< Eyüp 42 >
1 O zaman Eyüp RAB'bi şöyle yanıtladı:
Then Job replied to Yahweh. [He said],
2 “Senin her şeyi yapabileceğini biliyorum, Hiçbir amacına engel olunmaz.
“I know that you can do everything and that no one can stop you from doing what you want to do.
3 ‘Tasarımı bilgisizce karartan bu adam kim?’ diye sordun. Kuşkusuz anlamadığım şeyleri konuştum, Beni aşan, bilmediğim şaşılası işleri.
[You asked me], ‘(Who are you, who by speaking ignorantly, question what I plan to do?/You have no right to question what I plan to do by speaking ignorantly.)’ [RHQ] It is true that I spoke about things that I did not understand, things that are very wonderful/marvelous, and therefore I am not able to know them.
4 “‘Dinle de konuşayım’ dedin, ‘Ben sorayım, sen anlat.’
You said to me, ‘Listen while I talk to you. I want to ask you some questions, so prepare yourself to answer them.’
5 Kulaktan duymaydı bildiklerim senin hakkında, Şimdiyse gözlerimle gördüm seni.
I had heard about you previously, but now [it is as though] I have seen you with my own eyes.
6 Bu yüzden kendimi hor görüyor, Toz ve kül içinde tövbe ediyorum.”
Therefore I (am ashamed of/withdraw) what I said, and I sit in dust and ashes to show that I am sorry [for what I said].”
7 RAB Eyüp'le konuştuktan sonra, Temanlı Elifaz'a: “Sana ve iki dostuna karşı öfkem alevlendi” dedi, “Çünkü kulum Eyüp gibi hakkımda doğruyu konuşmadınız.
After Yahweh said these things to Job, he said to Eliphaz, “I am angry with you and your two friends, [Bildad and Zophar], because what my servant Job said about me was right/true, but what you have spoken about me was not right/true.
8 Şimdi yedi boğa, yedi koç alıp kulum Eyüp'ün yanına gidin, kendiniz için yakmalık sunu sunun. Kulum Eyüp sizin için dua etsin. Çünkü onun duasını kabul eder, aptallığınızın karşılığını vermem. Kulum Eyüp gibi hakkımda doğruyu konuşmadınız.”
So now you must take to Job seven young bulls and seven rams and [kill them and] burn them on the altar as a sacrifice for yourselves. Then Job will pray for you, and I will do what he requests me to do, [and I will forgive you for speaking wrongly about me]. I will not punish you, even though you deserve to be punished, because what you said about me was not right/true, but what Job said about me was right/true.”
9 Temanlı Elifaz, Şuahlı Bildat, Naamalı Sofar gidip RAB'bin söylediğini yaptılar. RAB de Eyüp'ün duasını kabul etti.
So Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar did what Yahweh commanded them to do, and Yahweh did what Job requested him to do [for the three of them].
10 Eyüp dostları için dua ettikten sonra, RAB onu eski gönencine kavuşturup ona önceki varlığının iki katını verdi.
After Job prayed for his three friends, Yahweh [healed him and] caused him to become rich again. Yahweh gave him twice as many things as he had before.
11 Bütün erkek ve kız kardeşleri, eski tanıdıklarının hepsi Eyüp'ün yanına gelip evinde onunla birlikte yemek yediler. Acısını paylaşıp RAB'bin başına getirmiş olduğu felaketlerden ötürü onu avuttular. Her biri ona bir parça gümüş, bir de altın halka verdi.
Then all his brothers and sisters, and all the people who had known him before, came to his house, and they ate a meal together. They consoled/comforted [DOU] him because of all the troubles that Yahweh had allowed him to experience.
12 RAB Eyüp'ün sonunu başından bereketli kıldı. On dört bin koyuna, altı bin deveye, bin çift öküze, bin eşeğe sahip oldu.
Then Yahweh blessed Job in the second half of his life more than he had blessed him in the first half of his life. He now acquired/owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 2,000 oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
13 Yedi oğlu, üç kızı oldu.
And he also had seven [more] sons and three [more] daughters.
14 İlk kızının adını Yemima, ikincisinin Kesia, üçüncüsünün Keren-Happuk koydu.
He named the first daughter Jemimah, he named the second daughter Keziah, and he named the third daughter Keren-Happuch.
15 Ülkenin hiçbir yerinde Eyüp'ün kızları kadar güzel kızlar yoktu. Babaları, kardeşlerinin yanısıra onlara da miras verdi.
In all of [Uz] land there were no young women who were as beautiful as the daughters of Job, and Job declared that they would inherit some of his possessions, just like their brothers would inherit some.
16 Bundan sonra Eyüp yüz kırk yıl daha yaşadı, oğullarını, dört göbek torunlarını gördü.
After that, Job lived 140 more years. Before he died, he (saw/enjoyed being with) his great-great-grandchildren.
17 Kocayıp yaşama doyarak öldü.
He was very old [DOU] when he died.
