¹Siis Iiob vastas Issandale ja ütles:

¹Then Job answered Yahweh,

²'Mina tean, et sina suudad kõike ja et sinul ei ole ükski asi võimatu.

²“I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.

³Kes on see, kes mõistmatult püüab varjata sinu nõu? Seepärast ma olen jutustanud, millest ma pole aru saanud, asjadest, mis mulle on imelikud ja mida ma ei mõista.

³You 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 didn’t know.

⁴Kuule siis ometi ja ma räägin, mina küsin sinult ja sina seleta mulle!

⁴You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’

⁵Ma olin ainult kõrvaga kuulnud kuuldusi sinust, aga nüüd on mu silm sind näinud.

⁵I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.

⁶Seepärast ma võtan kõik tagasi ning kahetsen põrmus ja tuhas.'

⁶Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”

⁷Ja pärast seda kui Issand oli rääkinud need sõnad Iiobile, ütles Issand teemanlasele Eliifasele: 'Mu viha on süttinud põlema sinu vastu ja su mõlema sõbra vastu, sest teie ei ole rääkinud minu kohta tõtt nagu mu sulane Iiob!

⁷It was so, that after Yahweh had spoken these words to Job, Yahweh 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.

⁸Võtke siis nüüd seitse härjavärssi ja seitse jäära ning minge mu sulase Iiobi juurde ja ohverdage eneste eest põletusohver, ja mu sulane Iiob palvetagu teie eest; sest ma kuulen ainult tema palvet, et mitte talitada teiega häbistavalt, kuigi te ei ole rääkinud minu kohta tõtt nagu mu sulane Iiob!'

⁸Now 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.”

⁹Siis läksid teemanlane Eliifas, suhiit Bildad ja naamalane Soofar ja tegid, nagu Issand neile oli öelnud; ja Issand kuulis Iiobi palvet.

⁹So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did what Yahweh commanded them, and Yahweh accepted Job.

¹⁰Ja Issand pööras Iiobi saatuse, kui too palvetas oma sõprade eest; ja Issand andis Iiobile kahekordselt kõike, mis tal oli olnud.

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

¹¹Ja tema juurde tulid kõik ta vennad ja kõik ta õed ja kõik, kes teda enne olid tundnud, ja võtsid leiba koos temaga ta kojas; ja nad avaldasid temale kaastunnet ja trööstisid teda selle õnnetuse pärast, mis Issand temale oli lasknud tulla; ja igaüks andis temale ühe kaaluühiku raha ja ühe kuldrõnga.

¹¹Then 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 Yahweh had brought on him. Everyone also gave him a piece of money, literally, kesitah, a unit of money, probably silver and everyone a ring of gold.

¹²Ja Issand õnnistas Iiobi viimast põlve enam kui ta esimest; ja tal oli neliteist tuhat lammast ja kitse, kuus tuhat kaamelit, tuhat paari härgi ja tuhat emaeeslit.

¹²So Yahweh 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.

¹³Ja tal oli seitse poega ja kolm tütart.

¹³He had also seven sons and three daughters.

¹⁴Ta pani ühele tütrele nimeks Jemiima, teisele Ketsia ja kolmandale Keren-Hapuuk.

¹⁴He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.

¹⁵Ja kogu maal ei leidunud nii ilusaid naisi kui Iiobi tütred; ja nende isa andis neile pärisosa nende vendade keskel.

¹⁵In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.

¹⁶Pärast seda elas Iiob veel sada nelikümmend aastat ja nägi oma lapsi ja oma laste lapsi neli põlve.

¹⁶After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, to four generations.

¹⁷Ja Iiob suri, olles vana ja elatanud.

¹⁷So Job died, being old and full of days.
