Lapho kubonakala sengathi uJobe wayengase afe, uElihu wasibona isimo sikaJobe esintengantengayo futhi wabeka isisekelo sethemba, ethi: “Inyama yakhe iyadliwa, ingabe isabonwa . . . Umphefumulo wakhe uyasondela egodini, nokuphila kwakhe kubabulali. Uma kukhona ingelosi kuye, nehumusha noma yiliphi enkulungwaneni lokuba litshele umuntu okumlungeleyo, uNkulunkulu abeseba-nomusa kuye, athi: Mkhulule ukuba angehleli egodini, sengitholile [inhla]wulo, inyama yakhe ibentsha kuneyomntwana.”—Jobe 33:21-25.

Yilokho okwenzeka. UJobe ‘wazisola othulini nasemlotheni.’ Kwase kwenzekani? “UJehova wambuyisa uJobe ekuhluphekeni . . . Kanjalo uJehova wabusisa ukugcina kukaJobe kunokuqala kwakhe . . . Emva kwalokho uJobe wayesekhona iminyaka eyikhulu namashumi amane, wabona amadodana akhe namadodana amadodana akhe kwaze kwaba-yizizukulwane ezine.” Kuyavunywa, leyonhlawulo ayizange imkhulule uJobe esonweni, ngakho ngokuhamba kwesikhathi wafa. Nokho, ukwandiswa kokuphila kwakhe kubonisa ukuthi, ngokuphumelelayo, ‘inyama yakhe yabantsha kuneyomntwana, wabuyela emihleni yobusha bakhe.’—Jobe 33:25; 42:6, 10-17.
