Job 42
Zürcher Bibel 1931
1Da antwortete Hiob dem Herrn und sprach:
2Ich habe erkannt, dass du alles vermagst; / nichts, was du sinnst, ist dir verwehrt. /
3Wer ist's, der da verhüllt ohne Einsicht den Ratschluss? / Darum habe ich geredet in Unverstand, / Dinge, die zu wunderbar für mich, die ich nicht begriff. / (a) Hio 38:2
4Höre doch, und ich will reden; / ich will dich fragen, und du lehre mich! /
5Vom Hörensagen hatte ich von dir gehört; / nun aber hat dich mein Auge gesehen. /
6Darum widerrufe ich und bereue / in Staub und in Asche.
7ALS nun der Herr diese Worte zu Hiob geredet hatte, da sprach er zu Eliphas von Theman: Mein Zorn ist entbrannt wider dich und deine zwei Freunde; denn ihr habt nicht recht von mir geredet wie mein Knecht Hiob.
8Und nun nehmet sieben Stiere und sieben Widder und geht zu meinem Knechte Hiob, und bringt ein Brandopfer für euch dar, und mein Knecht Hiob mag für euch bitten; nur seine Fürbitte werde ich annehmen, dass ich euch nicht etwas Schlimmes antue, weil ihr nicht recht von mir geredet habt wie mein Knecht Hiob.
9Da gingen Eliphas von Theman, Bildad von Suah und Zophar von Naama hin und taten nach dem Befehl des Herrn. Und der Herr nahm die Fürbitte Hiobs an.
10Auch wandte der Herr Hiobs Geschick, als er für seine Freunde bat, und gab Hiob doppelt soviel, als er gehabt hatte. (a) Hio 1:3
11Da kamen zu ihm alle seine Brüder und Schwestern und alle seine alten Bekannten, und sie assen mit ihm in seinem Hause und bezeigten ihm ihr Beileid und trösteten ihn wegen all des Unglücks, das der Herr über ihn hatte kommen lassen; und sie gaben ihm ein jeder einen Taler und einen goldenen Ring.
12Und der Herr segnete Hiob hernach mehr als zuvor, und er bekam 14 000 Schafe, sechstausend Kamele, tausend Joch Rinder und tausend Eselinnen.
13Er bekam auch sieben Söhne und drei Töchter.
14Die erste hiess er Jemima, die zweite Kezia und die dritte Kerenhappuch; (1) d.h. Täubchen. (2) d.h. Wohlgeruch. (3) d.h. Schminkbüchschen.
15und man fand im ganzen Lande keine Frauen so schön wie Hiobs Töchter, und ihr Vater gab ihnen ein Erbteil unter ihren Brüdern.
16Darnach lebte Hiob noch 140 Jahre, und er sah seine Kinder und Kindeskinder, vier Geschlechter.
17Und Hiob starb alt und lebenssatt.

1Y RESPONDIÓ Job á Jehová, y dijo:
2Yo conozco que todo lo puedes, y que no hay pensamiento que se esconda de ti.
3¿Quién es el que oscurece el consejo sin ciencia? por tanto yo denunciaba lo que no entendía; cosas que me eran ocultas, y que no las sabía.
4Oye, te ruego, y hablaré: te preguntaré, y tú me enseñarás.
5De oídas te había oído; mas ahora mis ojos te ven.
6Por tanto me aborrezco, y me arrepiento en el polvo y en la ceniza.
7Y aconteció que después que habló Jehová estas palabras á Job, Jehová dijo á Eliphaz Temanita: Mi ira se encendió contra ti y tus dos compañeros: porque no habéis hablado por mí lo recto, como mi siervo Job.
8Ahora pues, tomaos siete becerros y siete carneros, y andad á mi siervo Job, y ofreced holocausto por vosotros, y mi siervo Job orará por vosotros; porque de cierto á él atenderé para no trataros afrentosamente, por cuanto no habéis hablado por mí con rectitud, como mi siervo Job.
9Fueron pues Eliphaz Temanita, y Bildad Suhita, y Sophar Naamatita, é hicieron como Jehová les dijo: y Jehová atendió á Job.
10Y mudó Jehová la aflicción de Job, orando él por sus amigos: y aumentó al doble todas las cosas que habían sido de Job.
11Y vinieron á él todos sus hermanos, y todas sus hermanas, y todos los que antes le habían conocido, y comieron con él pan en su casa, y condoliéronse de él, y consoláronle de todo aquel mal que sobre él había Jehová traído; y cada uno de ellos le dió una pieza de moneda, y un zarcillo de oro.
12Y bendijo Jehová la postrimería de Job más que su principio; porque tuvo catorce mil ovejas, y seis mil camellos, y mil yuntas de bueyes, y mil asnas.
13Y tuvo siete hijos y tres hijas.
14Y llamó el nombre de la una, Jemimah, y el nombre de la segunda, Cesiah, y el nombre de la tercera, Keren-happuch.
15Y no se hallaron mujeres tan hermosas como las hijas de Job en toda la tierra: y dióles su padre herencia entre sus hermanos.
16Y después de esto vivió Job ciento y cuarenta años, y vió á sus hijos, y á los hijos de sus hijos, hasta la cuarta generación.
17Murió pues Job viejo, y lleno de días.
King James Version
1Then Job answered the LORD, and said,
2I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee.
3Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.
4Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me.
5I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.
6Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.
7And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD 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.
8Therefore take unto you now 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: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job.
9So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them: the LORD also accepted Job.
10And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
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 over all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.
12So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
13He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Keren-happuch.
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.
16After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations.
17So Job died, being old and full of days.

1Then Job answered the LORD:
2“I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained.
3You 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.
4You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’
5I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you.
6Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”
7It was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD 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.
8Now 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.”
9So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the LORD commanded them, and the LORD accepted Job.
10The LORD restored Job’s prosperity when he prayed for his friends. The LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11Then all his brothers, all his sisters, and all those who had been of his acquaintance before, came to him and ate bread with him in his house. They comforted him, and consoled him concerning all the evil that the LORD had brought on him. Everyone also gave him a piece of money, and everyone a ring of gold.
12So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.
13He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14He called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren Happuch.
15In all the land were no women found so beautiful as the daughters of Job. Their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.
16After this Job lived one hundred forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, to four generations.
17So Job died, being old and full of days.
