Job 7
1 Is there not an appointed time to man vpon earth? and are not his dayes as the dayes of an hyreling?
Tsy mahafantatra izay ratsy va ny vavako? Tsy mpiantafika va ny zanak’ olombelona etỳ ambonin’ ny tany? Ary tsy tahaka ny andron’ ny mpikarama va ny androny?
2 As a seruant longeth for the shadowe, and as an hyreling looketh for the ende of his worke,
Toy ny mpanompo maniry alokaloka, ary toy ny mpikarama miandry ny karaman’ ny asany,
3 So haue I had as an inheritance the moneths of vanitie, and painefull nights haue bene appointed vnto me.
Dia toy izany no anaovana ahy hahita volana mampahory, ary alina mahadisadisa no tendrena ho ahy.
4 If I layed me downe, I sayde, When shall I arise? and measuring the euening I am euen full with tossing to and from vnto the dawning of the day.
Raha vao mandry aho, dia mieritreritra hoe: Rahoviana re no hifoha aho? Fa mihalava izany ny alina, ary mivadibadika indrindra aho mandra-pahazavan’ ny andro.
5 My flesh is clothed with wormes and filthinesse of the dust: my skinne is rent, and become horrible.
Ny nofoko mitafy olitra sy baingan-tany; efa maina ny hoditro, kanjo mitsiranorano indray.
6 My dayes are swifter then a weauers shittle, and they are spent without hope.
Faingana noho ny famahanan-tenona ny androko ka lany tsy misy fanantenana.
7 Remember that my life is but a wind, and that mine eye shall not returne to see pleasure.
Tsarovy fa rivotra ny aiko: ary tsy hahita soa intsony ny masoko.
8 The eye that hath seene me, shall see me no more: thine eyes are vpon me, and I shall be no longer.
Tsy hahita ahy intsony ny mason’ izay mijery ahy: Ny masonao hizaha ahy, fa tsy ho ao aho.
9 As the cloude vanisheth and goeth away, so he that goeth downe to the graue, shall come vp no more. (Sheol h7585)
Tahaka ny rahona misava ka levona, dia tahaka izany koa, izay midìna any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita tsy mba hiakatra intsony; (Sheol h7585)
10 He shall returne no more to his house, neither shall his place knowe him any more.
Tsy hiverina any an-tranony intsony izy. Ary tsy hahalala azy intsony ny fonenany.
11 Therefore I will not spare my mouth, but will speake in the trouble of my spirite, and muse in the bitternesse of my minde.
Ary izaho dia tsy hamehy vava, Fa hiteny noho ny fahorian’ ny fanahiko sy hitaraina noho ny fangidian’ ny aiko.
12 Am I a sea or a whalefish, that thou keepest me in warde?
Ranomasina va aho, na trozona, No dia asianao fiambenana?
13 When I say, My couch shall relieue me, and my bed shall bring comfort in my meditation,
Raha hoy izaho: Hampionona ahy ny farafarako, hampitony ny fitarainako ny fandriako.
14 Then fearest thou me with dreames, and astonishest me with visions.
Dia mampitahotra ahy amin’ ny nofy Hianao ary mampihorohoro ahy amin’ ny tsindrimandry;
15 Therefore my soule chuseth rather to be strangled and to die, then to be in my bones.
Ka dia aleon’ ny fanahiko ny hokendaina, eny, aleoko ny fahafatesana aza toy izay izato fitofezako izato;
16 I abhorre it, I shall not liue alway: spare me then, for my dayes are but vanitie.
Maharikoriko ahy izao, tsy tiako ny ho velona ela; Ilaozy miala aho, fa fofona foana ny androko.
17 What is man, that thou doest magnifie him, and that thou settest thine heart vpon him?
Inona moa ny zanak’ olombelona, no ekenao ho lehibe, ka ampandinihinao azy ny fonao,
18 And doest visite him euery morning, and tryest him euery moment?
Sady fantarinao isa-maraina izy; sy izahanao toetra isaky ny indray mipi-maso?
19 Howe long will it be yer thou depart from me? thou wilt not let me alone whiles I may swallowe my spettle.
Mandra-pahoviana re vao hihodina tsy hijery ahy Hianao, ka mba hiala amiko mandra-piteliko rora?
20 I haue sinned, what shall I do vnto thee? O thou preseruer of me, why hast thou set me as a marke against thee, so that I am a burden vnto my selfe?
Na dia ho nanota aza aho, nampaninona Anao moa izany, ry Mpandinika ny olombelona? Nahoana no dia nataonao fikendry aho, ka efa tonga enta-mavesatra amiko aho?
21 And why doest thou not pardon my trespasse? and take away mine iniquitie? for nowe shall I sleepe in the dust, and if thou seekest me in the morning, I shall not be found.
Ary nahoana no tsy mamela ny fahadisoako sy manaisotra ny heloko Hianao? Fa izao dia efa handry any amin’ ny vovoka aho; ary hitady ahy fatratra Hianao, fa tsy ho atỳ intsony aho.
