< Job 11 >

1 Then answered Zophar the Naamathite, and sayde,
Ket simmungbat ni Zofar a Naamita ket kinunana,
2 Should not the multitude of wordes be answered? or should a great talker be iustified?
“Saan kadi a rumbeng a masungbatan ti kastoy nga adu a sasao? Rumbeng kadi a patien daytoy a tao nga adu ti ibagbagana?
3 Should men holde their peace at thy lyes? and when thou mockest others, shall none make thee ashamed?
Pagulimeken kadi ti panagpaspasindayawmo dagiti dadduma? No lalaisem ti panursuromi, awan kadi ti mangpabain kenka?
4 For thou hast sayde, My doctrine is pure, and I am cleane in thine eyes.
Ta ibagbagam ti Dios, 'Nasin-aw ti pammatik, awan ti pakababalawak kadagiti matam.'
5 But, oh that God would speake and open his lippes against thee!
Ngem o, agsao koma ti Dios ket ilukatna dagiti bibigna a maibusor kenka;
6 That he might shewe thee the secretes of wisedome, howe thou hast deserued double, according to right: know therefore that God hath forgotten thee for thine iniquitie.
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 Canst thou by searching finde out God? canst thou finde out ye Almighty to his perfection?
Maawatam kadi ti Dios babaen iti panangsapsapulmo kenkuana? Maawatam kadi a naan-anay ti Mannakabalin amin?
8 The heauens are hie, what canst thou doe? it is deeper then the hell, how canst thou know it? (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 thereof is longer then the earth, and it is broader then the sea.
At-atiddug ti rukodna daytoy ngem ti daga, ken nalawlawa ngem ti baybay.
10 If hee cut off and shut vp, or gather together, who can turne him backe?
No lumabas isuna ken ikulongna ti siasinoman, no ayabanna ti siasinoman iti pangukoman, siasino ngarud ti makalapped kenkuana?
11 For hee knoweth vaine men, and seeth iniquitie, and him that vnderstandeth nothing.
Ta am-ammona dagiti palso a tattao, no makakita isuna iti kinadakes, saanna kadi a madlaw daytoy?
12 Yet vaine man would be wise, though man new borne is like a wilde asse colte.
Ngem awan pannakaawat dagiti maag a tattao; maawatanda daytoy no mangipasngay ti atap nga asno iti maysa a tao.
13 If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him:
Ngem kaspangarigan inaramidmo ti pusom a nalinteg ken intag-aymo dagita imam iti Dios;
14 If iniquitie be in thine hand, put it farre away, and let no wickednesse dwell 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 The truely shalt thou lift vp thy face without spot, and shalt be stable, and shalt not feare.
Ket awan duadua nga itangadmonto ti rupam nga awan ti pagilasinan iti bain; wen, napigsakanto ken saan a mabuteng.
16 But thou shalt forget thy miserie, and remember it as waters that are past.
Malipatamto ti kinakakaasim; malagipmonto laeng daytoy a kasla danum a nagayos.
17 Thine age also shall appeare more cleare then the noone day: thou shalt shine and bee as the morning.
Nalawlawagto ti biagmo ngem iti katengngaan ti aldaw; uray no adda ti kinasipnget, agbalinto daytoy a kasla ti agsapa.
18 And thou shalt bee bolde, because there is hope: and thou shalt digge pittes, and shalt lye downe safely.
Natalgedkanto gapu ta adda ti namnama; wen, natalgedkanto ken aginnanakanto a natalged.
19 For when thou takest thy rest, none shall make thee afraide: yea, many shall make sute vnto thee.
Agiddakanto met a natalged, ket awanto ti pagbutngam, pudno, adunto ti mangbiruk iti pabormo.
20 But the eyes of the wicked shall faile, and their refuge shall perish, and their hope shalbe sorow of minde.
Ngem mapaayto dagiti mata dagiti nadangkes; awanto ti pagtarayanda; ti laeng namnamada ket ti maudi nga anges ti biag.”
