< Iyyoob 42 >

1 Iyyoobis akkana jedhee Waaqayyoof deebii kenne:
Then Job replied to the LORD:
2 “Ani akka ati waan hunda hojjechuu dandeessu nan beeka; karoorri kee tokko iyyuu karaatti hin hafu.
“I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted.
3 Ati, ‘Namni beekumsa malee gorsa koo dhoksu kun eenyu?’ jettee gaafatte. Ani dhugumaan waan naaf hin galin, waan dinqii natti taʼe kan ani hin beekin dubbadheera.
You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.
4 “Ati akkana jetteerta; ‘Ani nan dubbadhaa mee dhaggeeffadhu; ani sin gaafadhaa, ati immoo naaf deebisi.’
You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform Me.’
5 Gurri koo waaʼee kee dhagaʼee ture; amma garuu iji koo si argeera.
My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.
6 Kanaafuu ani of tuffadhee biyyoo fi daaraa keessa taaʼee qalbii nan jijjiirradha.”
Therefore I retract my words, and I repent in dust and ashes.”
7 Waaqayyo erga waan kana Iyyoobitti dubbatee booddee Eliifaaz Teemaanichaan akkana jedhe; “Sababii isin akka Iyyoob garbichi koo dubbate sana waaʼee koo waan qajeelaa hin dubbatiniif dheekkamsi koo siʼii fi michoota kee lamaanitti bobaʼeera.
After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and your two friends. For you have not spoken about Me accurately, as My servant Job has.
8 Kanaafuu isin amma jiboota torbaa fi korbeeyyii hoolaa torba fuudhaatii gara garbicha koo Iyyoob dhaqaatii waaʼee ofii keessaniitiif aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessaa. Iyyoob garbichi koo isinii kadhata; ani kadhannaa isaa nan dhagaʼa; akka balleessaa keessaniittis isinitti hin muru. Isin akka Iyyoob garbichi koo dubbate sana waaʼee koo waan qajeelaa hin dubbanneetii.”
So now, take seven bulls and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and sacrifice a burnt offering for yourselves. Then My servant Job will pray for you, for I will accept his prayer and not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken accurately about Me, as My servant Job has.”
9 Kanaafuu Eliifaaz Teemaanichi, Bildaad Shuhaahichii fi Zoofaari Naaʼimaatichi waan Waaqayyo isaanitti hime sana godhan; Waaqayyos kadhannaa Iyyoob dhagaʼe.
So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD had told them; and the LORD accepted Job’s request.
10 Erga Iyyoob michoota isaatiif kadhatee booddee Waaqayyo deebisee isa sooromsee qabeenya inni duraan qabu sana harka lama kenneef.
After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his prosperity and doubled his former possessions.
11 Obboloonni isaa, obboleettonni isaa hundinuu fi warri dur isa beekan hundi dhufanii mana isaatti isa wajjin nyaatan. Isaanis sababii rakkina Waaqayyo isatti fide hundaatiif isaaf gaddanii isa jajjabeessan; tokkoon tokkoon isaaniis meetii fi qubeelaa warqee kennaniif.
All his brothers and sisters and prior acquaintances came and dined with him in his house. They consoled him and comforted him over all the adversity that the LORD had brought upon him. And each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring.
12 Waaqayyos kan duraa caalaa jireenya Iyyoob kan fuul duraa eebbise. Iyyoobis hoolaa kuma kudha afur, gaala kuma jaʼa, qotiyyoo kuma lamaa fi harree dhaltuu kuma tokko qaba ture.
So the LORD blessed Job’s latter days more than his first. He owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
13 Akkasumas ilmaan torbaa fi intallan sadii qaba ture.
And he also had seven sons and three daughters.
14 Intala isaa jalqabaa Yemiimaa, ishee lammaffaa Keziiyaa, ishee sadaffaa immoo Qeren-Haphuuk jedhee moggaase.
He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch.
15 Biyya sana hunda keessatti dubartoonni akka intallan Iyyoob babbareedan eessattuu hin argamne. Abbaan isaaniis obboloota isaanii gidduutti dhaala kenneef.
No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters could be found in all the land, and their father granted them an inheritance among their brothers.
16 Iyyoobis ergasii waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi afurtama jiraate; innis hamma dhaloota afuriitti ijoollee fi ijoollee ijoollee isaa arge.
After this, Job lived 140 years and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation.
17 Innis akkasiin bara dheeraa jiraatee dulloomee duʼe.
And so Job died, old and full of years.
