Job 42

1 Pagkatapos sumagot si Job kay Yahweh at sinabing,

Then Job, responding to the Lord, said:

2 “Alam kong kaya mong gawin ang lahat ng bagay, na wala kang layunin na mapipigilan.

I know that you are able to do all things, and that no thoughts are hidden from you.

3 Tinanong mo ako, 'Sino ba itong walang nalalaman na nagdadala ng kadiliman sa aking mga plano?' Kaya sinabi ako ang mga bagay na hindi ko naintindihan, mga bagay na napakahirap para maunawaan ko, na hindi ko alam.

So, who is it that would disguise a lack of knowledge as counsel? Therefore, I have been speaking foolishly, about things whose measure exceeds my knowledge.

4 Sinabi mo sa akin, 'Makinig ka, ngayon, at magsasalita ako; magtatanong ako sa iyo ng mga bagay, at sasabihin mo sa akin.'

Listen, and I will speak. I will question you, and you may answer me.

5 Narinig ko na ang tungkol sa iyo sa pandinig ng aking tainga, pero ngayon nakikita ka na ng aking mata.

By paying attention with the ear, I have heard you, but now my eye sees you.

6 Kaya kinamumuhian ko ang sarili ko; nagsisisi ako sa alikabok at abo.”

Therefore, I find myself reprehensible, and I will do penance in embers and ashes.

7 Mangyaring pagkatapos niyang sabihin ang mga salitang ito kay Job, sinabi ni Yahweh kay Elifaz ang Temaneo, “Ang aking poot ay sumiklab laban sa iyo at laban sa dalawa mong kaibigan dahil hindi ninyo sinabi ang mga katotohanan tungkol sa akin katulad ng ginawa ng aking lingkod na si Job.

But after the Lord had finished speaking these words to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Themanite: My wrath has been kindled against you, and against your two friends, because you have not been speaking correctly in my eyes, as my servant Job has done.

8 Kaya ngayon, kumuha kayo ng pitong toro at pitong tupa, pumunta kayo sa aking lingkod na si Job, at mag-alay ng handog na susunugin. Ang aking lingkod na si Job ay ipapanalangin kayo, at tatanggapin ko ang kaniyang panalangin, para hindi ko kayo parusahan dahil sa inyong kamangmangan. Hindi ninyo sinabi ang totoo tungkol sa akin, katulad ng ginawa ng aking lingkod na si Job.”

Therefore, have seven bulls and seven rams brought to you, and go to my servant Job, and offer these as a holocaust for yourselves. But also, my servant Job will pray for you; I will accept his face, so that foolishness will not be imputed to you. For you have not been speaking correctly about me, as my servant Job has done.

9 Kaya sila Elifaz ang Temaneo, Bildad na Suhita, at Zofar ang Naamita ay umalis at ginawa kung ano ang inutos ni Yahweh sa kanila, at tinanggap ni Yahweh si Job.

So Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Zophar the Naamathite departed, and they did just as the Lord had spoken to them, and the Lord accepted the face of Job.

10 Nang ipinanalangin ni Job ang kaniyang mga kaibigan, ibinalik ni Yahweh ang yaman niya. Binigay ni Yahweh ang doble ng kung ano ang pag-aari niya dati.

Likewise, the Lord was moved by the repentance of Job, when he prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave to Job twice as much as he had before.

11 Pagkatapos lahat ng kapatid na lalaki ni Job, at lahat ng kaniyang kapatid na babae, at lahat silang naging kasama niya dati—pumunta sila sa kaniya at kumain sa bahay niya. Nakidalamhati sila sa kaniya at inaliw siya dahil sa lahat ng mga sakuna na dinala sa kaniya ni Yahweh. Ang bawat isa ay binigyan si Job ng piraso ng pilak at gintong singsing.

Yet all his brethren came to him, and all his sisters, and everyone who had known him before, and they ate bread with him in his house. They also shook their heads over him and comforted him, because of all the bad things that God had inflicted on him. And each one of them gave him one female sheep, and one earring of gold.

12 Mas pinagpala ni Yahweh ang huling bahagi ng buhay ni Job kaysa sa una; nagkaroon siya ng labing-apat na libong tupa, anim na libong kamelyo, isang libong pamatok ng baka, at isang libong babaeng asno.

And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job even more than his beginning. And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand pairs of oxen, and a thousand she-donkeys.

13 Nagkaroon din siya ng pitong anak na lalaki at tatlong anak na babae.

And he had seven sons and three daughters.

14 Pinangalanan niya ang unang anak na babae na Jemima, ang pangalawa Kezia, at ang pangatlo Keren-hapuc.

And he called the name of one, Daylight, and the name of the second, Cinnamon, and the name of the third, Horn of Cosmetics.

15 Sa buong lupain, walang babae ang matatagpuang kasing ganda ng mga anak ni Job. Binigyan sila ni Job ng pamana kasama ng kanilang mga kapatid na lalaki.

And, in the whole world, there were not found women so beautiful as the daughters of Job. And so their father gave them an inheritance along with their brothers.

16 Pagkatapos nito, nabuhay pa si Job ng 140 taon; nakita niya ang kaniyang mga anak na lalaki at ang mga anak ng mga anak niya, hanggang sa apat na salinlahi.

But Job lived long after these events, for a hundred and forty years, and he saw his children, and his children’s children, all the way to the fourth generation,

17 Pagkatapos namatay si Job, sa katandaan at puspos ng mga kaarawan.

and he died an old man and full of days.
