Књига о Јову 42
1 Тада Јов одговори Господу и рече:
Then Job answered the Lord, and said:
2 Знам да све можеш, и да се не може смести шта наумиш.
I know that thou canst do all things, and no thought is hid from thee.
3 Ко је то што замрачује савет неразумно? Зато кажем да нисам разумевао; чудесно је то за ме, те не могу знати.
Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have spoken unwisely, and things that above measure exceeded my knowledge.
4 Слушај кад узговорим, и кад запитам, кажи ми.
Hear, and I will speak: I will ask thee, and do thou tell me.
5 Ушима слушах о Теби, а сада Те око моје види.
With the hearing of the ear, I have heard thee, but now my eye seeth thee.
6 Зато поричем, и кајем се у праху и пепелу.
Therefore I reprehend myself, and do penance in dust and ashes.
7 А кад Господ изговори оне речи Јову, рече Господ Елифасу Теманцу: Распалио се гнев мој на тебе и на два пријатеља твоја што не говористе о мени право као слуга мој Јов.
And after the Lord had spoken these words to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Themanite: My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends, because you have not spoken the thing that is right before my, as my servant Job hath.
8 Зато сада узмите седам телаца и седам овнова, и идите к слузи мом Јову и принесите жртве паљенице за се, и слуга мој Јов нека се помоли за вас, јер ћу доиста погледати на њ да не учиним с вама по вашој лудости, јер не говористе о мени право као слуга мој Јов.
Take unto you therefore seven oxen, and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a holocaust: and my servant Job shall pray for you: his face I will accept, that folly be not imputed to you: for you have not spoken right things before me, as my servant Job hath.
9 И тако отиде Елифас Теманац и Вилдад Сушанин и Софар Намаћанин, и учинише како им заповеди Господ. И погледа Господ на Јова.
So Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Sophar the Naamathite went, and did as the Lord had spoken to them, and the Lord accepted the face of Job.
10 И Господ врати што беше узето Јову пошто се помоли за пријатеље своје; и умножи Господ Јову двојином све што беше имао.
The Lord also was turned at the penance of Job, when he prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11 И дођоше к њему сва браћа његова и све сестре његове и сви пређашњи знанци његови, и једоше с њим у његовој кући и жалећи га тешише га за све зло што беше Господ пустио на њ, и дадоше му сваки по новац и по гривну златну.
And all his brethren came to him, and all his sisters, and all that knew him before, and they ate bread with him in his house: and bemoaned him, and comforted him upon all the evil that God had brought upon him. And every man gave him one ewe, and one earring of fold.
12 И Господ благослови последак Јовов више него почетак, те имаше четрнаест хиљада оваца и шест хиљада камила и хиљаду јармова волова и хиљаду магарица.
And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
13 И имаше седам синова и три кћери.
And he had seven sons, and three daughters.
14 И првој наде име Јемима, а другој Кесија а трећој Керен-апуха.
And he called the names of one Dies, and the name of the second Cassia, and the name of the third Cornustibil.
15 И не нахођаше се у свој земљи тако лепих девојака као кћери Јовове, и отац им даде наследство међу браћом њиховом.
And there were not found in all the earth women so beautiful as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
16 И после поживе Јов сто и четрдесет година, и виде синове и унуке до четвртог колена.
And Job lived after these things, a hundred and forty years, and he saw his children, and his children’s children, unto the fourth generation,
17 И умре Јов стар и сит живота.
and he died an old man, and full of days.
