Job 24
1 But why have the seasons been hidden from the Lord,
Nahoana no tsy misy fotoan’ andro voatendrin’ ny Tsitoha, ary nahoana no tsy hitan’ ny mahalala Azy izany androny Izany?
2 while the ungodly have passed over the bound, carrying off the flock with the shepherd?
Misy mamindra fari-tany sy mangalatra omby aman’ ondry sady miandry azy.
3 They have led away, the ass of the fatherless, and taken the widow's ox for a pledge.
Mandroaka ny borikin’ ny kamboty izy, ary maka ny ombin’ ny mpitondratena ho tsatòka.
4 They have turned aside the weak from the right way: and the meek of the earth have hidden themselves together.
Manosika ny mahantra hiala amin’ ny lalana izy, ka dia miery azy avokoa ny malahelo amin’ ny tany.
5 And they have departed like asses in the field, having gone forth on my account according to their own order: his bread is sweet to [his] little ones.
Indro, tahaka ny fivoaky ny boriki-dia any an-efitra no fivoak’ ireny ho amin’ ny asany hiremby; Ny tani-hay no ahazoany hanina ho an’ ny zanany.
6 They have reaped a field that was not their own before the time: the poor have laboured in the vineyards of the ungodly without pay and without food.
Any an-tsaha izy maka vilona sy mitsimpontsimpona ny voaloboky ny ratsy fanahy.
7 They have caused many naked to sleep without clothes, and they have taken away the covering of their body.
Mandry mitanjaka amin’ ny alina izy, satria tsy manan-damba, ka dia tsy manana firakotra amin’ ny hatsiaka;
8 They are wet with the drops of the mountains: they have embraced the rock, because they had no shelter.
Kotsan’ ny ranonoram-baratra any an-tendrombohitra izy, ka mitampisaka amin’ ny vatolampy, fa tsy manam-pialofana.
9 They have snatched the fatherless from the breast, and have afflicted the outcast.
Misarika ny kamboty eo am-pinonoana izy ary maka tsatòka amin’ ny ory.
10 And they have wrongfully caused [others] to sleep without clothing, and taken away the morsel of the hungry.
Mandeha mitsaitsaika ireo, fa mitanjaka tsy manan-kitafy, ary noana eo am-pitondrana ny amboaram-bary.
11 They have unrighteously laid wait in narrow places, and have not known the righteous way.
Manao diloilo eo anatin’ ny tambohon’ ny mpampahory azy izy; Ary manosihosy ny famiazam-boaloboka izy, nefa mangetaheta ihany.
12 Who have cast forth [the] poor from the city and their own houses, and the soul of the children has groaned aloud.
Mitrona ny lehilahy ao an-tanana, ary mitaraina ny fanahin’ ny voalefona; Nefa tsy ahoan’ Andriamanitra akory ny ratsy atao.
13 Why then has he not visited these? forasmuch as they were upon the earth, and took no notice, and they knew not the way of righteousness, neither have they walked in their [appointed] paths?
Ireny no mpikomy amin’ ny mazava; Tsy mba mihevitra ny lalany izy, na mitoetra eo amin’ ny alehany.
14 But having known their works, he delivered them into darkness: and in the night one will be as a thief:
Raha vao mangiran-dratsy, dia mifoha ny mpamono olona; Mamono ny ory sy ny malahelo izy, ary nony alina, dia tahaka ny mpangalatra.
15 and the eye of the adulterer has watched [for] the darkness, saying, Eye shall not perceive me, and he puts a covering on his face.
Ny mason’ ny mpijangajanga miandry ny maizimaizina, ka hoy izy: Tsy misy hahalala ahy ka dia manao very maso izy.
16 In darkness he digs through houses: by day they conceal themselves securely: they know not the light.
Misy manamy trano nony maizina; Nefa nony antoandro dia miery izy; Tsy mahalala ny mazava izy;
17 For the morning is to them all [as] the shadow of death, for [each] will be conscious of the terror of the shadow of death.
Fa ny aizim-pito no marainan’ ireo rehetra ireo; Satria efa mahazatra azy ny fampahatahoran’ ny aizim-pito izy.
18 He is swift on the face of the water: let his portion be cursed on the earth; and let their plants be laid bare.
Mitsinkafona paohin’ ny rano izy; Voaozona ny anjarany eo amin’ ny tany; Tsy mivily ho amin’ ny lalana mankeny amin’ ny tanim-boaloboka izy.
19 [Let them be] withered upon the earth; for they have plundered the sheaves of the fatherless. (Sheol h7585)
Toy ny andevonan’ ny maina sy ny mafana ny ranom-panala no andevonan’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita ny mpanota. (Sheol h7585)
20 Then is his sin brought to remembrance, and he vanishes like a vapour of dew: but let what he has done be recompensed to him, and let every unrighteous one be crushed like rotten wood.
Manadino azy ny vohoka; manjary hanim-py ho an’ ny olitra izy ka tsy tsarovana intsony; Ary tapaka tahaka ny hazo ny ratsy fanahy,
21 For he has not treated the barren woman well, and has had no pity on a feeble woman.
Dia ilay nandroba ny momba izay tsy niteraka ary tsy nanisy soa ny mpitondratena.
22 And in wrath he has overthrown the helpless: therefore when he has arisen, [a man] will not feel secure of his own life.
Kanefa halavain’ Andriamanitra amin’ ny heriny ny andron’ ny olo-mahery; Mitsangana indray ireo, na dia tsy nanampo izay ho velona intsony aza.
23 When he has fallen sick, let him not hope to recover: but let him perish by disease.
Ataony mandry fahizay sy tsara tohana izy, sady tsinjoviny mandrakariva ny lalany.
24 For his exaltation has hurt many; but he has withered as mallows in the heat, or as an ear of corn falling off of itself from the stalk.
Nasandratra izy, kanjo vetivety dia tsy ao intsony, dia mihalevona izy ka otazana tahaka ny olona rehetra, ary tangosana tahaka ny salohim-bary.
25 But if not, who is he that says I speak falsely, and will make my words of no account?
Raha tsy izany, dia aoka hisy hamaky lainga ahy ka hampiseho ny teniko ho tsinontsinona.
