Књига о Јову 42
1 Тада Јов одговори Господу и рече:
Then Job answered Yahweh:
2 Знам да све можеш, и да се не може смести шта наумиш.
“I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.
3 Ко је то што замрачује савет неразумно? Зато кажем да нисам разумевао; чудесно је то за ме, те не могу знати.
You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’ therefore I have uttered that which I didn’t understand, things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know.
4 Слушај кад узговорим, и кад запитам, кажи ми.
You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’
5 Ушима слушах о Теби, а сада Те око моје види.
I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.
6 Зато поричем, и кајем се у праху и пепелу.
Therefore I abhor myself, and repent 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.
It was so, that after Yahweh had spoken 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 the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
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.
Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.”
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 Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what Yahweh commanded them, and Yahweh accepted Job.
10 И Господ врати што беше узето Јову пошто се помоли за пријатеље своје; и умножи Господ Јову двојином све што беше имао.
Yahweh restored Job’s prosperity when he prayed for his friends. Yahweh 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.
Then all his brothers, all his sisters, and all those who had been of his acquaintance before, came to him and ate bread with him in his house. They comforted him, and consoled him concerning all the evil that Yahweh had brought on him. Everyone also gave him a piece of money, and everyone a ring of gold.
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.
So Yahweh blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.
13 И имаше седам синова и три кћери.
He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14 И првој наде име Јемима, а другој Кесија а трећој Керен-апуха.
He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.
15 И не нахођаше се у свој земљи тако лепих девојака као кћери Јовове, и отац им даде наследство међу браћом њиховом.
In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
16 И после поживе Јов сто и четрдесет година, и виде синове и унуке до четвртог колена.
After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, to four generations.
17 И умре Јов стар и сит живота.
So Job died, being old and full of days.
