Job 1
1 May isang lalake sa lupain ng Uz, na ang pangalan ay Job; at ang lalaking yaon ay sakdal at matuwid, at natatakot sa Dios, at humihiwalay sa kasamaan.
There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.
2 At may ipinanganak sa kaniya na pitong anak na lalake at tatlong anak na babae.
And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters.
3 Ang kaniyang pag-aari naman ay pitong libong tupa, at tatlong libong kamelyo, at limang daang magkatuwang na baka, at limang daang asnong babae, at isang totoong malaking sangbahayan; na anopa't ang lalaking ito ay siyang pinaka dakila sa lahat na mga anak ng silanganan.
His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children of the east.
4 At ang kaniyang mga anak ay nagsiyaon at nagsipagdaos ng kapistahan sa bahay ng bawa't isa sa kanikaniyang kaarawan; at sila'y nangagsugo, at ipinatawag ang kanilang tatlong kapatid na babae upang magsikain at magsiinom na kasalo nila.
And his sons went and held a feast in the house of each one upon his day; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
5 At nangyari, nang makaraan ang mga kaarawan ng kanilang pagpipista, na si Job ay nagsugo, at pinapagbanal sila, at bumangong maaga sa kinaumagahan, at naghandog ng mga handog na susunugin ayon sa bilang nilang lahat: sapagka't sinabi ni Job, Marahil ang aking mga anak ay nangagkasala, at itinakuwil ang Dios sa kanilang mga puso. Ganito ang ginawa ni Job na palagi.
And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burn offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and renounced God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
6 Isang araw nga nang ang mga anak ng Dios ay magsiparoon na magsiharap sa Panginoon, na si Satanas ay naparoon din naman na kasama nila.
Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
7 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Satanas, Saan ka nanggaling? Nang magkagayo'y sumagot si Satanas sa Panginoon, at nagsabi, Sa pagpaparoo't parito sa lupa, at sa pagmamanhik manaog doon.
And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
8 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Satanas, Iyo bang pinansin ang aking lingkod na si Job? sapagka't walang gaya niya sa lupa, na sakdal at matuwid na lalake, na natatakot sa Dios at humihiwalay sa kasamaan.
And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job? for there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil.
9 Nang magkagayo'y sumagot si Satanas sa Panginoon, at nagsabi, Natatakot ba ng walang kabuluhan si Job sa Dios?
Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
10 Hindi mo ba kinulong siya, at ang kaniyang sangbahayan, at ang lahat niyang tinatangkilik, sa bawa't dako? iyong pinagpala ang gawa ng kaniyang mga kamay, at ang kaniyang pag-aari ay dumami sa lupain.
Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath, on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
11 Nguni't pagbuhatan mo siya ng iyong kamay ngayon, at galawin mo ang lahat niyang tinatangkilik, at itatakuwil ka niya ng mukhaan,
But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will renounce thee to thy face.
12 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Satanas, Narito, lahat niyang tinatangkilik ay nangasa iyong kapangyarihan; siya lamang ang huwag mong pagbuhatan ng iyong kamay. Sa gayo'y lumabas si Satanas na mula sa harapan ng Panginoon.
And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.
13 At nangyari isang araw, nang ang kaniyang mga anak na lalake at babae ay nagsisikain at nagsisiinom ng alak sa bahay ng kanilang kapatid na panganay.
And it fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house,
14 Na dumating ang isang sugo kay Job, at nagsabi, Ang mga baka ay nagsisipagararo, at ang mga asno ay nagsisisabsab sa siping nila:
that there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:
15 At dinaluhong ng mga Sabeo, at pinagdadala; oo, kanilang pinatay ng talim ng tabak ang mga bataan; at ako lamang ang nakatanang magisa upang magsaysay sa iyo.
and the Sabeans fell [upon them], and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
16 Samantalang siya'y nagsasalita pa, ay dumating naman ang iba, at nagsabi, Ang apoy ng Dios ay nalaglag mula sa langit, at sinunog ang mga tupa, at ang mga bataan, at pinagsupok; at ako lamang ang nakatanang magisa upang magsaysay sa iyo.
While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
17 Samantalang siya'y nagsasalita pa, ay dumating naman ang iba, at nagsabi, Ang mga Caldeo ay nagtatlong pulutong, at dumaluhong sa mga kamelyo, at pinagdadala, oo, at pinatay ng talim ng tabak ang mga bataan; at ako lamang ang nakatanang magisa upang magsaysay sa iyo.
While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have taken them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
18 Samantalang siya'y nagsasalita pa, ay dumating naman ang iba, at nagsabi, Ang iyong mga anak na lalake at babae ay nagsisikain at nagsisiinom ng alak sa bahay ng kanilang kapatid na panganay:
While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house:
19 At, narito, dumating ang malakas na hangin na mula sa ilang, at hinampas ang apat na sulok ng bahay, at lumagpak sa mga binata, at sila'y nangamatay; at ako lamang ang nakatanang magisa upang magsaysay sa iyo.
and, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
20 Nang magkagayo'y bumangon si Job, at hinapak ang kaniyang balabal, at inahitan ang kaniyang ulo, at nagpatirapa sa lupa at sumamba;
Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped;
21 At sinabi niya, Hubad akong lumabas sa bahay-bata ng aking ina, at hubad na babalik ako roon: ang Panginoon ang nagbigay, at ang Panginoon ang nagalis; purihin ang pangalan ng Panginoon.
and he said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
22 Sa lahat ng ito ay hindi nagkasala si Job, ni inari mang mangmang ang Dios.
In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God with foolishness.
