Imphendvulo yaJobe yekugcina
1Jobe waphendvula Simakadze, watsi:
2 “Ngiyati kutsi wena unemandla ekwenta konkhe,
kute muntfu longaphatamisa
loko lese uhlose kukwenta.
3 Ubute watsi: ‘Ngubani yena lona longati lutfo
lokhinyabete teluleko tami?’
Empeleni nami ngikhulume ngetintfo lengingaticondzi,
tintfo letimangalisa kakhulu kutsi ngingatati.
4“Wena utsite: ‘Lalela-ke nyalo, ngitawukhuluma;
ngitakubuta, wena ungiphendvule.’
5Tindlebe tami setike teva ngawe,
kodvwa nyalo emehlo ami asakubonile.
6 Ngako-ke manje sengiyatenyanya,
ngiyaphendvuka ngitilahla elutfulini nasemlotseni.”
Siphetfo
7Watsi Simakadze nasakhulume lamavi kuJobe, wagucukela ku-Elifazi, umThemani, watsi: “Wena nalabangani bakho lababili nginitfukutselele, ngobe anikakhulumi lokuhle ngami njengobe Jobe, inceku yami, akhulumile. 8 Ngako-ke tsatsani tinkunzi letisikhombisa netihhanca letisikhombisa, nihambe niye kuJobe, inceku yami, nifike ninikele ngato, tibe ngumnikelo wenu wekushiswa. Jobe, inceku yami, utanithandazela, mine-ke ngitawemukela nalomthandazo wakhe nginganiphatsi kamatima njengalokufanele bulima benu. Anikakhulumi lokuhle ngami njengobe Jobe, inceku yami, akhulumile.” 9 Ngako Elifazi, umThemani, naBildadi, umShuhi, naSofari, umNama, benta loko Simakadze abebatjele kona; Simakadze wawemukela umthandazo waJobe.
10 Watsi kube Jobe athandazele labangani bakhe, Simakadze wamenta wanjinga futsi; wanjinga ngalokuphindvwe kabili kunakucala. 11 Bonkhe bomnakabo, nabodzadzewabo, nabo bonkhe lababemati kucala beta kuye badla naye endlini yakhe. Bamkhalela, bamdvudvuta kuko konkhe loko kuhlupheka Simakadze labekuletse etikwakhe; kwatsi lowo nalowo wamupha luhlavu lwesiliva kanye nendandatho yegolide.
12 Simakadze imphilo yaJobe yamuva wayibusisa kakhulu kwengca yakucala. Abenetimvu letiti-14 000, nemakamela lati-6 000, netinkhabi letitinkhulungwane letimbili, netimbongolo letiyinkhulungwane. 13Abenemadvodzana lasikhombisa nemadvodzakati lamatsatfu. 14Libito lendvodzakati yakhe yekucala bekunguJemima, yesibili kunguKhesiya, yesitsatfu kunguKhereni Haphukhi. 15Kulo lonkhe live bekute besifazane lababebahle kwendlula emadvodzakati aJobe; uyise wawabela lifa kanye nebafowabo.
16 Emvakwaloko, Jobe waphila iminyaka leli-140; waze wabona bantfwabakhe, nebantfwana bebantfwabakhe, kwaze kwayawufika esitukulwaneni sesine. 17 Jobe wafa asamdzala, asakhulile ngeminyaka.
