< 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 named Job, and he was a simple and honest man, fearing God and withdrawing from evil.
2 E da dunu mano fesuale amola uda mano udiana esalu.
And there had been 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.
And his possession was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, along with five hundred pairs of oxen and five hundred she-donkeys, and also a very large family. And this man was great among 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.
And his sons went and made a feast by houses, each one on his day. And sending, they called 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.
And when the days of their feasting had been completed, Job sent to them and sanctified them, and, getting up at dawn, he offered holocausts for each one. For he said, “Perhaps my sons have sinned and have not praised God in their hearts.” So Job did all the days.
6 Eso amoga Hebene ganodini esalebe a: silibu da Hina Gode midadi doaga: loba, Sa: ida: ne da ili gilisili manebe ba: i.
But on a certain day, when the sons of God came to attend in the presence of the Lord, Satan also arrived among 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.”
The Lord said to him, “Where do you come from?” Answering, he said, “I have circled the land, and walked around in 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.”
And the Lord said to him, “Have you not considered my servant, Job? For there is no one like him in the land, a simple and honest man, fearing God and withdrawing from evil.”
9 Sa: ida: ne da bu adole i, “Yoube da Dima bidi hame lasea, e da Dima nodone sia: ne gadoma: bela: ?
Answering him, Satan said, “Does Job fear God to no purpose?
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 fortified him, as well as his house and every one of his belongings around him, blessed the works of his hands, and his possession has increased in the land?
11 Be Di da ea gagui huluane bu samogesea, e da Dia odagia gagabusu aligima: mu!”
But extend your hand a little, and touch all that he possesses, and see if he still praises 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.
Therefore, the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, everything that he has is in your hand, only do not extend your hand against him.” And Satan departed from the face of the Lord.
13 Eso afaega, Yoube ea mano ilia da ilia ola magobo ea diasuga lolo nanu.
So, on a certain day, when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine, in the house of their first-born brother,
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, who said, “The oxen were plowing, and the donkeys were grazing 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.”
and the Sabeans rushed in and carried away everything, and they struck the servants with the sword; and I alone evaded them 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.”
And while he was still speaking, another arrived, and he said, “The fire of God fell from heaven, and, having struck the sheep and the servants, it consumed them; and I alone 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.”
And while he also was still speaking, another arrived, and he said, “The Chaldeans organized three attacks, and advanced on the camels and took them; and not only that, but they have struck the servants with the sword; and I alone fled 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.
He was still speaking, and behold, another entered, and he said, “Your sons and daughters were feasting and drinking wine in the house of their first-born brother,
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.”
when suddenly a severe wind rushed forth from a region of the desert and shook the four corners of the house, which collapsed and crushed your children, and they are dead; and I alone 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 got up and tore his garments, and, having shaved his head, he collapsed on the ground, and worshipped,
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.”
and he said, “Naked I departed from my mother’s womb, and naked I shall return. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away. Just as it pleased the Lord, so has it been done. Blessed be the name of the Lord.”
22 Yoube ema se nabasu bagadedafa doaga: i. Be amomane, e da Godema bai sia: ne wadela: le hame hamoi.
In all this, Job did not sin by his lips, nor did he speak any foolish thing against God.
