< Job 42 >

1 Then Job answered the LORD,
Na Hiob buaa Awurade se,
2 "I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.
“Minim sɛ wutumi yɛ nneɛma nyinaa; obiara rentumi nsɛe wo nhyehyɛe.
3 You asked, 'Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?' therefore I have uttered that which I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.
Wubisa se, ‘Hena ni a onni nimdeɛ nso osiw mʼafotu ho kwan?’ Ampa ara mekaa nneɛma a mente ase no ho nsɛm, nneɛma a ɛyɛ nwonwa ma me.
4 You said, 'Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.'
“Wokae se, ‘Tie na menkasa; mebisa wo nsɛm na ɛsɛ sɛ woma me mmuae.’
5 I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.
Mate wo nka pɛn, na mprempren de, mʼani ahu wo.
6 Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes."
Ɛno nti mibu me ho animtiaa na mete mfutuma ne nsõ mu de kyerɛ mʼahonu.”
7 It was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends; for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.
Na Awurade kaa nsɛm yi kyerɛɛ Hiob wiei no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Temanni Elifas se, “Me bo afuw wo ne wo nnamfonom baanu no, efisɛ moanka me ho asɛm a ɛyɛ nokware sɛnea me somfo Hiob kae no.
8 Now therefore, take to yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept him, that I not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has."
Afei, momfa anantwi ason ne adwennini ason, na monkɔ me somfo Hiob nkyɛn, na monkɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre mma mo ho. Me somfo Hiob bɛbɔ mpae ama mo, na metie ne mpaebɔ no na merenyɛ mo sɛnea ɛfata mo nkwaseasɛm no, nsɛm a moka faa me ho no nyɛ nokware sɛnea me somfo Hiob yɛe no.”
9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did what the LORD commanded them, and the LORD accepted Job.
Enti Temanni Elifas ne Suhini Bildad ne Naamani Sofar yɛɛ sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no; na Awurade tiee Hiob mpaebɔ.
10 The LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends. The LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
Hiob bɔɔ mpae maa ne nnamfonom akyi no, Awurade san yɛɛ no ɔdefo bio na ɔde nʼahode a na ɔwɔ kan no mmɔho abien maa no.
11 Then came there to him all his brothers, and all his sisters, and all those who had been of his acquaintance before, and ate bread with him in his house. They comforted him, and consoled him concerning all the evil that the LORD had permitted on him. And each of them gave him a kesitah and a gold ring.
Afei, ne nuabarimanom, ne nuabeanom nyinaa ne obiara a na onim no dedaw no baa ne fi ne no bedidii. Wɔkyekyee ne werɛ wɔ amanehunu a Awurade ma ɔkɔɔ mu no ho, na wɔn mu biara brɛɛ no dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ kaa.
12 So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.
Awurade hyiraa Hiob nkwa awiei sen ne mfiase. Onyaa nguan mpem dunan, yoma mpem asia, anantwinini mpamho apem ne mfurum abere apem.
13 He had also seven sons and three daughters.
Bio onyaa mmabarima baason ne mmabea baasa.
14 He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.
Ɔtoo ne babea piesie no din Yemima, na nea odi so no Kesia na nea ɔto so abiɛsa no de Keren-Hapuk.
15 In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
Asase no so nyinaa, na mmaa biara nni hɔ a wɔn ho yɛ fɛ sɛ Hiob mmabea no, na wɔn agya de wɔn kaa wɔn nuabarimanom no ho maa wɔn agyapade.
16 After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, to four generations.
Eyi akyi no, Hiob dii mfirihyia ɔha aduanan; ohuu ne mma ne ne nenanom awo ntoatoaso anan.
17 So Job died, being old and full of days.
Afei owui a na wabɔ akwakoraa pa ara.
