Job 1
1 There was a man in the lande of Vz called Iob, and this man was an vpright and iust man, one that feared God, and eschewed euill.
Teo t’indaty an-tane Otse añe, Iobe ty tahina’e, ondaty vañoñe naho vantañe, mpañeveñe aman’ Añahare, mpalain-karatiañe.
2 And he had seue sonnes, and three daughters.
Nisamake fito lahy re, telo ty anak’ampela’e.
3 His substance also was seuen thousande sheepe, and three thousand camels, and fiue hundreth yoke of oxen, and fiue hundreth shee asses, and his family was very great, so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the East.
I vara’ey: fito arivo ty mpirai-lia’e naho telo arivo ty rameva’e; liman-jato ty katraka’e mpitrao-baoñe naho borìke liman-jato vaho nitozantozañe ty añ’anjomba’e ao. Ie t’indaty ni-lohà’ ze hene nta-tiñanañe.
4 And his sonnes went and banketted in their houses, euery one his day, and sent, and called their three sisters to eate and to drinke with them.
Lili’ i ana-dahi’e rey ty nanao takataka añ’anjomba’e, sindre ami’ty andro’e vaho nampañitrike naho nañambara amy rahavave’ iareo telo rey ty hitrao-pikama naho rano ama’e.
5 And when the dayes of their banketting were gone about, Iob sent, and sanctified them, and rose vp early in the morning, and offred burnt offrings according to the nomber of them all. For Iob thought, It may be that my sonnes haue sinned, and blasphemed God in their hearts: thus did Iob euery day.
Aa ie nimodo ty san-tsabadida’ iareo le nitokave’ Iobe vaho nefera’e. Nañaleñalen-dre nañenga soroñe ty ami’ty ia’iareo iaby, fa hoe t’Iobe, Ke nandilatse o anakoo vaho niteratera an’ Andrianañahare an-tro’e ao. Izay ty nilili’ Iobe.
6 Nowe on a day when the children of God came and stoode before the Lord, Satan came also among them.
Nitsatok’ ami’ty andro niheova’ o anak’ Andrianañahareo añatrefa’ Iehovà te nivotrak’ am’ iereo ka i mpañinjey.
7 Then the Lord sayde vnto Satan, Whence commest thou? And Satan answered the Lord, saying, From compassing the earth to and from, and from walking in it.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy mpañinjey: Hirik’ aia v’iheo? Le hoe ty natoi’ i mpañinjey am’ Iehovà, Nimbeo’ mbeo an-tane ey iraho, nijelanjelañe ama’e.
8 And the Lord saide 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?
Aa hoe t’Iehovà amy mpañinjey: Hinarahara’o hao t’Iobe mpitoroko? Te tsitantane ty mañirinkiriñe aze; vañon-dre naho ondaty vantañe mpañeveñe aman’ Añahare vaho malain-ty raty.
9 Then Satan answered the Lord, and sayde, Doeth Iob feare God for nought?
Nanoiñe Iehovà ami’ty hoe i mpañinjey: Aa vaho an-tsi-vente’e hao ty añeveña’ Iobe aman’ Añahare?
10 Hast thou not made an hedge about him and about his house, and about all that he hath on euery side? thou hast blessed the worke of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
Tsy Ihe hao ty nañarikatok’ aze am-pahetse, ie naho ty anjomba’e naho ze hene ama’e miariseho aze? Nitahie’o ty satam-pità’e vaho manitsike i taney ty vara’e.
11 But stretch out now thine hand and touch all that he hath, to see if he will not blaspheme thee to thy face.
Ahitio ty fità’o henaneo, paoho o fanaña’e iabio, le toe ho teraterae’e añatrefan-dahara’o.
12 Then the Lord sayde vnto Satan, Lo, all that he hath is in thine hand: onely vpon himselfe shalt thou not stretch out thine hand. So Satan departed from the presence of the Lord.
Aa hoe t’Iehovà amy mpañinjey, Ingo, fa ambane fehe’o eo o fanaña’e iabio, fe adono tsy hahiti’o ama’e ty taña’o. Aa le nisitak’ ami’ty fiatrefa’ Iehovà i mpañinjey.
13 And on a day, when his sonnes and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brothers house,
Ie te indraik’ andro, nanao takataka naho ninon-divay añ’ anjomba’ i zoke-lahi’ey i ana’e rey,
14 There came a messenger vnto Iob, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding in their places,
le ingo ty nihitrike mb’am’ Iobe mb’eo nanao ty hoe: Nitari-dasary o katrakao le nihinañe marine eo o borìkeo,
15 And the Shabeans came violently, and tooke them: yea, they haue slayne the seruants with the edge of the sworde: but I onely am escaped alone to tell thee.
le nañotroke mb’eo o nte-Sabeo naho tinonga’ iereo. Zinama’ iareo am-pibara o mpiarakeo vaho izaho avao ty nahabotitsike hivolañe ama’o!
16 And whiles he was yet speaking, another came, and sayde, The fire of God is fallen from the heauen, and hath burnt vp the sheepe and the seruants, and deuoured them: but I onely am escaped alone to tell thee.
Ie mbe nitalily, avy ka ty raike nanao ty hoe: Nidoiñe boak’ an-dikerañe ey ty afon’ Añahare namorototo o lia raikeo naho o mpiarakeo vaho nimongoreñe, izaho avao ty nivoratsake hitalily ama’o.
17 And whiles he was yet speaking, another came, and sayd, The Caldeans set on three bands, and fell vpon the camels, and haue taken them, and haue slayne the seruantes with the edge of the sworde: but I onely am escaped alone to tell thee.
Ie mbe nisaontsy, nimb’eo ka ty raike nanao ty hoe: Nizara ho firimboñañe telo o nte-Kaldeao, le hinao’ iareo o rameva iabio. Fonga binaibai’ iareo ami’ty meso-lava o mpiarakeo le izaho avao ty nipoliotse hitaroñ’ ama’o.
18 And whiles he was yet speaking, came an other, and sayd, Thy sonnes, and thy daughters were eating, and drinking wine in their eldest brothers house,
Ie mbe nisaontsy, le nimb’eo ka ty raike ninday ty hoe: Nikama naho ninon-divay añ’anjomba’ i zoke-lahi’eo o ana-dahi’o naho anak’ ampela’oo,
19 And behold, there came a great wind from beyonde the wildernesse, and smote the foure corners of the house, which fel vpon the children, and they are dead, and I onely am escaped alone to tell thee.
le ingo niavy ty tio-bey boak’ am-patrambey añe, nikabokaboke i anjombay ami’ty hotso’e efatse naho nihotrak’ am’ondaty tora’eo; fonga nihomake. Izaho avao ty nirombake hitalily ama’o.
20 Then Iob arose, and rent his garment, and shaued his head, and fel downe vpon the ground, and worshipped,
Niongak’ amy zao t’Iobe nandriatse ty saro’e naho nañaratse ty añambone’e naho nibabok’ an-tane eo nisoloho,
21 And sayd, Naked came I out of my mothers wombe, and naked shall I returne thither: the Lord hath giuen, and the Lord hath taken it: blessed be the Name of the Lord.
vaho hoe re: Niboridan-draho te niboak’ an-kovin-dreneko ao, le hijangeajangeañe ka t’ie himpoliako ao. Nanolotse t’Iehovà, vaho nañombotse t’Iehovà; bangoeñe ty tahina’ Iehovà.
22 In all this did not Iob sinne, nor charge God foolishly.
Ie amy ze iaby, tsy nandilatse t’Iobe, tsy nanisý raha tsy mañeva aman’ Andrianañahare.
