Job 7
1 Is there not an appointed time to man vpon earth? and are not his dayes as the dayes of an hyreling?
“Ṣé ìjà kò ha si fún ènìyàn lórí ilẹ̀? Ọjọ́ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú kò ha dàbí ọjọ́ alágbàṣe?
2 As a seruant longeth for the shadowe, and as an hyreling looketh for the ende of his worke,
Bí ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ tí máa ń kánjú bojú wo òjìji, àti bí alágbàṣe ti í kánjú wo ọ̀nà owó iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
3 So haue I had as an inheritance the moneths of vanitie, and painefull nights haue bene appointed vnto me.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a mú mi ní ìbànújẹ́ ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ oṣù, òru ìdáni-lágara ni a sì là sílẹ̀ fún mi.
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.
Nígbà ti mo dùbúlẹ̀, èmi wí pé, ‘Nígbà wo ni èmi ó dìde?’ Tí òru yóò sì kọjá, ó sì tó fún mi láti yí síyìn-ín yí sọ́hùn-ún, títí yóò fi di àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́.
5 My flesh is clothed with wormes and filthinesse of the dust: my skinne is rent, and become horrible.
Kòkòrò àti ògúlùtu erùpẹ̀ ni á fi wọ̀ mi ni aṣọ, awọ ara mi bù, o sì di bíbàjẹ́.
6 My dayes are swifter then a weauers shittle, and they are spent without hope.
“Ọjọ́ mi yára jù ọkọ̀ ìhunṣọ lọ, o sì di lílò ní àìní ìrètí.
7 Remember that my life is but a wind, and that mine eye shall not returne to see pleasure.
Háà! Rántí pé afẹ́fẹ́ ni ẹ̀mí mi; ojú mi kì yóò padà rí rere mọ́.
8 The eye that hath seene me, shall see me no more: thine eyes are vpon me, and I shall be no longer.
Ojú ẹni tí ó rí mi, kì yóò rí mi mọ́; ojú rẹ̀ tẹ̀ mọ́ra mi, èmi kò sí mọ́.
9 As the cloude vanisheth and goeth away, so he that goeth downe to the graue, shall come vp no more. (Sheol h7585)
Bí ìkùùkuu tí i túká, tí í sì fò lọ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹni tí ń lọ sí ipò òkú tí kì yóò padà wa mọ́. (Sheol h7585)
10 He shall returne no more to his house, neither shall his place knowe him any more.
Kì yóò padà sínú ilé rẹ̀ mọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ní ipò rẹ̀ kì yóò mọ̀ ọn mọ́.
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.
“Nítorí náà èmi kì yóò pa ẹnu mi mọ́, èmi yóò máa sọ nínú ìrora ọkàn mi, èmi yóò máa ṣe ìráhùn nínú kíkorò ọkàn mi.
12 Am I a sea or a whalefish, that thou keepest me in warde?
Èmi a máa ṣe Òkun tàbí ẹ̀mí búburú, tí ìwọ fi ń yan olùṣọ́ tì mi?
13 When I say, My couch shall relieue me, and my bed shall bring comfort in my meditation,
Nígbà tí mo wí pé, ibùsùn mi yóò tù mí lára, ìtẹ́ mi yóò mú ara mi fúyẹ́ pẹ̀lú.
14 Then fearest thou me with dreames, and astonishest me with visions.
Nígbà náà ni ìwọ fi àlá da yọ mi lénu bò mi, ìwọ sì fi ìran òru dẹ́rùbà mí.
15 Therefore my soule chuseth rather to be strangled and to die, then to be in my bones.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọkàn mí yàn láti fún pa àti ikú ju kí ń wà láààyè ní ipò tí ara mí wà yìí lọ.
16 I abhorre it, I shall not liue alway: spare me then, for my dayes are but vanitie.
O sú mi, èmi kò le wà títí: jọ̀wọ́ mi jẹ́, nítorí pé asán ni ọjọ́ mi.
17 What is man, that thou doest magnifie him, and that thou settest thine heart vpon him?
“Kí ni ènìyàn tí ìwọ o máa kókìkí rẹ̀? Àti tí ìwọ ìbá fi gbé ọkàn rẹ lé e?
18 And doest visite him euery morning, and tryest him euery moment?
Àti ti ìwọ ó fi máa wá í bẹ̀ ẹ́ wò ni òròòwúrọ̀, ti ìwọ o sì máa dán an wò nígbàkígbà!
19 Howe long will it be yer thou depart from me? thou wilt not let me alone whiles I may swallowe my spettle.
Yóò ti pẹ́ tó kí ìwọ kí ó tó fi mí sílẹ̀ lọ, tí ìwọ o fi mí sílẹ̀ jẹ́ẹ́ títí èmi yóò fi lè dá itọ́ mi mì.
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?
Èmi ti ṣẹ̀, ki ní èmi ó ṣe sí ọ. Ìwọ Olùsójú ènìyàn? Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi fi mí ṣe àmì itasi níwájú rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi sì di ẹrẹ̀ wíwo fún ọ?
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.
Èéṣe tí ìwọ kò sì dárí ìrékọjá mi jìn, kí ìwọ kí ó sì mú àìṣedéédéé mi kúrò? Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí ni èmi ìbá sùn nínú erùpẹ̀, ìwọ ìbá sì wá mi kiri ní òwúrọ̀, èmi kì bá tí sí.”
