< Jobho 42 >
1 Ipapo Jobho akapindura kuna Jehovha akati:
Then Job answered and said to the Lord,
2 “Ndinoziva kuti imi munogona kuita zvose; hapana urongwa hwenyu hungakoneswa.
I know that you can do all things, and nothing is impossible with you.
3 Mabvunza kuti, ‘Ndianiko uyu anodzikatira zano rangu iye asina zivo?’ Zvirokwazvo ndakataura pamusoro pezvinhu zvandisinganzwisisi, zvinhu zvinoshamisa kwazvo kuti ini ndizvizive.
For who is he that hides counsel from you? or who keeps back his words, and thinks to hide them from you? and who will tell me what I knew not, great and wonderful things which I understood not?
4 “Mati imi, ‘Chinzwa zvino, uye ini ndichataura; ndichakubvunza iwe, uye iwe uchandipindura.’
But hear me, O Lord, that I also may speak: and I will ask you, and do you teach me.
5 Nzeve dzangu dzakanga dzanzwa nezvenyu, asi zvino meso angu akuonai imi.
I have heard the report of you by the ear before; but now mine eye has seen you.
6 Naizvozvo ndinozvishora pachangu, uye ndinotendeuka hangu muguruva nomumadota.”
Therefore I have counted myself vile, and have fainted: and I esteem myself dust and ashes.
7 Jehovha akati areva zvinhu izvi kuna Jobho, akati kuna Erifazi muTemani, “Ndakakutsamwira iwe neshamwari dzako mbiri, nokuti hamuna kutaura zvakarurama pamusoro pangu, sezvakaitwa nomuranda wangu Jobho.
And it came to pass after the Lord had spoken all these words to Job, [that] the Lord said to Eliphaz the Thaemanite, You have sinned, and your two friends: for you have not said anything true before me, as my servant Job [has].
8 Saka zvino chitorai hando nomwe namakondobwe manomwe mugoenda kumuranda wangu Jobho mundozvibayira sechipiriso chenyu chinopiswa. Muranda wangu Jobho achakunyengetererai, uye ini ndichagamuchira munyengetero wake ndigorega kukuitirai zvakafanira upenzi hwenyu. Hamuna kutaura zvakarurama pamusoro pangu, somuranda wangu Jobho.”
Now then take seven bullocks, and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and he shall offer a burnt offering for you. And my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will only accept him: for but his sake, I would have destroyed you, for you have not spoken the truth against my servant Job.
9 Saka Erifazi muTemani, Bhiridhadhi muShuhi naZofari muNamaati vakaita zvavakaudzwa naJehovha; uye Jehovha akagamuchira munyengetero waJobho.
So Eliphaz the Thaemanite, and Baldad the Sauchite, and Sophar the Minaean, went and did as the Lord commanded them: and he pardoned their sin for the sake of Job.
10 Shure kwokunge Jobho anyengeterera shamwari dzake, Jehovha akaita kuti abudirirezve akamupa zvakapetwa kaviri kupfuura zvaakanga anazvo kare.
And the Lord prospered Job: and when he prayed also for his friends, he forgave them [their] sin: and the Lord gave Job twice as much, even the double of what he had before.
11 Vanunʼuna vake vose nehanzvadzi dzake navose vaimuziva vakauya vakadya pamwe chete naye mumba make. Vakamuvaraidza uye vakamunyaradza pamusoro pamatambudziko akanga aiswa naJehovha pamusoro pake, uye mumwe nomumwe wavo akamupa chidimbu chesirivha nemhete yegoridhe.
And all his brethren and his sisters heard all that had happened to him, and they came to him, and [so did] all that had known him from the first: and they ate and drank with him, and comforted him, and wondered at all that the Lord had brought upon him: and each one gave him a lamb, and four drachmas' weight of gold, even of unstamped [gold].
12 Jehovha akaropafadza kupedzisira kwoupenyu hwaJobho kupfuura kutanga. Akanga ana makwai zviuru gumi nezvina, zviuru zvitanhatu zvengamera, nenzombe dzingasungwa pamajoko chiuru nembongoro chiuru.
And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job, [more] than the beginning: and his cattle were fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, a thousand she-asses of the pastures.
13 Uye akazovawo navanakomana vanomwe navanasikana vatatu.
And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
14 Mwanasikana wake wokutanga akamutumidza zita rokuti Jemima, wechipiri akamuti Kezia uye wechitatu akamutumidza kuti Kereni-Hapuki.
And he called the first Day, and the second Casia, and the third Amalthaea's horn.
15 Panyika yose hapana kuwanikwa vakadzi vakanaka kupinda vanasikana vaJobho, uye baba vavo vakavapa nhaka pamwe chete nehanzvadzi dzavo.
And there were not found in comparison with the daughters of Job, fairer [women] than they in all the world: and their father gave them an inheritance among their brethren.
16 Shure kwaizvozvi, akazorarama makore zana namakumi mana; akaona vana vake navana vavana vake kusvikira parudzi rwechina.
And Job lived after [his] affliction a hundred and seventy years: and all the years he lived were two hundred and forty: and Job saw his sons and his sons' sons, the fourth generation.
17 Nokudaro akafa, akwegura ava namakore mazhinji.
And Job died, an old man and full of days.
