< Job 16 >

1 Then Job answered,
Ket simmungbat ni Job ket kinunana,
2 "I have heard many such things. You are all miserable comforters.
“Nakanggegakon kadagiti adu a kakasta a banbanag; nakaay-ay-aykayo amin a mangliwliwa.
3 Shall vain words have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer?
Addanto kadi paggibusan dagiti awan serserbina a sasao? Ania ti parikutmo ta sumungbatka a kas iti daytoy?
4 I also could speak as you do. If your soul were in my soul's place, I could join words together against you, and shake my head at you,
Mabalinko met ti agsao a kas kadakayo, no addakayo iti saadko; Mabalinko nga urnongen ken pagtitiponen dagiti sasao a maibusor kadakayo ken agwingiwingak kadakayo iti pananglais.
5 but I would strengthen you with my mouth. The solace of my lips would relieve you.
O, kasano a pabilgenkayo babaen ti ngiwatko! Kasano a pabang-aren ti panangliwliwa dagiti bibigko ti ladingityo!
6 "Though I speak, my grief is not subsided. Though I forbear, what am I eased?
No agsaoak, saan a mabang-aran ti ladingitko; no isardengko ti agsasao, kasano a matulonganak?
7 But now he has worn me out. You have laid waste all my company.
Ngem ita O Dios, binannognak; binaybay-am amin a pamiliak.
8 You have shriveled me up. This is a witness against me. My leanness rises up against me. It testifies to my face.
Pinagkuretretnak, a maysa a saksi a maibusor kaniak; tumakder ti kinakuttong ti bagik a maibusor kaniak, ken agsaksi daytoy a maibusor iti rupak.
9 He has torn me in his wrath, and persecuted me. He has gnashed on me with his teeth. My adversary sharpens his eyes on me.
Pinirsa-pirsaynak ti Dios iti pungtotna ken indadanesnak; Pinagngarietannak babaen ti ngipenna; pinatadem ti kabusorko dagiti matana kabayatan pirpirsayennak.
10 They have gaped on me with their mouth. They have struck me on the cheek reproachfully. They gather themselves together against me.
Ginuyabandak dagiti tattao; tinungpadak a siuumsi; naguummongda a maibusor kaniak.
11 God delivers me to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked.
Inyawatnak ti Dios kadagiti saan a nadiosan a tattao ken impurruaknak kadagiti ima dagiti nadangkes a tattao.
12 I was at ease, and he broke me apart. Yes, he has taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces. He has also set me up for his target.
Natalnaak idi, ket binuraknak. Wen, binekkelnak ken indumudomnak a napirsa-pirsay; insaadnak pay a kas pagpuntaan.
13 His archers surround me. He splits my kidneys apart, and does not spare. He pours out my gall on the ground.
Palpalawlawandak dagiti pumapanana; tudtudoken ti Dios dagiti bekkelko, ken dinak kinaassian; imbukbokna ti aprok iti rabaw ti daga.
14 He breaks me with breach on breach. He runs on me like a giant.
Burburakenna ti didingko iti paulit-ulit; tumaray isuna nga umay kaniak a kasla maysa a mannakigubat.
15 I have sewed sackcloth on my skin, and have thrust my horn in the dust.
Nangidaitak iti nakirsang a lupot iti rabaw ti kudilko; Intudokko ti sarak iti rabaw iti daga.
16 My face is red with weeping. Deep darkness is on my eyelids.
Nalabaga ti rupak iti panagsangsangit; adda kadagiti kalub ti matak ti aniniwan ni patay
17 Although there is no violence in my hands, and my prayer is pure.
uray no awan ti kinaranggas kadagiti imak, ken nadalus ti kararagko.
18 "Earth, do not cover my blood. Let my cry have no place to rest.
O daga, saanmo nga abbongan ti darak; awan koma ti disso a paginanaan ti asugko.
19 Even now, look, my witness is in heaven. He who vouches for me is on high.
Uray ita, adtoy, ti saksik ket adda iti langit; ti mangikalintegan kaniak ket adda iti ngato.
20 My friends scoff at me. My eyes pour out tears to God,
Uy-uyawendak dagiti gagayyemko, ngem agar-arubos ti lulua dagiti matak iti Dios.
21 that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbor.
Dawatek iti dayta a saksi iti langit nga ikalinteganna daytoy a tao iti Dios a kas ti ar-aramiden ti maysa a tao iti kaarubana!
22 For when a few years have come, I shall go the way from where I shall not return.
Ta no lumabas dagiti sumagmamano a tawtawen, mapanakto iti disso a saanakton a makasubli.
