29 Jobi e rifilloi ligjëratën e tij dhe tha:
2 "Ah, sikur të isha si në muajt e së kaluarës, si në ditët kur Perëndia më mbronte,
3 kur llamba e tij shkëlqente mbi kokën time dhe me dritën e saj ecja në mes të errësirës;
4 siç isha në ditët e pjekurisë sime, kur mendja e fshehtë e Perëndisë kujdesej për çadrën time,
5 kur i Plotfuqishmi ishte akoma me mua dhe bijtë e mi më rrinin përqark;
6 kur laja këmbët e mia në gjalpë dhe shkëmbi derdhte për mua rrëke vaji.
7 Kur dilja ne drejtim të portës së qytetit dhe ngrija fronin tim në shesh,
8 të rinjtë, duke më parë, hiqeshin mënjanë, pleqtë ngriheshin dhe qëndronin më këmbë;
9 princat ndërprisnin bisedat dhe vinin dorën mbi gojë;
10 zëri i krerëve bëhej më i dobët dhe gjuha e tyre ngjitej te qiellza.
11 veshi që më dëgjonte, më shpallte të lumtur, dhe syri që më shihte, dëshmonte për mua,
12 sepse çliroja të varfrin që klithte për ndihmë, dhe jetimin që nuk kishte njeri që ta ndihmonte.
13 Bekimi i atij që ishte duke vdekur zbriste mbi mua dhe unë e gëzoja zemrën e gruas së ve.
14 Isha i veshur me drejtësi dhe ajo më mbulonte; drejtësia ime më shërbente si mantel dhe si çallmë.
15 Isha sy për të verbërin dhe këmbë për çalamanin;
16 isha një baba për të varfrit dhe hetoja rastin që nuk njihja.
17 I thyeja nofullat njeriut të keq dhe rrëmbeja gjahun nga dhëmbët e tij.
18 Dhe mendoja: "Kam për të vdekur në folenë time dhe do të shumëzoj ditët e mia si rëra;
19 rrënjët e mia do të zgjaten në drejtim të ujërave, vesa do të qëndrojë tërë natën në degën time;
20 lavdia ime do të jetë gjithnjë e re tek unë dhe harku im do të fitojë forcë të re në dorën time".
21 Të pranishmit më dëgjonin duke pritur dhe heshtnin për të dëgjuar këshillën time.
22 Mbas fjalës sime ata nuk përgjigjeshin, dhe fjalët e mia binin mbi ta si pika vese.
23 Më prisnin ashtu si pritet shiu dhe hapnin gojën e tyre si për shiun e fundit.
24 Unë u buzëqeshja kur kishin humbur besimin, dhe nuk mund ta pakësonin dritën e fytyrës sime.
25 Kur shkoja tek ata, ulesha si kryetar dhe rrija si një mbret midis trupave të tij, si një që ngushëllon të dëshpëruarit.

Job’s Final Defense
29 Job continued his discourse:(A)
2 “How I long for the months gone by,(B)
for the days when God watched over me,(C)
3 when his lamp shone on my head
and by his light I walked through darkness!(D)
4 Oh, for the days when I was in my prime,
when God’s intimate friendship(E) blessed my house,(F)
5 when the Almighty was still with me
and my children(G) were around me,(H)
6 when my path was drenched with cream(I)
and the rock(J) poured out for me streams of olive oil.(K)
7 “When I went to the gate(L) of the city
and took my seat in the public square,
8 the young men saw me and stepped aside(M)
and the old men rose to their feet;(N)
9 the chief men refrained from speaking(O)
and covered their mouths with their hands;(P)
10 the voices of the nobles were hushed,(Q)
and their tongues stuck to the roof of their mouths.(R)
11 Whoever heard me spoke well of me,
and those who saw me commended me,(S)
12 because I rescued the poor(T) who cried for help,
and the fatherless(U) who had none to assist them.(V)
13 The one who was dying blessed me;(W)
I made the widow’s(X) heart sing.
14 I put on righteousness(Y) as my clothing;
justice was my robe and my turban.(Z)
15 I was eyes(AA) to the blind
and feet to the lame.(AB)
16 I was a father to the needy;(AC)
I took up the case(AD) of the stranger.(AE)
17 I broke the fangs of the wicked
and snatched the victims(AF) from their teeth.(AG)
18 “I thought, ‘I will die in my own house,
my days as numerous as the grains of sand.(AH)
19 My roots will reach to the water,(AI)
and the dew will lie all night on my branches.(AJ)
20 My glory will not fade;(AK)
the bow(AL) will be ever new in my hand.’(AM)
21 “People listened to me expectantly,
waiting in silence for my counsel.(AN)
22 After I had spoken, they spoke no more;(AO)
my words fell gently on their ears.(AP)
23 They waited for me as for showers
and drank in my words as the spring rain.(AQ)
24 When I smiled at them, they scarcely believed it;
the light of my face(AR) was precious to them.[a](AS)
25 I chose the way for them and sat as their chief;(AT)
I dwelt as a king(AU) among his troops;
I was like one who comforts mourners.(AV)

King James Version
29 Moreover Job continued his parable, and said,
2 Oh that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me;
3 When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness;
4 As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle;
5 When the Almighty was yet with me, when my children were about me;
6 When I washed my steps with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil;
7 When I went out to the gate through the city, when I prepared my seat in the street!
8 The young men saw me, and hid themselves: and the aged arose, and stood up.
9 The princes refrained talking, and laid their hand on their mouth.
10 The nobles held their peace, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth.
11 When the ear heard me, then it blessed me; and when the eye saw me, it gave witness to me:
12 Because I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless, and him that had none to help him.
13 The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me: and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
15 I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.
16 I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.
17 And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.
18 Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the sand.
19 My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch.
20 My glory was fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand.
21 Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel.
22 After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.
23 And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for the latter rain.
24 If I laughed on them, they believed it not; and the light of my countenance they cast not down.
25 I chose out their way, and sat chief, and dwelt as a king in the army, as one that comforteth the mourners.
