Yoube 1
1 Dunu afae ea dio amo Yoube e da Ase soge ganodini esalu. E da Godema nodone sia: ne gadolalu amola mae fisili Ema fa: no bobogelalu. Ea hou da noga: i amola e da wadela: i hamosu hame dawa: i.
There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and Job was blameless and upright, one who feared God and turned from evil.
2 E da dunu mano fesuale amola uda mano udiana esalu.
There were born to him seven sons and three daughters.
3 E da sibi 7000, ga: mele 3000, bulamagau 1000 amola dougi500agoane gagui galu. E da hawa: hamosu dunu bagohame ouligisu, amola ea gagui da dunu huluane eso maba gusudili soge ganodini esalu, ilia gagui amo baligi dagoi.
He possessed seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred pairs of oxen, and five hundred donkeys and a great many servants. He was the man who was the greatest of all the people of the East.
4 Yoube egefelali ilia da higagale lolo nasu hamosu. Amola Yoube ea mano oda ilia da amoga masu. Amola ilia dalusilali misa: ne hiougisu.
On each son's assigned day, he would give a feast in his house. They would send and call for their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
5 Lolo nanu gesafo, Yoube da hahabedafa wa: legadole, ea mano ilia wadela: i hou dodofema: ne, gobele salasu hamonanusu. Bai ea mano afae da mae dawa: iwane Godema gadesu hamosa: besa: le, e da agoane hamosu.
When the days of the feast were over, Job would send for them and he would consecrate them. He would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings for each of his children, for he would say, “It may be that my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.” Job always did this.
6 Eso amoga Hebene ganodini esalebe a: silibu da Hina Gode midadi doaga: loba, Sa: ida: ne da ili gilisili manebe ba: i.
Then it was the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Yahweh. Satan also came with them.
7 Hina Gode da Sa: ida: nema amane adole ba: i, “Di da adi hamonanula: ?” Sa: ida: ne da bu adole i, “Na da goeguda: amola goega huluane, osobo bagade sisiga: sa lalu.”
Yahweh said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered Yahweh and said, “From wandering on the earth, from going back and forth on it.”
8 Hina Gode da amane adole ba: i, “Di da Na hawa: hamosu dunu Yoube amo dia ba: bela: ? Dunu osobo bagade ganodini fi noga: le fa: no bobogesu dunu e agoai da hame. E da Nama fawane sia: ne gadosa, amola e da wadela: le hamosa: besa: le, dawa: iwane Nama fa: no bobogelala.”
Yahweh said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and turns from evil.”
9 Sa: ida: ne da bu adole i, “Yoube da Dima bidi hame lasea, e da Dima nodone sia: ne gadoma: bela: ?
Then Satan answered Yahweh and said, “Does Job fear God without reason?
10 Di da eso huluane, e amola ea sosogo amola ea gagui huluane, amo noga: le gaga: lala. Dia da ea hawa: hamosu huluane nodoma: ne hamosa. Amola di da soge huluane nabama: ne, bulamagau bagohamedafa ema i.
Have you not put a barrier around him, around his house, and around all that is his from every side? You have blessed the deeds of his hands, and his cattle have burst forth in the land.
11 Be Di da ea gagui huluane bu samogesea, e da Dia odagia gagabusu aligima: mu!”
But now stretch out your hand and touch all that he has, and see if he does not curse you to your face.”
12 Hina Gode da Sa: ida: nema amane sia: i, “Defea! Na da liligi huluane ea gagui amo dia lobo da: iya ligisisa. Be Yoube ea da: i hodo mae se nabasima!” Amalalu, Sa: ida: ne da fisili asi.
Yahweh said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your hand. Only against him himself do not stretch out your hand.” Then Satan went away from the presence of Yahweh.
13 Eso afaega, Yoube ea mano ilia da ilia ola magobo ea diasuga lolo nanu.
It came about that on a certain day, his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house.
14 Sia: adola ahoasu dunu afae da hehenaia misini, Youbema doaga: le, amane sia: i, “Ninia da bugia osobo gidinasu bulamagauga bagesili osobo dogonanu. Dia dougi ilia gisi soge gadenene esalebe ba: i.
A messenger came to Job and said, “The oxen were plowing and the donkeys were feeding beside them.
15 Hedolodafa, Sa: bia: ne dunu da ninima doagala: le, dougi huluane wamolai dagoi. Ilia da dia hawa: hamosu dunu huluane medole lelegei. Na fawane da hobea: i. Na fawane da hobeale misini, dima adosa.”
Then the Sabeans fell on them and took them away. As for the servants, they have struck them with the edge of the sword. I alone have escaped to tell you.”
16 Ea sia: da hame dagoiawane, hawa: hamosu dunu enowane misini, amane sia: i, “Ha: ha: na bagade gala: le, sibi huluane amola sibi ouligisu dunu huluane amo medole lelegei dagoi. Na fawane da mae bogole, hobeale misini, dima adola misi.”
While he was still speaking, another also came and said, “The fire of God fell from the heavens and burned up the sheep and the servants. I alone have escaped to tell you.”
17 Ea sia: da hame dagoiawane, hawa: hamosu dunu enowane misini, amane sia: i, “Ga: ledia: ne gilisisu udiana ilia da ninima doagala: le, ga: mele huluane sasamogene, dia hawa: hamosu dunu huluane fane lelegei. Be na fawane da hobeale misini, dima adola misi.”
While he was still speaking, another also came and said, “The Chaldeans formed three groups, attacked the camels, and have taken them away. As for the servants, they have struck them with the edge of the sword. I alone have escaped to tell you.”
18 Ea sia: da hame dagoiawane, hawa: hamosu dunu enowane misini, Youbema amane sia: i, “Dia mano da dia magobo mano ea diasuga lolo nanu.
While he was yet speaking, another also came and said, “Your sons and your daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house.
19 Amalalu, hafoga: i sogeganini, mulu bagade da misini, diasu mugululi, dia mano huluane amoga bogogia: i. Na fawane da mae bogole, hobeale misini, dima adola misi.”
A strong wind came from the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house. It fell on the young people, and they died. I alone have escaped to tell you.”
20 Amalalu, Yoube da wa: legadole, da: i dioiba: le, hina: abula gagadelale sali. E da dialuma gesele, odagi guduli, osobo da: iya gala: la sa: i.
Then Job rose, tore his robe, shaved his head, lay facedown on the ground, and worshiped God.
21 E da amane sia: i, “Na da da: i nabadowane lalelegei, amola na da da: i nabadowane bogole masunu. Hina Gode da liligi huluane Nama i galu, be wali Hi bu lai. Ea Dio amoma nodone sia: mu da defea.”
He said, “I was naked when I came out of my mother's womb, and I will be naked when I will return there. It is Yahweh who gave, and it is Yahweh who has taken away. May the name of Yahweh be blessed.”
22 Yoube ema se nabasu bagadedafa doaga: i. Be amomane, e da Godema bai sia: ne wadela: le hame hamoi.
In all this matter, Job did not sin, nor did he accuse God of wrongdoing.
