Job 11
1 Then Sophar the Naamathite answered, and said:
Ket simmungbat ni Zofar a Naamita ket kinunana,
2 Shall not he that speaketh much, hear also? or shall a man full of talk be justified?
“Saan kadi a rumbeng a masungbatan ti kastoy nga adu a sasao? Rumbeng kadi a patien daytoy a tao nga adu ti ibagbagana?
3 Shall men hold their peace to thee only? and when thou hast mocked others, shall no man confute thee?
Pagulimeken kadi ti panagpaspasindayawmo dagiti dadduma? No lalaisem ti panursuromi, awan kadi ti mangpabain kenka?
4 For thou hast said: My word is pure, and I am clean in thy sight.
Ta ibagbagam ti Dios, 'Nasin-aw ti pammatik, awan ti pakababalawak kadagiti matam.'
5 And I wish that God would speak with thee, and would open his lips to thee,
Ngem o, agsao koma ti Dios ket ilukatna dagiti bibigna a maibusor kenka;
6 That he might shew thee the secrets of wisdom, and that his law is manifold, and thou mightest understand that he exacteth much less of thee, than thy iniquity deserveth.
nga ipakitana kenka dagiti palimed ti kinasirib! Ta naindaklan isuna iti pannakaawat. Ammoem ngarud a basbassit ti dawdawaten ti Dios kenka ngem iti rumbeng kadagiti kinadakesmo.
7 Peradventure thou wilt comprehend the steps of God, and wilt find out the Almighty perfectly?
Maawatam kadi ti Dios babaen iti panangsapsapulmo kenkuana? Maawatam kadi a naan-anay ti Mannakabalin amin?
8 He is higher than heaven, and what wilt thou do? he is deeper than hell, and how wilt thou know? (Sheol h7585)
Ti panangammo iti Dios a naan-anay ket nangato a kas kangato ti langit; ania ti maaramidam? Naun-uneg ngem sheol; ania ti maammoam? (Sheol h7585)
9 The measure of him is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
At-atiddug ti rukodna daytoy ngem ti daga, ken nalawlawa ngem ti baybay.
10 If he shall overturn all things, or shall press them together, who shall contradict him?
No lumabas isuna ken ikulongna ti siasinoman, no ayabanna ti siasinoman iti pangukoman, siasino ngarud ti makalapped kenkuana?
11 For he knoweth the vanity of men, and when he seeth iniquity, doth he not consider it?
Ta am-ammona dagiti palso a tattao, no makakita isuna iti kinadakes, saanna kadi a madlaw daytoy?
12 A vain man is lifted up into pride, and thinketh himself born free like a wild ass’s colt.
Ngem awan pannakaawat dagiti maag a tattao; maawatanda daytoy no mangipasngay ti atap nga asno iti maysa a tao.
13 Rut thou hast hardened thy heart, and hast spread thy hands to him.
Ngem kaspangarigan inaramidmo ti pusom a nalinteg ken intag-aymo dagita imam iti Dios;
14 If thou wilt put away from thee the iniquity that is in thy hand, and lot not injustice remain in thy tabernacle:
kaspangarigan ta adda dita imam ti kinadakes, ngem inyadayom daytoy kenka, ket saanmo nga impalubos nga agnaed ti kinasaan a nalinteg kadagiti toldam.
15 Then mayst thou lift up thy face without spot, and thou shalt be steadfast, and shalt not fear.
Ket awan duadua nga itangadmonto ti rupam nga awan ti pagilasinan iti bain; wen, napigsakanto ken saan a mabuteng.
16 Thou shalt also forget misery, and remember it only as waters that are passed away.
Malipatamto ti kinakakaasim; malagipmonto laeng daytoy a kasla danum a nagayos.
17 And brightness like that of the noonday, shall arise to thee at evening: and when thou shalt think thyself consumed, thou shalt rise as the day star.
Nalawlawagto ti biagmo ngem iti katengngaan ti aldaw; uray no adda ti kinasipnget, agbalinto daytoy a kasla ti agsapa.
18 And thou shalt have confidence, hope being set before thee, and being buried thou shalt sleep secure.
Natalgedkanto gapu ta adda ti namnama; wen, natalgedkanto ken aginnanakanto a natalged.
19 Thou shalt rest, and there shall be none to make thee afraid: and many shall entreat thy face.
Agiddakanto met a natalged, ket awanto ti pagbutngam, pudno, adunto ti mangbiruk iti pabormo.
20 But the eyes of the wicked shall decay, and the way to escape shall fail them, and their hope the abomination of the soul.
Ngem mapaayto dagiti mata dagiti nadangkes; awanto ti pagtarayanda; ti laeng namnamada ket ti maudi nga anges ti biag.”
