Jov 42
1 Tada Jov odgovori Gospodu i reèe:
Then Job answered Yahweh and said,
2 Znam da sve možeš, i da se ne može smesti što naumiš.
“I know that you can do all things, that no purpose of yours can be stopped.
3 Ko je to što zamraèuje savjet nerazumno? Zato kažem da nijesam razumijevao; èudesno je to za me, te ne mogu znati.
'Who is this who without knowledge conceals plans?' Indeed, I have spoken things that I did not understand, things too difficult for me to understand, which I did not know about.
4 Slušaj kad uzgovorim, i kad zapitam, kaži mi.
You said to me, 'Listen, now, and I will speak; I will ask you things, and you will tell me.'
5 Ušima slušah o tebi, a sada te oko moje vidi.
I had heard about you by my ear's hearing, but now my eye sees you.
6 Zato porièem, i kajem se u prahu i pepelu.
So I despise myself; I repent in dust and ashes.”
7 A kad Gospod izgovori one rijeèi Jovu, reèe Gospod Elifasu Temancu: raspalio se gnjev moj na tebe i na dva prijatelja tvoja što ne govoriste o meni pravo kao sluga moj Jov.
It came about that after he had said these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and against your two friends, for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has done.
8 Zato sada uzmite sedam telaca i sedam ovnova, i idite k sluzi mojemu Jovu i prinesite žrtve paljenice za se, i sluga moj Jov neka se pomoli za vas, jer æu doista pogledati na nj da ne uèinim s vama po vašoj ludosti, jer ne govoriste o meni pravo kao sluga moj Jov.
Now therefore, take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering. My servant Job will pray for you, and I will accept his prayer, so that I may not deal with you after your folly. You have not said what is right about me, as my servant Job has done.”
9 I tako otide Elifas Temanac i Vildad Sušanin i Sofar Namaæanin, i uèiniše kako im zapovjedi Gospod. I pogleda Gospod na Jova.
So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as Yahweh had commanded them, and Yahweh accepted Job.
10 I Gospod povrati što bješe uzeto Jovu pošto se pomoli za prijatelje svoje; i umnoži Gospod Jovu dvojinom sve što bješe imao.
When Job prayed for his friends, Yahweh restored his fortunes. Yahweh gave him twice as much as he had possessed before.
11 I doðoše k njemu sva braæa njegova i sve sestre njegove i svi preðašnji znanci njegovi, i jedoše s njim u njegovoj kuæi i žaleæi ga tješiše ga za sve zlo što bješe Gospod pustio na nj, i dadoše mu svaki po novac i po grivnu zlatnu.
Then all Job's brothers, and all his sisters, and all who knew him before, came to him and ate food with him in his house. They showed him sympathy and comforted him for all the disasters that Yahweh had brought upon him, and each of them gave Job a piece of silver and a ring of gold.
12 I Gospod blagoslovi pošljedak Jovov više nego poèetak, te imaše èetrnaest tisuæa ovaca i šest tisuæa kamila i tisuæu jarmova volova i tisuæu magarica.
Yahweh blessed the final end of Job's life more than the first; he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys.
13 I imaše sedam sinova i tri kæeri.
He also had seven sons and three daughters.
14 I prvoj nadje ime Jemima, a drugoj Kesija a treæoj Keren-apuha.
He named the first daughter Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-Happuch.
15 I ne nahoðaše se u svoj zemlji tako lijepijeh djevojaka kao kæeri Jovove, i otac im dade našljedstvo meðu braæom njihovom.
In all the land no women were found as beautiful as Job's daughters. Their father gave them an inheritance along with their brothers.
16 I poslije poživje Jov sto i èetrdeset godina, i vidje sinove i unuke do èetvrtoga koljena.
After this, Job lived 140 years; he saw his sons and his sons' sons, up to four generations.
17 I umrije Jov star i sit života.
Then Job died, being old and full of days.
