Job 42
1 Potem je Job odgovoril Gospodu in rekel:
Then Job answered Jehovah, and said:
2 »Vem, da lahko narediš vsako stvar in da nobena misel ne more biti zadržana pred teboj.
I know that thou canst do every thing, And that no purpose of thine can be hindered.
3 Kdo je tisti, ki skriva nasvet brez spoznanja? Torej sem rekel, da ne razumem. Stvari zame prečudovite, ki jih nisem poznal.
Who is he that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Thus have I uttered what I understood not; Things too wonderful for me, which I knew not:
4 Prisluhni, rotim te in bom govoril. Zahteval bom od tebe in oznani mi.
Hear thou, then, I beseech thee, and I will speak! I will ask thee, and do thou instruct me!
5 Slišal sem o tebi po poslušanju svojega ušesa. Toda sedaj te vidi moje oko.
I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now hath mine eye seen thee.
6 Torej preziram samega sebe in se kesam v prahu in pepelu.«
Wherefore I abhor myself, And repent in dust and ashes.
7 To je bilo tako, da je potem, ko je Gospod te besede govoril Jobu, Gospod rekel Elifázu Temáncu: »Moj bes je vnet zoper tebe in zoper tvoja dva prijatelja, kajti o meni niste govorili stvari, ki je pravilna, kakor je [govoril] moj služabnik Job.
And when Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite: “My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken concerning me that which is right, as hath my servant Job.
8 Zatorej si vzemite k sebi sedem bikcev in sedem ovnov in pojdite k mojemu služabniku Jobu in zase darujte žgalno daritev, moj služabnik Job pa bo molil za vas, kajti njega bom sprejel, da ne bom z vami postopal po vaši neumnosti, v tem, da niste govorili o meni besede, ki je pravilna, kakor moj služabnik Job.«
Take ye, therefore, seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a burnt-offering, and my servant Job shall pray for you; for to him alone will I have regard; that I deal not with you according to your folly. For ye have not spoken concerning me that which is right, as hath my servant Job.”
9 Tako so Elifáz Temánec, Bildád Suhéjec in Cofár Naámčan odšli in storili glede na to, kakor jim je Gospod zapovedal, Gospod pa je sprejel Joba.
So Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did as Jehovah commanded them; and Jehovah had regard to Job.
10 Gospod je obrnil Jobovo ujetništvo, ko je molil za svoje prijatelje. Gospod je dal Jobu tudi dvakrat toliko, kot je imel poprej.
And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends, and Jehovah gave him twice as much as he had before.
11 Potem so prišli k njemu vsi njegovi bratje in vse njegove sestre in vsi, ki so bili poprej izmed njegovih znancev in so v njegovi hiši z njim jedli kruh. Sočustvovali so in ga tolažili glede vsega zla, ki ga je Gospod privedel nadenj. Prav tako mu je vsak človek dal kos denarja in vsakdo uhan iz zlata.
Then came to him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all his former acquaintances, and ate bread with him in his house; and condoled with him, and comforted him over all the evil which Jehovah had brought upon him; and every one gave him a piece of money [[a kesita]], and every one a ring of gold.
12 Tako je Gospod bolj blagoslovil Jobov poznejši konec kakor njegov začetek, kajti imel je štirinajst tisoč ovc, šest tisoč kamel, tisoč jarmov volov in tisoč oslic.
Thus Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than the beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.
13 Imel je tudi sedem sinov in tri hčere.
He had also seven sons, and three daughters.
14 Ime prve je imenoval Golobica, ime druge Dišavka in ime tretje Lepotica.
And he called the name of the first Jemima, of the second Kezia, and of the third Kerenhappuch.
15 Po vsej deželi ni bilo najti tako lepih žensk kakor Jobove hčere in njihov oče jim je dal dediščino med njihovimi brati.
And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them an inheritance among their brethren.
16 Potem je Job živel sto štirideset let in videl svoje sinove in svojih sinov sinove, celó štiri rodove.
And Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
17 Tako je Job umrl, star in izpolnjen z dnevi.
Then Job died, being old and satisfied with days.
