Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1Then Job replied to the LORD:
1Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ἰὼβ, λέγει τῷ Κυρίῳ,
2“I know that You can do all things and that no plan of Yours can be thwarted.
2Οἶδα ὅτι πάντα δύνασαι, ἀδυνατεῖ δέ σοι οὐδέν.
3You asked, ‘Who is this who conceals My counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.
3Τίς γάρ ἐστιν ὁ κρύπτων σε βουλήν; φειδόμενος δὲ ῥημάτων, καὶ σὲ οἴεται κρύπτειν; τίς δὲ ἀναγγελεῖ μοι ἃ οὐκ ᾔδειν, μεγάλα καὶ θαυμαστὰ ἃ οὐκ ἐπιστάμην;
4You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak. I will question you, and you shall inform Me.’
4Ἄκουσον δέ μου Κύριε, ἵνα κᾀγὼ λαλήσω· ἐρωτήσω δέ σε, σὺ δέ με δίδαξον.
5My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.
5Ἀκοὴν μὲν ὠτὸς ἤκουόν σου τὸ πρότερον, νυνὶ δὲ ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου ἑώρακέ σε.
6Therefore I retract my words, and I repent in dust and ashes.”
6Διὸ ἐφαύλισα ἐμαυτὸν, καὶ ἐτάκην· ἥγημαι δὲ ἐμαυτὸν γῆν καὶ σποδόν.
7After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and your two friends. For you have not spoken about Me accurately, as My servant Job has.
7Ἐγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὸ λαλῆσαι τὸν Κύριον πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα τῷ Ἰώβ, εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος Ἐλὺιφὰς τῷ Θαιμανὺίτῃ, ἥμαρτες σὺ, καὶ οἱ δὺο φίλοι σου· οὐ γὰρ ἐλαλήσατε ἐνώπιόν μου ἀληθὲς οὐδὲν, ὥσπερ ὁ θεράπων μου Ἰώβ.
8So now, take seven bulls and seven rams, go to My servant Job, and sacrifice a burnt offering for yourselves. Then My servant Job will pray for you, for I will accept his prayer and not deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken accurately about Me, as My servant Job has.”
8Νῦν δὲ λάβετε ἑπτὰ μόσχους, καὶ ἑπτὰ κριοὺς, καὶ πορεύθητε πρὸς τὸν θεράποντά μου Ἰὼβ, καὶ ποιήσει κάρπωσιν ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν. Ἰὼβ δὲ ὁ θεράπων μου εὔξεται περὶ ὑμῶν, ὅτι εἰ μὴ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ λήψομαι· εἰ μὴ γὰρ διʼ αὐτὸν, ἀπώλεσα ἂν ὑμᾶς· οὐ γὰρ ἐλαλήσατε ἀληθὲς κατὰ τοῦ θεράποντός μου Ἰώβ.
9So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD had told them; and the LORD accepted Job’s request.
9Ἐπορεύθη δὲ Ἐλιφὰζ ὁ Θαιμανίτης, καὶ Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχίτης, καὶ Σωφὰρ ὁ Μιναῖος, καὶ ἐποίησαν καθὼς συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Κύριος· καὶ ἔλυσε τὴν ἁμαρτίαν αὐτοῖς διὰ Ἰὼβ.
10After Job had prayed for his friends, the LORD restored his prosperity and doubled his former possessions.
10Ὁ δὲ Κύριος ηὔξησε τὸν Ἰώβ· εὐξαμένου δὲ αὐτοῦ καὶ περὶ τῶν φίλων αὐτοῦ, ἀφῆκεν αὐτοῖς τὴν ἁμαρτίαν· ἔδωκε δὲ ὁ Κύριος διπλᾶ, ὅσα ἦν ἔμπροσθεν Ἰὼβ εἰς διπλασιασμόν.
11All his brothers and sisters and prior acquaintances came and dined with him in his house. They consoled him and comforted him over all the adversity that the LORD had brought upon him. And each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring.
11Ἤκουσαν δὲ πάντες οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ αἱ ἀδελφαὶ αὐτοῦ πάντα τὰ συμβεβηκότα αὐτῷ, καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς αὐτὸν, καὶ πάντες ὅσοι ᾔδεισαν αὐτὸν ἐκ πρώτου· φαγόντες δὲ καὶ πιόντες παρʼ αὐτῷ παρεκάλεσαν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐθαύμασαν ἐπὶ πᾶσιν οἷς ἐπήγαγεν ἐπʼ αὐτῷ ὁ Κύριος· ἔδωκε δὲ αὐτῷ ἕκαστος ἀμνάδα μίαν, καὶ τετράδραχμον χρυσοῦ καὶ ἀσήμου.
12So the LORD blessed Job’s latter days more than his first. He owned 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.
12Ὁ δὲ Κύριος εὐλόγησε τὰ ἔσχατα Ἰὼβ, ἢ τὰ ἔμπροσθεν· ἦν δὲ τὰ κτήνη αὐτοῦ, πρόβατα μύρια τετρακισχίλια, κάμηλοι ἑξακισχίλιαι, ζεύγη βοῶν χίλια, ὄνοι θήλειαι νομάδες χίλιαι.
13And he also had seven sons and three daughters.
13Γεννῶνται δὲ αὐτῷ υἱοὶ ἑπτὰ, καὶ θυγατέρες τρεῖς.
14He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch.
14Καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὴν μὲν πρώτην, Ἡμέραν· τὴν δὲ δευτέραν, Κασίαν· τὴν δὲ τρίτην, Ἀμαλθαίας κέρας.
15No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters could be found in all the land, and their father granted them an inheritance among their brothers.
15Καὶ οὐχ εὑρέθησαν κατὰ τὰς θυγατέρας Ἰὼβ, βελτίους αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ ὑπʼ οὐρανόν· ἔδωκε δὲ αὐταῖς ὁ πατὴρ κληρονομίαν ἐν τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς.
16After this, Job lived 140 years and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation.
16Ἔζησε δὲ Ἰὼβ μετὰ τὴν πληγὴν ἔτη ἑκατὸν ἑβδομήκοντα· τὰ δὲ πάντα ἔτη ἔζησε, διακόσια τεσσράκοντα· καὶ Σἴδεν Ἰὼβ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ, τετάρτην γενεάν.
17And so Job died, old and full of years.
17Καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν Ἰὼβ πρεσβύτερος, καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν· γέγραπται δὲ, αὐτὸν πάλιν ἀναστήσεσθαι μεθʼ ὧν ὁ Κύριος ἀνίστησιν. Οὗτος ἑρμηνεύεται ἐκ τῆς Συριακῆς βίβλου, ἐν μὲν γῇ κατοικῶν τῇ Αὐσίτιδι, ἐπὶ τοῖς ὁρίοις τῆς Ἰδουμαίας καὶ Ἀραβίας· προϋπῆρχε δὲ αὐτῷ ὄνομα Ἰωβάβ· λαβὼν δὲ γυναῖκα Ἀράβισσαν, γεννᾷ υἱὸν, ᾧ ὄνομα Ἐννών· ἦν δὲ αὐτὸς πατρὸς μὲν Ζαρὲ ἐκ τῶν Ἡσαῦ υἱῶν υἱὸς, μητρὸς δὲ Βοσόῤῥας, ὥστε εἶναι αὐτὸν πέμπτον ἀπὸ Ἁβραάμ· καὶ οὗτοι οἱ βασιλεῖς οἱ βασιλεύσαντες ἐν Ἐδὼμ, ἧς καὶ αὐτὸς ἦρξε χώρας· πρῶτος Βαλὰκ ὁ τοῦ Βεὼρ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ πόλει αὐτοῦ Δενναβά· μετὰ δὲ Βαλὰκ, Ἰωβὰβ ὁ καλούμενος Ἰώβ· μετὰ δὲ τοῦτον, Ἀσὼμ ὁ ὑπάρχων ἡγεμὼν ἐκ τῆς Θαιμανίτιδος χώρας· μετὰ δὲ τοῦτον, Ἀδὰδ υἱὸς Βαρὰδ, ὁ ἐκκόψας Μαδιὰμ ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ Μωὰβ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ πόλει αὐτοῦ Γεθαίμ· οἱ δὲ ἐλθόντες πρὸς αὐτὸν φίλοι, Ἐλιφὰς τῶν Ἡσαῦ υἱῶν Θαιμανῶν βασιλεὺς, Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχαίων τύραννος, Σωφὰρ ὁ Μιναίων βασιλεύς.
