< Job 2 >

1 And it came to pass, when on a certain day the sons of God came, and stood before the Lord, and Satan came among them, and stood in his sight,
Ket napasamak manen nga iti aldaw idi napan dagiti annak a lallaki ti Dios tapno iparangda dagiti bagbagida iti sangoanan ni Yahweh, simmurot met ni Satanas kadakuada tapno iparangna ti bagina iti sangoanan ni Yahweh.
2 That the Lord said to Satan: Whence comest thou? And he answered and said: I have gone round about the earth, and walked through it.
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Satanas, “Sadino ti naggapuam?” Simmungbat ni Satanas kenni Yahweh ket kinunana, “Manipud iti panagsursursor iti rabaw ti daga, ken manipud iti panagpagnapagna nga agsubli-subli iti rabaw daytoy.”
3 And the Lord said to Satan: Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a man simple, and upright, and fearing God, and avoiding evil, and still keeping his innocence? But thou hast moved me against him, that I should afflict him without cause.
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Satanas, “Nakitam kadi ni Job nga adipenko? Ta awan iti kas kenkuana idiay daga, awan pakababalawanna ken nalinteg a tao, addaan iti panagbuteng iti Dios ken taltallikudanna ti kinadakes. Salsalimetmetanna pay laeng ti kinapudnona, uray no ginuyugoynak nga agtignay a maibusor kenkuana, tapno dadaelek isuna nga awan gapgapuna.”
4 And Satan answered, and said: Skin for skin, and all that a man hath he will give for his life:
Simmungbat ni Satanas kenni Yahweh ket kinunana, “Kudil iti kudil, pudno; itedto ti tao iti amin nga adda kenkuana para iti biagna,
5 But put forth thy hand, and touch his bone and his flesh, and then thou shalt gee that he will bless thee to thy face.
Ngem iyunnatmo ta imam ita ket sagidem dagiti tulangna ken ti bagina, ket iparupananto kenka ti panangilunodna kenka.”
6 And the Lord said to Satan: Behold be is in thy hand, but yet save his life.
Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Satanas, “Kitaem, adda isuna kadagita imam; saanmo laeng nga al-alaen ti biagna.”
7 So Satan went forth from the presence Of the Lord, and struck Job with a very grievous ulcer, from the sole of the foot even to the top of his head:
Pimmanaw ngarud ni Satanas manipud iti sangoanan ni Yahweh ket pinarigatna ni Job babaen kadagiti nakaro a litteg manipud iti dapanna agingga iti rabaw ti ulona.
8 And he took a potsherd and scraped the corrupt matter, sitting on a dunghill.
Nangala ni Job iti buong ti banga nga inkarusna iti bagina, ken nagtugaw isuna kadigiti dapo.
9 And his wife said to him: Dost thou still continue in thy simplicity? bless God and die.
Ket kinuna ti asawana kenkuana, “Salimetmetam pay kadi ti kinapudnom? Ilunodmo ti Dios ket mataykan.”
10 And he said to her: Thou hast; spoken like one of the foolish women: if we have received good things at the hand of God, why should we not receive evil? In all these things Job did not sin with his lips.
Ngem kinunana kenkuana, “Agsasaoka a kas iti maag a babai. Pudno kadi a panpanunotem a nasken nga umawattayo iti nasayaat iti ima ti Dios ket saan iti dakes?” Iti amin daytoy a banag, saan a nagbasol Job babaen kadagiti bibigna.
11 Now when Job’s three friends heard all the evil that had befallen him, they came every one from his own place, Alphas the Themanite, and Baldad the Suhite, and Sophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment to come together and visit him, and comfort him.
Ita, idi nangngeg dagiti tallo a gagayyem ni Job ti amin a dakes a dimteng kenkuana, naggapu ti tunggal maysa kadakuada iti bukodda a lugar: Ni Elifaz a Temanita, ni Bildad a Shuhita, ken ni Zofar a Naamatita. Nangitudingda iti tiempo a mapan makipagladingit kenkuana ken tapno liwliwaenda isuna.
12 And when they had lifted up their eyes afar off, they knew him not, and crying out they wept, and rending their garments they sprinkled dust upon their heads towards heaven.
Idi intannawagda dagiti matada iti adayo pay bassit, dandani saanda a mabigbig isuna; nagpukkawda ken nagsangitda; rinay-ab ti tunggal maysa ti kagayna ken nagipuruakda iti tapok iti angin ken iti uloda.
13 And they sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no man spoke to him a word: for they saw that his grief was very great.
Nakitugawda ngarud kenkuana iti daga iti pito nga aldaw ken pito a rabii, ken awan ti nakisasao kenkuana, gapu ta nakitada a nakaro unay ti panagladingitna.
