42:1

ወተሠጥዎ፡ ኢዮብ፡ ለእግዚአብሔር፡ ወይቤ።

Then Job answered Yahweh:

約伯回答耶和華說：

42:2

አእምሮ፡ አአምር፡ ከመ፡ ኵሎ፡ ትክል፡ ወኵሉ፡ ይትከሀለከ፡ ወአልቦ፡ ዘይሰአነከ።

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

我知道，你萬事都能做；你的旨意不能攔阻。

42:3

መኑ፡ ውእቱ፡ ዘየህብአከ፡ ምክረ፡ ወዘይምህከ፡ ነገር፡ ውስተ፡ ልቡ፡ ወእምኔጀኑ፡ ዘይሤውር፡ ይመስሎ፡ ወመኑ፡ ይነግረኒ፡ ዘኢየአምር፡ ዓቢያተ፡ መንክራት፡ ዘኢርኢኩ።

You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’ therefore I have uttered that which I didn’t understand, things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know.

誰用無知的言語使你的旨意隱藏呢？我所說的是我不明白的；這些事太奇妙，是我不知道的。

42:4

ስምዐኒ፡ እንግርከ፡ እግዚእየ፡ አነ፡ እሴእለከ፡ ወአንተ፡ መሀረኒ።

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

求你聽我，我要說話；我問你，求你指示我。

42:5

ሰሚዐሰ፡ ሰማዕኩ፡ ቅድመ፡ በዕዝንየ፡ ወይእዜሰ፡ ርኢኩከ፡ በአዕይንትየ።

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

我從前風聞有你，現在親眼看見你。

42:6

ወባሕቱ፡ በዘተዛለፍኩ፡ ተመሰውኩ፡ አአምር፡ አነ፡ ከመ፡ መሬት፡ ወሐመድ፡ ርእስየ።

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

因此我厭惡自己，在塵土和爐灰中懊悔。

42:7

ወእምድኅረ፡ ተናገሮ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ ለኢዮብ፡ ዘንተ፡ ነገረ፡ ይቤሎ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ ለኤልፋዝ፡ ቴሜናዊ፡ አበስክሙ፡ አንተ፡ ወክልኤቱ፡ አዕርክቲከ፡ እስመ፡ ኢተናገርክሙ፡ ጽድቀ፡ በቅድሜየ፡ ከመ፡ ቊልዔየ፡ ኢዮብ፡ ወኢአሐተኒ።

It 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.

耶和華對約伯說話以後，就對提幔人以利法說：「我的怒氣向你和你兩個朋友發作，因為你們議論我不如我的僕人約伯說的是。

42:8

ወይእዜኒ፡ ንሥኡ፡ ሰብዓተ፡ አልሕምተ፡ ወሰብዓተ፡ አባግዐ፡ ወሑሩ፡ ኀበ፡ ቊልዔየ፡ ኢዮብ፡ ወይግበር፡ መሥዋዕተ፡ ወኢዮብ፡ ቊልዔየ፡ ይጸሊ፡ በእንቲአክሙ፡ እምገጸዚአሁ፡ እነሥአ፡ ወሶበ፡ አኮ፡ በእንቲአሁ፡ እምቀተልኩክሙ፡ እስመ፡ ኢነበብክሙ፡ ርትዐ፡ ላዕለ፡ ቊልዔየ፡ ኢዮብ።

Now 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.”

現在你們要取七隻公牛，七隻公羊，到我僕人約伯那裏去，為自己獻上燔祭，我的僕人約伯就為你們祈禱。我因悅納他，就不按你們的愚妄辦你們。你們議論我，不如我的僕人約伯說的是。」

42:9

ወሖሩ፡ ኤልፋዝ፡ ቴሜናዊ፡ ወበልዳዶስ፡ አውኬናዊ፡ ወሳፍር፡ አሜናዊ፡ ወገብሩ፡ በከመ፡ አዘዞሙ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ ወሠረየ፡ ሎሙ፡ እግዚአብሔር፡ ኃጢአቶሙ፡ በእንተ፡ ኢዮብ።

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

於是提幔人以利法、書亞人比勒達、拿瑪人瑣法照着耶和華所吩咐的去行；耶和華就悅納約伯。
