SEV Biblia, Chapter 42:14
Y llamó el nombre de la una, Jemima, y el nombre de la segunda, Cesia, y el nombre de la tercera, Keren-hapuc.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Job 42:14
Verse 14. The name of the first Jemima ] hmymy yemimah, days upon days. Kezia - h[yxq ketsiah, cassia, a well-known aromatic plant. And, Keren-happuch. ] űwph rq keren happuch, the inverted or flowing horn, cornucopiae, the horn of plenty. The Chaldee will not permit these names to pass without a comment, to show the reason of their imposition: "He called the first Jemimah, because she was as fair as the day; the second Ketsiah, because she was as precious as cassia; the third Keren-happuch, because her face was as splendid as the emerald." Cardmarden's Bible, 1566, has the Hebrew names. The Vulgate has, "He called the name of one Day, of the second Cassia, and of the third The Horn of Antimony." The versions in general preserve these names, only the Septuagint, Syriac, and Arabic translate Jemimah, DAY; and the former for Keren- happuch has amalqaiav kerav, the horn of Amalthea.
This refers to an ancient fable. Amalthea was the nurse of Jupiter, and fed him with goat's milk when he was young. The goat having by accident her horn struck off, Jupiter translated the animal to the heavens, and gave her a place among the constellations, which she still holds; and made the horn the emblem of plenty: hence it is always pictured or described as filled with fruits, flowers, and the necessaries and luxuries of life. It is very strange how this fable got into the Septuagint. Coverdale is singular: The first he called 'Daye', the seconde 'Poverte', the thirde, 'All plenteousnes'.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-17 - In the beginning of this book we had Job's patience under his troubles for an example; here, for our encouragement to follow that example, we have his happy end. His troubles began in Satan's malice, which God restrained; his restoration began in God's mercy, which Satan could no oppose. Mercy did not return when Job was disputing with his friends but when he was praying for them. God is served and pleased with ou warm devotions, not with our warm disputes. God doubled Job' possessions. We may lose much for the Lord, but we shall not lose an thing by him. Whether the Lord gives us health and temporal blessing or not, if we patiently suffer according to his will, in the end we shall be happy. Job's estate increased. The blessing of the Lord make rich; it is he that gives us power to get wealth, and gives success i honest endeavours. The last days of a good man sometimes prove his best, his last works his best works, his last comforts his bes comforts; for his path, like that of the morning light, shines more an more unto the perfect day __________________________________________________________________
