Jó 42

1 Então respondeu Job ao Senhor, e disse:

Then Job answered and said to the Lord,

2 Bem sei eu que tudo podes, e nenhum dos teus pensamentos pode ser impedido.

I know that thou canst do all things, and nothing is impossible with thee.

3 Quem é aquelle, dizes tu, que sem conhecimento encobre o conselho? por isso relatei o que não entendia; coisas que para mim eram maravilhosissimas, e eu as não entendia.

For who is he that hides counsel from thee? or who keeps back his words, and thinks to hide them from thee? and who will tell me what I knew not, great and wonderful things which I understood not?

4 Escuta-me pois, e eu fallarei: eu te perguntarei, e tu me ensinas.

But hear me, O Lord, that I also may speak: and I will ask thee, and do thou teach me.

5 Com o ouvido das orelhas te ouvi, mas agora te vê o meu olho.

I have heard the report of thee by the ear before; but now mine eye has seen thee.

6 Por isso me abomino e me arrependo no pó e na cinza.

Wherefore I have counted myself vile, and have fainted: and I esteem myself dust and ashes.

7 Succedeu pois que, acabando o Senhor de fallar a Job aquellas palavras, o Senhor disse a Eliphaz, o temanita: A minha ira se accendeu contra ti, e contra os teus dois amigos; porque não fallaste de mim o que era recto, como o meu servo Job.

And it came to pass after the Lord had spoken all these words to Job, [that] the Lord said to Eliphaz the Thaemanite, Thou hast sinned, and thy two friends: for ye have not said anything true before me, as my servant Job [has].

8 Tomae pois sete bezerros e sete carneiros, e ide ao meu servo Job, e offerecei holocaustos por vós, e o meu servo Job orará por vós: porque devéras a elle acceitarei, para que vos não trate conforme a vossa loucura; porque vós não fallastes de mim o que era recto como o meu servo Job.

Now then take seven bullocks, and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and he shall offer a burnt-offering for you. And my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will only accept him: for but his sake, I would have destroyed you, for ye have not spoken the truth against my servant Job.

9 Então foram Eliphaz, o temanita, e Bildad, o suhita, e Sofar, o naamathita, e fizeram como o Senhor lhes dissera: e o Senhor acceitou a face de Job.

So Eliphaz the Thaemanite, and Baldad the Sauchite, and Sophar the Minaean, went and did as the Lord commanded them: and he pardoned their sin for the sake of Job.

10 E o Senhor virou o captiveiro de Job, quando orava pelos seus amigos: e o Senhor accrescentou a Job outro tanto em dobro, a tudo quanto d'antes possuia.

And the Lord prospered Job: and when he prayed also for his friends, he forgave them [their] sin: and the Lord gave Job twice as much, even the double of what he had before.

11 Então vieram a elle todos os seus irmãos, e todas as suas irmãs, e todos quantos d'antes o conheceram, e comeram com elle pão em sua casa, e se condoeram d'elle, e o consolaram ácerca de todo o mal que o Senhor lhe havia enviado: e cada um d'elles lhe deu uma peça de dinheiro, e cada um um pendente de oiro.

And all his brethren and his sisters heard all that had happened to him, and they came to him, and [so did] all that had known him from the first: and they ate and drank with him, and comforted him, and wondered at all that the Lord had brought upon him: and each one gave him a lamb, and four drachms' weight of gold, even of unstamped [gold].

12 E assim abençoou o Senhor ao ultimo estado de Job, mais do que o primeiro: porque teve quatorze mil ovelhas, e seis mil camelos, e mil juntas de bois, e mil jumentas.

And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job, [more] than the beginning: and his cattle were fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, a thousand she-asses of the pastures.

13 Tambem teve sete filhos e tres filhas.

And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters.

14 E chamou o nome da primeira Jemima, e o nome da outra Cassia, e o nome da terceira Keren-happuch.

And he called the first Day, and the second Casia, and the third Amalthaea's horn.

15 E em toda a terra não se acharam mulheres tão formosas como as filhas de Job; e seu pae lhes deu herança entre seus irmãos.

And there were not found in comparison with the daughters of Job, fairer [women] than they in all the world: and their father gave them an inheritance among their brethren.

16 E depois d'isto viveu Job cento e quarenta annos: e viu a seus filhos, e aos filhos de seus filhos, até á quarta geração.

And Job lived after [his] affliction a hundred and seventy years: and all the years he lived were two hundred and forty: and Job saw his sons and his sons' sons, the fourth generation.

17 Então morreu Job, velho e farto de dias.

And Job died, an old man and full of days.
