Job 34
1 Then Elihu continued:
Hagi Elihu'a mago'ene amanage hu'ne,
2 “Hear my words, O wise men; give ear to me, O men of learning.
Knare antahi'zama eri'nana ne'moka nagrama hanua nanekere kagesa antenka nentahinka, ama' antahi'zama eri'nana ne'moka nagrama hanua nanekea akohenka mani'nenka antahio.
3 For the ear tests words as the mouth tastes food.
Hagi ne'zama tagite erinteta haga'ama neta konaza huno, maka nanekema tagesamo'ma antahia nanekea, tagesamo'a rezagane so'e huno nentahie.
4 Let us choose for ourselves what is right; let us learn together what is good.
E'ina hu'negu inagemo fatgo huno knare hu'nefi tagra'a rezaganeta negeta, rempi huta antahisune.
5 For Job has declared, ‘I am righteous, yet God has deprived me of justice.
Hagi Jopu'ma kema hifina anage hu'ne, nagrira ke'ni'a omane'neanagi, Anumzamo'a kema hu kankamuni'a eri atrege'na mago zana osu'noe huno hu'ne.
6 Would I lie about my case? My wound is incurable, though I am without transgression.’
Nagrira mago hazenke'ni'a omanegeno keni'a omane'ne. Hianagi vahe'mo'za nagrikura havige ne' mani'ne hu'za nehaze. Nagrira kumini'a omane'neanagi natama namino nevia natazamo'a vagaoresnia avamente nevie.
7 What man is like Job, who drinks up derision like water?
Hagi magora Jopukna nera iza mani'ne. Agra kizazokago ke huno vahe'ma zamaveri hu kege nehia ne' mani'ne.
8 He keeps company with evildoers and walks with wicked men.
Ana nehuno Jopu'a kumi'ma nehaza vahe'ene eri mago huno nemanino, kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'ene kna ahefrino nemanie.
9 For he has said, ‘It profits a man nothing that he should delight in God.’
Na'ankure Jopu'a huno, Anumzamofoma musema huntesnampintira mago zana e'origahane huno hu'ne.
10 Therefore listen to me, O men of understanding. Far be it from God to do wrong, and from the Almighty to act unjustly.
E'ina hu'negu ama' antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mota nagri naneke antahiho. Maka vahe'mo'zama antahi'nazana Anumzamo'a havi avu'avara nosia ne' mani'ne hu'za antahi'naze. Ana hu'neankino Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a mago hazenkea osugahie.
11 For according to a man’s deeds He repays him; according to a man’s ways He brings consequences.
Vahe'mo'zama hu'naza avu'avate anteno rezaganeno negeno, mizana zamitere nehia Anumza mani'ne.
12 Indeed, it is true that God does not act wickedly, and the Almighty does not pervert justice.
Tamagerfa huno Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a mago hazenke zana osugahie. Ana hu'neankino Hanavenentake Anumzamo'a fatgo huno refkoa hugahie.
13 Who gave Him charge over the earth? Who appointed Him over the whole world?
Iza ama mopa tro huteno, kegava huo huno Anumzamofonkura hunte'ne?
14 If He were to set His heart to it and withdraw His Spirit and breath,
Hagi Anumzamo'ma Agra'a avamu'ene, asimu'anema ete eriresina,
15 all flesh would perish together and mankind would return to the dust.
maka asimu'ma enerino kasefa'ma huno nemania zagamo'a fri vaganeregeno, maka vahe'mo'za fri'za ete mopasazaresine.
16 If you have understanding, hear this; listen to my words.
E'ina hu'negu Jopuga ama' antahi'zane vahe mani'noema hunka hanunka, nagrama nehua nanekere kagesa ante'nenka antahio.
17 Could one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn the just and mighty One,
Kagrama antahinana fatgo avu'ava zanku'ma avesrama hiresina, Anumzamo'a ama mopa kegava hunora viresimpi? E'ina hu'negu Hankave nentake huno fatgoma hu'nea Anumzamo'ma refko'ma hania zantera, mago hazenke hu'ne hunka huamara huntegahampi?
18 who says to kings, ‘You are worthless!’ and to nobles, ‘You are wicked,’
Anumzamo'a kini vahekura huno, mago zana huga vahera omani'naze nehuno, zamagima me'nea vahekura huno havi avu'avaza nehaza vahe mani'naze huno nehie.
19 who is not partial to princes and does not favor rich over poor? For they are all the work of His hands.
Anumzamo maka vahera Agra'a tro huzmante'neankino, agi me'nea vahe'ene zago vahekukera nehuno, zamagi omne vahe'ene zamunte omne vahera zamage amne zanknara nosianki, Agri avurera mago avamenteke mani'naze.
20 They die in an instant, in the middle of the night. The people convulse and pass away; the mighty are removed without human hand.
Vahe'mo'za osi'a knafi ame hu'za nefrize. Kenage amu'nompi friza nevazageno, hankave vahera Anumzamo'a zamahe nefrie.
21 For His eyes are on the ways of a man, and He sees his every step.
Na'ankure maka vahe'mo'zama haza zana Anumzamo'a negeno, maka avu'ava zama hazana nege.
22 There is no darkness or deep shadow where the workers of iniquity can hide.
Hanima nehia zamo'a Anumzamofo avua resoa osanigeno, maka kumira amate kegahie.
23 For God need not examine a man further or have him approach for judgment.
E'ina hu'negu tagra kna huhampri'neta ana knarera esanunkeno, Anumzamo'a refkoa huorantegahie.
24 He shatters the mighty without inquiry and sets up others in their place.
Anumzamo'a mago hankave vahe'ma azeri havizama hunakura, vahera antahigeteno anara nosie. Ana'ma nehuno'a ana vahe nontera ruvahe azeri o'netie.
25 Therefore, He recognizes their deeds; He overthrows them in the night and they are crushed.
Ana vahe'mo'za nehaza zamavu zmavara keno antahino hu'ne. Ana hu'neankino kenageke'za ana vahera zamahe fanane nehie.
26 He strikes them for their wickedness in full view,
Hagi havi vahe'mo'zama zamavu'zmava zama hu'naza zamofo nona'a, amate zamazeri haviza nehige'za vahe'mo'za nezamagaze.
27 because they turned aside from Him and had no regard for any of His ways.
Anama nehiana na'ankure Anumzamo'ma hihoma huno hiazana nosu'za, Agri kasegema amage'ma nontaza zanku anara nehie.
28 They caused the cry of the poor to come before Him, and He heard the outcry of the afflicted.
Ana zamunte omne vahera zamazeri havizama hazage'zama Anumzamofontega zavi'ma nete'zama, zavi krafama nehazageno'a Anumzamo'a antahi'ne.
29 But when He remains silent, who can condemn Him? When He hides His face, who can see Him? Yet He watches over both man and nation,
Hianagi ana zante'ma Anumzamo'ma nona huno havi avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nosanigeno'a, iza huno Anumzamo'a havi avu'ava nehie? hunora hugahie. Hagi avugosama eri fra'ma nekisanigeno'a, mago vahe'mo'a keno eri forera osugahie. Hianagi Agrake mago'mago vahete'ene ama mopafima me'nea kumatamina kegava hu'ne.
30 that godless men should not rule or lay snares for the people.
Hagi Anumzamoke kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama kva vahe'ma mani'ne'za vahe'ma zamavare'za havi kampima atresnage'za, kumi'ma hu'zanku huno anara nehie.
31 Suppose someone says to God, ‘I have endured my punishment; I will offend no more.
Hagi izaga antahi'nankeno Jopu'a Anumzamofonkura huno, nagrama hu'noa kumi'mofo nona hunka nazeri haviza nehananki, mago'enena kumira osugahue hunora hu'ne?
32 Teach me what I cannot see; if I have done wrong, I will not do it again.’
Nagrama hu'nesnua kumira eri ama hunka nasamio. Hagi nagrama havi navu'navama hu'nesnuana henka'anena anazana osugahue.
33 Should God repay you on your own terms when you have disavowed His? You must choose, not I; so tell me what you know.
Anumzamo'ma Jopugama hugantea zankura kave'nosie. Ana hu'negu kagri'ma kave'nesiaza Anumzamo'a hunantesie hunka kagesa ontahio. Hianagi nagri zana omane'neanki, kagripi antahintahia me'ne. Ana hu'negu menina knare antahi'zanka'a huama hugeta antahi'maneno.
34 Men of understanding will declare to me, and the wise men who hear me will say:
Hagi ama' antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mo'zane, knare antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mo'zama nagrama hua nanekema nentahi'za amanage hu'za nagrikura hazaresine.
35 ‘Job speaks without knowledge; his words lack insight.’
Jopu'a agafa'a omane'nea naneke nehantageno, antahintahia osu neginagi naneke nehie hu'za hazaresine.
36 If only Job were tried to the utmost for answering like a wicked man.
Jopugama kefo nanekema hu'nana zantera, Anumzamo'a tusi'a knaza kamigahie.
37 For he adds rebellion to his sin; he claps his hands among us and multiplies his words against God.”
Jopu'a kumi'ma hu'nea agofetu'ma, mago'ene kumi'ma hu'neana, azante rupro huno Anumzamofona kiza zokago ke hunenteno, tagri'enena keha'nereno, Anumzamofonkura huno fatgo hunora refkoa hunonante huno keharente'ne.
