Wɔ nhoma no nyinaa mu no, Hiob bɛba abehu saa Onyankopɔn yi, ɛnyɛ sɛ ɔtreneeni ne Tumfo nko ara, na mmom sɛ Agya a ɔne no wɔ abusuabɔ, sɛnea na ɔte bere nyinaa. Ne gyinae kasa a ɛwɔ 42:5 no kyerɛ ne kwan no nyinaa: “seesei mʼani ahu wo.” 2Wɔwoo mmabarima baason ne mmabea baasa maa no. 3Ɔwɔ nguan 7,000, yoma 3,000, anantwi apaawa 500 ne mfurumbere 500, ne nkoa bebree a wɔwɔ ne fi; enti saa ɔbarima no na na ɔso sen apuei fam nkurɔfo nyinaa. 4Ne mmabarima no kɔ yɛ apontow wɔ wɔn mu biara fi wɔ ne da so, na wɔsoma kɔfrɛ wɔn nuabea baasa no sɛ wɔmmɛka wɔn ho nni nnuan na wɔnnom nsa. 5Bere a apontow nna no twam no, Hiob soma kɔfrɛ wɔn, na ɔtew wɔn ho; ɔsɔre anɔpa tutuutu bɔ ɔhyew afɔre ma wɔn mu biara. Efisɛ Hiob dwenee se, “Ebia me mma ayɛ bɔne, na wɔadome Onyankopɔn wɔ wɔn koma mu.” Eyi na Hiob yɛ daa.
Ɔsoro Badwa no Hyia
6Afei da bi, ɔsoro badwa no mufo baa sɛ wɔrebɛda wɔn ho adi wɔ yɛn Agya anim, na Satan nso ka wɔn ho baa.
7Yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ Satan se, “Ɛhe na wofi ba?” Satan buaa yɛn Agya se, “Mefi asase so kyinkyin ne so nenam mu.”
8Yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ Satan se, “Woahwɛ me somfo Hiob? Obiara nni asase so a ɔte sɛ no; ɔbarima a ne ho nni asɛm na ɔteɛ, ɔsuro Onyankopɔn, na ɔtwe ne ho fi bɔne ho.”
9Satan buaa yɛn Agya se, “Hiob suro Onyankopɔn kwa ana? 10So wode ban antwa ɔno ne ne fifo ne nea ɔwɔ nyinaa ho afanan nyinaa ana? Woahyira ne nsa ano adwuma, na nʼagyapade atrɛw wɔ asase no so. 11Nanso tene wo nsa, na fa bɔ nea ɔwɔ nyinaa, na ampa ara ɔbɛdome wo wʼanim.”
12Yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ Satan se, “Ɛyɛ; nea ɔwɔ nyinaa wɔ wo tumi ase. Nanso mfa wo nsa nka ɔbarima no ankasa.” Enti Satan fii yɛn Agya anim kɔe.
13Afei da bi a Hiob mmabarima ne ne mmabea redidi na wɔrenom nsa wɔ wɔn nuabarima panin fi no, 14na ɔbɔfo bi baa Hiob nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Anantwi no refuntum asase, na mfurum no nso redidi wɔ wɔn nkyɛn, 15na Sabeafo tow hyɛɛ yɛn so, de wɔn kɔe, na wɔde afoa ano kunkum nkoa no. Me nko ara na meguanee bɛka akyerɛ wo.”
16Bere a ɔgu so rekasa no, ɔfoforo bi bɛkae se, “Onyankopɔn gya fi ɔsoro tɔe, na ɛhyew nguan no ne nkoa no, sɛee wɔn. Me nko ara na meguanee bɛka akyerɛ wo.”
17Bere a ɔgu so rekasa no, ɔfoforo bi bɛkae se, “Babilonfo kyekyɛɛ wɔn ho akuw abiɛsa, tow hyɛɛ yoma no so, de wɔn kɔe, na wɔde afoa ano kunkum nkoa no. Me nko ara na meguanee bɛka akyerɛ wo.”
18Bere a ɔgu so rekasa no, ɔfoforo bi bɛkae se, “Wo mmabarima ne wo mmabea redidi na wɔrenom nsa wɔ wɔn nuabarima panin fi, 19na prɛko pɛ, mframa kɛse bi fi sare no so bɔ bae, na ɛbɔɔ ofi no ntwea anan no. Ofi no bu guu mmabun no so, na wɔawuwu. Me nko ara na meguanee bɛka akyerɛ wo.”
20Afei Hiob sɔree, sunsuanee nʼatade, yii ne ti nwi, na ɔbutuw fam somee. 21Ɔkae se, “Adagyaw na mefi me na yafunu mu bae, na adagyaw na mɛsan akɔ. Yɛn Agya na ɔmae, na wagye; ne din nhyira.” b b v21 Ɔhwere kɛse mu mpo no, Hiob hyira Nea ɔma na ɔgye no. Ɔde apam din no som, na FHB frɛ no yɛn Agya, abusuabɔ a Hiob rekɔ ho anim ansa na ɔbɛhu no yiye mpo. 22Eyi nyinaa mu, Hiob anyɛ bɔne, na wammɔ Onyankopɔn sobo sɛ wayɛ bɔne.
