¹فاجاب ايوب الرب فقال

¹And Job answered Jehovah and said,

²قد علمت انك تستطيع كل شيء ولا يعسر عليك أمر.

²I know that thou canst do everything, and that thou canst be hindered in no thought of thine.

³فمن ذا الذي يخفي القضاء بلا معرفة. ولكني قد نطقت بما لم افهم. بعجائب فوقي لم اعرفها.

³Who is he that obscureth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered what I did not understand; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

⁴اسمع الآن وانا اتكلم. اسألك فتعلمني.

⁴Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and inform me.

⁵بسمع الاذن قد سمعت عنك والآن رأتك عيني.

⁵I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear, but now mine eye seeth thee:

⁶لذلك ارفض واندم في التراب والرماد

⁶Wherefore I abhor [myself], and repent in dust and ashes.

⁷وكان بعدما تكلم الرب مع ايوب بهذا الكلام ان الرب قال لأليفاز التيماني قد احتمى غضبي عليك وعلى كلا صاحبيك لانكم لم تقولوا فيّ الصواب كعبدي ايوب.

⁷And it came to pass after Jehovah had spoken these words to Job, that Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, Mine anger is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken rightly of me, like my servant Job.

⁸والآن فخذوا لانفسكم سبعة ثيران وسبعة كباش واذهبوا الى عبدي ايوب واصعدوا محرقة لاجل انفسكم وعبدي ايوب يصلي من اجلكم لاني ارفع وجهه لئلا اصنع معكم حسب حماقتكم لانكم لم تقولوا فيّ الصواب كعبدي ايوب.

⁸And now, take for yourselves seven bullocks 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 him will I accept: lest I deal with you [after your] folly, for ye have not spoken of me rightly, like my servant Job.

⁹فذهب اليفاز التيماني وبلدد الشوحي وصوفر النعماتي وفعلوا كما قال الرب لهم ورفع الرب وجه ايوب.

⁹Then Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite, went and did according as Jehovah had said unto them; and Jehovah accepted Job.

¹⁰ورد الرب سبي ايوب لما صلى لاجل اصحابه وزاد الرب على كل ما كان لايوب ضعفا.

¹⁰And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he had prayed for his friends; and Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before.

¹¹فجاء اليه كل اخوته وكل اخواته وكل معارفه من قبل وأكلوا معه خبزا في بيته ورثوا له وعزّوه عن كل الشر الذي جلبه الرب عليه واعطاه كل منهم قسيطة واحدة وكل واحد قرطا من ذهب.

¹¹And all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house, and they condoled with him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him; and every one gave him a piece of money, and every one a golden ring.

¹²وبارك الرب آخرة ايوب اكثر من اولاه وكان له اربعة عشر الفا من الغنم وستة آلاف من الابل والف فدان من البقر والف اتان.

¹²And Jehovah blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.

¹³وكان له سبعة بنين وثلاث بنات.

¹³And he had seven sons and three daughters.

¹⁴وسمّى اسم الاولى يميمة واسم الثانية قصيعة واسم الثالثة قرن هفّوك.

¹⁴And he called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.

¹⁵ولم توجد نساء جميلات كبنات ايوب في كل الارض واعطاهنّ ابوهنّ ميراثا بين اخوتهنّ.

¹⁵And in all the land were no women found [so] fair as the daughters of Job; and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.

¹⁶وعاش ايوب بعد هذا مئة واربعين سنة ورأى بنيه وبني بنيه الى اربعة اجيال.

¹⁶And Job lived after this a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, four generations.

¹⁷ثم مات ايوب شيخا وشبعان الايام

¹⁷And Job died, old and full of days.
