Yoube 24
1 Gode da abuliba: le fofada: su eso hame ilegesala: ? Abuliba: le Ema hawa: hamosu dunu da moloidafa sia: ma: ne, fofada: su eso hame ilegesala: ?
Why doesn't the Almighty set a definite time to punish the wicked? Why don't those who follow him never see him act in judgment?
2 Dunu ilia da soge eno lama: ne, alalo legesu afadenesa. Ilia sibi wa: i gilisima: ne, eno sibi wamolasa.
The wicked move boundary stones; they seize other people's flocks and move them to their own pastures.
3 Ilia da guluba: mano ilia dougi wamolasa, amola didalo ea dabe bu ima: ne sesesa, ea bulamagau samogesa.
They steal the orphan's donkey; they take the widow's ox as security for a debt.
4 Ilia hame gagui dunu amo moloidafa hou ba: ma: ne logo hedofasa. Amola ilia hahani dunu sesebeba: le, ilia hobeale, wamoaligisa.
They push the poor out of their way; the destitute are forced to hide from them.
5 Amaiba: le, hame gagui dunu da sigua dougi agoane, wadela: i hafoga: i sogega ilia ha: i manu hogosa. Ilia manogili ha: i manu ima: ne, sogebi eno hame ba: sa.
Like wild donkeys in the desert, the poor have to scavenge for their food, looking for anything to feed their children in the wasteland.
6 Ilia da soge hame gaguiba: le, inia ifabia dadamisa. Ilia wadela: i hamosu dunu ilia waini sagaiga waini fage faisa.
They are forced to find what they can in other people's fields, to glean among the vineyards of the wicked.
7 Gasia, ilia abula sosone diasu hameba: le, anegagini golasa.
They spend the night naked because they have no clothes; they have nothing to cover themselves against the cold.
8 Gibu amo da goumia daha amoga ilia da: i nanegasa. Ilia da nanegaiga anegagiba: le, igihaguga aliligisa.
They are soaked by the cold mountain storms, and huddle beside the rocks for shelter.
9 Wadela: le hamosu dunu da guluba: mano dudubu ili udigili hawa: hamoma: ne laha. Eno dunu da ilima dabe bu imunu galea, ilia da ilia mano amoga dabe imunusa: agoane samogesa.
Fatherless children are snatched from their mother's breasts, taking the babies of the poor as security for a debt.
10 Be hame gagui dunu da da: i nabado agoane ahoa. Ilia ha: aligiwane widi ha: i manu gamisa.
Because they have no clothes to wear they have to go naked, harvesting sheaves of grain while they themselves are hungry.
11 Ilia da olife susuligi hamomusa: , olife fage banesa, amola waini hano hamoma: ne, waini fage ososa: gisa, be ilila: da hano hanai.
In the olive groves they work to produce oil, but do not taste it; they tread the winepress, but are thirsty.
12 Moilai bai bagade ganodini, fofa: gi amola bogolalebe dunu ilia se nabawane wele sia: sa. Be Gode da ilia sia: ne gadosu hame naba.
In the city the dying groan, and the wounded cry for help, but God ignores their prayers.
13 Wadela: i hamosu dunu da hadigidafa higasa. Ilia da amo hadigi hame dawa: digisa, amola amoma hame fa: no bobogesa.
These are people who rebel against the light. They do not want to know its ways, or to stay on its paths.
14 Hehebolo mabe galu, medole legesu dunu da nedigili, wa: legadole, hame gagui dunu medole legemusa: ahoa. Gasia, e da wamolasu hou hamosa.
The murderer gets up at dawn to kill the poor and needy, and when night falls he becomes a thief.
15 Inia uda adole lasu dunu da gasima: ne ouesalu, dunu eno da e mae ba: ma: ne, ea odagi dedebosa.
The adulterer waits for dusk, saying to himself, ‘No one will see me now,’ and he covers his face.
16 Gasia, wamolasu dunu da diasu fili ganodini maha. Be hayoga ilia wamoaligisa amola hadigi ganodini hame ahoa.
Thieves break into houses during the night and they sleep during the day. They don't even know what the light is like!
17 Ilia da eso ea hadigi amoma beda: i gala. Be gasia ilia beda: su hame dawa:” Soufa da amane sia: i,
Total darkness is like light to them, for they are familiar with the night.
18 “Wadela: le hamosu dunu da hano leda: i amoga mini asi dagoi ba: sa. Gode da ilia soge amoga gagabusu aligima: ne sia: sa. Ilia da ilia waini sagaia hawa: hamomusa: hame ahoa.
Like bubbles on the surface of a river they are quickly carried away. The land they own is cursed by God. They don't enter their own vineyards.
19 Eso da gia: sea, mugene ofo da alalolesisa. Amo defele, wadela: i hamosu dunu da dunu esalebe sogega bu mae ba: ma: ne alalolesisa. (Sheol h7585)
Just as heat and drought dry up snowmelt, so Sheol takes away those who have sinned. (Sheol h7585)
20 Ilia emedafa da ili gogolelesisa. Daba: da ilia da: i na dagosa. Amola ilia da ifa fili sa: i defele dasasa.
Even their mothers forget them, maggots feast on them, they are no longer remembered, and their wickedness becomes like a tree that is broken into pieces.
21 Bai ilia da didalo ili se nabima: ne hamoi, amola aligime uda ilima hame asigi galu.
They mistreat childless women and are mean to widows.
22 Gode da gasa bagadeba: le, E da mimogo gasa bagade dunu gugunufinisisa. Gode Ea hamobeba: le, wadela: le hamosu dunu da bogogia: sa.
God prolongs the life of the wicked by his power; but when they arise, they have no assurance of life.
23 Gode da ili fonobahadi gaga: iwane esaloma: ne, logo doasisa. Be E da ili eso huluane ha: giwane sosodo aligisa.
He supports them and gives them security, but he is always watching what they're doing.
24 Wadela: le hamosu dunu da fonobahadi hahawane amola bagade gaguiwane esala. Be amalu ilia da gagalobo amola widi gisi damui defele, hedolo biosa.
Though they may be illustrious for a while, soon they are gone. They are brought down like all others, cut off like the heads of grain.
25 Amo da dafawane hame, nowa da sia: ma: bela: ? Nowa da na adoi da dafawane hame sia: ma: bela: ?”
If this isn't so, who can prove I'm a liar and there's nothing to what I say?”
