Job 42

DOUAI-RHEIMSNOVA VULGATA
1 Then Job answered the Lord, and said :1 Respondens autem Iob Domino dixit:
2 I know that thou canst do all things, and no thought is hid from thee.2 “ Scio quia omnia potes,
et nulla te latet cogitatio.
3 Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have spoken unwisely, and things that above measure exceeded my knowledge.3 Quis est iste, qui celat consilium
absque scientia?
Ideo insipienter locutus sum
et mirabilia, quae excederent scientiam meam.
4 Hear, and I will speak : I will ask thee, and do thou tell me.4 Audi, et ego loquar;
interrogabo te, et responde mihi.
5 With the hearing of the ear, I have heard thee, but now my eye seeth thee.5 Auditu auris audivi te;
nunc autem oculus meus videt te.
6 Therefore I reprehend myself, and do penance in dust and ashes.6 Idcirco ipse me reprehendo
et ago paenitentiam in favilla et cinere ”.
7 And after the Lord had spoken these words to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Themanite : My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends, because you have not spoken the thing that is right before my, as my servant Job hath.7 Postquam autem locutus est Dominus verba haec ad Iob, dixit ad EliphazThemanitem: “ Iratus est furor meus in te et in duos amicos tuos, quoniam nonestis locuti coram me rectum sicut servus meus Iob.
8 Take unto you therefore seven oxen, and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a holocaust : and my servant Job shall pray for you : his face I will accept, that folly be not imputed to you : for you have not spoken right things before me, as my servant Job hath.8 Sumite ergo vobis septemtauros et septem arietes et ite ad servum meum Iob et offerte holocaustum provobis; Iob autem servus meus orabit pro vobis. Faciem eius suscipiam, ut nonvobis imputetur stultitia; neque enim locuti estis ad me recta sicut servus meusIob ”.
9 So Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Sophar the Naamathite went, and did as the Lord had spoken to them, and the Lord accepted the face of Job.9 Abierunt ergo Eliphaz Themanites et Baldad Suhites et SopharNaamathites et fecerunt, sicut locutus fuerat Dominus ad eos, et suscepitDominus faciem Iob.
10 The Lord also was turned at the penance of Job, when he prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.10 Dominus vertit sortem Iob, cum oraret ille pro amicis suis; et addiditDominus omnia, quaecumque fuerant Iob, duplicia.
11 And all his brethren came to him, and all his sisters, and all that knew him before, and they ate bread with him in his house : and bemoaned him, and comforted him upon all the evil that God had brought upon him. And every man gave him one ewe, and one earring of fold.11 Venerunt autem ad eum omnesfratres sui et universae sorores suae et cuncti, qui noverant eum prius; etcomederunt cum eo panem in domo eius et moverunt super eum caput et consolatisunt eum super omni malo, quod intulerat Dominus super eum; et dederunt eiunusquisque argenteum unum et inaurem auream unam.
12 And the Lord 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.12 Dominus autem benedixit novissimis Iob magis quam principio eius; et factasunt ei quattuordecim milia ovium et sex milia camelorum et mille iuga boum etmille asinae.
13 And he had seven sons, and three daughters.13 Et fuerunt ei septem filii et tres filiae;
14 And he called the names of one Dies, and the name of the second Cassia, and the name of the third Cornustibil.14 et vocavit nomenunius Columbam et nomen secundae Cassiam et nomen tertiae Cornustibii.
15 And there were not found in all the earth women so beautiful as the daughters of Job : and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.15 Nonsunt autem inventae mulieres speciosae sicut filiae Iob in universa terra;deditque eis pater suus hereditatem inter fratres earum.
16 And Job lived after these things, a hundred and forty years, and he saw his children, and his children's children, unto the fourth generation, and he died an old man, and full of days.16 Vixit autem Iob posthaec centum quadraginta annis et vidit filios suos et filios filiorum suorumusque ad quartam generationem; et mortuus est senex et plenus dierum.
