Job 2
1 And on a day the children of God came and stood before the Lord, and Satan came also among them, and stoode before the Lord.
Gbe bubu gbe la, dziƒodɔlawo va do ɖe Yehowa ŋkume eye Satana hã va do kpli wo ɖe Mawu ƒe ŋkume.
2 Then the Lord sayde vnto Satan, Whence commest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, and sayd, From compassing the earth to and from, and from walking in it.
Yehowa bia Satana be, “Afi ka nètso va do?” Satana ɖo eŋu be, “Metso tsatsa ge le anyigba dzi eye menɔ yiyim, nɔ gbɔgbɔm le edzi.”
3 And the Lord sayd vnto Satan, Hast thou not considered my seruant Iob, how none is like him in the earth? an vpright and iust man, one that feareth God, and escheweth euill? for yet he continueth in his vprightnesse, although thou mouedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.
Tete Yehowa bia Satana be, “Èlé ŋku ɖe nye dɔla Hiob ŋua? Ame aɖeke mele anyigba dzi de enu o, enye ame maɖifɔ kple ame dzɔdzɔe, ame si vɔ̃a Yehowa eye wòtsri vɔ̃. Togbɔ be ède adã menye ɖe eŋu be magblẽ edome esi mewɔ naneke o hã la, egalé eƒe blibodede la me ɖe asi ko.”
4 And Satan answered the Lord, and sayde, Skin for skin, and all that euer a man hath, will he giue for his life.
Satana ɖo eŋu na Yehowa be, “Ŋutilã ɖe ŋutilã teƒe, ekema ame atsɔ nu sia nu si le esi la katã ana ɖe eƒe agbe ta.
5 But stretch now out thine hand, and touch his bones and his flesh, to see if he will not blaspheme thee to thy face.
Do wò asi ɖa eye nàtu nu kple eƒe ŋutilã kple eƒe ƒuwo, ekema nàkpɔe ɖa be mado ɖiŋu na wò le wò ŋutɔ wò ŋkume o mahã?”
6 Then the Lord said vnto Satan, Lo, he is in thine hand, but saue his life.
Yehowa gblɔ na Satana be, “Enyo ŋutɔ. Kpɔ ɖa, ele asiwò me, gake mègaka asi eƒe agbe ya ŋu o.”
7 So Satan departed from the presence of the Lord, and smote Iob with sore boyles, from the sole of his foote vnto his crowne.
Ale Satana dzo le Yehowa ŋkume hekplɔ abi vɔ̃ɖi aɖewo ƒu Hiob, tso eƒe afɔgɔme va se ɖe eƒe dzodome.
8 And he tooke a potsharde to scrape him, and he sate downe among the ashes.
Tete Hiob tsɔ ze kakɛ nɔ ŋuti kum esi wònɔ anyi ɖe afi me.
9 Then said his wife vnto him, Doest thou continue yet in thine vprightnes? Blaspheme God, and dye.
Srɔ̃a va egbɔ biae be, “Ɖe nègalé wò blibodede la me ɖe asi koa? Do ɖiŋu na Mawu ne nàku!”
10 But he said vnto her, Thou speakest like a foolish woman: what? shall we receiue good at the hande of God, and not receiue euill? In all this did not Iob sinne with his lippes.
Hiob ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Èle nu ƒom abe nyɔnu bometsila ene. Ɖe míaxɔ nu nyuiwo ko tso Mawu gbɔ eye menye vɔ̃ hã oa?” Le nu siawo katã me la, Hiob mewɔ nu vɔ̃ le eƒe nuƒoƒo me o.
11 Nowe when Iobs three friends heard of all this euill that was come vpon him, they came euery one from his owne place, to wit, Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they were agreed together to come to lament with him, and to comfort him.
Esi Hiob xɔlɔ̃ etɔ̃awo, Temanitɔ Elifaz, Suhitɔ, Bildad kple Naamatitɔ, Zofar se dzɔgbevɔ̃e siwo katã dzɔ ɖe Hiob dzi la wodze mɔ tso woƒe aƒewo me le ŋkeke si woɖo ɖi la dzi be woaɖafa nɛ eye woafa akɔ nɛ.
12 So when they lift vp their eyes a farre off, they knewe him not: therefore they lift vp their voyces and wept, and euery one of them rent his garment, and sprinkled dust vpon their heads toward the heauen.
Esi wokpɔe le adzɔge la, womete ŋu dze sii o, ale wowo avi gboo kple ɣli, wodze woƒe awu ʋlayawo eye wolɔ ke kɔ ɖe tame.
13 So they sate by him vpon the ground seuen dayes, and seuen nights, and none spake a worde vnto him: for they sawe, that the griefe was very great.
Ale wonɔ anyi ɖe egbɔ le anyigba ŋkeke adre kple zã adre sɔŋ. Ame aɖeke mebia nya aɖekee o elabena wokpɔ ale si wònɔ veve semii.
