Jó 42
1 Então respondeu Job ao Senhor, e disse:
Then Job replied to Yahweh. [He said],
2 Bem sei eu que tudo podes, e nenhum dos teus pensamentos pode ser impedido.
“I know that you can do everything and that no one can stop you from doing what you want to do.
3 Quem é aquelle, dizes tu, que sem conhecimento encobre o conselho? por isso relatei o que não entendia; coisas que para mim eram maravilhosissimas, e eu as não entendia.
[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 Escuta-me pois, e eu fallarei: eu te perguntarei, e tu me ensinas.
You said to me, ‘Listen while I talk to you. I want to ask you some questions, so prepare yourself to answer them.’
5 Com o ouvido das orelhas te ouvi, mas agora te vê o meu olho.
I had heard about you previously, but now [it is as though] I have seen you with my own eyes.
6 Por isso me abomino e me arrependo no pó e na cinza.
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 Succedeu pois que, acabando o Senhor de fallar a Job aquellas palavras, o Senhor disse a Eliphaz, o temanita: A minha ira se accendeu contra ti, e contra os teus dois amigos; porque não fallaste de mim o que era recto, como o meu servo Job.
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 Tomae pois sete bezerros e sete carneiros, e ide ao meu servo Job, e offerecei holocaustos por vós, e o meu servo Job orará por vós: porque devéras a elle acceitarei, para que vos não trate conforme a vossa loucura; porque vós não fallastes de mim o que era recto como o meu servo Job.
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 Então foram Eliphaz, o temanita, e Bildad, o suhita, e Sofar, o naamathita, e fizeram como o Senhor lhes dissera: e o Senhor acceitou a face de Job.
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 E o Senhor virou o captiveiro de Job, quando orava pelos seus amigos: e o Senhor accrescentou a Job outro tanto em dobro, a tudo quanto d'antes possuia.
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 Então vieram a elle todos os seus irmãos, e todas as suas irmãs, e todos quantos d'antes o conheceram, e comeram com elle pão em sua casa, e se condoeram d'elle, e o consolaram ácerca de todo o mal que o Senhor lhe havia enviado: e cada um d'elles lhe deu uma peça de dinheiro, e cada um um pendente de oiro.
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 E assim abençoou o Senhor ao ultimo estado de Job, mais do que o primeiro: porque teve quatorze mil ovelhas, e seis mil camelos, e mil juntas de bois, e mil jumentas.
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 Tambem teve sete filhos e tres filhas.
And he also had seven [more] sons and three [more] daughters.
14 E chamou o nome da primeira Jemima, e o nome da outra Cassia, e o nome da terceira Keren-happuch.
He named the first daughter Jemimah, he named the second daughter Keziah, and he named the third daughter Keren-Happuch.
15 E em toda a terra não se acharam mulheres tão formosas como as filhas de Job; e seu pae lhes deu herança entre seus irmãos.
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 E depois d'isto viveu Job cento e quarenta annos: e viu a seus filhos, e aos filhos de seus filhos, até á quarta geração.
After that, Job lived 140 more years. Before he died, he (saw/enjoyed being with) his great-great-grandchildren.
17 Então morreu Job, velho e farto de dias.
He was very old [DOU] when he died.
