Книга Иова 42

1 Отвещав же Иов, рече ко Господу:

Then Job answered and said to the Lord,

2 вем, яко вся можеши, невозможно же Тебе ничтоже.

I know that you can do all things, and nothing is impossible with you.

3 Кто есть таяй от Тебе совет, щадяй же словеса и от Тебе мнится утаити? Кто же возвестит ми, ихже не ведех, велия и дивная, ихже не знах?

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 Послушай же мене, Господи, да и аз возглаголю: вопрошу же Тя, ты же мя научи:

But hear me, O Lord, that I also may speak: and I will ask you, and do you teach me.

5 слухом убо уха слышах Тя первее, ныне же око мое виде Тя:

I have heard the report of you by the ear before; but now mine eye has seen you.

6 темже укорих себе сам, и истаях, и мню себе землю и пепел.

Therefore I have counted myself vile, and have fainted: and I esteem myself dust and ashes.

7 Бысть же егда изглагола Господь вся глаголголы сия Иову, рече Господь ко Елифазу Феманитину: согрешил еси ты и оба друзие твои: не глаголасте бо предо Мною ничтоже истинно, якоже раб Мои Иов:

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 ныне же возмите седмь телцев и седмь овнов и идите ко рабу Моему Иову, и сотворит жертву о вас: Иов же раб Мой помолится о вас, понеже точию лице его прииму: аще бо не его ради, погубил бых убо вас: не глаголасте бо истины на раба Моего Иова.

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 Отиде же Елифаз Феманитин и Валдад Савхейский и Софар Минейский и сотвориша, якоже повеле им Господь. И отпусти грехи им Иова ради.

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 Господь же возрасти Иова: молящуся же ему и о друзех своих, отпусти им грехи их, и даде Господь сугубая, елика бяху прежде Иову во усугубление.

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 Услышаша же вси братия его и сестры его вся случившаяся ему, и приидоша к нему, и вси елицы знаху его первее: ядше же и пивше у него, утешиша его и дивишася о всех, яже наведе нань Бог: даде же ему кийждо агницу едину и четыре драхмы злата назнаменована.

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 Господь же благослови последняя Иовля, неже прежняя: бяху же скоти его, овец четыренадесять тысящ, велблюдов шесть тысящ, супруг волов тысяща, ослиц стадных тысяща.

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 Родишажеся ему сынове седмь и дщери три:

And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.

14 и нарече первую убо День, вторую же Кассию, третию же Амалфеев Рог:

And he called the first Day, and the second Casia, and the third Amalthaea's horn.

15 и не обретошася подобны в лепоте дщерем Иовлевым в поднебесней: даде же им отец наследие в братии их.

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 amongst their brethren.

16 Поживе же Иов по язве лет сто седмьдесят, всех же лет поживе двести четыредесять осмь. И виде Иов сыны своя и сыны сынов своих, даже до четвертаго рода.

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 И скончася Иов стар и исполнь дний.

And Job died, an old man and full of days.
