Job 2
1 Again it happened on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, that Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.
Muling dumating ang araw para humarap kay Yahweh ang mga anak ng Diyos, pumunta rin si Satanas para iharap ang kaniyang sarili kay Yahweh.
2 The LORD said to Satan, "Where have you come from?" Satan answered the LORD, and said, "From going back and forth on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."
Tinanong ni Yahweh si Satanas, “Saan ka naman nanggaling ngayon?” Sumagot si Satanas, “Galing ako sa paglalakad sa lupa nang pabalik-balik.”
3 The LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil. And he still holds firmly to his integrity, although you incited me against him, to ruin him without cause."
Nagtanong muli si Yahweh kay Satanas, “Ano naman ang masasabi mo sa lingkod kong si Job? Sapagkat wala siyang katulad sa mundong ito, walang maipipintas at tapat na tao, may takot sa Diyos at tumatalikod sa lahat ng kasamaan. Nananatili pa rin siya sa kaniyang integridad kahit na pinilit mo akong gumawa ng laban sa kaniya, para sirain siya nang walang dahilan.”
4 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, "Skin for skin. Indeed, all that a man has he will give for his life.
Sumagot si Satanas kay Yahweh at sinabing, “Balat sa balat naman; kayang ibigay ng tao ang lahat-lahat ng pag-aari niya para lamang siya mabuhay.
5 But put forth your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse you to your face."
Pero subukan mong iunat ang iyong kamay at galawin ang kaniyang mga buto at katawan, tingnan mo kung hindi ka niya isumpa nang harapan.”
6 The LORD said to Satan, "Look, he is in your power. Only preserve his life."
Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Satanas, “Sige, siya ay nasa iyong mga kamay, pero huwag mo lang siyang babawian ng buhay.”
7 So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD, and struck Job with painful boils from the sole of his foot to the top of his head.
Kaya umalis si Satanas sa presensiya ni Yahweh at nilagyan ng mga malubhang pigsa si Job mula sa kaniyang talampakan hanggang sa bumbunan.
8 And he took for himself a potsherd to scrape himself with while he sat among the ashes.
Pumulot si Job ng isang piraso ng basag na palayok para kayurin ang sarili gamit nito, saka siya umupo sa ibabaw ng mga abo.
9 Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold firmly to your integrity? Curse God, and die."
Saka sinabi sa kaniya ng kaniyang asawa, “Panghahawakan mo pa rin ba ang iyong integridad? Isumpa mo na ang Diyos at mamatay ka na.”
10 But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we indeed accept good at the hand of God, and shall we not accept adversity?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
Pero sinabi niya sa kaniyang asawa, “Kung makapagsalita ka parang wala kang isip, hindi mo ba naisip na hindi lang kabutihan ang maaari nating maranasan sa kamay ng Diyos at maaari rin tayong makaranas ng masama?” Sa lahat ng pangyayaring ito, hindi nagkasala si Job sa kaniyang mga labi.
11 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this adversity that had come on him, they each came from his own place: Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, and they made an appointment together to come to sympathize with him and to comfort him.
Ngayon naman, nabalitaan ng tatlong kaibigan ni Job ang lahat ng masamang nangyari sa kaniya, nilisan nila ang kani-kanilang lugar para puntahan si Job: Si Eliphaz na Temaneo, Bildad na Shuhita, at Zophar na Naamita. Naglaan sila ng panahon para makidalamhati sa kaniya at aliwin siya.
12 When they lifted up their eyes from a distance, and did not recognize him, they raised their voices, and wept; and they each tore his robe, and threw dust in the air over their heads.
Nang tumanaw sila sa kalayuan, hindi nila agad nakilala si Job, napahiyaw sila at humagulgol sa iyak; pinunit ng bawat isa ang kani-kaniyang damit, nagsaboy ng abo sa hangin at sa kanilang mga ulo.
13 So they sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and none spoke a word to him, for they saw that his pain was very great.
Saka sila umupo sa tabi ni Job sa loob ng pitong araw at pitong gabi, wala ni isa sa kanila ang nangahas magsalita sa kaniya, dahil nakita nila ang sobrang hirap ni Job.
