| 1 | Then Job answered the Lord, and said: | Respondens autem Iob Domino, dixit: |
| 2 | I know that thou canst do all things, and no thought is hid from thee. | Scio quia omnia potes, et nulla te latet cogitatio. |
| 3 | Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore I have spoken unwisely, and things that above measure exceeded my knowledge. | Quis est iste qui celat consilium absque scientia? ideo insipienter locutus sum, et quae ultra modum excederent scientiam meam. |
| 4 | Hear, and I will speak: I will ask thee, and do thou tell me. | Audi, et ego loquar: interrogabo te, et responde mihi. |
| 5 | With the hearing of the ear, I have heard thee, but now my eye seeth thee. | Auditu auris audivi te: nunc autem oculus meus videt te. |
| 6 | Therefore I reprehend myself, and do penance in dust and ashes. | Idcirco ipse me reprehendo, et ago poenitentiam in favilla et cinere. |
| 7 | And after the Lord had spoken these words to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Themanite: My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends, because you have not spoken the thing that is right before my, as my servant Job hath. | Postquam autem locutus est Dominus verba haec ad Iob, dixit ad Eliphaz Themanitem: Iratus est furor meus in te, et in duos amicos tuos, quoniam non estis locuti coram me rectum, sicut servus meus Iob. |
| 8 | Take unto you therefore seven oxen, and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer for yourselves a holocaust: and my servant Job shall pray for you: his face I will accept, that folly be not imputed to you: for you have not spoken right things before me, as my servant Job hath. | Sumite ergo vobis septem tauros et septem arietes, et ite ad servum meum Iob, et offerte holocaustum pro vobis: Iob autem servus meus orabit pro vobis. Faciem eius suscipiam, ut non vobis imputetur stultitia: neque enim locuti estis ad me recta, sicut servus meus Iob. |
| 9 | So Eliphaz the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Sophar the Naamathite went, and did as the Lord had spoken to them, and the Lord accepted the face of Job. | Abierunt ergo Eliphaz Themanites, et Baldad Suhites, et Sophar Naamathites, et fecerunt sicut locutus fuerat Dominus ad eos: et suscepit Dominus faciem Iob. |
| 10 | The Lord also was turned at the penance of Job, when he prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. | Dominus quoque conversus est ad poenitentiam Iob, cum oraret ille pro amicis suis: et addidit Dominus omnia quaecumque fuerant Iob, duplicia. |
| 11 | And all his brethren came to him, and all his sisters, and all that knew him before, and they ate bread with him in his house: and bemoaned him, and comforted him upon all the evil that God had brought upon him. And every man gave him one ewe, and one earring of fold. | Venerunt autem ad eum omnes fratres sui, et universae sorores suae, et cuncti qui noverant eum prius, et comederunt cum eo panem in domo eius: et moverunt super eum caput, et consolati sunt eum super omni malo quod intulerat Dominus super eum: et dederunt ei unusquisque ovem unam, et inaurem auream unam. |
| 12 | And the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning. And he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. | Dominus autem benedixit novissimis Iob magis quam principio eius: et facta sunt ei quatuordecim millia ovium, et sex millia camelorum, et mille iuga boum, et mille asinae. |
| 13 | And he had seven sons, and three daughters. | Et fuerunt ei septem filii, et tres filiae. |
| 14 | And he called the names of one Dies, and the name of the second Cassia, and the name of the third Cornustibil. | Et vocavit nomen unius Diem, et nomen secundae Cassiam, et nomen tertiae Cornustibii. |
| 15 | And there were not found in all the earth women so beautiful as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. | Non sunt autem inventae mulieres speciosae sicut filiae Iob in universa terra: deditque eis pater suus haereditatem inter fratres earum. |
| 16 | And Job lived after these things, a hundred and forty years, and he saw his children, and his children’s children, unto the fourth generation, and he died an old man, and full of days. | Vixit autem Iob post haec centum quadraginta annis, et vidit filios suos, et filios filiorum suorum usque ad quartam generationem: et mortuus est senex, et plenus dierum. |
