ngazi.
Ke noi aku nei au ia oe e hoolohe mai, a na'u e olelo aku; E ninau aku au ia oe, a e hoike mai oe ia'u.
5 Ngokuzwa kwendlebe ngikuzwile, kodwa khathesi ilihlo lami liyakubona.
Ua lohe au ia oe ma ka lohe pepeiao, Aka, ano, ke ike nei ko'u maka ia oe.
6 Ngakho-ke ngiyazinenga, ngiyaphenduka ethulini lemlotheni.
Nolaila ke hoowahawaha nei au ia'u iho, Ke mihi hoi au iloko o ka lepo a me ka lehu.
7 Kwasekusithi iNkosi isikhulume lamazwi kuJobe, iNkosi yathi kuElifazi umThemani: Ulaka lwami luyavutha kuwe lakubangane bakho ababili, ngoba kalikhulumanga ngami okuqondileyo njengenceku yami uJobe.
A mahope o ka Iehova olelo ana'ku i keia mau olelo ia Ioba, olelo mai la o Iehova ia Elipaza, no Temana, Ua hoaia ko'u huhu ia oe, a i kau mau hoalauna elua: no ka mea, aole oukou i olelo mai no'u i ka mea pono, e like me ka'u kauwa, o Ioba.
8 Ngakho-ke zithatheleni amajongosi ayisikhombisa lenqama eziyisikhombisa, liye encekwini yami uJobe, lizinikelele umnikelo wokutshiswa, njalo uJobe inceku yami uzalikhulekela; ngoba isibili ngizakwemukela ubuso bakhe, ukuze ngingenzi kini njengobuthutha benu; ngoba kalikhulumanga ngami okuqondileyo njengenceku yami uJobe.
Ano hoi, e lawe oukou no oukou iho i ehiku bipikane, a i ehiku hipakane, a e hele aku i ka'u kauwa ia Ioba, a e kaumaha i mohaikuni no oukou; a e pule aku o Ioba ka'u kauwa no oukou; no ka mea, oia ka'u e maliu ai, o hana aku au ia oukou e like me ka oukou lapuwale; no ka mea, aole oukou i olelo mai no'u i ka mea pono e like me ka'u kauwa, o Ioba.
9 Ngakho bahamba oElifazi umThemani loBilidadi umShuhi loZofari umNahama, benza njengokutsho kweNkosi kubo; njalo iNkosi yemukela ubuso bukaJobe.
A o Elipaza no Temana, o Biledada no Suha, a me Zopara no Naama, hele aku la lakou, a hana aku e like me ka Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia lakou: a maliu mai o Iehova ia Ioba.
10 INkosi yasiphendula ukuthunjwa kukaJobe esekhulekele abangane bakhe; njalo iNkosi yengezelela konke uJobe ayelakho kuze kuphindwe kabili.
A hoololi ae la o Iehova i ke pio ana o Ioba, i ka manawa i pule aku ai ia no kona mau hoalauna: a haawi palua aku la o Iehova i ka Ioba mau mea a pau.
11 Kwasekufika kuye bonke abafowabo labo bonke odadewabo, labo bonke ababemazi mandulo, badla isinkwa laye endlini yakhe, bamkhalela, bamduduza ngakho konke okubi iNkosi eyayimehlisele khona; bamnika ngulowo lalowo uhlamvu lwemali, langulowo lalowo isongo legolide.
Alaila hele mai io Ioba la kona mau hoahanau a pau, a me kona mau kaikuwahine a pau, a me kona poe ike a pau mamua, a ai pu iho la lakou me ia i ka ai ma kona hale; a uwe lakou ia ia, a hooluolu aku ia ia no na mea ino a pau a Iehova i lawe mai ai maluna ona; a haawi aku kela kanaka keia kanaka ia ia i wahi kala, a o kela kanaka keia kanaka i wahi apo gula.
12 INkosi yasibusisa isiphetho sikaJobe okwedlula ukuqala kwakhe; ngoba waba lezimvu ezizinkulungwane ezilitshumi lane, lamakamela azinkulungwane eziyisithupha, lezipane zenkabi eziyinkulungwane, labobabhemi abasikazi abayinkulungwane.
A hoomaikai o Iehova i ka hope o Ioba, mamua o kona mua: no ka mea, he umikumamaha ana tausani hipa, he aono tausani kamelo, a hookahi tausani kaulua bipi, a hookahi tausani hoki wahine.
13 Wasesiba lamadodana ayisikhombisa lamadodakazi amathathu.
Ehiku hoi ana mau keikikane, a ekolu kaikamahine.
14 Wasebiza ibizo leyokuqala wathi nguJemima, lebizo leyesibili wathi nguKeziya, lebizo leyesithathu wathi nguKereni-Hapuki.
A kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o ka mua, o Iemima; a i ka inoa o ka lua, o Kezia; a i ka inoa o ke kolu, o Kerenehapuka.
15 Njalo kakutholakalanga abesifazana abahle njengamadodakazi kaJobe elizweni lonke; loyise wawanika ilifa phakathi kwabanewabo.
Aole i loaa na wahine maikai e like me na kaikamahine a Ioba ma ka aina a pau; a haawi aku ko lakou makuakane i hooilina mawaena o ko lakou mau hoahanau.
16 Lemva kwalokho uJobe waphila iminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amane; wabona amadodana akhe, lamadodana amadodana akhe, kwaze kwaba yizizukulwana ezine.
A mahope o keia, ola iho la o Ioba i na makahiki hookahi haneri a me ke kanaha, a ike aku la ia i kana mau keiki, a me na keiki a kana mau keiki, i eha mau hanauna.
17 UJobe wasesifa, emdala, enele ngezinsuku.
A make iho la o Ioba, he elemakule, a he nui kona mau la.
