Job 42
Lexham English Bible
Job’s Repentance and Restoration
42 Then[a] Job answered Yahweh and said,
2 “I know that you can do all things,
and any scheme from you will not be thwarted.
3 ‘Who is this darkening counsel without knowledge?’
Therefore I uttered, but[b] I did not understand;
things too wonderful for me,[c] but I did not know.
4 ‘Hear and I will speak;
I will question you, then[d] inform me.’
5 By the ear’s hearing I heard of you,
but[e] now my eye has seen you.
6 Therefore I despise myself
and repent in dust and ashes.”
7 And then[f] after Yahweh spoke these words to Job, Yahweh said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath has been kindled[g] against you[h] and against the two of your friends, for you[i] have not spoken to me what is right as my servant Job has. 8 So then,[j] take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to my servant Job and offer a burnt offering for yourselves. And my servant Job will pray for you,[k] for I will certainly accept his prayer,[l] so that it will not be done with you[m] according to your folly, for you[n] have not spoken to me what is right as my servant Job has.”
9 So[o] Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did just as Yahweh had told them, and Yahweh accepted Job’s prayer.[p]
10 Then[q] Yahweh returned Job’s fortune when he prayed to him on behalf of his friends. Thus[r] Yahweh increased all that Job had twice as much as before.[s] 11 So[t] all his brothers and all his sisters and all those who had known him before[u] came to him, and they ate bread[v] with him in his house and showed sympathy to him and comforted him for all the disaster[w] that Yahweh had brought upon him. Then[x] each one gave to him one piece of money, and each one gave to him one ornamental ring of gold.
12 So[y] Yahweh blessed Job’s latter days more than his beginning. Thus he had[z] fourteen thousand sheep and goats and six thousand camels and a thousand pair of oxen and a thousand female donkeys. 13 And he had[aa] seven sons and three daughters. 14 And he called the name of the first Jemimah and the name of the second Keziah and the name of the third Qeren-Happuk. 15 And beautiful women were not found in all the land like Job’s daughters, and their father gave to them an inheritance in the midst of their brothers.
16 And Job lived after this one hundred and forty years, and he saw his sons and his grandsons[ab] for four generations. 17 Then[ac] Job died old and full of days.

Ayuub 42
Somali Bible
Ayuub
42 Markaasaa Ayuub Rabbiga u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
2 Waan ogahay inaad wax walba kartid,
Iyo inaan qasdigaaga innaba la joojin karin.
3 Bal waa ayo kan aan aqoonta lahayn oo talada qariyaa?
Haddaba anigu waxaan ku hadlay wax aanan garanayn,
Oo ah waxyaalo aad iiga yaabiyey oo aanan innaba aqoon.
4 Waan ku baryayaaye i maqal aan kula hadlee,
Oo wax baan ku weyddiinayaaye ii sheeg.
5 Markii hore ayaan wax kugu saabsan dhegaha ku maqlay,
Laakiinse haatan indhahaan kugu arkayaa,
6 Sidaas daraaddeed waan isnacayaa,
Waanan toobadkeenayaa anigoo boodh iyo dambas ku fadhiya.
Dhammaadkii Ayuub
7 Oo markii Rabbigu erayadaas Ayuub kula hadlay dabadeed wuxuu Eliifas oo reer Teemaan ahaa ku yidhi, Cadhadaydii baa ku kululaatay adiga iyo labadaadii saaxiibba, waayo, idinku wixii xaqa ahaa igama aydaan sheegin, sidii addoonkayga Ayuub uu yeelay oo kale. 8 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waxaad soo wadataan toddoba dibi iyo toddoba wan, oo waxaad u tagtaan addoonkayga Ayuub, oo waxaad nafsaddiinna daraaddeed u bixisaan qurbaan la gubo; oo addoonkayga Ayuub wuu idiin ducaynayaa, waayo, isagaan ka aqbalayaa, si aanan idinkula macaamiloon sidii nacasnimadiinnii ahayd, waayo, idinku wixii xaqa ahaa igama aydaan sheegin sidii addoonkayga Ayuub uu yeelay oo kale. 9 Sidaas daraaddeed Eliifas oo ahaa reer Teemaan, iyo Bildad oo ahaa reer Shuuxii, iyo Soofar oo ahaa reer Nacamaatii way tageen oo waxay u sameeyeen sidii Rabbigu ku amray, oo Rabbiguna Ayuub wuu aqbalay. 10 Rabbiga ayaa Ayuub axwaalkiisii beddelay markuu saaxiibbadiis u duceeyey; oo Rabbiguna Ayuub wuxuu siiyey wixii uu markii hore lahaa laba jibbaarkood. 11 Markaasaa Ayuub waxaa u yimid walaalihiis oo dhan, wiilal iyo gabdhoba, iyo kuwii isaga hore u yiqiin oo dhan, oo gurigiisii ayay kibis kula cuneen, wayna u tacsiyeeyeen, oo waxay uga qalbi qaboojiyeen masiibadii Rabbigu isaga ku soo dejiyey oo dhan. Oo nin kastaaba wuxuu isagii siiyey in lacag ah iyo hilqad dahab ah. 12 Oo sidaasuu Rabbigu Ayuub ugudambaystiisii u barakeeyey in ka sii badan bilowgiisii hore; oo wuxuu lahaa afar iyo toban kun oo ido ah, iyo lix kun oo geel ah, iyo laba kun oo dibi, iyo kun dameerood. 13 Oo weliba wuxuu lahaa toddoba wiil iyo saddex gabdhood. 14 Oo middii kowaad magaceedii wuxuu u bixiyey Yemiimaah, tii labaad magaceediina wuxuu u bixiyey Qasicaah, tii saddexaad magaceediina wuxuu u bixiyey Qeren Hafuug. 15 Oo waddankaas oo dhanna laguma arag dumar u qurxoon sida gabdhaha Ayuub, oo aabbahoodna dhaxal buu walaalahood la siiyey. 16 Oo wakhtigaas dabadeed Ayuub wuxuu noolaa boqol iyo afartan sannadood, oo wuxuu arkay wiilashiisii, iyo wiilashiisa wiilashoodiiba, tan iyo intii afar fac ah. 17 Markaasaa Ayuub dhintay isagoo duq ah oo cimri weyn.
