Job

42

1Ipapo Jobho akapindura Jehovha, akati,
1Then Job answered Jehovah, and said,
2Ndinoziva kuti imwi munogona kuita zvose, Uye kuti hakuna chamunovavarira chingadziviswa.
2I know that thou canst do all things, And that no purpose of thine can be restrained.
3Ndianiko uyu anodzikatira zano raMwari asine zivo? Naizvozvo ndakataura zvandakanga ndisinganzwisisi, Zvinhu zvakandishamisa kwazvo, zvandakanga ndisingazivi.
3Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not, Things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4Chidonzwai henyu, nditaure ini, Ndichakubvunzai, imwi mundidudzire.
4Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak; I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
5Ndakanga ndanzwa zvenyu nokunzwa kwenzeve; Asi zvino ziso rangu rinokuonai,
5I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now mine eye seeth thee:
6Saka ndinozvisema, nokuzvidemba Muguruva namadota.
6Wherefore I abhor [myself], And repent in dust and ashes.
7Zvino Jehovha akati ataura mashoko iwayo kuna Jobho, Jehovha akati kuna Erifazi muTemani, Ndakatsamwira kwazvo iwe neshamwari dzako mbiri, nekuti imwi hamuna kutaura zvakarurama pamusoro pangu sezvakaita muranda wangu Jobho.
7And it was so, that, after Jehovah had spoken these words unto Job, Jehovah said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.
8Naizvozvo zvino chitorai nzombe nomwe namakondobwe namanomwe, muende kumuranda wangu Jobho, muzvipisire chipiriso chinopiswa; zvino muranda wangu Jobho achakunyengetererai; nekuti ndichamugamuchira iye, kuti ndirege kukuitirai zvakaenzana nohupenzi bwenyu; nekuti imwi hamuna kutaura pamusoro pangu zakarurama, sezvakaita muranda wangu Jobho.
8Now therefore, take unto you 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, that I deal not with you after your folly; for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath.
9Zvino Erifazi muTemani, naBhiridhadhi muShuhi, naZofari muNaamati, vakandoita sezvakarairwa naJehovha, Jehovha akagamuchira Jobho.
9So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as Jehovah commanded them: and Jehovah accepted Job.
10Jehovha akashandura kutapwa kwaJobho nguva yaakanyengeterera shamwari dzake; Jehovha akapa Jobho zvaakanga anazvo pakutanga kaviri.
10And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: and Jehovah gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11Ipapo vanin'ina vake vose, nehanzvadzi dzake dzose, navazikani vake vose vaimuziva kare vakauya kwaari, vakadya zvokudya mumba make; vakamudemba nokumunyaradza pamusoro pezvakaipa zvose zvakanga zvauyiswa naJehovha pamusoro pake; munhu mumwe nomumwe akamupawo chimari, nomumwe nomumwe chindori chendarama.
11Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that Jehovah had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one a ring of gold.
12Saizvozvo Jehovha akaropafadza kupedzisira kwaJobho kupfuura kutanga kwake; akanga ana makwai ane zviuru zvitanhatu, nenzombe dzingasungwa pamajoko dzine chiuru chimwe, namakadzi embongoro ane chiuru chimwe.
12So 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.
13Akazovawo navanakomana vanomwe navanasikana vatatu.
13He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14Akatumidza wokutanga zita rinonzi Jemima, nowechipiri zita rinonzi Kezia, nowechitatu zita rinonzi Kerenihapuki.
14And he called the name of the first, Jemimah: and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
15Panyika yose hapana kuwanikwa vakadzi vakanaka pazviso zvavo vakapfuurawo vakunda vaJobho baba vavo vakapawo nhaka pakati pehanzvadzi dzavo.
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.
16Shure kwaizvozvo Jobho akazogara makore ane zana namakumi mana, akaona vanakomana vake, navanakomana vavanakomana vake, kusvikira pamarudzi mana.
16And after this Job lived a hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, [even] four generations.
17Zvino Jobho akazofa, akwegura, ava namazuva mazhinji.
17So Job died, being old and full of days.
