Job 24
1 “For this reason from the Mighty One Times have not been hidden, And those knowing Him have not seen His days.
“Angʼo momiyo Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ok oketo odiechieng ngʼado bura mondo ongʼere? Angʼo momiyo joma ongʼeyo geno odiechiengno to ok ginyal nene?
2 They reach the borders, They have taken a drove away violently, Indeed, they do evil.
Ji ma timbegi richo ketho kiewo; kendo gikwayo jamni ma gisekwalo.
3 They lead away the donkey of the fatherless, They take in pledge the ox of the widow,
Gikwalo punda nyathi kich kendo gikawo rwadh pur achiel kende mar dhako ma chwore otho ka gir singo.
4 They turn aside the needy from the way, Together have hid the poor of the earth.
Gimono jochan yudo adiera kendo gimiyo jomodhier ringo pondo.
5 Behold, wild donkeys in a wilderness, They have gone out about their work, Seeking early for prey, A mixture for himself—food for young ones.
Joma odhier tiyo matek kamanyo chiemo e thim, mana ka punda; nikech onge kama ginyalo yudoe chiemo ni nyithindgi.
6 They reap his provender in a field, And they glean the vineyard of the wicked.
Gichoko chiemb jamni kendo gihulo mzabibu e puothe joricho.
7 They cause the naked to lodge without clothing. And there is no covering in the cold.
Ginindo duk gotieno nikech gionge lewni; gionge gimoro amora ma ginyalo umorego ka koyo ngʼich.
8 From the inundation of hills they are wet, And without a refuge—have embraced a rock.
Kodh ajiki mag gode olwoko dendgi kendo gitwere e lwendni nikech gionge kuonde dak.
9 They take away violently The orphan from the breast, And they lay a pledge on the poor.
Nyathi maonge gi wuon iyudho oko e thuno; nyathi jadhier ma pod kwar imako kar gowi.
10 Naked, they have gone without clothing, And hungry—have taken away a sheaf.
Giwuotho duk e gwengʼ nikech gionge lewni; gitingʼo ne ji chiemo to gin to kech negogi.
11 They make oil between their walls, They have trodden winepresses, and thirst.
Ji chunogi gitoyo zeituni kuonde ma gin ema gikunyo, kendo gibiyo olemb mzabibu to gin riyo negogi.
12 Men groan because of enmity, And the soul of pierced ones cries, And God does not give praise.
Chur mar joma tho ochomo polo koa e dala maduongʼ kendo chunje joma ohinyore ywagore ka dwaro kony, to Nyasaye ok okum joma hinyogi.
13 They have been those rebelling against light, They have not discerned His ways, Nor abided in His paths.
“Nitie jomoko mangʼanyo ne ler, ma ok ongʼeyo yore ler, kata ma ok dwar ler.
14 The murderer rises at the light, He slays the poor and needy, And in the night he is as a thief.
Ka ler mar odiechiengʼ rumo aruma nii, to janek aa malo kendo onego jochan gi jodhier; otimo kamano gotieno kolidho ka jakuo.
15 And the eye of an adulterer Has observed the twilight, Saying, No eye beholds me. And he puts the face in secret.
Wangʼ jachode bende rito mondo piny oimre; oparo e chunye niya, ‘Onge ngʼat ma biro nena,’ kendo opando wangʼe mondo kik ngʼeye.
16 He has dug in the darkness—houses; By day they shut themselves up, They have not known light.
Jokuo turo udi gotieno, to kochopo odiechiengʼ to gipondo; nimar ok gidwar neno ler.
17 When together, morning [is] death-shade to them, When he discerns the terrors of death-shade.
Giduto mudho mandiwa chalnegi okinyi; giloso osiep gi masiche mayudore e mudho mandiwa.
18 He [is] light on the face of the waters, Their portion is vilified in the earth, He does not turn the way of vineyards.
“To kata kamano gichalo buoyo moyienyo ewi pi malo; lopegi okwongʼ, maonge ngʼama rawo e puothegi mag mzabibu mi yudie olemo.
Joricho lal nono e piny ma ji odakie, mana kaka pe leny ka chiengʼ rieny e ndalo oro. (Sheol h7585)
20 The womb forgets him, The worm sweetens [on] him, He is remembered no more, And wickedness is broken as a tree.
Onge ngʼama paro joricho kendo wich wil kodgi; mi kudni chamgi kendo itiekogi chuth.
21 Treating evil the barren [who] does not bear, And he does no good [to] the widow,
Gisando mon ma chwogi otho kendo ok gikech mon maonge nyithindo.
22 And [God] has drawn the mighty by His power, He rises, and none believes in life.
To Nyasaye tieko joma roteke gi tekone; kata obedo ni gin joma niginyalo to gionge gi ratiro ni gibiro bedo mangima.
23 He gives to him confidence, and he is supported, And His eyes [are] on their ways.
Onyalo weyogi mi gipar ni gin gi kwe, to wangʼe osiko rangogi kinde duto.
24 They were high [for] a little, and they are not, And they have been brought low. They are shut up as all [others], And cut off as the head of an ear of grain.
Gineno maber kuom kinde matin kende to bangʼe gilal nono kadiemo wangʼ, kendo ichokogi mi giner ka buya mopudhi; kendo ingʼadogi oko mana kaka ingʼado wiye cham.
25 And if not now, who proves me a liar, And makes my word of nothing?”
“Ka gik ma awachogo miriambo, to en ngʼa manyalo nyiso maler ni ariambo, ma dimi wechega bed gik manono?”
