Job 42
1 Then Job, responding to the Lord, said:
Potem je Job odgovoril Gospodu in rekel:
2 I know that you are able to do all things, and that no thoughts are hidden from you.
»Vem, da lahko narediš vsako stvar in da nobena misel ne more biti zadržana pred teboj.
3 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.
Kdo je tisti, ki skriva nasvet brez spoznanja? Torej sem rekel, da ne razumem. Stvari zame prečudovite, ki jih nisem poznal.
4 Listen, and I will speak. I will question you, and you may answer me.
Prisluhni, rotim te in bom govoril. Zahteval bom od tebe in oznani mi.
5 By paying attention with the ear, I have heard you, but now my eye sees you.
Slišal sem o tebi po poslušanju svojega ušesa. Toda sedaj te vidi moje oko.
6 Therefore, I find myself reprehensible, and I will do penance in embers and ashes.
Torej preziram samega sebe in se kesam v prahu in pepelu.«
7 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.
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.
8 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.
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.«
9 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.
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.
10 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.
Gospod je obrnil Jobovo ujetništvo, ko je molil za svoje prijatelje. Gospod je dal Jobu tudi dvakrat toliko, kot je imel poprej.
11 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.
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.
12 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.
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.
13 And he had seven sons and three daughters.
Imel je tudi sedem sinov in tri hčere.
14 And he called the name of one, Daylight, and the name of the second, Cinnamon, and the name of the third, Horn of Cosmetics.
Ime prve je imenoval Golobica, ime druge Dišavka in ime tretje Lepotica.
15 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.
Po vsej deželi ni bilo najti tako lepih žensk kakor Jobove hčere in njihov oče jim je dal dediščino med njihovimi brati.
16 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,
Potem je Job živel sto štirideset let in videl svoje sinove in svojih sinov sinove, celó štiri rodove.
17 and he died an old man and full of days.
Tako je Job umrl, star in izpolnjen z dnevi.
