Job 1
1 May isang lalaki sa lupain ng Uz na ang pangalan ay Job; walang maipipintas kay Job at siya ay matuwid, may takot siya sa Diyos at tumatalikod sa anumang kasamaan.
There was a certain man in the land of Ausis, whose name [was] Job; and than man was true, blameless, righteous, [and] godly, abstaining from everything evil.
2 Binigyan siya ng pitong anak na lalaki at tatlong anak na babae.
And he had seven sons and three daughters.
3 May pag-aari siyang pitong libong mga tupa, tatlong libong kamelyo, limang daang pares ng mga baka, at limang daang mga asno at napakaraming mga lingkod. Ang lalaking ito ang pinaka-dakila sa lahat ng tao sa Silangan.
And his cattle consisted of seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred she-asses in the pastures, and a very great household, and he had a great husbandry on the earth; and that man was [most] noble of the [men] of the east.
4 Sa bawat araw na may kani-kaniyang pagdiriwang ang mga anak na lalaki, ipinapatawag nila ang kanilang tatlong kapatid na babae para kumain at uminom kasama nila.
And his sons visiting one another prepared a banquet every day, taking with them also their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
5 Pagkatapos ng mga araw ng pista, sila ay ipinapatawag at muli silang itatalaga ni Job sa Diyos. Babangon siya nang maagang-maaga at mag-aalay ng sinunog na handog para sa bawat kaniyang mga anak, dahil iniisip niya na, “Marahil nagkasala ang aking mga anak at isinumpa ang Diyos sa kanilang mga puso.” Ito ay laging ginagawa ni Job.
And when the days of the banquet were completed, Job sent and purified them, having risen up in the morning, and offered sacrifices for them, according to their number, and one calf for a sin-offering for their souls: for Job said, Lest perhaps my sons have thought evil in their minds against God. Thus, then Job did continually.
6 At dumating naman ang isang araw para humarap ang mga anak ng Diyos kay Yahweh, at si Satanas ay dumalo kasama nila.
And it came to pass on a day, that behold, the angels of God came to stand before the Lord, and the devil came with them.
7 Ang tanong ni Yahweh kay Satanas, “Saan ka naman nanggaling?” Sumagot si Satanas kay Yahweh, “Galing ako sa isang paglalakad-lakad sa mundo, nagpabalik-balik ako rito.”
And the Lord said to the devil, Whence are you come? And the devil answered the Lord, and said, I am come from compassing the earth, and walking up and down in the world.
8 Nagtanong muli si Yahweh, “Ano naman ang masasabi mo sa lingkod kong si Job? Dahil wala siyang katulad sa mundong ito, walang maipipintas at tapat na tao, may takot sa Diyos at tumatalikod sa lahat ng kasamaan.”
And the Lord said to him, Hast you diligently considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a man blameless, true, godly, abstaining from everything evil?
9 Saka sumagot si Satanas kay Yahweh, “Basta na lang ba magkakaroon ng takot sa iyo si Job nang walang kadahilanan?”
Then the devil answered, and said before the Lord, Does Job worship the Lord for nothing?
10 Hindi ka ba gumawa ng bakod sa kaniyang paligid, sa paligid ng kaniyang bahay, at sa lahat ng kaniyang mga pag-aari? Pinagpala mo ang kaniyang hanap-buhay at pinarami mo ang kaniyang kayamanan.
Hast you not made a hedge about him, and about his household, and all his possessions round about? and have you not blessed the works of his hands, and multiplied his cattle upon the land?
11 Pero iunat mo ang iyong kamay laban sa kaniyang mga pag-aari, at makikita mo na itatanggi ka niya sa iyong harapan.
But put forth your hand, and touch all that he has: verily he will bless you to [your] face.
12 Sinabi ni Yahweh sa kaniya, “Makinig ka, ang lahat ng kaniyang pag-aari ay hawakan mo, pero huwag mo siyang pagbubuhatan ng kamay.” Saka umalis si Satanas sa presensiya ni Yahweh.
Then the Lord said to the devil, Behold, I give into your hand all that he has, but touch not himself. So the devil went out from the presence of the Lord.
13 Dumating ang isang araw habang nagkakainan at nag-iinuman ang kaniyang mga anak sa bahay ng kanilang panganay na kapatid,
And it came to pass on a certain day, that Job's sons and his daughters were drinking wine in the house of their elder brother.
14 isang mensahero ang pumunta kay Job at nagbalita, “Habang ang mga baka ay nag-aararo at ang mga asno ay nanginginain sa kanilang tabi;
And, behold, there came a messenger to Job, and said to him, The yokes of oxen were ploughing, and the she-asses were feeding near them;
15 lumusob ang mga Sabano at tinangay sila. Pinatay nga nila ang ibang mga lingkod gamit ang espada; ako lang ang nag-iisang nakatakas para ibalita sa iyo.”
and the spoilers came and took them for a prey, and killed the servants with the sword; and I having escaped alone am come to tell you.
16 Habang siya ay nagsasalita pa, dumating ang isa pang lingkod at nagbalita. “Umulan ng apoy ng Diyos mula sa langit at tinupok ang mga tupa kasama na ang mga lingkod; at ako lang ang tanging nakaligtas para sabihin sa iyo.”
While he was yet speaking, there came another messenger, and said to Job, Fire has fallen from heaven, and burnt up the sheep, and devoured the shepherds like wise; and I having escaped alone am come to tell you.
17 Habang siya rin ay nagsasalita, may dumating pang isang lingkod at nagbalitang “Gumawa ng tatlong pangkat ang mga Caldea, nilusob ang mga kamelyo, at tinangay silang lahat. Totoo ito, at pinatay pa nila ang mga lingkod gamit ang espada, at ako lang ang nakaligtas para ibalita sa iyo.”
While he was yet speaking, there came another messenger, and said to Job, The horsemen formed three companies against us, and surrounded the camels, and took them for a prey, and killed the servants with the sword; and I only escaped, and am come to tell you.
18 Habang siya ay nagsasalita dumating ang isa pa at nagbalitang, “Nagkakainan at nag-iinuman ng alak ang iyong mga anak sa bahay ng kanilang panganay na kapatid.
While he is yet speaking, another messenger comes, saying to Job, While your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking with their elder brother,
19 Isang malakas na hangin ang umihip mula sa disyerto at giniba ang apat na haligi ng bahay, nadaganan nito ang mga kabataan, at namatay silang lahat, at ako na lang ang nakatakas para sabihin ito sa iyo.”
suddenly a great wind came on from the desert, and caught the four corners of the house, and the house fell upon your children, and they are dead; and I have escaped alone, and am come to tell you.
20 Napatayo si Job, pinunit ang kaniyang damit, inahit ang kaniyang buhok, nagpatirapa sa lupa at sinamba ang Diyos.”
So Job arose, and tore his garments, and shaved the hair of his head, and fell on the earth, and worshipped,
21 Sabi niya, “Hubad akong lumabas sa sinapupunan ng aking ina, hubad din akong babalik doon. Si Yahweh ang nagbigay, si Yahweh rin ang babawi; ang pangalan nawa ng Diyos ang mapapurihan.”
and said, I myself came forth naked from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there; the Lord gave, the Lord has taken away: as it seemed good to the Lord, so has it come to pass; blessed be the name of the Lord.
22 Sa lahat ng mga pangyayaring ito, hindi nagkasala si Job at hindi siya naging hangal para akusahan ang Diyos.
In all these events that befell him Job sinned not at all before the Lord, and did not impute folly to God.
