< Job 42 >

1 Then Iob answered the Lord, and sayd,
Men sa Jòb reponn Seyè a:
2 I knowe that thou canst doe all things, and that there is no thought hidde from thee.
-Mwen konnen, Seyè, ou gen tout pouvwa. W'ap fè tou sa ou mete nan tèt ou pou ou fè.
3 Who is hee that hideth counsell without knowledge? therefore haue I spoken that I vnderstood not, euen things too wonderfull for me, and which I knew not.
Ou mande kisa mwen ye menm pou m'ap poze keksyon sou plan travay ou, ak yon bann diskou ki pa vle di anyen. Mwen te louvri bouch mwen pale sou sa m' pa konprann, sou bèl bagay ki twò fò pou mwen.
4 Heare, I beseech thee, and I will speake: I will demaunde of thee, and declare thou vnto me.
Ou te mande m' pou m' koute sa w'ap di m', pou m' pare pou m' reponn ou.
5 I haue heard of thee by the hearing of the eare, but now mine eye seeth thee.
Sa m' te konn sou ou a, se sa lòt moun te di m' ase. Koulye a, mwen wè ou ak je mwen.
6 Therefore I abhorre my selfe, and repent in dust and ashes.
Se konsa, mwen wete tou sa mwen te di. Mwen kouche sou sann ak nan pousyè, m'ap mande padon.
7 Now after that the Lord had spoken these wordes vnto Iob, ye Lord also said vnto Eliphaz ye Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for yee haue not spoken of me the thing that is right, like my seruant Iob.
Lè Seyè a fin pale konsa ak Jòb, li pale ak Elifaz, moun lavil Teman an. Li di l' konsa: -Mwen te fache sou ou ak sou de zanmi ou yo, paske sa nou di sou mwen an pa vre menm. Nou pa t' pale tankou Jòb, sèvitè m' lan.
8 Therefore take vnto you nowe seuen bullockes, and seuen rammes, and go to my seruant Iob, and offer vp for your selues a burnt offring, and my seruant Iob shall pray for you: for I wil accept him, least I should put you to shame, because ye haue not spoken of me the thing, which is right, like my seruant Iob.
Atòkile, men sa pou nou fè: Pran sèt towo bèf ak sèt belye mouton. Al jwenn Jòb ak yo. N'a ofri yo pou nou, n'a boule yo nèt. Jòb li menm va lapriyè pou nou. M'a reponn li. Konsa, m'a fè pa nou. Mwen p'ap pini nou deske nou pa t' pale byen sou mwen, jan Jòb, sèvitè m' lan, te fè l' la.
9 So Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the Lord had saide vnto them, and the Lord accepted Iob.
Elifaz, moun lavil Teman an, Bildad, moun lavil Chwa a, ak Sofa, moun lavil Naama a, al fè tou sa Seyè a te di yo fè a. Seyè a fè tou sa Jòb te mande l' nan lapriyè a.
10 Then the Lord turned the captiuitie of Iob, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lord gaue Iob twise so much as he had before.
Apre Jòb te fin lapriyè pou twa zanmi l' yo, Seyè a mete l' kanpe ankò. Tout zafè l' vin mache byen ankò. Lèfini, Seyè a ba li de fwa lavalè tou sa li te genyen anvan an.
11 Then came vnto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had bene of his acquaintance before, and did eate bread with him in his house, and had compassion of him, and comforted him for al the euil, that the Lord had brought vpon him, and euery man gaue him a piece of money, and euery one an earing of golde.
Tout frè ak sè l' yo ansanm ak tout ansyen zanmi l' yo vin wè li. Yo fè fèt avè l' lakay li. Yo fè l' konnen jan sa te fè kè yo mal pou li pou tout malè sa yo Seyè a te voye sou li. Yo fè l' pran kouraj. Yo chak yo fè l' kado yon pyès ajan ak yon bag lò.
12 So the Lord blessed the last dayes of Iob more then the first: for he had foureteene thousand sheepe, and sixe thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand shee asses.
Apre sa, Seyè a te beni Jòb plis pase jan li te fè l' anvan an. Jòb te vin genyen katòzmil (14.000) mouton, simil (6.000) chamo, demil (2.000) tèt bèf ak mil (1000) manman bourik.
13 He had also seue sonnes, and three daughters.
Li fè sèt pitit gason ak twa pitit fi.
14 And he called the name of one Iemimah, and the name of the seconde Keziah, and the name of the third Keren-happuch.
Li rele pi gran pitit fi a Jemina, dezyèm lan Kesya, twazyèm lan Kerèn apouk.
15 In all the lande were no women found so faire as the daughters of Iob, and their father gaue them inheritaunce among their brethren.
Nan tout peyi a pa t' gen pi bèl fanm pase twa pitit fi Jòb yo. Papa a te ba yo chak yon pòsyon nan byen l' yo ansanm ak frè yo.
16 And after this liued Iob an hundreth and fourtie yeres, and sawe his sonnes, and his sonnes sonnes, euen foure generations.
Apre sa, Jòb viv jouk li rive gen sankarantan sou tèt li. Li wè pitit pitit li yo ak pitit pitit pitit li yo, jouk rive sou kat jenerasyon.
17 So Iob dyed, being old, and full of dayes.
Lè li mouri, li te fin vye granmoun, li te viv kont li.
