Jó 42

VULGATA	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Respondens autem Job Domino, dixit :	1 This was the answer Job gave to Yahweh:
2 Scio quia omnia potes, et nulla te latet cogitatio.	2 I know that you are al -powerful: what you conceive, you can perform.
3 Quis est iste qui celat consilium absque scientia ? ideo insipienter locutus sum, et quæ ultra modum excederent scientiam meam.	3 I was the man who misrepresented your intentions with my ignorant words. You have told me aboutgreat works that I cannot understand, about marvels which are beyond me, of which I know nothing.
4 Audi, et ego loquar : interrogabo te, et responde mihi.	4 (Listen, please, and let me speak: I am going to ask the questions, and you are to inform me.)
5 Auditu auris audivi te : nunc autem oculus meus videt te.	5 Before, I knew you only by hearsay but now, having seen you with my own eyes,
6 Idcirco ipse me reprehendo, et ago pœnitentiam in favilla et cinere.	6 I retract what I have said, and repent in dust and ashes.
7 Postquam autem locutus est Dominus verba hæc ad Job, dixit ad Eliphaz Themanitem : Iratus est furor meus in te, et in duos amicos tuos, quoniam non estis locuti coram me rectum, sicut servus meus Job.	7 When Yahweh had finished saying this to Job, he said to Eliphaz of Teman, 'I burn with anger against you and your two friends, for not having spoken correctly about me as my servant Job has done.
8 Sumite ergo vobis septem tauros et septem arietes, et ite ad servum meum Job, et offerte holocaustum pro vobis : Job autem servus meus orabit pro vobis. Faciem ejus suscipiam, ut non vobis imputetur stultitia : neque enim locuti estis ad me recta, sicut servus meus Job.	8 So now find seven bul ocks and seven rams, and take them back with you to my servant Job andmake a burnt offering for yourselves, while Job, my servant, offers prayers for you. I shal show him favour andshall not inflict my displeasure on you for not having spoken about me correctly, as my servant Job has done.'
9 Abierunt ergo Eliphaz Themanites, et Baldad Suhites, et Sophar Naamathites, et fecerunt sicut locutus fuerat Dominus ad eos : et suscepit Dominus faciem Job.	9 Eliphaz of Teman, Bildad of Shuah and Zophar of Naamath went away to do as Yahweh had ordered,and Yahweh listened to Job with favour.
10 Dominus quoque conversus est ad pœnitentiam Job, cum oraret ille pro amicis suis : et addidit Dominus omnia quæcumque fuerant Job, duplicia.	10 And Yahweh restored Job's condition, while Job was interceding for his friends. More than that,Yahweh gave him double what he had before.
11 Venerunt autem ad eum omnes fratres sui, et universæ sorores suæ, et cuncti qui noverant eum prius, et comederunt cum eo panem in domo ejus : et moverunt super eum caput, et consolati sunt eum super omni malo quod intulerat Dominus super eum : et dederunt ei unusquisque ovem unam, et inaurem auream unam.	11 And al his brothers and all his sisters and al his friends of former times came to see him. Over dinnerin his house, they showed their sympathy and comforted him for al the evils Yahweh had inflicted on him. Eachof them gave him a silver coin, and each a gold ring.
12 Dominus autem benedixit novissimis Job magis quam principio ejus : et facta sunt ei quatuordecim millia ovium, et sex millia camelorum, et mille juga boum, et mille asinæ.	12 Yahweh blessed Job's latter condition even more than his former one. He came to own fourteenthousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen and a thousand she-donkeys.
13 Et fuerunt ei septem filii, et tres filiæ.	13 He had seven sons and three daughters;
14 Et vocavit nomen unius Diem, et nomen secundæ Cassiam, et nomen tertiæ Cornustibii.	14 his first daughter he cal ed 'Turtledove', the second 'Cassia' and the third 'Mascara'.
15 Non sunt autem inventæ mulieres speciosæ sicut filiæ Job in universa terra : deditque eis pater suus hæreditatem inter fratres earum.	15 Throughout the land there were no women as beautiful as the daughters of Job. And their father gavethem inheritance rights like their brothers.
16 Vixit autem Job post hæc centum quadraginta annis, et vidit filios suos, et filios filiorum suorum usque ad quartam generationem : et mortuus est senex, et plenus dierum.	16 After this, Job lived for another one hundred and forty years, and saw his children and his children'schildren to the fourth generation.
	17 Then, old and ful of days, Job died.
