Iyyoob 42
1 Iyyoobis akkana jedhee Waaqayyoof deebii kenne:
Then Job replied to Yahweh. [He said],
2 “Ani akka ati waan hunda hojjechuu dandeessu nan beeka; karoorri kee tokko iyyuu karaatti hin hafu.
“I know that you can do everything and that no one can stop you from doing what you want to do.
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 me], ‘(Who are you, who by speaking ignorantly, question what I plan to do?/You have no right to question what I plan to do by speaking ignorantly.)’ [RHQ] It is true that I spoke about things that I did not understand, things that are very wonderful/marvelous, and therefore I am not able to know them.
4 “Ati akkana jetteerta; ‘Ani nan dubbadhaa mee dhaggeeffadhu; ani sin gaafadhaa, ati immoo naaf deebisi.’
You said to me, ‘Listen while I talk to you. I want to ask you some questions, so prepare yourself to answer them.’
5 Gurri koo waaʼee kee dhagaʼee ture; amma garuu iji koo si argeera.
I had heard about you previously, but now [it is as though] I have seen you with my own eyes.
6 Kanaafuu ani of tuffadhee biyyoo fi daaraa keessa taaʼee qalbii nan jijjiirradha.”
Therefore I (am ashamed of/withdraw) what I said, and I sit in dust and ashes to show that I am sorry [for what I said].”
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 Yahweh said these things to Job, he said to Eliphaz, “I am angry with you and your two friends, [Bildad and Zophar], because what my servant Job said about me was right/true, but what you have spoken about me was not right/true.
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 you must take to Job seven young bulls and seven rams and [kill them and] burn them on the altar as a sacrifice for yourselves. Then Job will pray for you, and I will do what he requests me to do, [and I will forgive you for speaking wrongly about me]. I will not punish you, even though you deserve to be punished, because what you said about me was not right/true, but what Job said about me was right/true.”
9 Kanaafuu Eliifaaz Teemaanichi, Bildaad Shuhaahichii fi Zoofaari Naaʼimaatichi waan Waaqayyo isaanitti hime sana godhan; Waaqayyos kadhannaa Iyyoob dhagaʼe.
So Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar did what Yahweh commanded them to do, and Yahweh did what Job requested him to do [for the three of them].
10 Erga Iyyoob michoota isaatiif kadhatee booddee Waaqayyo deebisee isa sooromsee qabeenya inni duraan qabu sana harka lama kenneef.
After Job prayed for his three friends, Yahweh [healed him and] caused him to become rich again. Yahweh gave him twice as many things as he had before.
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.
Then all his brothers and sisters, and all the people who had known him before, came to his house, and they ate a meal together. They consoled/comforted [DOU] him because of all the troubles that Yahweh had allowed him to experience.
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.
Then Yahweh blessed Job in the second half of his life more than he had blessed him in the first half of his life. He now acquired/owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 2,000 oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
13 Akkasumas ilmaan torbaa fi intallan sadii qaba ture.
And he also had seven [more] sons and three [more] daughters.
14 Intala isaa jalqabaa Yemiimaa, ishee lammaffaa Keziiyaa, ishee sadaffaa immoo Qeren-Haphuuk jedhee moggaase.
He named the first daughter Jemimah, he named the second daughter Keziah, and he named the third daughter Keren-Happuch.
15 Biyya sana hunda keessatti dubartoonni akka intallan Iyyoob babbareedan eessattuu hin argamne. Abbaan isaaniis obboloota isaanii gidduutti dhaala kenneef.
In all of [Uz] land there were no young women who were as beautiful as the daughters of Job, and Job declared that they would inherit some of his possessions, just like their brothers would inherit some.
16 Iyyoobis ergasii waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi afurtama jiraate; innis hamma dhaloota afuriitti ijoollee fi ijoollee ijoollee isaa arge.
After that, Job lived 140 more years. Before he died, he (saw/enjoyed being with) his great-great-grandchildren.
17 Innis akkasiin bara dheeraa jiraatee dulloomee duʼe.
He was very old [DOU] when he died.
