< Job 33 >

1 Howbeit, Job, I pray thee, hear my speech, and hearken to all my words.
Isu nga ita, Job, agpakaasiak kenka, denggem ti ibalikasko; dumngegka kadagiti amin a sasaok.
2 Behold now, I have opened my mouth, my tongue hath spoken in my mouth.
Kitaem ita, inyungapkon dagiti ngiwatko; nagsaon ti dilak iti ngiwatko.
3 My words shall utter the uprightness of my heart; and that which my lips know they shall speak sincerely.
Iyebkas dagiti sasaok ti kinalinteg ti pusok; ti ammo ti bibigko, ibagada a sipupudno.
4 The spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty given me life.
Inaramidnak ti Espiritu ti Dios; ti anges ti Mannakabalin amin ket inikkannak iti biag.
5 If thou canst, answer thou me, set thy words in order before me, stand forth.
No kabaelam, sungbatannak; isaganam dagiti sasaom iti sangoanak ket tumakderka.
6 Behold, I am toward God even as thou art; I also am formed out of the clay.
Kitaem, agpadata iti imatang ti Dios; nasukogak met manipud iti dadamilien a daga.
7 Behold, my terror shall not make thee afraid, neither shall my pressure be heavy upon thee.
Kitaem, ti pangbutengko ket saannaka a pagbutngen; wenno ti panangtalmegko ket saan a mangpadagsen kenka.
8 Surely thou hast spoken in my hearing, and I have heard the voice of thy words;
Pudno a nagsaoka iti panagdengngegko; nangngegko ti timek dagiti sasaom a mangibagbaga,
9 'I am clean, without transgression, I am innocent, neither is there iniquity in me;
'Nadalusak ken awan ti naglabsingak; awan dakes nga aramidko ken awan ti basolko.
10 Behold, He findeth occasions against me, He counteth me for His enemy;
Kitaem, agsapsapul ti Dios iti gundaway a mangdarup kaniak; ibilbilangnak a kas kabusorna.
11 He putteth my feet in the stocks, He marketh all my paths.'
Kawkawaranna dagiti sakak; sipsiputanna ti amin a dalanko.
12 Behold, I answer thee: In this thou art not right, that God is too great for man;
Kitaem, sungbatankanto: biddut ti panangibagam iti daytoy, ta natantan-ok ti Dios ngem iti tao.
13 Why hast thou striven against Him? seeing that He will not answer any of his words.
Apay a makisuppiatka kenkuana? Saan a masapul nga ipalawagna iti aniaman kadagiti ar-aramidenna.
14 For God speaketh in one way, yea in two, though man perceiveth it not.
Ta agsasao ti Dios iti maminsan— wen, mamindua uray no saan a madlaw ti tao daytoy.
15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
Iti tagtagainep, iti sirmata iti rabii, no narnekanen ti turog dagiti tattao, iti pannakairedep iti pagiddaan—
16 Then He openeth the ears of men, and by their chastisement sealeth the decree,
ket luklukatan ti Dios dagiti lapayag dagiti tattao, ken butbutngenna ida babaen kadagiti pangta,
17 That men may put away their purpose, and that He may hide pride from man;
tapno guyudenna ti tao manipud iti panagbasbasolna, ken iyadayona ti kinatangsit kenkuana.
18 That He may keep back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.
Iyad-adayo ti Dios ti biag ti tao manipud iti abot, ti biagna manipud iti ibaballasiw iti patay.
19 He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and all his bones grow stiff;
Nadusa pay ti tao iti ut-ot iti pagiddaanna, nga addaan iti agtultuloy nga ut-ot kadagiti tulangna,
20 So that his life maketh him to abhor bread, and his soul dainty food.
tapno kagura ti biagna ti taraon, ken kagura ti kararuana dagiti naisangsangayan a taraon.
21 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones corrode to unsightliness.
Umres ti lasagna tapno saanen a makita; dagiti tulangna, a saan idi a makita, ita agparangdan.
22 Yea, his soul draweth near unto the pit, and his life to the destroyers.
Agpayso, umas-asidegen ti kararuana iti abot, ti biagna kadagidiay nga agtarigagay a mangdadael iti daytoy.
23 If there be for him an angel, an intercessor, one among a thousand, to vouch for a man's uprightness;
Ngem no adda anghel nga agbalin a mangibabaet para kenkuana, maysa manipud kadagiti rinibribu nga anghel tapno ipakitana kenkuana ti umno nga aramidenna,
24 Then He is gracious unto him, and saith: 'Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.'
ket no naasi ti anghel kenkuana ket ibagana iti Dios, 'Isalakanmo daytoy a tao iti pannakatnagna iti abot; nakasarakak iti pangsubbot kenkuana,'
25 His flesh is tenderer than a child's; he returneth to the days of his youth;
ket agbalinto a nalaslasbang ti lasagna ngem iti lasag ti ubing; agsubli isuna kadagiti aldaw ti kabanbannuaganna.
26 He prayeth unto God, and He is favourable unto him; so that he seeth His face with joy; and He restoreth unto man his righteousness.
Agkararag isuna iti Dios ket maasinto ti Dios kenkuana, tapno makitkitana ti rupa ti Dios nga addaan iti rag-o. Itedto ti Dios ti balligi iti tao.
27 He cometh before men, and saith: 'I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not.'
Ket agkantanto dayta a tao iti sangoanan dagiti dadduma a tattao ket ibagana, 'Nagbasolak ken sinalungasingko ti pudno, ngem saan a nadusa ti basolko.
28 So He redeemeth his soul from going into the pit, and his life beholdeth the light.
Inispal ti Dios ti kararuak iti pannakatnagna iti abot; agtultuloy a makakita ti biagko iti lawag.'
29 Lo, all these things doth God work, twice, yea thrice, with a man,
Kitaem, ar-aramiden ti Dios amin dagitoy a banbanag iti tao, mamindua, wen, mamitlo pay a daras,
30 To bring back his soul from the pit, that he may be enlightened with the light of the living.
tapno maisubli ti kararuana manipud iti abot, tapno malawlawagan isuna babaen iti silaw ti biag.
31 Mark well, O Job, hearken unto me; hold thy peace, and I will speak.
Ipangagmo Job, ken denggennak; agulimekka ta agsaoak.
32 If thou hast any thing to say, answer me; speak, for I desire to justify thee.
No adda ibagam, sungbatannak; agsaoka, ta kayatko a paneknekan nga addaka iti umno.
33 If not, hearken thou unto me; hold thy peace, and I will teach thee wisdom.
No saan, denggennak ngarud; agulimekka latta, ket isurok kenka ti kinasirib.”
